    Oneth

  2. luddite says:

    Doesn’t look very attractive

  3. ivey says:

    does that mean that it was microwaved?

  4. XxChumxX says:

    Wonder how they manage to translate three korean words into such a long and incomprehensible sentence…

  5. Wesley says:

    자장(jajang) can mean both ‘magnetic field’, which is more commonly written as ‘자기장(jagijang)’, and ‘black bean sauce’, commonly but wrongly written as ‘짜장(jjajang)’, which is what it was supposed to mean in the picture.

    밥(bap) means steamed rice. So the correct translation would be ’steamed rice with black bean sauce’.

  6. Nathreee says:

    Thanks, that explains everything. It’s so nice to see a comment that makes sense.

    • luddite says:

      And thus rendering the humour null and void… killjoy

      • someguy says:

        a joke is usually only funny once. for example: you see the picture and lol. next time, its not funny anymore and youre curious how it was funny to start with.

        but youre just an idiot
        problem solved!

  7. Anonymous says:

    Well, I just though it was geek food.

  8. Sprite101 says:

    I’m confused. Which one’s north?

  9. Roy O'Madness says:

    “Please make such pleasure through happy of lovingly made first meal, but beware in contrast of such magnetically attractive peripherals of such value: mustn’t use closely for avoidance of danger.”

  10. brian t says:

    Maybe I’m a geek, but… that looks like the magnetic field layout inside a Tokamak fusion reactor, viewed in cross-section. See http://www.cfi.lu.lv/teor/tokamak.jpg for an example.

    • tinascratch says:

      There’s no maybe about it.
      But yes, it does.

      • Hongbao says:

        tina’swhatsit is right!
        It does!
        And brian, you win the prize for best researched comment of the day.

        BTW-eating at a Korean food stall in Taiwan, they always put a fried egg on top of the mound of rice and whatever-else-I-ordered.

  11. fnnkybutt says:

    Wow… that’s what i’m cooking today – except with fried plantains instead of black bean sauce. So, I guess it’s not really what I’m cooking today.

  12. Izzy Pop says:

    Now I have to check my black bean sauce for magnets.

  13. D.R. says:

    I love the Magnetic Fields! Is this a new song?

    • badcat says:

      “I Die” or “It’s a Crime” – take your pick.

    • Don says:

      I was going to comment that there is a wonderful band called The Magnetic Fields but ya beat me to it D.R. They have a great album called 69 Love Songs but I don’t think they ever sang about eggs and bean sauce. LOL!

  14. NameAlreadyInUse says:

    Jean Michel Jarre would love this dish.

  15. Astro says:

    That’s the most sickening thing I’ve seen all day.

  16. braeduin says:

    Obviously the restaurant owner got a crappy electronic dictionary for their birthday.

  17. La verga de Dios says:

    I like my magnetic field with Ketchup

  18. something says:

    That meal looks like barf, magnetic field or no.

  19. norm says:

    I don’t know Magnetic Fields. Kim Fields played Tootie on the “Facts of Life”.

  20. deadasdisco says:

    mmm…. magnets.

  21. Soylent says:

    Perhaps the redish-brown goo is a delicious magnetite/hematite ferrofluid?

  22. hblahh says:

    That meat looks like a disgustingly massive blood clot.
