Have you tried ChatGPT? Just give it the ingredients you have, and it will synthesize a tasty recipe for you, without having to deal with all that online garbage. My family makes its motor oil stir fry all the time, and we love it! Just be careful not to add too much bleach!

Actually I have tried it! I described my ideas of the meal, and a recipe came out, and it tasted great and original! But I would be careful with the motor oil in your stir fry, that might be a hallucination.

When I first read your message I was honestly crafting a very different response, glad you went with that.

Honestly the issues I have had with online recipes is before ChatGPT. But recently I do have to wonder. So honestly just staying away from it has been a better option.

What weight works best? Synthetic or dinosaur? Have you tried adding a bit of gear oil for more viscosity?

Amusingly, rapeseed oil was originally used as motor oil before being better refined in the 70s, and made suitable for human consumption. branded in North America as canola.

Was even added to cattle feed too.

Sometimes gpt's confusion can make sense.

Canola is still fed to cattle after the oil has been extracted. They also eat the corn husks & cobs left over after canning and the pomace that remains after apples are pressed for juice.

I really think pigs are almost perfect. Sure, cows eat a lot of stuff we throw away, but pigs seemed to be the household recycler. People want sustainable living, and yet throwing all the table scraps to a pig and then eating it a year later is a perfect example.

Oh agreed. I used to get expired produce, prepackaged salads, bread, etc. for free from the local grocery store and feed them to my hogs as supplement to their usual feed. They loved the variety, I think!
