Actually, if they killed off Gilligan as if it were an episode of Lost, they would've be back to civilization the day after the shipwreck. :beaten:

Once Gilligan ran out of weed, he quickly became a drag on the survivors...

Pass me an atom of togarashi.

World's smallest bowl of ramen

[image]

It wonft fill you up, but it is a feast for the eyes (if you look through a microscope). This so-called gworldfs smallest bowl of ramenh — a 1-micron (1/1000-mm, or 1/100th the width of a human hair) wide bowl containing dozens of 20-nanometer (1/50,000-mm) thick noodles — was created by University of Tokyo professor Masayuki Nakao as part of an effort to develop new carbon nanotube-based microcircuit fabrication technology. Nakao used a metal particle beam to carve the bowl from silicon, and he mixed up a soup of ethanol and catalyst inside the bowl to form the carbon nanotube gnoodles.h According to Nakao, it was a major challenge to keep the bowl from overflowing. No word yet on how the tiny meal tastes.

:lol:

Wtf? The ultimate anorexic meal? :hehe: Although I wonder what ethanol ramen tastes like.


I hope nobody ate it, cause they say carbon nanotubes can cause lung diseases similar to asbestos. :sweat:

The question is can you get nano menma (bamboo shoots) with that bowl?

:hehe:
Don't forget the chopsticks. I guess 2 nanotubes could do the trick.

I wouldn't pay for it unless it included at least a half-dozen slices of succulent kurobuta. :beaten:

Canned Bacon Guarantees Full Heart Failure in 24 Hours

Remember the canned cheeseburgers? Now you can make yours even more yummylicious with canned 100% US bacon, cooked and ready to eat. Actually, forget the burger: make your own bacon sandwich using two additional layers of bacon instead of bread. Each can contains all the vitamins and minerals you need to keep a healthy life while pretending to work in front of the computer, and you can even use the remaining fat to polish iPhones and assorted gadgets.


Each can comes with 40 to 50 slices of lipids and protein, produced using three pounds of raw bacon plus:

water
salt
sugar
smoke flavoring
sodium phosphates
sodium erythorbate
sodium nitrite

I bet it tastes damn good, though. :beaten:

Damn. Even the wax paper is filled with fat. :bleh:

LOL.

I don't know who would buy that: one of the nice things about bacon is that it's crisp... I can't imagine that stuff in the can could be crisp at all. ..

Yup. scary. I tried the 5sec microwaveable once. It was kind of crisp too. Must be some kind of new conservation technique, like for the real fruits in cereals.

Unless the thing is cheaper than real bacon, (good for school cafeteria :hehe:) I don't see either who would buy this thing. Maybe for camping? :headscratch:

I wanted to share this really exceptional website for a kaitenzushi (conveyor belt sushi) restaurant that I came across. It's called Lucky Fish....located in Beverly Hills...looks pretty cool. :)

Yeah that's true! I've never been ~ I just stumbled upon the website by accident. It's not horribly expensive either but then it shouldn't be as a kaitenzushi joint. But I wouldn't mind going there once to try it out.

I had sushi for lunch yesterday and pigged the hell out...went to Sushi Gen and had

Maguro sashimi
small Aji (Spanish Mackerel) salad with ponzu and garlic
Negitoro temaki
Salmon skin temaki
Cut spicy tuna roll.

The rolls there are dayem good especially the negitoro temaki...it's like heroin for fish lovers:
