Earth is not what I would have thought it to be. It is much cleaner and easier to breathe here than I was informed and the number of humans present is vastly underestimated by present census. The lack of nuclear war has proven beneficial to the experience of this visit.

Food would improve the experience more. Please provide me with the food you feel best illustrates your life here and where it is served. If you have others you deem equally important, I will accept them. Strong flavors preferred.

Your efforts are appreciated.

This is probably just a different version of Earth than the one in your own universe. It's definitely been known to happen. In fact, it's kind of the norm.

What kind of food do you usually eat where you're from? Any intolerances? I don't know if all Earth food would agree with you

[posthitch]

Then I would prefer your Earth does not descend into a nuclear wasteland while I am here.

All humans foods are digestible by my system. Most foods I have experienced are not translatable on this device. F'ghou'rar'lak had food made like what humans would know as meat pies. There were over one hundred flavors of consumable meat on that planet that were used to make the pies. They were enjoyable.

[khajidont]

That's a funny coincidence because I also would prefer that we not descend into a nuclear wasteland

Sounds like a culinary wonderland. There are definitely meat pies you can check out here. Though I think I would be insulting my ancestors if I didn't recommend you try Mexican food first. It's way more flavourful than some of the stuff out there, I promise

Heck you can combine both and try out an empanada

text

[posthitch]

A meat pie that is also Mexican food is an empanada. That is a suitable food to experience. Where is Mexican food provided?

[khajidont]

What city did they put you in? I'll give you some recommendations to go from there

[posthitch]

Nonah, North Carolina of the United States of America I was told.

Sal's Pizzeria in Heropa is literally life-changing. Almost as good as no nuclear war.

[posthitch]

Pizzeria. A restaurant that primarily serves pizza, a dish of bread flattened into a crust with sauce and toppings. I have not had pizza before.

What toppings are best on pizza?

text;

[storyseeker]

Yep, you got it right.

[Hooboy.]

The most popular item is pepperoni. But everyone has different preferences. The only absolute rule is that pineapple is an abomination.

[posthitch]

Food can be an abomination?

[This is the first time that Dira has heard such a thing.]

text;

[storyseeker]

Not literally. People are free to eat what they like. But between you and me, some options just shouldn't exist. Skip the Hawaiian style.

text;

[posthitch]

So an abomination food is not inedible. It is a colloquial use for foods that you dislike the flavor.

I will remember that. Colloquialisms are very strange.

I don't know that I'd call it particularly representative of my life here, but if it's flavor you're into, I must also recommend the foods of my people [she's spotted Jamie's thread]: Of the Porter cities, Nonah has some of the best curries.

text

[posthitch]

[She uses the technology on her "phone" to look up this curry as she has with the other foods mentioned.]

Yes. Foods with strong flavors are the most memorable. Curry looks eatable. Which version of curry do you recommend?

[mostlyprofessional]

Butter chicken's the usual starter curry - it's the one Indian dish my nana would touch. Tikka masala's good. I like kane rava fry, it's stronger, but it's rarer Stateside. Most places should have vindaloo and some will probably have de goa.

[posthitch]

Vindaloo? The word is similar to the acid-breathing reptile on Banabala. The meat is very tough and spicy. Is the curry the same?

[mostlyprofessional]

Ha - it's spicy, sure, but the meat's tender. If your curry meat is tough, someone's screwed up somewhere.

I don't think I've heard of Banabala.

[posthitch]

Banabala is a planet 150 million lightyears from Earth. Half the planet is swamp lands and the other half is desert.

Vind'aloop are a specialized meal. It must be prepared over twenty days of cleansing to make the meat eatable without potential poisoning. It is eaten only for ceremonies and holidays.

I did not enjoy the texture.

[isthatyou]

how many humans did you expect to find? I was totes weirded out at first too.

can't really help with the food tho. i don't eat anymore :/

text

[posthitch]

Earth is inhabitable. Humans have not lived there in centuries.

It is unfortunate that you do not eat. Food is life experience.

text

[isthatyou]

huh. we thought most of them were gone where i'm from too but it turned out they were all on some funky island?

used to! but now i gots to do the plant biz. 'cuz i'm a plant now. meat loaf was my fave but idk what the best meat loaf source 'round here is

text

[posthitch]

Humans exist in the millions, but not on Earth. They live in the colonies and on the moon Fi'oar.

Is meatloaf bread made out of meat?

text

[isthatyou]

ohhhh so you're space peeps? i've talked to some others here.

pretty much. it's meat shaped like bread. my brother jake makes it.

[cassassin]

Silsila is good? Indian food, in De Chima. Their... chicken tikka masala is the best. And the tandoori goat...

voice;

[posthitch]

Indian food is what I have been recommended most. Do you have a location you prefer to buy this food?
