You say Aubergine, I say Eggplant
I've never posted a wank before. YAY me!

I bring you Eggplant Wank.

It's a recipe. For eggplant. But go to the comments!

Yes, that inoffensive vegetable brings the wankers to the table. See them argue over MSG! Sugar! Disparage Americans, Brits, and New Zealanders!

A highlight:

"It doesn't take much to bring the Nazi tree huggers out. OH!!! Don't eat MSG!! OH!!! Save a tree, but could you hold my place in the tree line whle I get an abortion!!!

FWIW, the recipe is pretty good :D

	It has a scary, scary chemical name! It must be evil! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES! Unfortunately, your friend is right. MSG causes headaches only in people with a specific vitamin deficiency, but we're all trained from birth to get the vapors at the mere thought of "dirty" food, so we're really, really good at making ourselves sick. /wank off (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	OMG, that's one of my huge pet peeves too. "Oh shit, it has a name I can't pronounce, oh noooooo." Listen fucktard. If you saw the IUPAC names on everything, instead of the trivial name, you would absolutely flip your shit. It's all the same stuff. Anyway. /end thoughts on naming procedures (Reply to this)(Parent)

	As the song goes, you cannot go against nature, because if you do go against nature that is nature too. Also, he was a great cook with that stuff... (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Okay, you're officially awesome. You quoted one of my favourite Love & Rockets songs. (Nobody listens to Love & Rockets - no one I know has even heard of them.) (Reply to this)(Parent)

	... I can't believe it took a wank report for me to find out why I get headaches when I eat some Chinese food. sheepish look (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I knew about MSG causing some of my headaches, but I was told it was probably an allergy instead of a vitamin deficiency (which I realize now is really weird, because I survived just fine for two weeks in China when I was 12). Huh. Where's that "The more you know!" graphic when you need it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Eh, allergies can develop/get worse later in life. My skin has gotten increasingly sensitive to certain things (but my hay fever, which appeared when I was 10, disappeared by the time I was fourteen. shrug). (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Too true on that. Until I moved out West a few years ago, not a single allergy. Now soon as things start blooming, I'm gasping and wheezing for the Claratin. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Idk, I know for me it's not something I normally think of, especially considering my health's not always the best, anyway. Now we both know, though. ^^ I won't stop eating it, though. >.> <.< (Reply to this)(Parent)

	MSG causes headaches only in people with a specific vitamin deficiency Which vitamin deficiency? My mom gets MSG headaches all the time. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	issendai 2007-05-29 02:04 pm UTC (link)
	B6. There's still plenty of argument over whether all MSG sensitivity can be traced to B6 deficiency (I didn't know that when I wrote my comment), but having a B6 deficiency does make people more sensitive. Good luck to your mom. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Thanks. She's dealing with it fine, by just not having MSG, but this means that any time we eat out she has to ask the waiter to go back to the kitchen and check whether MSG is in what she's ordered. Which I think she's fine with, but just in case I can tell her that if she'd rather not do that and just take an extra vitamin pill, that that's an option. (Reply to this)(Parent)
