I don't actually like potatoes. Here's hoping that they'll invent salt water rice soon
(Seriously though, almost all rice is frigging delicious unless it's prepared abysmally)

Hint: You can combine the two.

Diced or mashed, either work. Stick it in rice, make yummy ricetato dish. Probably wouldn't suggest just shoving a whole potato into a bowl of rice, though.

Mind you, you can shove basically anything normally edible into rice and have it come out pretty well. And the other way around. It's a nice staple. Being able to get it out of salt contaminated ground would also be nice.

If I were to make ricetatoes, I'd just go all the way and extrude the mix into a pasta.

[Frumple]

That is the next logical step, yes. It's also pretty good. Just take every base grain/starch you have access to, prepare them in a way they work together well enough, and shove them in a bowl.

Usually just do mac and cheese when I go that route, because it's both cheap and easy to make, but other stuff works just fine. Thin noodles, lasagna type stuff, whatever. Rice + potato + pasta = also good.

No, no, not a sandwich. Add croûtons. Put the bread in the bowl, too. Everything goes in the bowl. Everything.

Why not make the bowl bread?

On the bright side, you won't have to eat any more starchy foods for the rest of your life.

Or, likely, want to.

So if we make the bread bowl with rye bread, and then wrap the whole thing in a corn tortilla, how many staple grains do we have left? Barley?

[Frumple]

Technically, you could probably cook some form of barley-based alcohol into the concoction to cover that angle. Booze bread once the alcohol is cooked out of it is supposedly pretty good.

Also, hell the fuck yes.

Heh, I've been expecting stem cells when I read that. But nope, even better.

Fixed.

We know what Deinocheirus mirificus is!

Until now, it's been the dinosaur only known by

What's the big deal it's just two raptor arms. *see person*

oh.

[Mech#4]

The article mentions it had hooves and a duck-like beak, but both pictures have toed feet and a rounded beak. I wonder what it used it's arms for.

You might have seen this if you read Cracked (or, well, NYTimes), but a bunch of guys developed a strain of bacteria that, essentially, feeds on sweat by oxidizing the ammonia.

Seems to be some claims of unexpected beneficial effects, and they actually invite researchers to publically investigate them and plan to do so themselves.
