A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

This is a perfectly executed shower thought. No notes.

I don't have any inherent disagreement, but I feel like I'm gonna need you to show your work. Can't you have beef pepperoni? that feels very close to milk, and only a step away from cream.

I tried it, it's basically garlic flavored vanilla ice cream. I'm glad I tried it, would not seek it out again.

Both are animal fat products

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 45 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Dude your mom’s an animal fat product

[–] DelightfullyDivisive@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

...and I like eating all three...

[–] boredtortoise@lemm.ee 3 points 2 months ago

And all three abandoned me no wait what

The culinary opposite of pepperoni is coconut milk.

[–] TootSweet@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The culinary opposite of coconut milk is haggis.

[–] Nurse_Robot@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

The culinary opposite of haggis is leafy greens

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Coconut milk ice cream

[–] lord_ryvan@ttrpg.network 15 points 2 months ago (1 children)

No it's not

They're both Italian, ice cream can be non-sweet, there must be bigger opposites!

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Wouldn’t it be gelato vs pepperoni?

[–] dwemthy@lemdro.id 15 points 2 months ago

Claims made without evidence can be dismissed without evidence

[–] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 14 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Not a question, but I challenge you to explain yourself.

[–] owenfromcanada@lemmy.world 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)
[–] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You've either had too much pepperoni, or too little ice cream...

Either way, you owe us all an explanation. Or ice cream. I'll accept ice cream.

[–] netvor@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Tangent: one if my roommates discovered a recipe for an avocado-based chocolate mouse. She hates it when I call it chocolate guacamole, guacolate, or chocomole.

[–] kamiheku@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 months ago

I'd say they're in a somewhat similar realm of consistency so no

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Together? Pepperoni flavored ice cream? Ice cream flavored pepperoni? Where do you draw the line? 🤔

[–] BaroqueInMind@lemmy.one 4 points 2 months ago

... t-together?

[–] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 months ago

You know, I ain't mad at that.

Don't agree, but I can dig the vibe.

Now, I would have said salad, personally, as the opposite of ice cream, or maybe barbecue.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

They’re both high in fat so no, it’s not.

[–] Randomgal@lemmy.ca 6 points 2 months ago

Why would you say something so brave, yet so controversial?

[–] Boozilla@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Key lime pie makes a great dessert after spicy Mexican food.

[–] Siegfried@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

And here i am, thinking that the opposite of icecream was Surströmming

Bonus: at one point in time, there was ice cream served with pepperoni Apparently

[–] JustZ@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

You caught some heat in the comments but this is completely true.

[–] Ibaudia@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)
[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

No, you can have almonds for dessert.

[–] Ibaudia@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

If you're Italian and therefore demonic then maybe (/s)
