This is something people with sensory issues will have Keen Opinions on, but everyone is welcome. If you vote maybe give it a reblog too so it gets around! Feel free to explain why your vote is obviously the worst in the tags!

Kitchen Witch Recipes: Balsamic Glazed Porkchops
Not only are these chops delicious, the ingredients are magical too. First the recipe then what the ingredients do
2-4 large pork chops
1 large zucchini, sliced thinly
4-6 red or Yukon potatoes
3-4 cloves garlic
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/4 cups balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup chicken stock
Salt & pepper to taste
Pre-heat oven to 450°
Wash and dice the potato's and the zucchini, finely chop the garlic
Toss the zucchini and potatoes in the oil, salt and pepper, cook in the oven for approximately 30 minutes/ checking after 20 minutes to not over cook
Pat pork dry, salt and pepper both sides, heat the oil on medium heat, cook chops for 8 to 10 minutes, turning half way through. Do this while the vegetables are cooking
Remove the chops, then add the chicken broth, garlic, brown sugar and vinegar to the skillet, bring to a boil, reduce heat, simmer till reduced by half, add the chops back, cook for a few minutes so they absorb some of the glaze if desired.
Cut the chops up, add vegetables, coat with sauce, serve while hot
Now the magical portion:
Pork: Element is fire, used for strength, fertility, and luck
Garlic: Planet is Mars, zodiac is Aries, Goddess is Hekate. Good for bansishing, protection and breaking curses. Good for lowering cholesterol, cardiovascular health, and stabilizes blood sugar
Zucchini: This veggie is ruled by Jupiter, helps with abundance, honor, and prosperity.

Potatoes: Ruled by the moon, it's element is earth, this vegetable is part of the nightshade family and was once considered poisonous. This is good for grounding, protection and stability.
Salt: Ruled by Venus and the moon. Good for protection, absorbs negative energies, and prosperity

The Medical Industry in the US needs a dispensary for prescribed diets.
I’m talking about prepackaged and preprepared or easy-to-prepare meals, snacks and fluids as a part of outpatient care.
You can’t just give a patient a list of dietary restrictions and a 30 minute appointment with some vague guidance and then send them on their way. I’ve been watching a family member the last three weeks be miserable on a liquid diet for pre-surgery and the biggest struggle isn’t the diet itself, it’s that the list the doctor and dietitian gave her is only some suggested guidelines and half of the recommended things she can have on the list aren’t available anywhere. Also, when I say the guidelines are vague - her doctor during the pre surgical meeting yesterday chastised her for buying low-sodium broth, when the reason she bought low-sodium is because in her last meeting with the dietitian, low-sodium was verbalized as a positive. Also the low-sodium broth met all the other requirements on the list?
1) dietitians and nutritionists should be responsible for putting together a comprehensive meal plan with specifics and instructions - it should be a perfectly reasonable expectation that a person who’s job is to understand how our bodies are affected by what we eat, and what effects the things we eat have on our bodies, be able to provide comprehensive recipes that are tailored to patients diets. Cause guess what - people expect chefs to be able to do it on the fly in professional kitchens. You think working with and around dietary constraints hasn’t become one of the hottest selling skills the last 8 years?
You can’t tell me that it’s reasonable to expect an overworked line cook to do that and not a dietitian or a nutritionist.
2) There are too many patients who, once they are sent home, go off whatever necessary food restrictions they’re meant to be on because they don’t have the proper support or knowledge or experience to maintain their nutritional health. If we want health care to be wholistic, we need to make medically required diets and food restrictions more accessible for outpatient care.
Like - imagine being able to pop over to the pharmacy (or have a delivery!! We can do that, think about all the meal kit deliveries traveling around right now) or some kitchen dispensary near a hospital complex, turning in a script and getting one or two weeks worth of portioned meals, everything is measured out with easy use instructions and dates/times, because you just had surgery and can’t do certain strenuous activities, but popping a frozen meal to heat up in the microwave or the oven isn’t too strenuous - or maybe you’re on your chemo cycle, and those are so fucking miserable already but at least you don’t have to worry about figuring out what to put in a calorie-dense smoothie because it’s already thrown together in a sealed cup (nice fat straw included) you can dump in a blender tomorrow and right back into the disposable cup to drink - or maybe you’re on a liquid diet for five weeks and then on limited soft foods for four weeks after that, but at least you don’t have to worry about hunting down the only things you can have in four different grocery stores.
And maybe doctors will have less recurring patients when, if sending them home, they know that the patient will have more of a chance staying on their medical diet during recovery because they have more accessible options, rather than a vague list of instructions.

Important ramen related question!
I'm curious! I break mine in quarters, so it's still noodly, but not too long?
But I'm aware some people at least regard breaking the block of noodles as RAMEN SACRILEGE.
Opinions, everyone?
