Background, I have a soy allergy and I’m looking to eat less meat or possibly go vegetarian. I came across this article that includes tempeh, an item made with soybeans even by its own description.
It’s like the entire Web went to shit in 6 months.
Last week I was researching hot tubs and saunas and so forth, as I was gifted a 10 visit spa pass.
Top result was rambling and obviously AI generated, packed with keywords and very little information presented in haphazard way, that was telling me that the ideal water temperature for maximum therapeutic benefit in a hot tub is 130-140F.
Yeah no problem. Once I get used to 140F water I’ll work my way towards something hotter, perhaps boiling peanut oil.
its time to start filtering search results to pre-2020 only or all you get is garbage
Hey, that’s actually not a half bad idea I think I’ll try it!
However this brings the new concern to the surface, I’ve recently read that Google is starting to purge older results. I have seen this personally when I have tried to find articles or subjects I know exist, I know I found on Google to begin with, and they have completely disappeared from Google.
Well stop using Google then obviously. Have you tried DuckDuckGo?
Have you considered that this is not a “me” problem.
I would absolutely pay for a way to block AI generated content from showing up on my browser.
The first ad blocker to offer this wins.
This would require some sort of compliance standard that people need to mark their content as AI generated.
Articles like this are a plague. I don’t know about google but DDG seems to serve me these when ever I’m looking for general information about something. The only good thing is that they’re so bad that it’s usually easy to tell but that wont be the case for long.
Lately when I’m looking for tutorials, my search results are overwhelmingly weird question and answer style “articles”, akin to chatgpt prompts, some of which are barely related to what I’m looking for. I’m having a hard time looking for articles written by a human. In fact oftentimes I question whether or not the article is written by a machine or a person who sucks at writing.
Why would you link to it? Use an archive site or just post a screenshot.
You could try seitan. It is basically pure gluten. People say it has a very meat like texture (I’ve never tasted meat so I cannot tell you for certain).
Hail seitan
Seitan is delicious. My mother back in the 70s used to bake it with onions, garlic and tamari. It was one of my favorite things to eat, rigoreus makrobiotic diet and all.
Yeah - I can confirm, it is pretty much identical - I can’t tell the difference
Well chickpeas are underrated asf for one, fry em with oil and add a little salt and it’s like vegan bacon… Well, vegan bacon spheres. Hummus is a chickpea dip that is to die for, flavor-wise and it’s really easy to make fresh + keeps for weeks. Highly recommend mushrooms and nuts too for when you need something a little heartier.

Can you get Quorn where you live? Pretty decent. Ironically, I’m allergic to it - so no good for me.
Cooking with seitan, chickpeas and beans can be really tasty. Myself, I’ve had more luck with trying new recipes versus trying to replace meat in meat dishes. I’ll do the latter every now and then though, because I still like the taste/dish.
