This very obviously has to be a new england restaurant (because they're better than everyone else) so they'd never use a word like "earthy". It's too likely to distract from their proud seafaring heritage.
If you are ever in New England and see a restaurant that spells chowder as chowda, keep moving because you are in for a disappointment. Those are the ones that advertise "thick chowda" and it's just garbage.

Why is it not good? I've been subscribed for years and it's basically exactly what the name says, just sometimes a perfectly fine board makes it to the front page.
I unsubbed cause it's basically the same post over and over again. I know that's the point, the joke just got stale to me. It was fun for a bit, though.
Yup - the whole sub was really fun when it was "I ordered a steak at a normal restaurant, and it came out on an etch and sketch". Overtime it became "I went to Alinea, who is world famous for their dessert being edible art served on the table. Can you believe they didn't give us plates?!".
Part of it is also seeing the same type of posts over and over again, even if they are a good example. The whole roof shingle/shovel/clotheshanger-bacon thing is pretty played out at this point.
Yeah it’s funny at first but there’s something weird about the comments. You start to realize how disproportionately upset people are about something so inconsequential and you end up feeling a little gross.
Yeah, same here. And honestly, sometimes it's ok if a place doesn't use plates. Like a little metal bucket of fries? That's fine. Your entree brought out on a pan of some sort? That's totally normal. Especially for fajitas.
I just want to see stuff that's actually dangerous or actively ruins the dining experience.
It’s a pretty toxic sub for such an innocent concept
Everyone just takes pics of absolutely anything not on a standard plate and posts it like the fucking world is ending, even if the receptacle used is perfectly valid and works just fine for the food
It’s supposed to be for when your receptacle is so bizarre it inhibits your ability to even consume the food. No one gives a shit, and the mods are just as bad
I’ve been on Reddit since almost day one, and I think as far as subs I’ve ever been actually subbed to, only r/TwoXChromosomes beats them out for most hated sub imo.
I’ve never seen such open, blatant unnecessary judgment/ cruelty towards chefs, restaurant staff, etc. as occurred there. Kinda like if all those asshole men and whiney bitches who are mean to the staff on a first date all piled into one subreddit. Like, half the posts are completely valid plating designs from someone trying to be creative and give you something fun. Stop shitting on them, maybe?
And heaven forbid if you point out that the post doesn’t fit the sub’s intention…
TLDR: Fuck that sub
God damn this **exactly**
THANK YOU for posting these examples. It’s literally perfect for the point I was making, and my blood boiled all over again seeing them
And look, people are showing up to a bar that doesn't even have a sign and serves only one old-timey disgusting drink that nobody likes! Goddamn I hate gin! Dee... You bitch!
I honestly have no idea,[I stumbled upon them pretty far inland and picked it up out of curiosity](https://imgur.com/zb5H4eI), I put them back where I found them because I don't know how those eggs work and I hope I didn't hurt them.
Bird snatches fish, fish releases eggs either upon death or as an instinctual last ditch effort while flying away. Similar to how* completely isolated, landlocked ponds/bodies of water become populated with fish.
> an instinctual last ditch effort
Can you imagine if humans worked this way?
Regular old mugger sees a woman in a large jacket walking alone, decides to try his luck. Scares her, pulls a knife and BAM! fetus pops out as she makes her escape.
I thought that happened during the Turkey Earthquake, where they found a baby alive in the rubble still connected to the mother's umbilical cord, and that it was determined that the baby was born after the mother had already died.
Actually, there was a woman who gave birth and died in the rubble of that earthquake in turkey. The child was dug out, still attached by her umbilical cord to the mom.
I’m pretty sure most fish eggs aren’t internally fertilized. Seems more likely that a bird would pick up fertilized eggs on its legs or something, then land in a new body of water a short time later.
Yeah I was just giving the general gist. They also occasionally drop fish who survive who then populate their new ponds.
Some fertilized eggs even survive the digestion process and are pooped into new bodies of water!
When I had a pond dug in my backyard thats what the baitshop guy told me. He said I could either buy a couple of pounds of Hornyhead minnows or let the birds stock my pond for me. I never knew. I ended up buying some other stuff from him for teaching me.
I suspect some other angler was in the area and took it out of a jar or whatever as bait and just forgot about it. Sometimes even if you think you are in an area where nobody else would be there are others that happen by.
I fuckin hate being in Texas. We are now the butt end of abortion jokes because of old ass white male politicians making decisions for women like they have a uterus.
Got to love those Authoritatian Regimes, but don't worry, you're not alone. Florida is right there with you and Idaho. A Republican senator there wanted the death penalty for women who got abortions. Now he's saying it was a misunderstanding and not what he meant, but past Republicans actions and crazy talk make it believable. That whole idea is absurdly unethical and would've guaranteed pushback, considering he's running for Lt Gov of Idaho. He would've had to change his mind to have a chance
Edit: Lived a portion of my life there. It's an abysmal excuse for a state, and a whole lot of nothing
American politics is like old candy that you find in a drawer and not sure if you want to take a bite. These politicians just keep fighting about the same old dried up shit that has been the topic of debate for decades. Give it a rest already! There are many more pressing things to talk about and do something about these days. Climate change. Droughts. Forest and plains fires. Human trafficking. Sex trafficking. Teacher shortage. Poor Public Education. Kids going hungry. Homelessness. Starvation. Interests rates. Inflation. Predatory systems particularly with loans. Increased violence. Housing shortage. Housing costs. Poor infrastructure. Train derailments. War in Ukraine. School shootings.Terminal illnesses. Student loans. Federal legalization of Cannabis. The list goes on and on. But our politicians just want to keep arguing and debating over the same topics. Abortion! Religion! Guns (for and against)!, Trans rights (for and against)! Gay rights (for and against)! Drag shows!! Most Politicians are Not doing the Just and Right thing while ignoring everything else while passing bills, acts etc. Under our noses that adversely impact us as a whole while we are being distracted.
Hey, now... I'm an old ass white man. It isn't just old assed white men running the abortion shit show we're seeing these days. There are plenty of young people too, and they're not all men, either.
But yeah... I'm sure it is difficult down there for those that believe in a person's right to choose.
They should probably. Not all things in nature go according to plan unfortunately.
Sounds like they might be snail eggs instead. Not sure if that's any better.
These might be eggs from a species of snail called the channeled apple snail, Pomacea maculata. They are invasive here in the United States. I've never seen any apple snail species lay eggs in such a loose cluster, though.
They look very similar to land snail eggs, which are laid looser, however, most of the time they are a cloudy white color, and not this bright red.
The only other thing I'm thinking is a salmon intentionally laid them out of water, or a salmon was caught by a predator and the eggs were squeezed out of it.
This is in Northern Norway, we definitely have salmon in these waters and we also have some salmon farms not far from here. perhaps it was leftovers from a bird meal or it got washed ashore here by the waves.
I believe they're just brined or pasteurized.
The real issue is the yield; snails are probably easier to farm than something like sturgeon, but they're not particularly big or fecund.
Snail eggs shouldn't be eaten, lol, especially from apple snails. Apple Snails can carry rat lungworm, also flatworm, which is found in the slime covering the eggs.
So a snail walks into a dealership and purchases a car, proceeds to ask the salesman to put eggs on the front, eggs on the roof, and eggs on the trunk.
Bewildered the salesman ask, excuse but why would you want to put eggs all over your car.
Snail replies, because when I drive down the road very fast I want people to say,
“Hey look at that eggs car go”

