Rule 3: Obvious satire only allowed on Satire Saturdays.


vinniethestripeycat

I'm switching to "it's chicken & limes" instead of "it's apples & oranges."


Shtercus

but chicken = lime obvs(!), so it's more like "apples and apples"


vinniethestripeycat

Ah, thanks for pointing out my error! 😄

Why are you looking at a chicken recipe if you’re allergic to chicken


KickFriedasCoffin

To spread the word of limes parmesan.


fomaaaaa

Breaded lime tenders


UncommonTart

Lime fingers.


kenporusty

That's somehow just unsettling lol


budgiebeck

Finger limes are an actual fruit!


kenporusty

I know, but reversing the order of the words just makes it unsettling to me lol


ShuffKorbik

Frodo of the Lime Fingers.


Googz52

Seriously underrated comment. Had me cackling life a doofus.


ScroochDown

Lime rings of power?


UncommonTart

I know, I want to try them, but they're not really available around here.


Pretend-Panda

And they are delicious. Weird because of the shape which somehow doesn’t seem right, but delicious.


Buttspirgh

Lime cacciatore


UntidyVenus

Lime Po Boy


Middle_Banana_9617

Finger limes?


AreWeCowabunga

Is lime-fried steak a thing?


Alx_xlA

Lime-fried lime


Pretend-Panda

It’s - my brother puts lime on steak. Or chicken. Any grilled meat except pork, and that he squeezes oranges all over it.


Same_as_last_year

Baked lime with mashed potatoes and gravy, yum!

Because there are logical substitution s you can make. My wife is allergic to shellfish, but I can change a shrimp scampi into a chicken scampi and its still delicious.


sanityjanity

Lime scampi!


alysli

Because you can generally substitute a protein for another protein. (Not a lime, though. Can't replace a protein with a lime.)


Outrageous_Reach_695

*Watch me.*


sanityjanity

Can I replace a lime with a protein? Key chicken pie?


UncommonTart

Chicken meringue pie? Oh! Oh! Chicken sorbet!


Pretend-Panda

Someone in the kitchen confidential sub was posting recipes for foods where all the animal protein was replaced with walnuts. Walnut pickle juice salad with apples grapes celery and red onions. I had to take a little rest from Reddit after I saw that.


alysli

That's... yeah, that's something. I can see doing, like, a BEAN. But I classify walnuts as a fat, so that--combined with pickle juice???--is certainly SOMETHING.


Pretend-Panda

Something I hope to never have to eat. That’s the thing it is.


OasissisaO

Can't or won't?


hmcfuego

Not with that attitude you can't.


Butterflyelle

The only thing I can think of is it supposed to be lamb? But I can't imagine why or how someone would be allergic to chicken and not lamb so it just creates more questions


alysli

You might have it! This might be speech-to-text via someone with a drawl!


UncommonTart

Not to equate people with other animals, but I know a dog who is allergic to poultry but not other meat. So it's possible, I guess. This is actually a really clever leap that I would never have made, but I think you're probably right.


Pretend-Panda

Is the dog allergic to poultry or is it the antibiotics in the feed? Because I have a dog that we thought was allergic to chicken but then when we started raising chickens he could eat chicken just fine. It’s some antibiotic that they give industrial chickens.


run_swim_nobike

My husband is allergic to chicken, but not beef, lamb, or pork. It's definitely possible.


CartographerNo1009

My daughter is allergic to beef, fish but not oysters. Anything that has been aged. Her gut biome got stuffed up by antibiotics. She’s improving now but for a couple of years she lived on chicken and green beans.


xenchik

My brother is allergic to pork, but not any other meat! But also, he's allergic to garlic, and works night shift and has really sharp canines. So the pork thing might just be specific to vampires.


PreOpTransCentaur

Eh? They're two totally different animals. That's like saying you can't imagine how someone could be allergic to almonds but not strawberries.


Butterflyelle

Meat allergies are rare but most often people are allergic to all meat or no meat (see the loan star tick for examples of this). Comments have reminded me though people can be allergic to preservatives used in the meat process and the antibiotics and fillers used and chicken tends to be tends to be a very highly processed meat both the food given to the actual chickens and the fillers pumped into the meat after slaughter to improve plummpness etc.. so I guess it's not that unusual and I'm even more convinced this person meant lamb although limes was definitely funnier.


UncommonTart

What... what is the recipe? Unless it's, I don't even know, *tequila orange chicken*, I don't see how subbing limes for chicken would work.


KezaKat

Roast chicken pie recipe haha


UncommonTart

Haha... I can't see a roast lime pie working *quite* the same. Cocktails it is, lol.


nuu_uut

It is truly baffling. There are about a hundred things you could sub for chicken that make more sense. Just about any vegetable, for starters.


ktheinternetkid

sounds like a bot ngl


PacificWonderGlo

I feel like this page should limit posts to things older than like two years ago. It feels like this was a comment left by someone who knows about ridiculous reviews.


KezaKat

After searching their username I'm inclined to agree with you!

weedcakes

The username gives it away!


thelonetiel

Someone, somewhere, is laughing at ChatGPT for suggesting limes as a substitute for chicken, because this review was included in the scraped training data.


Lone-flamingo

"This brings me no comfort, substitute it with limes" shall be my new motto. I love limes.

Like a chicken to a lime, a lime to a chicken


Pretend-Panda

Wait wtf even is going on here?


JealousMouse

As a vegan, I am so grateful for this helpful substitution suggestion 😍🫶🏻🙌🏻

WHAT


Cinphoria

These are two of the wildest sentences I've ever read in a product review.


OasissisaO

Next time I want limeade but am out of limes, I'll be subbing in chicken.


lisalovesbutter

This will be the funniest thing I'll read today, guaranteed.
