shalafi comments on Why does my soy sauce bottle have two spouts?

Soy sauce is so loaded with salt nothing can survive in there. Doing that in public is a bit rude, but not dangerous.

That is just completely false.

And don’t give stuff a chance to breed on the outside too. It’s not rude, it’s digusting. This also doesn’t just apply to soy sauce, it’s general life advice. Dont stick your fingers where other people will ingest from.

It’s sad this even needs to be stated.

You mean to say bacteria live in saltwater?! AH! Soy sauce is 128 to 172 grams of salt per liter, oceans are ~35, closer to the Dead Sea than normal sea water. I dare you to culture a halotolerant organism in soy sauce. You can borrow my chemistry shit! (It ain't much...)

Germaphobe thought is always about what's possible, not what's probable. My wife almost never refrigerates dinner, covers it and leaves it on the table or stove until the next day. Now lecture me using the numbers we all learned for our teenage food handling cert. "Food kept under 140F for over 3-hours should be destroyed in a furnace at 5,000F. 🤓" We should be dead and we don't even get upset tummies.

This'll make you puke: I use hair ties I find in parking lots. AH!

…. Soy sauce is literally made with a halotolerant bacteria. And it can also go wrong.

Assuming high salt means safe from bacteria is a plainly foolish way of going about stuff. Especially since it’s made with bloody bacteria… so how could it be made it nothing could live in it genius?

It was in the link I provided even

AH! GERMS! ER MER GERD!

Crazy thing about bacteria and other microorganisms, and this is gonna bake your noodle, they have to be able to live inside of us to be harmful. And the harmful are a tiny subset of those animals.

Did you take 2-seconds and look up "Lactobacillus plantarum"? I know you didn't. I did because I'd never heard of it.

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3911214/

Huh. It's already in my gut and tested as a supplement.

Are you breathing now?! Stop that! You just sucked in bAcTeriA and FunGI! AH! For god's sake and your own health, NEVER GO OUTDOORS AGAIN!

You germaphobes are a bizzaro world version of anti vaxxers, no conception of real threats, but goddamned you're know sCienCE because GoOGle! Please, live in fear, don't let me stop you.

Providing knowledge makes me a germaphobe? Fucking strange logic dude.

You also constantly have flu germs in you, that doesn’t mean you’re safe from exposure to higher levels.

You have no concept about how any of this works, your other comments just let us know exactly how disgusting you are. It’s not germaphopic to point out you’re just a generally disgusting human being, and someone not wanting contact with you isn’t a germphobe. You’re just so filthy you’re a risk to anyone.

This may shock you, but a lot of humans even have “Clostridioides difficile” in them, and may not show any symptoms, but they can also infect other people. You’re disgusting.

If someone comes up to me covered in mud, and I ask them not to touch me, that doesn’t make someone a germaphobe. If I asked a clean person not to, yeah that’s germaphobic.

LOL, germaphobe, as I said. I don't get sick and neither does my wife or children. Explain.

I would love to send people like you back even a 100-years. You would starve to death, shaking in your boots for fear of food.

As I said, it's wild that we went from not believing the germ theory of disease to "WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!" And then on the flip side, "I ain't never known anyone with measles! That stab is poison!!!"

We sterilize our children and their homes, keep them inside, and now we're wondering why cancer, seasonal and food allergies are spiking in our young. I'm sure you'll have a pithy reply and link to that claim, while utterly ignoring these issues are not affecting us olds. (Or my kids for that matter.)

There is absolutely nothing anyone can say to explain this to you that you would comprehend. Again, I’ve explained why I’m not a germphobe, I don’t mind touching dirty stuff, but I’m gonna wash as soon as possible. Wanting to be clean isn’t the same as not wanting to touching germs, or feeling physically ill thinking about it.

It’s like sitting in a pool and wondering why everyone else is complaining about getting wet by rain, since you’re already wet.

You’re just a a filthy idiot, I bet you don’t return the carts to the corral when you’re done shopping too eh?

Of course I return my carts. But you want to put me in the "selfish" box and nothing will stop you. FFS, I didn't say I was gross in restaurants. I'm just not too worried about others being gross.
