I'm a bottom shelf bloke, I'm talking $9 a bottle Evan Williams tier, I don't like spending $ on alc/ however, my friend introduced me to knob creek, and I'm like fuuuk, that's good. Now I'm spending more and I hate that.Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
Elijah Craig is really good. It's my favorite Bourbon Whiskey.
For me, it's half gallons of Bulleit.
>>20934546KC is mid af, even for big corp swill. It's the whiskey I would recommend to someone wanting to try whiskey for the first time after they drank nothing but Zima their entire life.There is much better out there for the same price.
>>20941981Give us a few examples of whiskey that's better than KC for the same cost then
>>20941962I've really come to like the single barrels from elijah craig.
Please be serious for once.
>>20942071i look like this and say this
>>20942071I would buy this and put it on my wife's nipples

anybody eat this stuff?
>>20937110No thanks, I don't like to eat my magic eye pictures.
>>20937110italian here, they're pretty common where i live, normal cauliflowers and broccolis are way better
>>20937110>a cauliflower and a broccoli had a babyThat happens all the time, since they're both cultivars of the same plant
>>20942053Yeah, they're both members of the cruciferous family, descendants of the same plant, so this is basically incest
>>20942124>descendants of the same plantNo, they are literally the same species of plant.>this is basically incestMost reproduction tends to happen between members of the same species. It's a little different than incest.
These things are straight garbage compared to gas stoves
>>20940900>If you splatter on an electric stove you have to get it spotless before turning the heat on.No you don't. You don't even need to spend much effort on keeping the heating spot clean, and zero effort on the rest of it. If you wanted. Lucky it's super easy to clean as it's a smooth hard glass surface.
>>20940967>Yeah you can't light cigarettes on these like coils or gasYou absolutely can if you wanted to.
>>20940755At least it won't blow up or kill you in your sleep.
>>20942085t. koreanDo you also believe fans will kill you?
>>20942095>Do you also belie-ACK!
In May, Red Lobster filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy after a tumultuous few years. Buca Di Beppo followed suit this summer. Now, another popular restaurant chain is heading down the same path.Late last week, anonymous sources told Bloomberg that TGI Fridays was preparing to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and was in talks with lenders who could possible keep the company afloat in the meantime.While the restaurant chain is reportedly working with attorneys on bankruptcy preparations, there has yet to be an official statement from TGI Fridays or its legal representation.In September, the company lost the majority of its assets after failing to file documents to bondholders before the required deadline. Several days later, UK-based operator Hostmore decided to back out of its plans to purchase TGI Fridays and quickly closed 35 restaurants. It also filed for the UK's version of bankruptcy.The company's financial woes are nothing new, however. The restaurant chain has grappled with slow sales and closures—including nearly 50 in the U.S. alone just since the start of 2024. There are 215 locations still in operation, but that's a far cry from the 386 restaurants that were in business in May 2020.This doesn't necessarily mean the end of TGI Fridays as we know it, though. A lot can happen even after a restaurant chain files for bankruptcy. Red Lobster, for example, is trying to making a comeback of its own. In July, RL Purchaser LLC, which is backed by Fortress Investment Group, put up $376 million to take over the seafood chain's assets. The deal was later approved by the courts in September, providing a green light for restructuring.Red Lobster is certainly not a lost cause; Fortress has a history of reviving flailing chain restaurants from the trenches of bankruptcy. All of which were revived after financial troubles. Maybe they can swoop in and save TGI Fridays next.>https://www.delish.com/food-news/a62696743/tgi-fridays-bankruptcy/#

>>20930966They use to sell some chicken parm with a side of tomato fresh mozzarella Caprese salad and spinach filled pasta some 10 years ago. I miss it dearly.
>>20930968>>20934599Yes, they are God awful and these conglomerates and ALL of their employees, every single one, can get fucked.
>>20937505right. but it used to be paying a little more than fast food for a small increase in quality and a big increase in portion size that made it worthwhile. now its beyond pointless
>>20932337Which means the trailer park is empty. That's the best time for you to sneak in and get you some free neon Coors signs. Just watch out for the chained dogs.
Western restaurants should have cute mascots like Double Cheese chan
>>20939999answer honestly
>>20939512That's a good thing. Europe could learn from them. Even if they just took to to an extent where they don't outright treat paying customers as if they were pieces of shit that just went to the restaurants to annoy the staff, it would be nice.
The secret ingredient is mold
>>20935496New mascot just dropped!

