think you meant: http://www.zmag.org/

Tev, may I draw your attention:
Also, we will gladly publish negative comments, but not the ones of the irrelevant, unreasonable, anonymous and vulgar variety. We welcome debate, but keep it clean!

Perhaps their definition of "unreasonable" is stretchable to an point. I trust that you refrained from vulgarity and irrelevancy, again, nice loosely definable criteria.

Scary rival for feckdonalds: Carrot Burgers

Ingredients (18 servings)
10 Carrots, peeled and cut into chunks; 2 tablespoons Oil; 3 Garlic cloves, minced; 3 Onions, cut into chunks; 2 Celery stalks, diced; 2 Green peppers, diced; 5 tablespoons Tamari; 1/2 teaspoon Garlic powder; 1/2 teaspoon Basil; 1/2 ts Paprika; 1/2 ts Oregano;
1/2 ts Parsley; 1/2 c Tahini; 3 tb Peanut butter; 2 tb Cashew butter (opt); 1/2 c Wheat germ, bran or flour (opt)

Method

Place the carrots in a medium-sized saucepan containing 3 or 4 inches of water; steam over medium heat for 15 minutes, till soft. Drain and mash well using a potato masher.

In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat; add the diced garlic, onions, celery, and peppers; sauté for 7 minutes. Add the tamari, basil, garlic powder, parsley, and oregano; sauté for 2 minutes more, until vegetables are soft. In a large bowl, combine the carrots, sautéed vegetables, tahini and peanut butter. Season to taste. If the batter is too wet, add the wheat germ to make it hold together.

Preheat oven to 350. Form the mixture into patties, and place on an oiled cookie sheet. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until golden on top. Turn and bake on the other side until golden brown.

God i love that carrot site more than wot is healthy.

you forgot the meat.

― dog latin (dog latin), Thursday, 18 May 2006 11:41 (nineteen years ago)

Silly me.
Quite right, + 20 lb mixed intestine, hoof and assorted tumor.

― ginweasel, Thursday, 18 May 2006 11:42 (nineteen years ago)

assorted tumor? everyone knows that the most tasty sort of tumor is lung tumor.

please ginners, us cannibals won't just eat any old bit of meat!

Spinal-cord bap, double-yum!

― Good Tevens, Thursday, 18 May 2006 12:14 (nineteen years ago)

fucking "Carrot burger" your taste buds are never going to forgive you.

― satan, Thursday, 18 May 2006 13:27 (nineteen years ago)

where did carrotburger come from? carrotburg? you crazy veggies are always trying to change the world.

― dog latin (dog latin), Thursday, 18 May 2006 13:39 (nineteen years ago)

It is a citizen of planet carrot fools. And no because my taste buds report facts not msg induced nonsense.
And the lovely carrot burger won't hang out in my colon for 5 months breeding naughty unfriendly bacterias.

― ginweasel, Thursday, 18 May 2006 13:51 (nineteen years ago)

carrots can be msg too though.

― dog latin (dog latin), Thursday, 18 May 2006 13:54 (nineteen years ago)

Not if I don't put any in when I cook them.
It's truly amazing stuff... I discovered special piggy msg a few years ago when sharing a kitchen with a chinese guy, it has cartoon pictures of happy piggies in msg heaven on the front and is flavoured with choice piggy fats. How lovely I said, eyes wide in horror.

― ginweasel, Thursday, 18 May 2006 14:02 (nineteen years ago)

Another time someone I knew had some manky cock (or spedro, hazy memory) cut with msg and the skin on his face started falling off in little circular patches so he looked all polka dot.

― ginweasel, Thursday, 18 May 2006 14:13 (nineteen years ago)

what??

― dog latin (dog latin), Thursday, 18 May 2006 14:16 (nineteen years ago)

Mmm, lesson is don't get your drugs from anyone sadistic or, frankly, cheap enough to cut them with msg.

― ginweasel, Thursday, 18 May 2006 14:23 (nineteen years ago)

is that even possible??

― dog latin (dog latin), Thursday, 18 May 2006 14:38 (nineteen years ago)

Well according to this guy who was living with his dealer at the time in less than salubrious conditions, yes that was what he did. The bloke was a bit of an amateur by all accounts though, so I don't doubt it's not the norm.

― ginweasel, Thursday, 18 May 2006 14:47 (nineteen years ago)

I made carrot burgers last night and they were gorgeous. My and omnivorous flatmate's and manwife's tastebuds loved it, so ner. But a warning in case anyone else does it- don't oven cook them as stated, grill the bastards or they'll take an million years.

― ginweasel, Friday, 19 May 2006 07:31 (nineteen years ago)

Can you post me one?

They sound weird but they are burgers so they must be good.

― Teev, Friday, 19 May 2006 07:43 (nineteen years ago)

you can't oven cook burgers! thats ridiculous! i've got a mcdonalds degree on burger cooking that clearly states you can only grill or fry burgers.

― killer clockney (honesttoafault), Friday, 19 May 2006 08:01 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah it's true Clocko is a qualified chef specialising in American cuisine so he's probably right about this!

― tEV, Friday, 19 May 2006 08:10 (nineteen years ago)

Well there you are I did grill them, so, burgers. I have all the mcdonald's literature at home too as social curator of the world(including the colour charts which show what colour cooked burgers should be and that green ones are bad (revelationary stuff)) so i will check your burger definition later!
Sorry tev, we ated them all. Had to be done.
