You mean that? Because I'm 99% sure that's grease from the beef mixed with the pasta sauce. It just looks funny because of the angle of the cut, but it definitely looks like it's oozing a bit.

Love burgers, but hate how most of them only require a napkin to clean up after eating? Love nachos, but hate how the chips have clean parts so you have to make an effort to deliberately cover yourself in Nacho-Style Cheez Substance? Love going to restaurants, but hate how standard plating, silverware, and social etiquette prevents you from getting completely covered in your meal, like a starving toddler? DO WE HAVE A MEAL FOR YOU

I was really worried I was going to be the first person to both see it and realize it was a reflection. Thank god for this page. What a madhouse.

Identifying that area as a reflection reduces the apparent height of the spaghetti bolus quite significantly. I was seeing it as another big layer of mystery glop too until I mentally forced the thing to appear flatter to me so I was seeing more of the platter further away from the camera.

The thing that upsets me most about the gooburger is that it's another case of WHERE IS THE loving PLATE?

How can you serve food that you're supposed to smother in sauce on just a flat piece of wood slapped onto the flat table

Cheese sauce all running off the "plate" and into your lap

Poor busboy has to mop up 5 inches of congealed cheesespunk at the end of his shift

that's probably just cheese + calcium citrate, not some reconstituted cheese sauce garbage.

You're probably right, but it doesn't make it any less "eat this to cover yourself and everything you're wearing/carrying in a thin film of cheese sauce"

Why are Americans so obsessed about covering everything in cheese? You take what looks like a perfectly fine burger with a toasted bun, and just cover it in gooey poo poo. Is it the salt content in cheese that makes it more palatable? loving season it right from the start!

I have so many angry questions.

e: In my anger I didn't notice it's from a London restaurant. Still!

They just really like cheese. I remember when I went to Chik fil a and you could just order a side of cheese to dip your fries in. It was awesome.

I really don't like seeing industrial mass-produced food like the cheesecake video. I know it's normal, but it makes me super uncomfortable to actually see it happening.

Real cheese(not that fake 'american cheese' poo poo) rules. :colbert:

But yeah, it's often used as a lazy shortcut to add flavor or make something feel like an indulgance instead of just a regular food.

The restaurant where I work makes a scratch-made queso that's amazing and any time we have a bunch left at the end of the night, the GM of the pizza place next door conveniently swings by to take a pint or so off our hands. She goes back to the pizza place and makes a large pizza with 4+ toppings, then drenches it in queso.

She looks exactly like you think she does.

I pictured more of like, 800 story skyscrapers of cheddar, reaching high into a sky polluted by cheese farts, where the night is lit by millions of neon signs, all of which are shaped like different cheese and they all say "CHEESE" also I have a visor that let's me project a virtual self into the Cheese Grid.

Yeah, maybe it's just me, but I'd just drink the goddamn mug of cheese as a side. I'd regret it in a few hours, but who cares? Cheese.

I'm actually kinda sad that "Cheese tea with ground beef boba" just reminded me of an actual food I eat so maybe that bit was a personal attack on myself.

Also I had oreos dipped in green tea for breakfast, glass houses and all that.

Are they Maori? Cause a boil up is a legitimate dish that is 100% AFP. Delicious, but is about as visually attractive as a car crash.

The boil-up looks like pork and greens and potatoes and some kind of broth? I'd eat it. Looks a little like a bone-in version of Grünkohl, which is probably AFP but also delicious as gently caress.
