I don't understand, what about this is supposed to look unappetizing? It's just a bag of sauce, you can't even see the chicken.

>>18021127
its a red bag of duct tape in the sink. it looks like shit.
plus whatever is in there is going to look like shit after an entire 5 days of being submerged in acidic sauces.

>>18021107
>that image
wouldnt all that acidic hot sauce dry out the chicken over 5 days?

i marinated some chicken in buttermilk and the acidity started to cook and dry the chicken overnight, i cant imagine what hot sauce would do.

>>18021127
do people really not remember movieblob anymore? his cooking is Jack-tier.

>>18021141
>it looks like shit.
Talk to your doctor dood, something is wrong with you

>>18021107
If it looks good but tastes like shit then it isn’t magically less shit from looks alone. I get presentation to an extent but after a point its just a pretentious waste like a dictator buying a golden AK. Literal monke ape brain mentality.

Who cares what it looks like while you're cooking it? The food won't look like that when you present it to a table of hungry dinner eaters. I do think it's worth it to make a bit of effort to make the dinner table look good as you all sit down to feast. Any masters of dinner table feng shui in the thread?

That's a bad marinade. I'm not reading the date on that tweet, but post finished product and/or troll him until he does.

>>18021174
based illiterate retard

>>18021107
that's a fairly small amount of hot sauce for an average-sized chicken, I'd say?

>>18021145
Yeah 5 days is a long time to marinate. Probably don't really need to go past 24 hours or else the acidity just starts having a negative effect on the texture.

jesus christ is it so fucking hard to use an oven?

The real question is whether you can really taste the plastic or you're just trciking yourself

>>18021280
How about we don't tell them yet?

>>18021107
Food is all about looks, OP. How else will you update your IG and FB? 50% of your friends will forget about you if you're not having nice looking food on a nice looking beach with nice looking females.

>>18021414

>>18021107
did he ever post the resulting dish?

>>18021107
when im hungry as fuck no
but its not like my food comes out like a surrealistic piece of art

>>18021127
Nigga it looks like a fuckin piece of hardware from the plumbing aisle.

>>18021145
Normies think that the longer they let something marinate the better it will taste, no matter what. They have no concept of acid or sodium as they relate to meat.

>>18021107
>Proteins left in goddamn vinegar sauces of all things for 5 (5) whole days

Fucking amateur.

>>18021107
It does for me. Though, mindset when going into a meal matters overall. You're not going to appreciate the various qualities of a meal as much if you're distracted by shitposts and memes on a Mongolian goat steaming enthusiasts imageboard.

I suspect it very likely that the majority of the people on this board not only do not cook regularly, but don't even pay much attention to the food they consume when they do. When you put some time into a nice meal in a pleasant environment, and savor the qualities in your work, the meal is going to be more satisfying and relaxing. Moreover, spending the small amount of time to settle your meal and dining spot neatly can be meditative of itself if performed mindfully. Seeing a visually appealing thing and deriving pleasure from that isn't exclusive to fine paintings and cunny bellies; we should endeavor to improve aesthetic detail in all our daily crafts.

>>18021146
Man, you weren't kidding

Also that's a fairly small amount of chicken for an average sized person, I'd say?

>>18021696
forgot image

>>18021699
Also why the fuck is he so obsessed with "marinating" stuff in mountain dew

What, you guys don't like two pounds of rice with your soda chicken?

>>18021107
That's food prep, not food serving, of course it won't look pretty. This guy is such a retard.
For OP question presentation shouldn't come at the expense of taste, but it doesn't need to in order to look tasty and nice on the plate. If you're cooking for other people and your food looks like dogshit on the plate then you're lazy because you can make most dishes look good without sacrificing taste.

>>18021107
As long as it doesn't look like literal shit or rotten, I don't care if it looks pretty or not.

>>18021107
i dont think its ok to refrigerate raw chicken for 5 days, he's gonna make someone sick

>>18021107
Is that a red plastic bag or a transparent bag filled with hot sauce?

>>18021764
Pretty sure it's the second.

Good old movieblob. Does anyone actually give a shit about what he says? He's pretty much always been a punchline as long as I remember

>>18021352
giant obese retards like this literally always have water diarrhea. you have to ignore a lot of red flags from your body to get that fat, and that's one of them.