I'm ordering Chinese from here. What are you having?
>>20939934if you like reading unhinged people venting its kind of funny, especially if its a place you know
>>20941091Oh no Karen
Karen is based. Don't order take-out. Eat whole foods.
>>20938295Looks invitingMaybe a little pile of scrap and garbage right there on the grass for the right flair...Wouldn't be surprised if it was actually some of the best Chinese food you ever ate tho, from an inconspicuous place like this.>Diamond GardenMore like>Diamond Garage

I love Newman's sauces. But more importantly I love how he dresses up in a different outfit depending on the sauce type
>>20941917based. the only one they had to remove for racism
>>20941921Hood Newman on the 40 would go hard
>>20941917asians didnt ask for thiswe could see the sovl in it and know of newman's philanthropic legacy
>>20941923Agreed
>>20941805Just like mom used to buy.
Never liked them.Tastes like a slimy floppy uncooked watery paprika.Tried it again recently, still have that stance.Can consume them in single dice quantities in a doner or something, but I don't like them neither whole, or as slices, especially in a sandwich or a burger.The irony is I'm the only one in my family who doesn't even so much as like Ketchup.Any of you got your own stories like this to share? Whether it be foods or drinks.
>>20941343Many are yes, but not from all places. But you are correct, home grown tomatoes are delish when you pick em right off the vine same day.
Cosmic brownies. I like brownies and chocolate and even shitty convenience store food, but these are gross.
>>20941341Idk i don't come to this board to post about "things I hate" because that's super low energy behaviour. I have no desire to bring bad vibes to this board. I prefer to talk about foods I like, and hear good recipes and stories from other anons about food and cooking they enjoy.I'm all about positivity and creativity, basically. Maybe give it a try?

Why would anyone make potato salad when they can make egg salad instead? It's the same thing but better
>>20937020If you try to make me peel a boiled egg I will shoot you with my gun
>>20937990Sorry you're mentally ill
>>20937755they are

>>20941741>never 100% litthis was the best thing about the 90s for me right here, everywhere had appropriate mood lighting. now everything is bright as fuck, all walls are plain white, and you feel so cold walking into any place now
>>20941991>appropriate mood lightingCan't take selfies or make TikTok vids like that grampa. It's time to move over.
these are the only fast food places I patronize:El Pollo LocoDaves Hot ChickenIn N OutPanda ExpressDominos Hungry HowiesThoughts?
Only Taco Bell and Zaxbys but I just moved to a place with more options. It'll probably largely stay the same, but maybe I'll get 1-4 pizzas a year.
>>20939454Keep seething
you are a patronizing son of a bitch
>>20936977your pic says it all
>>20939454/thread
For me, it's Pipeline Punch. The best Monster Energy flavor.
I miss the old Monster Assault that tasted like rockets/smarties
>>20938349Reminded me of what americans refer to as "Blue raspberry".Had it in Greece they don't sell it here in Germany
Trying it now
>>20941925Nice ride
>>20941977Thanks. I give the guava 7/10, not the best flavor but unique enough that it will be in standard rotation
things to add to your ramen if you're a lazy fuck>inb4 "fried egg"that's separately cooked, not lazy enough. i recently started adding seaweed, soy sauce, and chives, but i feel like this rabbit hole probably goes way deeper than that. also this is just a general ramen thread so you can post about fried eggs actually
>>20941621The laziest toppings that require no prep are menma, beni shoga or other pickles, corn (just add frozen kernels from a bag with enough time for them to heat up, butter or lard, and nori.
Get a carver ham from Sam's club or Costco and slice off big chunks of it. Just got one today for 2.99 or you wait until Thanksgiving and Xristmas and get a whole spiral sliced ham for 99c a pound and separate it out and use that.
>>20941849
Bros I love instant ramen so much, and I love this little guy.
>>20941621I miss Franku so much it's unreal.
Now I feel all woozy like after my first cigar. Is it the solanine? Nicotine? Some other -ine? It's actually pretty mellow. I feel laid back.
>>20940386
>>20938598Are tomatillos just green tomatoes, or is it a different species?
>>20938598>>20940187out of the two, it sounds like solanine, could be something else or a combination there of thoughthe amount of nicotine you'd get from washing them would be too low to even feel, its actually hard to feel low amounts of nicotine unless you're actively attaining it, i.e., chew / pipe >>20941386totally different species
>>20939885So are tomatoesAs are eggplantsJust because something shares a family with something else does not mean they behave the same way.
>>20941386Related but different, they're actually more closely related to gooseberries than tomatoes.
