    I’ll assume they’re talking about breaking up clumps instead of the thing a serial killer would do and then just phrased it poorly.

        What they mean does not matter.

        Nearly every internet comment section for the last thirty years summed up in one line.

          Also the vast majority of human communication, which is so full of implications instead of stating things directly to determine who is part of their in group or to avoid conflict that people have a hard time just being clear and concise when they really should be.

            I agree - there’s some large accesibility-like issues with communication, which causes issues for people where it isn’t their first language, the neurodiverse, or in safety critical applications. The /s is a fine early example of that.

            That said, if everyone stuck to basic facts and focussed on clarity rather than content, the world would be a mega boring place.

              I’m just saying they should be more clear about the content in situations where clarity is necessary. It isn’t like science is boring because the communication about black holes and nuclear explosions is clear and direct in those settings. Science is the best example of blending clarity where it is needed and humor/sarcasm/throwing shade for fun when clarity isn’t as important.

        Which would be a poor but not completely unreasonable way to describe what happens when you squish a clump to split it into individual grains so the oil can cook it evenly instead of making an oily white rice ball that has a fried outer surface.

    So you need rice that’s dried out.
    You soak it in water, to prevent it from drying out.
    You rinse it to prevent clumping.
    And you fry each grain seperately, cause it’ll clump anyway.

        Absurd, I am a regular human with regular human appetites.

        Just curious do other humans like me eat more than 1 grain? Just seems greedy to not share with your queen.

      In some cases, enough not only for the guy eating it, but also for multiple people taking a bath in a nearby pond, about to come to your little house to eat free food in a while.

    Google AI sucks. Recomending you put 1/8 cup glue on pizza which turns out the result was from 11y old Reddit comment by u/fucksmith

    I haven’t heard of rinsing and soaking leftover cooked rice before

      Are you telling me you’re questioning an AI that has no concept of hunger or taste or what cooking is on a matter of cooking?

        Just thought it was interesting to only circle the bottom absurdity 🤷

          I’d say, OP circled the one that was correct.

          • The first and second points would have been correct if not in the wrong order.
          • You don’t use Basmati rice if you are making it specially for fried rice.
          • Yes, you separate each grain of rice and fry them as evenly as possible.
            • How? By declaring martial law in the Wok and beating down any clump formations until they surrender and go their separate ways, making it easier to fry them evenly by tossing them around.

    this seems reasonable to me. how many pieces of rice are you guys trying to fry at a time? you really don’t need more than 30 to fill up a spoon.
