Submitter never would have thought to do anything other than boil the water in the pot, but has run into quite a few people who boil it in a kettle first, and is curious how common this is!

Tell me about your general region (continent or country) and living density (rural enough that your nearest neighbor is eight miles away, suburban where there's nothing but single-family housing as far as the eye can see, a city with tens of thousands of people per square mile, etc) in the tags!

Metric measurements rounded to the nearest half meter, then nearest tenth of a kilometer.

According to the USDA, a food desert is:

A tract with at least 500 people, or 33 percent of the population, living more than one-half mile (urban areas) or 10 miles (rural areas) from the nearest supermarket, supercenter, or large grocery store.

okay i've got to get this off my chest because i feel like i'm going insane

a herb is a plant with leaves that are used to flavour and/or add aroma to food, either as ingredient or garnish.

a spice is a plant substance such as a seed, bark, root or fruit that is usually dried and used to flavour and/or add aroma to food. spices are not herbs.

an aromatic is a vegetable that is used at the flavour base of a dish, also adding aroma. aromatics are not the focus of the dish, and are added to give background depth. aromatics include onions, garlic (and other alliums), carrots, celery, ginger, turmeric root, and chillies (i.e. peppers). aromatics are not herbs, and neither are they spices.

and while we're here, seasoning by definition refers to adding herbs, spices, salts, sugars, or acids to enhance the flavour of the food, not to add new flavours. good seasoning will merely amplify or bring out what is already there.

i know they're largely insignificant, pedantic distinctions but it's something that really gets my goat lol alright thanks for coming to my ted talk
