cannot believe people actually buy rice makers when regular rice itself is stupidly easy to make

[bezosbaldhead-deactivated202007]

no, white nonsense is people paying over $50 for an appliance that can only do one (1) task

[aletheius]

rice cooker doesn't just make rice; it can make extra thicc pancakes too.

[bezosbaldhead-deactivated202007]

ok I understand rice cookers even less now!!

[milfsagainstroadhead-deactivate]

You can steam veggies too

[fenris-calls]

Grew up in half Japanese household. Have rice maker.

Dated Korean girl. Had rice maker.

Care to explain how this is a white thing?

[magdids]

Its a yank thing

Man sure is nice to have a versitile cooking component to do soft omlets, steamed vegetables, unleavened breads, sauces and of course rice in.

Wait it's a white thing now even though it came from Japan and most Asian households own one because it's convienant?

So I don't want to get into that. It's kinda narrow visioned to think something can only do one thing. But the history of the development of the rice cooker is super interesting and marked by many many failures. It also is about science, invention and trial and error.

The gist of it is in 1937 the Imperial Japanese Army had the first electric rice cooker which was really just a box with a heating coil under it. It worked but was not great. In 1945 Mitsubishi made the first commercial rice cooker but again it was as pot with a heating coil and required constant monitoring or the rice would burn. There had to be a better way.

In 1956 Yoshitada Minami working with Toshiba made the first true set and forget rice cooker. It required hundreds of hours of experementation in all weather to work it out. His wife was pivitol in the development. At first he had the idea to do a bimetal thermostat switch meaning that as the water boiled off and was absorbed the temp in the pot rose and when it hit a certain point a piece of temp sensitive metal would bend away just enough cutting the flow of power. However the metal was very suceptable to hot and cold weather. The solution was to encase it in it's own pot shield and thus the true rice cooker was born. Now you could simply add water and rice, turn it on and when it was done cooking it'd turn itself off.

That lead to a massive development boost in automated cooking technology in both the commercial and private sector for a million different applications.

Back to the practical application of a rice cooker though. It may sound like it only does one thing but it's an electric pot that won't go above a certain temp. You can make pizza, bread, pasta, cake, soup, yogurt, potatoes and cook fish and meat dishes too.

Now, that's all I got to say about em.

[drdrunkpigeon-phd]

bruh just use a pot of hot water

[such-justice-wow]

But that can boil over because it doesn't regulate its own temperature

The one I have turns off when the rice is cooked and switches to a warming mode so you can focus on the main meal

You can also make egg fried rice in it

“... white nonsense ....”

Whut.

“... appliance that can only do one (1) task “

If only there was a group of people who typically did that task everyday.

Wife and I both have executive function issues. Rice cooker handles it for us without having to mind anything--God knows how many pots of rice we’ve ruined.

[isaacsapphire]

JFC, the Japanese mock Whites on the regular for their lack of rice cookers/cheap rice cookers vs $200+ Japanese rice cookers.

White nonsense is an Akihabara rice cooker store I guess.

Meanwhile I'm sure I saw a post on here a while back about how a White person owning a rice cooker is cultural appropriation.

[cultofbeatles]

remember when one of john’s art college friends made the smartass remark about Brian’s sexuality by saying, “which one of you (beatles) does he fancy?” and within 48 hours the dude got a letter from epstein’s office that demanded an apology and paul sent him a letter directly saying to never come into contact with any of them ever again? just two straights, a gemini, and a bisexual protecting their gay manager. 

[nowandthenoldfriend]

getting into another fandom and liking another unpopular character ??? seems more likely than u think

[eppysboys]

john lennon’s legacy is just going to continue to be garbage and there’s just nothing we can do about it huh. sometimes I’ll just see a post with thousands of notes with a whole lot of misinformed people getting rock hard parroting each other about how John is trash and it’ll just kind really sink in that no one will bother to fact check anything about john, lest they actually give a damn about that wife he had, or bother to understand that measuring John Lennon - northerner born in 1940 with a whole lot of trauma + mental illness + addiction + confusion and angst over his identity who (eventually) owned up to his mistakes and tried to correct them - against 2020 standards is stupid. Getting riled up over a reputation created after the man was murdered is stupid. 

Picking and choosing the people you apply the 2020 measuring stick to is unfair - there are people alive who are wealthy and powerful who have committed crimes with no remorse shown who won’t have nearly as much scrutiny as a man who died in 1980. like…..holy shit, if Julian can have a balanced opinion on him, so can you.

[gaarfielf]

people really be like ‘what do you mean his ex wife came to forgive him after sincere apologies were made later in his life and his attempts to properly reunite with Julian were cut short by his sudden death? does that mean i can’t make jokes about spousal abuse anymore?’ and then they go make a twitter post that doesnt get any notes saying something to the effect of him deserving to be shot in the street like an animal bc of abuse theyre incredibly uninformed on and pat themselves on the back for owning someone on the internet for saying theyre listening to Imagine or what the fuck ever
