I just wiki'd it... is it healthy? Sounds delicious but, personally, I'm nuts concerning my diet. The 'synthetic' aspect of how they get the flavoring kinda scares me
(I am curious though...)
 
^ Truffles are a fungus/mushroom with a unique taste and hunted for as they sell for top dolar...
OD, From what i know, and i havnt done much research.. it's just 99% olive oil with a few pieces of black truffle placed in the jar, and warmed @ a low temp, My G/f or kid wont go near it, but last time i checked fresh truffle was going for $800 -$1000 per kg. With the oil, a serve is about half a teaspoon (its incredibly strong/overpowering) so i cant see that it would be all that unhealthy, just have to drop it on in tiny ammounts to get the taste but not overpower everyother element of said dish that one would cook :\
 
^ Given exeption to the truffle...
Have been a chef for nearly 10 years, Frenchy foo fagnasty does not fall into the realm of the truffle @ all, its one of the most stimulating tastes and enjoyments you will ever experience bar a chemical of some sort:\

^----- Fuckin A' Right. =D

I went on a truffle-hunt in France while I was stationed in Germany, and it was sponsored in part by the USO. If we found any, some of the best cooks in the Army were on hand afterwards.

Only two people out of our group of ten found a truffle, and we were out there a LONG time. But we all got a taste of one plain, and the other was cooked on some awesome ox-tail & brown/indian rice irrc.

I remember that first little slice I ate made my tongue feel like it had just candflipped, and didn't invite my brain along to the party.
I'd never sully that insane sensation & memory, with anything as wrong as truffle-oil. =D

Brings to mind an old Carl Sandberg sci-fi short-story... circa '57 iirc. It involves a kid who orders Amazing Mushrooms for Food spores from a boys comic mail order, and begins growing them in his basement. His dad finds them, and the maturing mushrooms begin exerting a mindcontrol on him, to bring other humans to become spore-slaves. LOL
 
Asimov wrote a very similar tale. Knowing him, he probably ripped Sandberg off :|

Haha...yes, this is one of my greatest fear! :D
 
ptsd sucks.
sorry to hear by the sounds ur feelin a tad shitty, PSTD is not my disorder... Ive just been upped on my meds, thinkin life is kinda shitty right now too, This is where the research for treatment of PSTD with psycadelics needs to be far more widespread and am a huge advocate of, sure its not an answer but from all ive read and seen, there the tools that can help which needs to be taken more seriously than it is @ the present. Wouldnt be surprised if the big drug companys are fughting tooth and nail against it. Anyhoos im functioning well today and could be outta this hole of a house sooner than i thought, i just gotta make the decision: pay a little more and move into a smik pad or save a little and move into another old crappy place... im leaning towards lashing out an extra 10 bucks a week for a place thats twice as nice and got a pool n shit:\ I REALLY hope i can get approved for the bettter one will be looking @ that one tomorrow. OMFG but its fried my ass im tiered as shit but managed to pulll all my shit together today, minor win:\
 
Givin this thread a BUMP... i dunno if i killed it or not but i recon it's important TDS has an active social....
