[asktheanswer424]

[MohoBiechiz]

Nobody take this the wrong way but I hate Jews...

[TheChucky4664]

i put in the wrong type of acid, now all i want to say is i BELIEVE IN FAIRIES!!!!!!!!!!

[Sjhager72]

Where is your onion....the acid you need comes naturally from onion they didn't have and G-d Damned vitamin C tablets in my great grandmother's shtetl

[maluorno]

@JoesPlaying  - just did........yikes.

[JoesPlaying]

@maluorno Please google canola oil. In the first results you will find some "the danger of/how toxic" etc. Please get your facts straight before spitting out such bullshit, the best oil to fry with is peanut seed oil.

[maluorno]

@JoesPlaying - its only the most healthy oil to fry with....

[FeistFanInsideAndOut]

Your mom had to teach you how to use a food processor..?

[JoesPlaying]

And I just noticed you're using canola oil.. oh dear, you know that oil was not meant for human consumption right?

[JoesPlaying]

WHAT? "But really you need an oil that's going to be to a much higher temperature" The smoking point of olive oil is between 5/10°C lower than other oils, you don't use olive oil for frying because it's too flavourful, and so you need a more neutral oil, not because of the temperature, you stupid and uneducated idiot.

[TheJenBong]

What? No. Just no. Don't tell me how to make latkes.
