        Meh, I always found that a bit rigid. I don’t have a problem with a 60 and a 30 year old person getting it on if they both want it. Maybe something simple like “Don’t try to exploit immature people, you massive creep.”

            I get that, and agree with that, I was just replying to the often cited “rule” mentioned by the commenter above, that I feel some are taking too seriously.

            Edit: Oh, wait, you’re the commenter above. Well, I’ll just leave my comment like it is, I guess.

                • My real curiosity pique here is whether or not you really like vegan cheesecake. There are 2 deserts that I countenance absolutely no needing with: one is Philadelphia cream cheesecake, and the other is crème brûlée. Like, every chef in every restaurant has to out their personal touch on crème brûlée and add something: oh, I’m so original, I’ll add sage, or habeñero, or paint shavings, or some shit. It’s: heavy creme, egg yolks, and sugar; that’s it! Stop fucking with my desert!

                  But we have a dairy allergy in the family, and while I won’t countenance bastardized crème brûlée, we do eat the occasional vegan cheesecake, especially if it’s not trying to be a cream cheese cheesecake. They’re not bad - Daiya makes a decent New York style one - but I don’t know I like them so well I’d choose it as a username.

                  So, I wonder: are you passionate about vegan cheesecake, or is there irony in there?

                    I’ve never tried Philadelphia Cheesecake before I went vegan, but had a penchant for New York Cheesecake.

                    I used to dread vegan cheesecake because I felt it was never quite the same, but over the years, the recipes seem to have gotten better, or I’ve gotten better at finding good ones, so I’m pretty at peace with it now.

                    The actual reason my account’s named that is actually that I was eating a piece of vegan cheesecake when I made it, though.

                    Now nice crème brûlée is heaven, and I haven’t yet dared try my hand at a vegan version. Maybe I’ll try it soon, just because this reminded me of that still being on my list.