>>18021683
based post. it doesn't have to be a fancy gastronomique presentation even, but when you eat shitty sloppa plopped onto the top of an old pizza box all the time, it affects your mindset. you turn yourself into a trash goblin. if I gave that to someone else, I would feel like I was insulting them.

plus, people undeniably eat with their eyes. if you're cooking for others, presentation absolutely matters. if you're going to make something for other people you care about, why wouldn't you spend at least 1% of the effort you spent cooking to make it more presentable for them? my girlfriend says she doesn't care about presentation, but I know for a fact if I don't make it look nice she doesn't like it as much. respect your craft and the people you're cooking for, even if it's just a hobby, and even if it's just for you.

The McDonald's tweet was a major turning point, he lost like fifty pounds after that so no more cringekino

>>18021145
The acid from the buttermilk cooks the chicken

>>18021274
if you have ever typed or said 'sammich' i hate you personally.

>>18021683
Agreeing with this. I had so much more joy in cooking when I grew my own vegetables and herbs, it was lovely. I still enjoy plating but I care a lot more when the situation is right and I find it more rewarding to cook for someone I love too, rather than myself.

marinating something for 5 days seems like a bad idea

>>18023062
I know you won't believe it but I jog 3 miles 3 times a week and I'm considering assembling a home gym

Yes

>>18024503
Who would do that? And still, why is he being so verbose about it. It's just weird. Just say you drank whisky and be done with it. State brand and ages if so desired.

is this mountain dew shit a meme or are they really doing this? and does it work?

>>18024887
sure it can tenderize meat
makes me think of the "man who sued pepsico for finding mouse in his mountain dew lost because evidence reveals that the mouse would have dissolved within 30 days"

>>18024898
theres no way in hell an entire mouse would dissolve in any soda within 30 days
meat and bone eating soda is a fucking meme

>>18021696
I understood that reference

>>18021696
It's a whole-ass chicken, dude.

>>18021120
Plating can be nice without being pretentious.
I try to plate my food nicely even though I just cook for myself and don't take photos of it.
A little sprig of parsley or some garden cress can make a very basic dish look much nicer. You don't have to stand there and put flowers on it with pincers like you're a damn Michelin chef.

>>18021107
I see that pic posted here all the time.
Is there also a photo of the end result, though? I can't imagine it was good.
People who don't know how to cook always over-marinade because they think more is better.

>>18021141
>>18021534
It's also not fucking ready to eat yet.

>>18024987
Have you ever seen anything that ugly in any kitchen ever? Also consider that the red color isn't the bag. It's the sauce.

>>18021274
I keep forgetting that "people" like this exist. I thankfully almost only see them online.
I did one time meet a woman who must have been at LEAST 25 years old when I was walking the dog. She petted it and said, out loud in public, "boop the snoot".
I should have have sicced it on her. I regret that I didn't.

Also, if he's eating the legs and breast by himself he's a goddamn pig.
>>18021352
Raw chicken can keep for 5 days in the fridge. Especially in a marinade.
It's not going to turn out good, though.

>>18021705
Now I'm no expert, but isn't filet mignon supposed to be a medallion cut from the tenderloin, which is boneless?

>>18025017
Yeah that's the joke.

>>18024898
Not completely dissolved, the expert(s) they (Pepsi) hired claimed the mouse would have turned into a jelly like substance in 30 days, unrecognizable as a mouse due to abscene of bones/structure. The mouse they pulled out was completely intact, and born later that the manufacturing date.

>>18024929
Tissue/collagen not so much, but it has the acidity to dissolve bones, especially small ones like that of a mouse.

Retard. On a small chicken, both legs and the entire breast is good macros under 800 calories or so.

>>18024939
It;s a reference to movieblob saying that 5k calories if mcdonalds is "A fairly small amount of mcdonalds for an average sized person, I'd say" completely neglecting he isn't the average sized person since he's 400 pounds

Indian food literally looks like shit but it's great

>>18021146

>>18021107
Presentation matters. If your food looks like shit, that brings down the experience of eating it.

