super sweet best pal posted:Pineapple's not for pizza, it's for cakes. Also, the pineapple that comes on pizza tends to be the most rubbery, stale garbage pineapple. Did you know you can dissolve a body in a bathtub with 100 cans of pineapple?

The weirdest thing about the pineapple pizza poo poo is that chefs will get really angry about it, but then turn around and put peas and cream in a carbonara.

My grandma, RIP, was a plate mooch. She'd have her own plate of food but would always want a bite off everyone else's for whatever strange psychotic reason. Especially at restaurants. Meek and humble voice from an 80+ year old, "Oh can I try a bit of that?" to everyone at the table. It wasn't a one-off, it was 6-10 times per meal for decades, and it drove people nuts. As a joke, one of her sons bought her a telescoping fork as a gag-gift. Mistake. This was like handing a harpoon to Ishmael. She just stopped asking and started plundering plates from that moment forward. She'd carry that thing like a Texan with an open-carry .45 at a BBQ. It was insane, food being speared and stolen from about 4' across the table. At her funeral, it was held up in memory of her, and everyone had a good laugh.

Do a google search put Reddit in there look up poo poo like “my partner eats off my plate” or “I ask my spouse if they want food then they eat mine” Apparently the inability to share your food and inability to communicate your little baby rage is a common theme

Cyril Sneer posted:I'll confess to being very difficult when it comes to restaurants that make you do all the work. I'm looking at you Mongolian Grill, hot pot, and any other restaurant where I can't just point to something and say "I want that" Mostly same except I do still like Mongolian bbq. Like 90% of the reason I'm going to a restaurant is because they can make a thing better than I can. The ones that really bug me though are Bloody Mary bars. I stopped going to places with those years ago.

EorayMel posted:People getting into increasingly elaborate and/or abstract descriptions for beer such as the basic tried and true "piss" all the way up to "collapsed well water mixed with ginger ale filtered through a magic marker so you can fight telephone poles" is something I will never truly understand, but will also never cease to be amused by To be fair, I would try that last one to experience what it's like to be on bath salts. Pizza, IMO, has no limits. Best pizza I've ever had was tandoori chicken, paneer, goat cheese, bell peppers, spinach, artichoke, onions and a garlic sauce. Probably a little garam masala and ginger in there, too. gently caress, that was good.

I don't like plain yogurt or yogurt with just some fruit in it. But I think it's slowly growing on me, because I keep thinking about eating it but then hate it when I do. I used to be the same about mustard. Then I had to scrape it off some burgers that got my order wrong and I'd think "well I wouldn't ask for this but it's not the worst thing ever" and that eventually led to putting on mustard myself but only a tiny bit for a hint of mustard flavor, to now enjoying multiple different kinds of mustard in normal amounts. My palate (slowly) grew because I kept trying it. I don't know why people can't even do that.

I don't like yellow american style mustard, but i think brown mustards and dijon and spicy mustards are pretty great. I love sweet hot mustard on bierocks. I recently got some krogen brown mustard with horseradish mixed in and its the tits. I'll still ask for my cheeseburger to not have mustard on it at a restaurant unless its one that isn't going to use that neon yellow poo poo.

Hello is this the thread where I talk about steak being well-done tasting good and watch otherwise reasonable people become volcanoes of fury Also good overcooked: eggs, toast, and I suppose theoretically a well-done steak and over-hard egg sandwich on blackened toast Do it ironically posted:The only reason to not be vegan is you're a selfish person who doesn't care about reducing suffering (they are right, incidentally; eating only things that grow/live within walking distance from your home is the only way to not actively kill the planet since like bok choy probably contributes as much to global warming in its epic transcontinental voyage as a cow does)

Rare or medium rare are on a different level for me though, it's almost like a separate food. I won't howl about how you enjoy it though.

I'm the opposite of a picky eater: If I don't like something I'll slowly chew every bite of it to figure out exactly why I don't like it. Often times I'll find a dish utterly repulsive only to figure out, halfway through, that it just needs like a sprig of rosemary to become pretty good.

