News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

I hope that wasn't meant to be a pitch for it. Diet Coke tastes like ass.
See that's the disconnect - diet Coke doesn't taste like Coke that's less Coke-y, it tastes like Coke that had the sugar replaced with a scoop of Grandpa's ashes and a dash of betadine.
If we've made the meat equivalent to diet Coke, the best course of action is to just skip that nastiness and cook up some tofu or paneer or something.
If we've made the meat that's just a little less meaty, okay cool, I'll give it a shot.
...but those two are NOT the same thing.
Kinda agree, I might try the bacon if it's not prohibitively expensive. But an ethical source of pork fat would be pretty nice for any culinary focused vegetarian. But I actually liked the impossible stuff I hear people talk a lot of shit about, so I'm obviously no super tasting expert.
Tasting expert can only tell you what they taste, not if it's any good because that is entirely up to the individual. Some (arguably quite a lot) people love diet coke, does that make OPs statement wrong? I'd say no because that individual doesn't like diet coke, but that doesn't speak for everyone.
Never said they were wrong, but they are essentially saying if we don't get it perfect, then why try at all? That I disagree with. I'm with them on not liking diet Coke, but I like that it exists for whoever does like it.
Every Diet Coke drinker I've ever known has been a fat person who thinks they are addressing their weight problem by drinking Diet Coke, and doing literally nothing else.
In their defense, drinks are some of the worst offenders for excess calories, which is what drives weight gain.
Diet Coke isn't medicine or anything, but if you're drinking it when you would normally be drinking a normal Coke, then you just saved yourself a couple hundred calories.
Obviously not going to make up for a 3k calorie per day diet w/ no exercise, but it is a step in the right direction.
