I had the weirdest fucking dream where I was working at my old job and a bunch of people I vaguely know on here all came in together and bought a giant hamburger platter (I worked at target??) and then left without the food. My single coworker and I had to feed the whole thing to the floor to put the ingredients back because our manager didn't like waste
#we had no sauces sorry guys#only one person gave me a tip and it sucked#it was very strange. nobody had human heads but i dont remember what they were#wjen i say giant hamburger platter i mean there was like 50+ burgers and a mountain of fries on a table sized tray that i had to carry out

More British words because I thought words like carboot and bin lorry was normal:
Chuffed: This is when we're really happy- like 2am-singing-karaoke-happy. Odd I know!
Brolly: Umbrella. Yeah this one's a bit odd as well. I've never used it personally but some of my family always say "chuck us the brolly" or something along those lines.
Crisps: Potato chips. American's PLEASE don't kill me I want to live
Bucketin' down: A term used to describe heavy rain!
Gutted: Extremely disappointed. I often use this- very loudly, might I add- to the annoyance of my family
Bonnet: Hood of a car. I find this REALLY strange and have never used it myself.
So there's some British words! I hope you enjoyed them!🙂
REMINDS ME, another thing that was wild to me was how "chippy" gets applied to way more than just places that sell fries
I went thinking I understood everything, like, "Ok. Chips = Fries. Crisps = Potato Chips. Got it." But then partner would say, "wanna go to a chippy"
Me in my head: (wow you really like fries dont ya)
But apparently the truth is... that's just what they were calling a small restaurant you don't sit down at. Like a takeout place. A chippy can sell chinese food. A chippy can sell fries and hot dogs.
This took me an embarassingly long time to realize. I really just thought partner wanted fries constantly. I was beginning to believe there were special, hidden fry places that I just wasn't noticing.
I also found out that "spanner" is unironically a light insult but considering the fact I thought they were a Fanatical Fry Fiend for at least a week I probably deserved it. I WAS being a proper spanner.
#We did get loaded fries at some point tho#And they were good fries#Cheesy and delicious with some gravy#Bone babble#To be fair to me though I was kinda thinking of the specialty meatball places that pop up here#My area actually has several meatball specialty places. They just sell fancy meatballs#That's the entire menu#Different kinds of meatballs with different meats. Fishballs. Venisonballs. Wagyuballs.#So like. You could write a book on what I don't know#Maybe England just has an obsession with turning different vegetables into fries. I thought. Like a fool.#Nope. I live in a place with a very special kind of meatball-induced brainrot.#And chippy simply did not mean what I thought it meant#Oh to be in the alternate reality where I went to The Chippery and got to sample different types of vegetable fries#Mmmm#And fancy sauces#Also I did enjoy thank u#The only one partner wasn't familiar with was Bucketin Down. Probably because their preferred term is Pissin#Pissin Down

It always seems a bit unbalanced on The Great Food Truck Race when there will be multiple teams who are cooking a wide variety of complex dishes with 10 different components and a bunch of prep work, and then there's that one team who like... exclusively serves plain crepes with some premade nutella on them, or plain waffles with just some whipped cream and cut up strawberries lol...
#AND then they'll be the winning team or whatever and its like... wow... imagine that... I wonder how its possible that they can get#more dishes out faster than the other teams... hrrmm.... lol#Not that they aren't still doing work like. obviously it's still hard and there's still a sales component and other stuff to be done#but It's just kind of unbalanced seeming when one group is serving like grilled shrimp sandwich with 3 homemade sauces and a#slaw and two sides and the other people are like... slicing fruit and drizzling a bottle of hersheys chocolate syrup on top of some thing#they just threw in a waffle maker for a few minutes#You see the footage of the teams cooking and everyone is like prepping a ton of different things and meat and vegetables and they have#boiling pots and pans and fryers going and tossing stuff in bowls and compiling these multi component dishes#and then That One Team is always just casually slicing bananas or doing some whipped cream in a bowl gbjhbhj#They usually dont even make their own caramel or chocolate sauces or anything. Nutella out of a jar babey!#So all you're really Making is like... whipped cream. and some sort of batter (waffle. crepe. etc)#If I got placed in a competition like that and I found out one of my opponents just sold waffles or pancake sticks or etc#like that I would just be like... okay.. I'm out then. bye. OR I would pivot and be like.. right I shall remove all complexity from my menu#whatsoever and just start selling plain balls of fried dough with powdered sugar or plain fries with nothing on them or something lol#update: OH my god.. one of these teams on a newer season is selling a 'bonus add on' where you can add#cinnamon sugar and caramel syrup (possibly not even home made by them???? just from a bottle) for $5 extra on your order#If I bought a $12 waffle from a food truck and they were like 'hey do you want to upgrade? for only $5 we'll drizzle a teaspoon#of caramel and sprinkle a little sugar and cinnamon on there!' I feel like I would cancel my order and walk away.#that is a $1 add on at MOST.. for a freaking DRIZZLE of caramel sauce LOL#and of course this team is in the top 3... squirrel.... come ON...#Which I know all these shows are fake and bad and whatever. I dont watch them seriously. I think I liked the first few seasons#but then anything past like season 4 (or whenever they started having established people who already ran food trucks on there#instead of taking a bunch of peope who had never run a food truck before and giving them one - which is a much more equal footing#premise to me) I have just been increasingly annoyed at and I really just have the show on for background noise#whilst doing chores or something and am not genuinely paying that much attention but... my god.. At least try to pretend its fair lol#WHICH I KNOWW... you can say 'well the other teams could do similar if they wanted.' or blah blah. tehcnically it's THEIR choice to#make stuff from scratch and not sell a bunch of packaged frozen chicken wings dropped into a fryer over a shitty 6min waffle or etc.#but... I will never respect a $5 for 1tbsp of caramel sauce type of situation.. even if they win.. you will always be losers in my heart#So many teams with real cooking skill & good concepts go home to the 'slap nutella on fried dough' people... how...

