While it is eminently enjoyable to rag on the States for a multitude of reasons, I don't think this phenomenon is just confined to your shores as I know I've seen some extremely British meals served in a shoe or a spade or whatever But even when I lived in the UK I never suffered that indignity because I feel like the kind of places that would do that kind of poo poo would have about 300 red flags already warning me off

the actual haute cuisine places were sick of the tacky plating about 10 years ago. nowadays the peeps doin it are copies of copies of copies of copies, like the lava cake goin from haute cuisine to dominos offerin it

With the more ridiculous plating, people usually don't get that weird unless they're charging a higher price, so if you're conscientious about when you're spending extra on food, you'll probably not run into something that weird unless you're actively seeking out weird.

Schubalts posted:Why is there a moldy hockey puck on that burger? that's what you get if you order a veggie burger at places that charge 15$+ for a burger and fries. ye olde vegetable patty, a sad puck of mashed potatoes and steamed peas and carrots, usually deep fried. buy a bag of frozen ones, and you don't have to order more because anyone who eats one won't come back. vegetarian technology has moved to actually tasty plant based burgers, but old chefs set in their beefy ways have not payed attention.

Honestly I'm more than fine with that style of Veggie Burger if it's done right, like the Gardenburger brand you find in the freezer section at the grocery, though I will admit it's the kind of thing that's more appropriate as something you make at home than something you'd buy at a restaurant or at least one any fancier than a diner or little beachside burger shack or something

Dammit, my eyes slid right past that one, and now that you've called it to my attention, I need to make Revenge Nachos to avenge the existence of that abomination. The problem is, I only have potato chips in the house. I'm still gonna do it, because potato chip nachos are still exponentially better than that mess. It's not even a hot mess, you can tell that poo poo arrived room temperature.

Revenge Nachos So, I don't have any fresh ingredients, but I can drat well do better than that restaurant. To start with, I use these semi-hipster avocado oil sea salt ripple cut kettle chips I picked up on a whim, because I know they'll soften in the cooking but still retain a nice crunch that the store-brand thin-cut plain ones will lack. Now, I could just slice government-subsidized pasteurized processed American-style blended cheese food product onto them, toss them in the microwave, and call it a win because they will be better than those offenses to all that claim affinity for Tex-Mex. But I want to overkill these bitches. I start grabbing cans, and remember I have an unopened block of cheddar in the fridge.  Initial sortie. The remaining ingredients stand ready for glory.  I realized I needed some seasoning, but even if I wanted onion, I don't have enough uses for onion to justify cutting one up. So I went out into the garden at 2 AM with a flashlight to pick some chives. So first stage done, but we're not finished yet, now we add a second layer of chips and toppings to turn this into a terrifying tower of nachos to spit in the eye of god. Grate a little more cheese on top and pop it in the microwave for a minute 40.  Finished, and they are absolutely delicious. The ham is a little too salty, I could have offset that by rinsing it or using more tomato. Since of course I didn't use an entire can of anything, the rest of the ingredients are in the fridge and tomorrow I can use them to spruce up some spaghetti sauce or make more of these.

I laud your efforts. Still, I imagine one could make the argument that a properly highbrow version of nachos made with cheddar should involve sodium citrate so you can have a sharp cheddar sauce that melts and dips like Velveeta.

the dog topping looks very similar to when you see human poo poo on the sidewalk, if you threw a wendy's napkin with a poo poo stain on top of it it would be complete.

Meat might, conceivably, be that way, but I am pretty sure if you grind it it stops being that way because you mashed a bunch of germs into it in the process.

A clean cut of muscle without contamination sources can be later ground in a clean grinder without introducing the poo poo bacteria. A lot of your meat will be able to do this but the level of regulation usually doesn't get that exact, especially by the time you're selling all the ground ends or are serving immunocompromised people. Particularly ground ends coming from an industrial slaughterhouse is "oops all surfaces" and you have a pretty good chance of there being at least one piece of poo poo that touched something in there at some point. A healthy person eating well sourced ground meat is gonna be fine. E. Someone is going to point out that poo poo is everywhere. They are true, modern life is living and breathing in poo poo everywhere we go but it's not in amounts that can colonize meat or our guts unless you have serious poo poo issues.

If he was using any sort of seasoning or sauce and not just scooping raw meat into his mouth with his barehands straight from the sweaty plastic container it would be somewhat different. It's not like this was proper beef tartare or carpaccio or something that's actually prepared even if it's not cooked. This is literally a millionaire showing the cheapest and shittiewt meat available into his gullet to make some weirdo nationalist point about the purity of our
