east Philly has this part where the el runs alongside a highway and even though the el is a sluggish rickety dumpster fire it’s still fun to look down and pepe smirk at all the crying carjacks stuck in a standstill

“go 'way! baitin gamin!”

love that a lot of their ads were just “be fucking weird and surreal, then people will look, and BAM! PS2 logo.”

Never actually seen any besides the cream cheese at Trader Joe’s. Going to keep an eye out now

Certain cheese (mainly hard cheese) is theoretically zero lactose due to fermentation using it up, but I find that even most hard cheeses give me a reaction.

I have a history of psychosomatic reactions to food, though. For example I couldn’t eat beef, chicken, or pork for years after several food poisoning incidents in quick succession. Even though I knew the reaction was all in my head, the physical effects still happened. Super frustrating.

However I have had 2 incidents where I had GI symptoms occur after eating something containing dairy where I didn’t know until I looked at the ingredients list, so I know it’s not 100% in my head.

To my fellow LI sufferers I encourage you to experiment with hard cheeses, as there’s plenty of people who have documented their success with those! :)

(Just do it on a day where you have a bathroom always available, lol.)

this is why at the end of the day I hope we invent Star Trek replicators

and allergy cures

😬 now that’s a rough time. Perfect Day does disclaim milk allergenic on their website but I have no idea if they require their clients to include that on their consumer product packaging.

Surprising (and frustrating) that they didn’t use a properly deodorized grade of oil. Do you mind sharing which products you tried? I’m curious

The foodtech will use yeast as hosts to initially produce casein and whey protein, two of the main proteins found in milk.

Bioreacted casein would be a HUGE leap for cow-free dairy. I remember when Perfect Day started up they were having too much trouble producing casein, so their products couldn’t be used to make stringy or melty cheese.

As a former cheese addict who developed severe lactose intolerance, I’ll just be waiting here for the synthetic cheese. (Please. I miss pain-free cheese so much 😭)

Never considered what they’re made of, but paper makes sense since it rips.

Now I’m thinking, if you could figure out a way to dye the paper all the way through, if someone manages to rip off the top layer of paper, the remaining paper residue would still be readable 😈

best i can do is roll of removal-resistant “I PARK LIKE A FUCKING ASSHOLE” stickers

as someone who has spent time living in Philly what were they THINKING lmfao

ooh me next

im laughing for real right now

me absolutely losing my shit in the retirement home and getting the aides called on me:

I loved Decay so much. Some of the puzzles kinda felt like a proto-Portal 2-co-op

Edit: Found one!!

Drawback is it doesn’t seem to support adding settings at the end of the string (e.g. &category_general=on&language=en-US&theme=simple)
