If you are the person in the kitchen who has the idea in the first place to cook... you're chef. You can enlist people or tell them to fuck off at your whim! Yeah definitely not a great cook myself but I've had that with my brother before. Like fuck off dude you've worked BoH before, I have a lot of hot things and sharp things and food I don't wanna burn, so you should know i already told you not to help me! I'll ask if I need help 😠 it's too many cooks my dude

she's definitely wearing contacts, but also she's purposefully making weird facial expressions. It's the unnatural motion from the cut frames that makes it look uncanny.
I know big/wide eyes are a beauty standard in a lot of asian countries. There’s a fairly common(?) beauty routine where women push their upper eyelids up into the eye socket with a special tool and literally glue them open. It’s not permanent or (AFAIK) dangerous, and doesn’t affect their ability to blink except maybe making them need to do it more often.

Visual family trees in Japan must be confusing as shit. "That's my daughter, that's my mother.. no wait.. That's my mother, that's my daughter, and that's your cousin Vicky, and that's Jerry, and Jerry's mother... sorry Jerry's sister..."

I fucking LOVE msg. I used to be able to buy it at HEB. No longer sell it because people are fucking stupid and do not know the history of the bet that vilified it.
It's used in absolutely everything in the philippines, they buy it in boxes of little yellow packets or big bottles of the powder.. called "Magic Sarap", and it is truly magically delicious
It was only ever on them because restaurant owners got spooked by the rising popularity of chinese food and sought to discredit it by appealing to a racist narrative that the food was fundamentally unwholesome.
Go to whatever grocery store is near you, look for a spice called "Accent". It comes in a white bottle and is MSG. I buy mine at Walmart because fuck food prices.
Semi related: I used to buy Julio's chips at HEB. Seasoned with MSG and other spices. Now I just buy a huge bag of HEB's cheaper unsalted tortilla chips and a can of Julio's seasoning to do it myself. So good. HEB also has a habit of just completely ceasing to carry items from time to time. Soon as you get hooked, they're either gone completely or just gone from your area.
Sage advice sir, my family LOVES those damn chips and this sounds like a cheap alternative. You don't need anything additional to get the seasoning to attach?
You still can, but maybe not in the purest form. Go to a carribean or west indian store and ask for Maggi masala or agino moto or ahki. They ought to have the Chinese or Indian versions, if not the purer African version. I prefer more natural versions such as roasted kelp and other flavourants such as high, but to each their own. Even Walmart has packets of maggi magic masala in the ethnic aisles
Stupid auto-correct. I meant *hing, not high, also known as asafoetida or ferrula resin, the origin of the floral herb in the lowlands of middle east somewhere
If you're on the south side of Houston there are a decent number of asian markets within 15-20 minutes of you (depending on how far south) that you can get it from
That is crazy. MSG is amazing. I work at a high end grocery store that doesnt sell MSG or products containing it on the label. Its fucking stupid because these hippies love it and the stuff its in. They just dont want to see MSG on the label. Call it fermented yeast extract or mushroom extract and they go gaga for it. But its just rebranded MSG. its an organic compound thats found in everything delicious.

seriously though,
街の電気屋の娘 = "the town electrician's daughter"
こぶつ屋小牧店 = "Kobutsuya Komaki (that's her) store"
eetsumkaus
こぶつ屋 is commonly known as a used goods or thrift shop in American English. 電気屋 is also not an electrician, but an electronics merchant/store.
This shirt has to be a pop culture reference I don't know, it doesn't make sense even if you translate it.

yes, 古物 are second-hand goods and she does have such a store in 小牧市, so that's her internet name

If you have access to asian supermarkets, they'll have it. If not then usually their chicken stock power has quite a bit of MSG too.
