    Lol these are always funny. Look up people complaining about a “leaf” in their food when the recipe uses Bay Leaf. It’s like complaining someone put leaves in your tea.

      If it’s not edible it shouldn’t be in the plate. Bay leaf, cinnamon sticks. Etc shouldn’t end up in the plate. They’re used just for flavor.

        What a weird hill to die on!

        So I assume you eat the bones of chicken wings, legs, thighs, etc? You eat the stems of apples and other such fruit? And you eat the cores or pits?

        Or were you one of those children brought up by parents who cut off the crusts of the Wonder Bread sandwiches to make sure you never encountered any iota of challenge or even the most trivial work while eating?

      I will say though, I’ve had curry where the bay leaf is chopped up which makes it rather obnoxious.

        I always leave them in because pulling them out is more trouble than it’s worth. I’m lazy as hell, but I’m also cooking for just my wife and I.

        Literally worst case nobody’s going to crack a tooth or something. They get a spoonful of soup with a big leaf in it and they just put the leaf aside.

        Big pot of something and hope you find all the bay leaves. You might pull some out, think you’ve got them all but they like to hide.

      I fucking hate bay leaf, if you don’t have a plan for getting it all out at the end don’t put it in the food because it’s gross.

      Leaves obviously don’t belong into tea. Everyone knows tea grows when you hang those little paper bags on a tree. And depending on the kind of tree, you get a different type of tea.

          This is actually a common misconception. The truth is any cow can produce chocolate milk. The misconception comes from brown cows featured on the majority of chocolate milk cartons.
