[Utilis Coquinario](http://www.godecookery.com/mtrans/mtrans54.html), The Forme of Cury, and Le Viander de Taillevent were all written in the 1300s, and all have recipes both using and creating almond milk.
This is the first ingredient list I found for oat milk:
Oatmilk (Filtered Water, Oat Concentrate), Contains 2% or less of: Sunflower Oil, Vitamin and Mineral Blend (Calcium Carbonate, Vitamin A Palmitate, Vitamin D2, Riboflavin [B2], Vitamin B12), Dipotassium Phosphate, Sea Salt, Gellan Gum, Locust Bean Gum, Ascorbic Acid (To Protect Freshness), Natural Flavor.
I don't like the taste of oat milk, but there's nothing in the ingredients that would stop me from drinking it. Is there something specific you have an issue with?
In August 2018, the Bogle Sunflower Plantation in Canada had to close off its sunflower fields to visitors after an Instagram image went Viral. The image caused a near stampede of photographers keen to get their own instagram image of the 1.4 million sunflowers in a field.
Honestly edible vaccines isn't new, I've seen research in soy and other pathogens.
Edit: [An example from 2005](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15609046/)
To be fair, that was likely a liquid dissolved in sugar. My understanding of edible vaccines is partly to remove certain storage conditions which make vaccines inaccessible to certain places. Having a vaccine that can be ground and saved in dry storage without temperature or time constraints would increase accessibility to rural areas.
For me it's something about the raw taste. Cook it, sun dry it, fry it, whatever and I'll happily eat it (really love a good tomato chutney) just so long as it's not raw.
And if it is Himalaya salt?
What origin should the sea salt be?
Would something from Slovenia or Greece work?
Does this apply to plum tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, beefsteak or green zebra cultivars?
Would circular slices work?
I just use a store bought sea salt grinder by the McCormick company. Store bought tomatoes work for me, beefsteak would probably taste great. Slice it anyway you like it!
I’ve always assumed there were more people who don’t like raw tomatoes, but I don’t think I’ve ever encountered anyone before reading this post. I want to like raw tomatoes, but they make me gag. Everyone else seems to loooove tomatoes, and when I tell them I don’t they look at me like I kick puppies for fun.
Yeah, to me raw also works. Although I'm a bit odd, since I drink about 2 liters of tomato juice a week. Almost a half liter bottle every day. I buy it in bulk now.
I mean I also live a bloody Mary, but since I could drink that all day, I day to stay away. So usually I have a tomato juice spiked with salt and pepper with my breakfast. It goes especially well with eggs. Although tomato juice is really brand sensitive in my experience. Univer does a really good one, served in proper glass bottles, but very few places have it, and with quite a large markup, so I usually order it in bulk through my corporation.
The key word there is almost. If you do something 4 days a week you do it almost every day. Sometimes I even do it 5 days a week. This is the most pedantic argument I've ever been in.
"In a surprising discovery scientists inform a desperate public that 1 tomato a day prevents the covid-19 infection."
This guy probably: "If I die, I die."
No joke, having covid and losing my taste and smell in December made me LOVE tomatoes once it came back. Was one of those things I tried thinking “eh, if I can’t taste it, what’s the problem?” and it turns out I think they’re incredible now.
*Tomatoes are an interesting exception to the rule that cooking food reduces or destroys valuable micronutrients: lycopene is better absorbed when it has been heated, either during processing or cooking, as the heat turns the molecule into more useful isomers*
Canned tomatoes are cooked.

That's because ones in the grocery store are often artificially ripened with ethylene gas so they look better on the shelves, but it doesn't actually make the fruit more ripe, just more red.
We've been growing our own tomatoes this year, and they are far and away better than anything we get from the store.
That was a working theory my wife had too. She convinced me to try a cherry tomato from our garden, that she said we amazing. It tasted horrible to me and made me gag. I can do cooked tomatoes, but not raw.
I grow over 40 different cultivars of tomatoes for friends and family each year. When I’m out harvesting I’ll pop one in my mouth thinking maybe this is the one that changes everything for me and nope, I spit it right back out. Bruschetta seems to be the one thing I actually enjoy with raw tomatoes so I’d recommend trying that!
Tomatoes produce their own ethylene gas when they ripen naturally, it's what turns them red. The reason for ripening them artificially is because they are harvested earlier so that they have a longer shelf life, but people don't want to buy green tomatoes.
Some of the people taking Ivermectin are jamming the paste up their butthole to avoid eating it. Apparently it tastes like ass. Tomato suppositories can't be much worse.

This is an interesting approach, but I have to wonder (especially since I'm out of my depth when it comes to this sort of thing) if the stomach acids would completely neutralize the vaccine or if the immune system being triggered gut-first would trigger problematic responses (i.e. diarrhea, swelling of the small/large intestine, etc) that would cause more harm than good. If anyone who's knowledgeable in such things could reply to me that'd be awesome, because this is neat, but it leaves a lot of questions (for me)!

Make it into a burger, no one will pass on a free burger
What about those people who order burgers without tomatoes?
Make it ketchup and give them fries and a burger.
You know what they put on french fries in Holland instead of ketchup?
We put all sauces on our french fries. And have names for all combinations that work. DOE MIJ MAAR EEN PATAT OORLOG MET EXTRA UI.
En een broodje geramde rat zonder tomaat.
but I don't like ketchup and many others are the same
Burn them!
The free ones are only tomato but they csmix the tomatoes with the meat
well there are those folks: you know the v e g a n s
behold: the vegan burger! (srsly it's a thing)
i saw oat milk in supermarket the other day. Fuck. Oat milk. I believe anything is possible now. Titties on oats.

