Just to reinforce your understanding that not everything you read on the internet is true, here are a couple gems for your perusal.
First off, never eat a pistachio nut that hasn’t opened.
Similar to mussels, if the pistachio hasn’t opened, that means it is dead inside. Don’t eat it.
Another classic is the one about cooking rice. The myth is that if you cook your rice and at the end of the cooking process the rice is too wet all you have to do is add 4 or 5 iPhones to the mixture to absorb the water.
I’ve tried this and I can assure you it doesn’t work.
So the bottom line is, don’t believe everything you read on the Internet.
