I have no access to fresh shrimp, so farmed shrimp is better than no
shrimp. Wild salmon is nice, but farmed is more available and a lot
cheaper. Like the shrimp, farmed is better than none.

I tried Gulf shrimp. It tasted of iodine, so I went back to shitty (literally)
Vietnamese farmed shrimp.

I tried wild salmon. It tasted like cat food, so I went back to farmed.

Wut? Never buy Asian, they have no standards whatsoever. We only buy
Australian prawns ( or shrimp as you say).

People who think fish tastes like cat food, don't really like fish.
IMO, of course.

So? People like different things.

Funny you should mention that. I went to the pharmacy last week and
found a bottle of xanthan gum suppliments in capsule form.

Now I can add some to any "from scratch" meal I make at home. :-D

Cool, now you don't have to taste the home-made factor when you make
something yourself. Also be on the lookout for locust bean gum and
foaming suppressant!

Its still difficult to ignore the craving of or replicate that laboratory created fat in most foods (and probably drink).

Since this is rec.food.cooking (not alt.food.fast-food, for example), you'll find
that most of us don't crave or attempt to replicate laboratory-created fats or flavors.

I disagree. Very much. Everyone craves some form of food or drink, occasionally.

But not necessary laboratory-created food.

A while back I craved some good tortilla chips. Just wedges of tortilla cooked
in oil. No laboratory involved at all.

In any event, I don't often get food cravings. I eat a variety of foods and
that seems to satisfy.

No no, you never can tell. Its like buying from a drug dealer at a night club. Are you really getting heroine or cocaine? You have no chemist or laboratory right there to test the stuff ... right there, do you Cindy?

I sometimes crave chips and salsa (with alot of black pepper - and I even may add Sriracha asian sauce to mexican salsa and maybe diced jalapeño)..

Every friday or saturday night, I get cravings. Other days, too.

My understanding is that he's going to be here any day now. Of course, it might be a little longer than humans can comprehend. 2.7 billion years or so sounds about right.

I wonder if they still make those nifty chemistry sets for children. I
could buy one of those and put all the little bottles of various
chemicals on my spice shelf.

I'm sure the chemistry dept. at your local community college wouldn't mind fielding the question.

I looked online. There aren't many stores that sell them but there are
some available online. They are pretty tame compared to what we had when
we were kids. Mine came with saltpeter and sulfur. We had to pulverize
my father's bbqing charcoal to make gunpowder.

I don't remember my brother getting a chemistry set, but one year for
Christmas he did get a microscope. We all enjoyed it but it was a
toss up who enjoyed it more, my brother or my dad.