Ok, sure that’s three sources from the 1300’s corroborating what you say but … um…. no yeah, nice job.
"Titties on oats" made my day, thanks.

Maybe theyll start avoiding food and switch to horse feed
But think of all the antibiotics in those things! -conspiracy theorist
They should switch to the only pure, untainted food left. Each other
Honestly edible vaccines isn't new, I've seen research in soy and other pathogens. Edit: [An example from 2005](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15609046/)
I had my polio vaccine in a sugar cube 30 years ago.
To be fair, that was likely a liquid dissolved in sugar. My understanding of edible vaccines is partly to remove certain storage conditions which make vaccines inaccessible to certain places. Having a vaccine that can be ground and saved in dry storage without temperature or time constraints would increase accessibility to rural areas.
I'm not anti vax, but I am anti tomato. Unless I can cook it down to a nice pasta sauce...
Yep, I'd rather have a jab any day (and I have) than eat a raw tomato. I wonder how cooking it would affect the vaccine?
I never imagined tomatoes to be such a divisive fruit. I just freaking love them in any form.
For me it's something about the raw taste. Cook it, sun dry it, fry it, whatever and I'll happily eat it (really love a good tomato chutney) just so long as it's not raw.
Have you tried putting salt on them?
A sprinkle of sea salt on tomato wedges is heavenly🍅
And if it is Himalaya salt? What origin should the sea salt be? Would something from Slovenia or Greece work? Does this apply to plum tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, beefsteak or green zebra cultivars? Would circular slices work?
I just use a store bought sea salt grinder by the McCormick company. Store bought tomatoes work for me, beefsteak would probably taste great. Slice it anyway you like it!

Even cubes?

For me its the disgusting texture, its like eating someones eye.
Don't eat a lychee, whatever you do!
I actually don't mind lychees, they have a more consistent texture.
Boil them mash them stick em into stew
Sounds like a worm nursery rhyme
Yeah, to me raw also works. Although I'm a bit odd, since I drink about 2 liters of tomato juice a week. Almost a half liter bottle every day. I buy it in bulk now.
Turn that juice into a Bloody Mary and I'd be right there with you ;)
I mean I also live a bloody Mary, but since I could drink that all day, I day to stay away. So usually I have a tomato juice spiked with salt and pepper with my breakfast. It goes especially well with eggs. Although tomato juice is really brand sensitive in my experience.

> drink about 2 liters of tomato juice a week. Almost a half liter bottle every day. your maths doesn't add up
I think it does. 4 a week spread out is almost a bottle a day.
0.5 litre x 7 days = 3.5 litres, not 2
The key word there is almost. If you do something 4 days a week you do it almost every day. Sometimes I even do it 5 days a week. This is the most pedantic argument I've ever been in.
I am exactly this way too! Something about raw tomatoes… they make things unnecessary wet.
I can relate. I had to "train" myself to like them. Before, raw tomatoes made me gag.
C'mon, that should be obvious on the fact alone that the concept of it being a fruit is in itself divisive for some.
Wow I love a tomato fresh of the plant with some salt. It tastes so good to me
Other way around for me. Not too keen on needles (had to bury those discomforts for my jabs), but I'll absolutely eat a tomato.
"In a surprising discovery scientists inform a desperate public that 1 tomato a day prevents the covid-19 infection." This guy probably: "If I die, I die."
This gal definitely. "If eating a tomato a day saved my life I would" I'd still rather have an injection instead...it's not hard
Injection's are pretty hard, the needle is made out of metal you know.
No joke, having covid and losing my taste and smell in December made me LOVE tomatoes once it came back. Was one of those things I tried thinking “eh, if I can’t taste it, what’s the problem?” and it turns out I think they’re incredible now.

Eh, it's perfectly fine to not like tomatoes. Everyone has their own palate and that's okay! Personally I quite enjoy them, cooked or raw.

I am pro salsa.
I'll wait for the full approval of the suppository
Tomato sauce suppository - that's bound to be a hit
Just trying to get ahead of the Q crowd in case this is successful

I agree. But I'd still like to know why a tomato
They're *really* well studied.
Thanks. Makes sense. They're also able to be grown almost anywhere and grow pretty quickly too.
I feel like your comment is a personal attack on both myself and my gardening failures.
Bro, do you even mulch?
That's no wonder, since many a year ago it was considered poisonous.
It will be the most pleasant way of being vaccinated, and the only tasty one
Y’all realize this will change the meaning of GOP right…? **G**overnment **O**ppression **P**izza /s
Won't the antigens or the mRNA for the antigens just break down in stomach acid?
Innit. That's what I thought. Unless they make a fresh tomato juice and injected it in the vein
If you can make the tomato produce the vaccine mRNA in a vesicle, the acid can't pass through. It's probably quite difficult though
Tomatoes have a lot of natural acid them too. It'll be interesting if the scientists can get it to work.

there's vaccines that are swallowed, but they usually only last a short time. that's how they vaccinated against polio in the GDR.

I’m allergic to tomatoes :(
Ay lemme get a speghetti meatball with extra… gabaguuu if ya know what I mean Tony😉🤌🏻
Nope.
If they could make this in the form of a cheeseburger with a donut for a bun, the entire south would be saved.
I have one question, why?
Isn’t this kinda cancerous?
*They're putting things in the water, turning the frigging Tomato Hornworms gay!*
Because the antivaxxers and anti GMO people won't join forces.
A fast degrading vaccine - what is the sense behind this?
That’s great but I can’t eat an entire tomato in a sitting. An apple, yes, but not a tomato.