Most of my dad's side of the family is Hindu, so vegetarian. I have no issue with vegetarian food. But am extremely judgemental about people who only eat salads, or consider that salads and tofu are the only vegetarian options. They are missing out on a world of food. This level also includes meat eaters who sniff their noses at the Vegetarian portion of a menu. I am also judgemental about vegans. I consider them prissy, faddish, performative hippies. Even as I pretentiously order Dhal from an Indian restaurant whilst all around me are eating *sneer* Butter Chicken. I am judgemental about people who fake food "allergies". I know and understand that real allergies exist, and must be accommodated. (Peanuts, people with celiac disease, common allergies etc.) but ever since I met this one woman who was an attention seeking whingbag, it has soured me on people who claim them. This woman I am talking about is an example of another food-thing I am extremely judgey on. People who won't even try different foods. Most notably other countries cuisines, or vegetables/fruits/meats they haven't encountered before. The "eww, I wont eat rabbit. Coz that's not an eating meat.", "That dragon fruit looks funky, it's white with too many seeds. I'm not touching that." "I hate Korean food. What? No I've never had kimchi, I just know I'd hate it." etc. If you are in any way like this we will never be friends. I also hate, and judge unfairly, people like my dad. Who will go on a trip half way around the world, say to Paris, or Tokyo, and when he returns the first and most important story he tells is "I found an Indian restaurant in Tokyo! It was only 5 subway stops away, and the waiter was from Kerala! They didn't serve Rassam like your grandmother used to make though." gently caress off! Why travel half way around the world only to eat stuff that you can eat at home! A similar story is that I was in Paris on Bastille day some years ago, and there was a loving queue outside the Champs-Elysees branch of McDonalds. All of this means that 1)I am a hateful judgemental prick. and also 2) I am one of those people who are weird about food from the OP BrigadierSensible fucked around with this message at 06:06 on Aug 12, 2020 |

Local people like McDonald's too... I judge people who say they are vegetarians but then reveal they eat seafood. 4 people is too many to meet doing this in one lifetime! Own up to the fact you think baby cows are cute and don't know what the gently caress sustainable fishing means instead of trying to moralize over people who eat eggs.

Barudak posted:Local people like McDonald's too... I half agree with you. There are tonnes of reasons why people become/are vegetarians. Religion/medical stuff/don't like the taste of hamburgers etc. So I am not as hugely judgey on people who will eat fish. But if your reason is "cows and pigs are cute, and salmon is slimy", then you can get hosed. I am the same with people who will happily eat hamburgers and/or bacon, but get up on a high horse and go "You ate dog meat in Korea? You monster!".

As a professional chef I take all food allergies very seriously. If someone says they are gluten free, then the professional thing to do is prepare their food separately on a freshly cleaned sanitized surface with freshly cleaned and sanitized utensils, gloves, etc. I have to assume that when you say "gluten free" that a bit of cross contamination will ruin your entire night and possibly cause a medical issue. While I have no issue doing this, and value health and safety above everything, it can be a pain in the rear end when I've stopped the entire service to specially prepare a gluten free option, only to find out later that they've ordered the roux-thickened soup and say that "a little is fine". They could've just said "no bread". Any sort of modification to any item usually results in some sort of conversation between chef and waitstaff. The more these modifications happen, the more conversations that need to be had. Generally you want to reduce this sort of thing because it throws off the flow of your menu thats been designed to be executed in a timely manner. Obviously its our job to accommodate, but the combination of complex dietary fads and a "customer is always right" service model can negatively affect service for everyone in the restaurant. I also dislike that its become the norm to have to keep frozen gluten free bread products on hand. The good ones are typically pricey and take up valuable space. I have no issues with vegans except that they never spend any money and usually require extra attention. I've also found the service at vegan restaurants to be pretty horrible. I appreciate veganism from a moral standpoint, and eat mostly vegetarian myself, but if vegan restaurants are going to succeed they need to drop the hippie dippy service model, and scrub the floors every night.

Well of course the service at a vegan restaurant is awful. They're all anemic and have extremely low energy. Frankly you should be happy they can even lift the plate to carry it to your table.

I think they just come at the business from the direction of "I'm a good cook, and a vegan, I can run a vegan restaurant". 90% of new restaurants fail because service industry employees aren't really seen as skilled tradespeople working in a richly storied industry.

A little ironic given my intent was 'people who are unreasonably weird about food' means people who angrily try to police other people's food choices and get actively frothing mad that everyone else in the universe doesn't have exactly the same preferences they doThe_Continental posted:It sounds like they've got a whole lot more than weird food stuff going on. Sounds like a straight up abusive household. It's definitely the most boomer thing I've ever heard of. It sounds like it's a case of when they set up the ritual when the kids were actually kids and have refused to alter literally any aspect of it despite the table now being entirely grown adults. Actually can tie in with the plate mooch thing where parents are unable or unwilling to buy and prepare enough food for a growing household of kids, so the kids grow up fighting over food because they're hungry all the time and have no guarantee of actually getting enough to eat. Also probably girls especially being taught they're a fat cow if they actually ask for their own plate.