>>18021699
Kiwi is the only weird ingredient. I've had chicken with a Pepsi glaze on it, so maybe lemon chicken with a mountain dew marinade could work?

>>18021107
>hot sauce

It's going to taste like Taco Bell died.
I marinate chicken in a blend of Franks and Worcestershire

>>18024459
>>18024503
'poured neat' mean with no ice or mixers. The US is a cocktail nation, so we have to distinguish the ways in which we enjoy our alcohol. A lot of people here like to add bitters, sugar, fruit juice, etc. to their alcohol.

>>18025469
Oh right, kek. Thanks.

>>18025567
Green kiwis have a lot of actinidin, a meat-tenderizing cysteine enzyme. It's similar to bromelain in pineapples with how it softens up meat.
Eating a lot of either fruit can hurt your mouth because of this.

>>18025589
Based. I just think the melon-like floral notes of kiwi would taste weird any meat.

>>18025589
>Green kiwis
Are there other kiwis? Have I been missing out? Kiwi is my favorite fruit.

>>18025602
Yeah, I'm not fond of fruity sweetness with savoury meats myself.
>>18025610
Golden/yellow kiwis, which tend to have thinner skin and less fuzz. Red kiwis, which taste a little sharper. Etc. There's dozens of cultivars. Zespri Gold is a pretty popular one.

>>18025620

It's more the fact it's burnt to shit. Soaking it in soda could work but I personally wouldn't trust Movieblob to get anything right so if presented to me I wouldn't eat that

Plus he's the sort of retard to think that it's healthier because there's fruit

>>18025755
Based gutmaxxer

>>18021127
Would you really eat 5 day old chicken

>>18021120
But you're saying appearance does matter to you then. Certain plating styles affect your perception of the food and your desire to eat it.

>>18026879
Yeah, I shook my head at that. I thought this was one of the Youtubers or whatever this board simps for.

>>18021107
It's secondary, but nice.

>>18021699
I mean, I'd try it.

>same formulaic shitpost thread from that one absolute sperg obsessed with Moviebob for years now

i am tired.

>>18025755
Looks like an enemy from a zombie apocalypse game

>>18021107
...5 days?

>>18021107
It can. I don't waste much time on garnishes or plating for myself (cook, slide onto plate, shove into face), but if I'm cooking for people, even a little garnish and some well-placed and prettied up flatbread with a bowl of sloppa makes me feel better about serving it. If the expectation comes from it looking like a plateload of diarrhea, sometimes the brain guides the tongue and not the other way around.

>>18025014
My sister is exactly that type of redditor retard that would say that stupid shit in public. She's 25 and I'm 20 and somehow everyone thinks I'm more mature than she is.
God hates reddit.

>>18028861
Is she attractive?

MovieBob isn't even that much of a blob in comparison to how he used to be, that McDonald's tweet caused him to reevaluate his life

presentation isn't everything, but it's not nothing.

Isn't that just "straight up" or whatever? Or is the term "straight" too homophobic for you mutt snowflakes?

>>18021274
imagine slowly rendering Soft Chubby Zoe's fat and using it to fry your 5-day chicken

>>18029471
Straight also works, as does neat. Could just say "without ice" too. Like with most booze related terms there are always other ways to tell someone how to poor your liquor. Thousands of years of hard drinking have come with plenty of ways to tell someone how you want to get fucking wasted.

>5 days
Wouldn't the chicken dissolve in that time period? Enjoy your botulism soup.

Isn't that a rather small amount of food for one man

>>18024929
no but it does turn it jelly-like, at least enough damage is done that it's not like a mouse freshly put into a bottle of mountain dew

>>18024929
>>18032951
It was a can, but yeah. As >>18025047 mentioned, the evidence was a mouse which was far too intact despite the drink's acidity. The defence's case included a study on the effects of citric acid in low concentrations on organic tissue (that was ironically also meant to show the ill effects of soft drink consumption).
PepsiCo's defence here was actually pretty solid. They chose to settle out of court to get the news to stop talking about the case which was harmful for their brand image. Despite proving the thing was a hoax, journalistic integrity doesn't exist in the 21st century and it was just better not to have constant "MOUSE DISSOLVED IN MOUNTAIN DEW!!!" headlines.
