The sheer number of tips in this article describing how lentils don’t behave like meat while cooking seems like a roundabout way of saying “using ground Beyond meat would have been way easier and more meat-like."

Lentils are an amazing ingredient and I love them but they’re not a replacement for meat in taste nor texture, they’re their own being, and thus not a replacement for replacement meats.

When I here anything about lentils, I think of Neil in “The Young Ones”.

A lot of of these characters seem to be marvelous suckers...

Small thing, but especially when the article is about multiple games, would Kotaku be able to put the name of the game below screenshots? I had to reverse image search most of these just to figure out what games they were pictures of.

Something being “completely unnatural biologically speaking” isn’t a particularly strong argument against it. So are books, cooked food and antibiotics. Also in many cultures, marriage is literally a “sacred institution” - as it’s heavily linked to religious belief.

It’s truly hard for me to imagine looking at a world full of busy people going about their lives and think that something’s wrong with them because they’re not paying more attention to me.

When talking about a medical procedure, is it not important to discuss it in medically correct terminology? Saying that the electrical waves produced in the fetus at 6 weeks are a “heartbeat” is MEDICALLY incorrect. Full Stop.

I do not understand this site’s continued hostility to the idea of plant-based meat in fast-food settings and its continued feigned confusion in asking “who is this for?” Time and time again, commenters have patiently and not-so-patiently explained the possible benefits, who might want to eat said products, etc., and…

It’s the same issue we found with KFC’s Beyond Fried Chicken that left us asking, “who is this for?”

Marvel fans don’t need an excuse to get riled up. Despite being fans of the largest movie franchise in history, with a plethora of content generated just for them, and crowding out the rest of the market, they’re somehow still the same ignored, underappreciated, and totally oppressed nerds getting wedgied in middle…

“Fel” as it exists in WoW is a completely made up word specific to WoW and doesn’t mean the same thing as “Fell”. Fell Dragon, in this context, is most likely influenced by Tolkien specifically. 

Big time “commissioned my OC thought I’d share” energy

It’s the red/blue heterochromia with the hair to match. This is absolutely the most “my original character” a Fire Emblem protagonist has ever looked.

I really wish they would’ve given us an announcement for Three Hopes DLC. While giving us some wonderful lore dumps and character development, that story feels like it’s missing something huge, and the Azure Gleam and Golden Wildfire routes in particular felt unsatisfying.

I’ve only been playing since Awakening, so I don’t have a lot of history with the franchise, but I kind of liked raising relationship ranks by actually interacting instead of just standing next to each other in battle.

However, the place seemed huge and I felt like I spent too much time running around, especially…

Not sure why I’m reading an article that doesn’t get that plant-based is — glaringly obviously — less environmentally intensive than animal-based, but this is particularly dumb: “mass production of anything is less eco-friendly than sourcing local foods as a staple of our diets”.

Ha, “heavily processed”; silliest argument in this whole debate.

No, not really “to a point.” If we have an acre deforested for crops vs an acre deforested for grazing, it will always be better for it to be crops. There will never be some point or level of scale where this relationship flips and cattle would be the more environmentally friendly choice.

It does seem kinda like the “electric cars also use energy which might come from fossil fuels!” argument.
