Does anyone know any recipe that involves meat and cream cheese? 

[GiglameshDespair]

Not personally, but the internet provides it's bounty.

I'm beginning to wonder how Jews ever survived in China as long as they have, considering how freakin' hard it is to find dumplings and buns that don't have pork or shellfish in them....

I've read horror stories from vegetarians who've gone to china.

[majikero]

How so? They have plenty of vegetable dishes.

[Rose]

Apparently they don't serve them often.

And quite a few of them have things like oyster sauce, dried shrimp etc that nobody really mentions, particularly if you're victim to the language barrier

It really depends on where you are and what you're doing. In downtown Shenzen, there are plenty of options for vegetarian food, mostly in foreign and/or higher-end places. Head out into the industrial areas and I had the impression most of the food put in front of me was markedly not free of animal product. I can't speak for touristy areas.

Same with Japan; really, really hard to find vegetarian dishes outside of major cities. Pescetarian, sure, but not vegetarian, and explaining that bonito flakes mean it no longer counts is fiddly.

In other news, my vanilla-and-cinnamon infused Woodford should be nearly done infusing. Coming to an icecream near you. Actually, none of it's coming to you. It's all mine.

Finally got some room in the freezer to make that chocolate-chocolate chip ice cream. Tastes (mostly) like the store-bought stuff. Except the chocolate chips. Maybe shouldn't have used semi-sweet chocolate, and they really hurt biting into them. Still, it's just three ingredients.

Spoiler: The recipe (click to show/hide)

2 cups heavy cream
14oz. can of condensed sweetened milk
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided

Whip the cream with a mixer on high until it stiffens. Melt 1 cup of chocolate chips, and mix it in with the condensed milk. Stir in the rest of the chocolate chips. Freeze for four hours or overnight.

I mixed a small amount of yogurt into a bunch of heavy cream, mixed it well, put it in a sealed container, and let it sit at room temperature for 24 hours, before putting it into the fridge.

Much obliged. Soon, arteries. Soon, you will be full to bursting with butterfat!