Every time I have to settle for Wendy's over the restaurant I was planning to go to, I'm shunted into a fucking circus and my chances of escaping with a semblance of edible food is a toss up.
#and like im not gonna give them a bad review and get someone fired#so you all get to hear me gripe here#they were acting like they were slammed but i only saw like 4 orders come in the entire time i was there#they were out of bbq sauce#i just ordered a biggie bag with a plain burger#they made my burger in 5 minutes#i stood there 20 more minutes watching it get stone cold#then i think someone competent started her shift on the hour#because she noticed the time on my receipt#threw away my old burger and had fresh food out in a couple minutes#french fries do not taste good with sweet and sour sauce.#also im on a work trip so i need to keep my receipts#i made it clear at the beginning that i needed my receipt#and they were like 'we need it to fill the order can you wait' and im like ok as long as I get it#the first guy filled my order and immediately threw away my receipt#i had to ask him to fish it out of the trash because I NEED IT#and then i had to ask him twice for the drink that comes with the meal

In a turn of shocking events absolutely stunning no one more than myself, I might actually enjoy cooking and not only that, be good at it
#it’s like a switch just flipped or something it’s crazy#cooking genuinely used to be in my top 10 most hated activities#but these past couple days I’ve been loving it?#I wonder if the secret is that I’m ACTUALLY cooking#as in like making things from scratch and not relying on premade frozen and stovetop meals#like on Saturday I made a ran of ribs#(made bbq sauce from scratch and everything!)#and then shredded the meat for tacos#they were delicious! and I loved the process of it!#they were so yummy I brought the leftovers to work for lunch the next day!!!!#I’ve *never* done that before#last night I made pasta#and while the pasta was premade (I don’t think I’ll ever reach a point where I’m making pasta from scratch regularly lol)#(I would like to give a shot eventually though)#I made the sauce myself and actually grated fresh Parmesan cheese instead of using the powdered shit#and it was so yummy!!!!#today a friend is coming over and I’m gonna make her fried rice with some of the leftover rib meat#I woke up this morning and first thing made French toast and bacon#not frozen French toast like I actually turned the stove on#tomorrow night I am planning on making Turkey meatloaf with glazed carrots and some peas#what is HAPPENING#this used to be HELL for me and now I’m enjoying it#and food tastes???? good????#this is insane who was gonna tell me food could taste good??????#I used to hate food and only ate when I needed to#is this what cooking from scratch does???? it makes it taste good?????#mannnnnnn#but anyways yes I’m loving it I’m loving the process and it’s tasting good#I haven’t had a horrible accident where something tastes awful yet#(I expect it will happen eventually haha but so far!!!)

not trying to dox myself here so don't look up where i live or i'll place a curse upon your house but there's a laotian restaurant in my area and it is so good...
#sasha speaks#admittedly i've only tried. one thing from them so far. But#that one thing is very very good (fried chicken with garlic herb rice and salad with sweet chili dipping sauce)#and the rest of the menu looks super good too i want to try like half of it over the course of many visits#(the other half i will ignore politely because i don't eat seafood)

everyone's been making a fuss about British Chinese food this week and im honestly so lost bc after days of seeing everyone like "oh my god how could they eat THAT" with no context i FINALLY saw someone from england unpacking their chinese food and it was like. fried rice and beef and broccoli and mini egg rolls like i didn't see whats. so fuss worthy.
#i mean he also had a side of fries and put curry sauce on them which was like the only difference bw that and american chinese food#and im going to be honest you guys that doesn't sound that bad. that sounds like food.#certainly not worth blowing the entire clock app up over it... what am i missing#avpost#if anyone has more context on what the issue is with the food...#it didn't even look that unseasoned! like did i just happen to see the one guy who went to a good place or what.