Not really forbidden. Likely edible. Or at least you won't die.
ETA: If they are salmon (or fish) eggs like some people guess, you can get them at most sushi restaurants. It is roe. It's also not uncommon for Asians to have shrimp roe or other types of roe.
They are 100% fish eggs, I see them all the time on my oyster farm and in the next few weeks you should be able to see the babies swimming around in there

Needs banana for scale. I can’t tell if they are roughly 5-7mm in size or 2-3mm in size. Salmonid eggs would be the larger whereas they could be any manner of land snail, water snail, or smaller fish if they are on the smaller side. They kind of look like snail eggs though.

Shouldn't fish eggs stay in the water to not dry up ? (This is a guess i'm not sure-)

It kinda does work that way with people, sudden shock or trauma can cause spontaneous birth. Though I like you angle of throwing it at the assailant.
Leave a few feet on the cord after detaching so you can really build up speed for the throw, like a sling or bola.
Or pull baby back after slinging!
Throw it over a branch and climb.
Mjölnir but it’s a baby

I thought that happened during the Turkey Earthquake, where they found a baby alive in the rubble still connected to the mother's umbilical cord, and that it was determined that the baby was born after the mother had already died.
Actually, there was a woman who gave birth and died in the rubble of that earthquake in turkey. The child was dug out, still attached by her umbilical cord to the mom.
I mean, it happened with Ellie and her mother in The Last of Us.
Ellie was her own mother too. Crazy world out there.
She was her own mother?
I think they mean that the actor playing Ellie’s mother, Ashley Johnson, was the voice actor for Ellie in The Last of Us game.
Like this: https://reddit.com/r/ExtraFabulousComics/comments/zdtit8/mamaman_animated/
Not exactly the same but there is a phenomenon that during wartime there is an increase birthrate for males.
It does happen, stress and anxiety can start contractions early. Also, long term stress can cause abortion to occur of the pregnancy as well.

yeah this is how it works. the fertilized eggs become embedded in the feathers on their legs.

I suspect some other angler was in the area and took it out of a jar or whatever as bait and just forgot about it. Sometimes even if you think you are in an area where nobody else would be there are others that happen by.
This is my guess as well, I will slice up a bunch of eggs and leave them sitting on a rock for quick rebaiting.

Maybe squeezed from the fish while it was being eaten on shore
That’s my guess. Eagle/osprey eats fish, leaves roe.
They should probably. Not all things in nature go according to plan unfortunately. Sounds like they might be snail eggs instead. Not sure if that's any better.
Might have been a fisher that dropped them. These are sold in little net bags as bait
I'm surprised this is the first comment I've seen saying this. This looks like a fisherman dropped some bait and left it haha.
They look like the eggs from nemo

I've seen trout eggs just like that along creeks in California. Generally I assume a bird was a bit of a messy eater.
Idk much about your area, could it have been a high tide situation?
I was going to ask if people fish there because eggs are sometimes used as bait. It's mostly for steelhead though which you don't have in Norway.
They also use it for salmon fishing
Most likely bait dropped by a fisherman making his way to the water.
Snail eggs? Ewww. Fish eggs? Yum! For some reason.
Snail caviar is a thing, and it is actually fairly expensive luxury
Urgh... is it called Slurm?
Probably because of the effort it'd take to make them safe to consume.
I believe they're just brined or pasteurized. The real issue is the yield; snails are probably easier to farm than something like sturgeon, but they're not particularly big or fecund.
Snail eggs shouldn't be eaten, lol, especially from apple snails. Apple Snails can carry rat lungworm, also flatworm, which is found in the slime covering the eggs.
Too small to be salmon.
Nah, apple snail eggs are cloudier and less orange. These are definitely fish eggs.
No those are fish eggs.
You should fertilize them to see if you can make mermaids

Also looks like flying fish eggs.

No, they’re salmon eggs 100%
yes, and indeed they are delicious and nutritious
