I think the title is too niche a reference but regardless, it's that time of year again at last so recommend teas that I can pretend have health benefits but are really just dirt water.

I have a cup of ginger turmeric in the morning and two cups of chamomile before sleep and I think the morning could be moved to early evening and so I specifically want something herbal for first thing in the morning but I'm open to others

The pumpkin spice finally ran out and it would be weird to reup on that in December.

NOTHING CAFFEINATED

these Michelin spots are a pile of bologna. Buncha pretentious, high brow, nonsense smoke and mirrors for tiny bites of crap

surprise, surprise, the former chef has a different opinion than the guy who thinks there's nothing special about Michelin starred restaurants.

Calories.... 2 McDoubles = 800 1 small fry = 365 1 small drink = 150 1315 calories...

Eh, they wouldn't want a loser like you in there anyway

There isn't all that much inter-personal drama yet, it's more one cohort beating their chest signalling that they're too smart to pay for air and the other calmly and politely explaining the context, but with a real possibility of either group losing patience with the other, I reckon that the thread may develop explosively.

Free State hunting is hard cuz there's zero cover, it's a very vegetation sparse steppe type biome

One method is trying to hunt them from a vehicle and try to creep into their comfort zone before they bolt and shoot them from range

OP posts this

(in my opinion, abomination) of a french onion soup.

If you want to eat a raw/boiled onion soup, have at it

French onion soup is made with caramelized onions

It's a pretty simple dish, with very few ingredients, very few steps

(+34)

You can't see the onions you don't know if they're caramelized or not. You've invented this whole scenario in your head

(-33)

The onions on top are not caramelized lol

The onions everyone is mentioning

The 2 onions on top

Do you see them

(+27)

The one that's very clearly a garnish?

(-14)

Yes. Which isn't caramelized.

French onion soup = caramelized onions

(+30)

But those aren't in the soup

Soup ≠ garnish

(-6)

h, its just trash on top of the soup? Lol

I like garnishes that you can eat, that compliment the dish

Maybe try garnishing the soup with a copy of Pokemon Red

You're not a well liked person, are you?

Do corn and beans belong in chili?

— rDrama.net (@rdramanet) January 8, 2024

Only 17.9% of people believe that beans do not belong in chili.

You misunderstood Panera, people wanted more drink options, not less.

The offending post: Little country boy trying his hand. How'd I do with spaghetti and meatballs?:

Frick that fake tilt shift, who thinks it looks good? 75% of the picture is blurred. I also hate the title, but that's not why we're here.

The top comment:

Good but not Italian, we don't put meatballs on spaghetti, that's american [+81]

So you're telling me that in the entire history of the nation of Italy, no one has ever put a meatball on top of spaghetti? [+4]

We first eat pasta, then as the second plate we eat meatballs [+1]#

That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. So basically if you have two Italian foods and you eat them separately, it's Italian. But if you put them on the same plate it's not Italian. Like I said, dumbest thing I've ever heard. [+1]

Well my nonna used to make spaghetti and meatballs ...

Death to all nonna-posters

you can do whatever you want with your food, but it's not Italian. [-1]

The gatekeeping in this sub is off the charts. [+1]

Enter /r/iamveryculinary

Did somebody say "gatekeeping" in a food subreddit? /r/iamveryculinary's monitoring dashboard lights up like a Christmas Tree and it gets reposted there: Someone posted meatballs in the Italian sub. The whole thread is bickering and probably unseen gesturing.

As always the comments are full of hilarity, these really are witty redditors:

If an Italian makes a ball out of meat, they die instantly.

No, the spontaneous combustion only happens when the meatballs touch pasta.

Hot take: if we subtract all the dishes that get eliminated by that sub as "not Italian," Italian cuisine would not be voted the most popular cuisine in the world any more

Where would Italian cuisine be without hot pockets and the Little Caesars lunchtime special?

My hot take is that I don't think Italians do themselves any favors by hyping up Authentic Italian Cuisine(tm) so much. I've been to Italy and I was actually mildly disappointed by the food there at first, I think because it was so ridiculously hyped up in my head.

I'd love to see this Redditor's holiday pictures

Wait until you see all the mean comments I get for my perfectly dark and precisely reproducible roux for gumbo. The Cajuns go beserk when I say I made it in the microwave instead of wasting 30 minutes stirring it on the stove like their memaw, lol. This is, of course, after they've tasted it and liked it.

This post is sponsored by this week's anti-gatekeeping campaigner @Not_a_R-slur. I'd like to thank @Lappland for his weeks of dutiful service and I wish him a happy retirement.

My groceries (pic related) cost $100 after tax and tip today. How the frick is anyone else surviving?