It's such a shame that it's bot socially acceptable to eat/drink condiments directly, you gotta eat some sort of food with it
#It's the most tragic social construct after gender roles#I don't particularly like fries so I only eat them with sauce#I'd drink Red Robin campfire mayo like it's water if society would allow it#dipping sauce#sauces and condiments#french fries

the nickname fries is SO funny because my username before this was something related to ketchup. Ketchup and fries.... I want it now
FSSSHKKJGFFF WAIT RLYY 💀 woww i must be like psychic or smth.. fries n ketchup !!
#i must be honest tho. in real life i do not like ketchup as a condiment :(#my love for tomatoes doesnt extend very far beyond very smooth spaghetti sauce (no chunks of tomato .bad texture) (only tolerable bc Pasta)#fries however are very epic 👍i have no qualms with French fries#asks :O#kat post

Americans, what is the thing about Five Guys? It is hands down the worst chain restaurant I’ve ever been in. It markets itself like its pub-fare burgers, and charges more than a small independent pub would charge for a burger that’s the same quality as a McDonalds burger while touting that they’re ‘soooooo much better’. Like why is it now the go-to “good” burger joint now it’s shite
#Five guys burger and fries: £12#The pub round the corner from me Ultimate Stacked burger plus a drink plus steak cut chips plus sauce: £11#The five guys burger was not even good. Like if they were priced the same I’d still go to McDs over five guys#I only went bc my friend really wanted to try it due to internet hype. He ended up apologising to me for taking me there it’s that shit#Weatherspoons carries better tricking burgers than five guys

living above two restaurants would be more dangerous if they both weren’t incredibly overpriced
#i can get two pizzas a side and a drink delivered for what downstairs charges for 1 large specialty#and the downstairs chinese ive heard is mid so like. lol#the scent of pizza/garlic bread/fried things/asian sauces is always billowing on tho#stoners nightmare tbh my munchies only get exasverated by the fact#im surroinded by a constant moasma of dlicious foods

steaktake more like misteak
#for the record i dispise puns theyre stupid and cringe and immature and lame#so im not sure why i wrote that#but anyway my point stands#people are so insufferable like 'yeah raw meat is so great cooking it is disgusting anyone who disagrees is intolerable'#i literally saw a meme on facebook saying that#like enjoy your disgusting posh raw meat i dont care#but to have to gall to act like not only is it better but people who eat their food the normal human way that fire was invented to do so#and what helped make people actually intelligent and not just animals#and then these posh snobs go and act like normal people are the weird ones and are somehow all insufferable people#like nah i think youv got it the wrong way mate#stake is well overrated anyway even when its actually cooked#like i know you can put sauce on it or whatever but its such a weird way to eat and still sort of bland#like meats way nicer when its cut into smaller pieces or minced and mixed in with other stuff#the way of eating steaks so weird and annoying and its not like it comes with good sauce anyway#and i even like lots of plain foods#well maybe it doesnt count if its deep fried but also stuff like mash or beans or the nice sort of plain pasta or bread#though my main opinion on food is i dont want to eat the same thing all the time#like i dont hate steak or anything its just too popular other things are objectively superior#i dont need to list them#but#sausage rolls curry bolognase stir fry stew soup pie#etc every way of preparing meat that isnt in a big plain chunk basically

Lemon pepper chicken basted with green onions in butter with sauteed snap peas and quinoa
#for whatever reason my quinoa always comes out at the perfect texture but i cannot for the life of me figure out rice#but thats fine i like quina better anyways i just wanna know why i can do one but not the other when theyre the same process basically#used a lemon garlic basil butter sauce for the quinoa and added fried garlic slices and chopped green onions on top#then i added the leftover oil from frying the garlic because why not#i think this is the best meal ive made so far im improving sm and very proud of myself for cooking somewhat consistently#also! i will be moving in a week! which means i will have things like OVER and AIR FRYER.#GRILL even#cant wait to branch out cause tbh im getting sick of pan searing lol (i only have a gas stovetop rn)#definitely concouring my fear of undercooked meat because i only cooked the chicken for 5 extra minutes this time xD
