All Good Food

I actually prefer a pink milkshake with a burger, better than fizzy drinks or anything else.
 
At last, my type of meal! I may try this inshaAllah.

And who can resist burgers and fries? Thank goodness I don't have too many halal takeaways where I live.
 
Yeah thats nice, burgers is always a fave, at least you can make your own, sis, just mix up the mince with your own spices and there you have it, easy :D
 
The problem is, when you order it from a takeaway you can't see all the unhealthy ingredients they pile in which makes it delicious, but when you make them yourself you try and make it healthy and it doesn't taste as nice :p. Ignorance is bliss in this case.
 
Root Beer contains methyl salicylate which is used in ointments (called "virsterksalf" in Afrikaans) to treat muscular pains. The story goes that in the old wars, the soldiers used to drink Root Beer because of the methyl salicylate inside of it which would provide relief for muscular aches and pains.
 
That makes sense...so its not ginger beer although ginger is a root.

I read it as 'virstik' lol, is that a word even,?

Root Beer has the same colour as Pepsi and Coke, whereas Ginger Beer has a greyish colour.
 
I've never tried root nor ginger beer - I don't mind a strong ginger flavour tho, it's quite nice.

In my community these concepts are still alien, I can imagine the horror if the 'aunties' ever caught me drinking anything so much as called 'beer'. :D Still remember the long justifications I had to make when I let it slip I like putting apple cider vinegar on my chips.

Is it allowed / halal / permissible in Islam to oil a chicken, etc? I like sour and sweet sauce! I like sour and sweet sauce very much!!!!!!

Allah :swt: knows best.

If you're lucky enough you may get a nice recipe for burgers on here :D
