Letting employees eat the fish cracklings and track home bonemeal on their clothes seems unamerican. Those are valuable co products to sell to the cat food factories.

My sister lives in Arizona because she makes terrible life choices, and the last time I visited we went to a combination Long John Silvers/ Taco Bell. Hush puppies and Mexi-melts are a winning combination.

Sadly, there are no Long John Silvers left near me. And Taco Bell stopped selling Mexi-melts. Life is cruel.



The combo LJS/TB recently downgraded to just a Taco Bell. I feel your pain.

Trip report: I have eaten six heads of roasted garlic in the last 24 hours. My gf hasn’t mentioned any smells coming from me besides the usuals. If she does end up noticing, I plan to roast more garlic to cover the smell.

Nah dawg.

They were fairly small heads but when they’re roasted it’s nowhere near as harsh and as far as I can tell it doesn’t have much effect on breath/body odor.

But I’m not going anywhere for the next few days so idgaf

when they put the uncooked breaded whatever in the fryer, some of the breading breaks away into globules which get fried and turn into those things. terrible for you of course but they taste good.

I briefly worked at a factory where we made those frozen breaded fish triangles that you might buy in the frozen food section. They were breaded on a wire mesh conveyer belt that went through an oven and then directly through a flash freezer. In between, they were inspected for quality. All around them on the conveyer were those little guys. They were considered waste. You could stand there and eat then off the line in infinite numbers like an I Love Lucy sketch

It was the only thing about that job that wasn't a nightmare

This is peak Americana and I love it.

Hushpuppies are one of those things that I always wanted to like and have reason NOT to, but I'm just not a fan :(
Kinda weird because I'm a GIANT fan of falafel, which, at least in partial theory are similar (deep fried starch balls), but hushpuppies I try every3,4 years or so and just shrug 'em off

All this garlic talk is again ignoring a very tasty part of the garlic plant. The stalk.

Again, not America, but in Korea I always loved the chopped up garlic stalks that would be put out as part of the side dishes.

I’ve always heard that they originated as dog treats; people would toss them to their dogs to keep them from begging while the humans ate the “real” food. No idea if that’s accurate though

The legend is that civil war troops (not sure what side) would throw fried dough to the dogs to chew on and keep them quit. Or something like that.

I was a Captain Dee's man myself. They had actual bottles of malt vinegar on the table and bottomless pump of tarter and cocktail sauce. I could never even take a bite now. Back then that was the only "fish n Chips" I knew.

Long John Silver's was always trash though.

If you like lovely seafood, Pittsburgh has the Original Oyster House, which has been in the same spot since 1870. The food is not good, but the building is something else.









they serve everything on paper plates and the raw oysters come out in little plastic cups in a sea of hot sauce.

DIRECTIVE 236: Promote pro-social values
The Rathskeller in Chapel Hill NC is long closed. It was a dirty, weird rear end restaurant in a basement where you had to go down a dingy alley to access it. Different rooms were themed in unique ways, such as a cavern room or a circus room. It was generally grimy and the food wasn't good. It ruled.









They had a legendary "lasagna" that I believe is a bowl of cheese
