David Lebovitz’s ginger molasses cake, if anyone’s interested. Can’t really recommend the recipe since I left out an important(??) ingredient, but tastes amazing - very spicy and festive.

About a billion “adventurous” people eat tofu every day.

Think it’s bland? Try mapo tofu with enough Szechuan pepper to make your head buzz, or five spiced braised tofu.

3.1% is the case fatality rate, which only accounts for deaths among known cases and is thus highly dependent on testing. Estimates for the infected fatality rate are around 0.6%, varying depending on the age distribution of the population. I agree with your overall point though.
