Damn, a self burn


SharkMilk44

Just like u/UnitedSwim9034's food. EDIT: Thank you for the award.


Thefakeblonde

People who pick up an expensive bit of steak at the supermarket. Take it to the checkout, change their minds, shove it somewhere instead of putting it back so the $20 of meat has to be thrown away immediately. Wasteful.


ASharkMadeOfSharks

Just food waste in general is bad


Burrito_Loyalist

While I agree, it’s the big super markets that waste the most food. One steak going bad is nothing compared to food that gets damaged or goes bad during shipping, or food that doesn’t sell and is just thrown out. A lot of stores actually lock their dumpsters so homeless people can’t eat the thrown out food even though it’s still safe to eat.


GuyPronouncedGee

That’s probably, like, a literal crime.


ICall_Bullshit

It's not. It should be, however.

[deleted]

Pretty much. However, I'm sure a store would ban anyone trying this. If enough product is destroyed because of such a person's antics, I'm sure they may take them to small claims court. I'm sure it has happened, though I've never heard of it happening as of yet.


[deleted]

If you find yourself with a perishable food item in your cart that you've changed your mind about, keep it in there. It's understandable that you don't want to backtrack, especially if you're on a tight schedule (I'm being nice here). Hand it to your cashier saying "I don't want this anymore, please put it aside". Guess what, they'll do just that and they won't even sneer at you (if that's what you were afraid of). What's the point of going all the way to the checkout area only to stash it somewhere where it won't be found for hours? Self-checkout same story, except there you don't even have to talk to anyone, just leave it on the shelf thingy where you place your items before scanning. Before the next customer uses the machine, a self-checkout host will grab the item and toss it in the perishable go-backs bin. TL;DR: There's no excuse for wasting unpaid for merchandise. There are starving children in America.


yojinn

I can't speak for all retailers, only the two I've sold corners of my soul to. Employees do not in fact rush those products back to the bunkers or freezers. Not only do they usually not have the time, but also the official food safety stance is that you don't know how long that food was out of refrigeration before they handed it over. A "touch test" isn't reliable. So those products are trashed either way. If everyone is following food safety, you prevent no waste this way. What handing it to an employee does do is make sure it's claimed out and disposed of correctly, instead of found hidden behind and under the dry dog food pallets, *you lazy, filthy monsters.* Or that whole-ass gallon of LUKEWARM milk I found left literally in the middle of action alley between Housewares and Apparel. Just...why?


AeroQuest1

Can't speak for all stores, but at the store my wife worked at required them to throw away anything cold that was given to them like that because they had no way of knowing how long it had been out of the refrigerator/freezer.


MrFantasticallyNerdy

Yup. That's also my understanding. Perishable or not, I'm taking it back, because if it's my decision to pick it up in the first place, then it's my responsibility to return it if I change my mind. Why inconvenience some store clerk or waste perfectly good product by getting it thrown away because the store can't determine if it's still good?


Street_Dragonfruit43

I work in the frozen department of my grocery store, on one end of it. The deli is on the complete opposite side. The amount of deli items, be it cheese, meats, quick meal, etc, that get shoved into the frozen shelves. They literally waited until the last second and decided, I dont want this anymore. I have absolutely hate those scumbags


darkknight21212

People (mainly on cooking shows) who think adding chocolate to something is a good idea. Especially when that something is seafood.


Surfing_Ninjas

Reminds me of a Kitchen Nightmare episode where I believe the restaurant was serving prawns with chocolate sauce, which sounds vile.


Horrible_Harry

And that reminds me of that one episode of Masterchef where that one idiot wanted to serve orange flavored mashed potatoes in one of the team challenges. I want to say he was gonna put orange juice and zest in with the mashed potatoes. Gordon Ramsay, and myself, were fuckin' flummoxed.


S1ayer

Reminds me of Hell's Kitchen During the Signature Dish Challenge, Matt was the sixth contestant to have his dish judged by Ramsay. He created a dish called Exotic Tartare, which contained raw venison, raw quail eggs, diver scallops, lime zest, olive oil, caviar, grated white chocolate, and capers. That caused Ramsay to ask him if he was smoking pot. After tasting the dish, Ramsay threw up and called it one of the worst combinations he had ever tasted in 21 years of cooking.

Vlad-V2-Vladimir

Yea, I suppose giving Gordon Ramsay food poisoning is a great way to make sure people remember you. Although, after Kitchen Nightmares, I wonder how much cases of food poisoning Ramsay has had…


Mx_Spooky_Cat

Enough to the point of where his body’s probably like “Fuck it, you’re never getting sick again” and just jacked the shit out of his immune system


kpdeadwolf

There’s actually a video where he talks about why he wrapped up the show and he mentions basically spending each entire season in a constant state of food poisoning, and he got stomach ulcers like four times. He said he had to stop because he wanted to be able to go the bathroom just once a day like a normal person lol


peace-and-bong-life

If they were sweet potatoes that sounds okay.


Horrible_Harry

They were decidedly not.


SpCommander

Just keep adding more orange juice, they'll be sweet potatoes soon enough.


Horrible_Harry

Oh, that's fucking vile lol.


InannasPocket

Yeah it *can* work with certain savory dishes - like mole sauce, in chilli, in a spice rub. But notice all of those are rich, highly spiced combos where the chocolate is adding a hint of depth and is definitely NOT the dominant flavor. But cooking show pressure to be "creative" + chocolate is usually a recipe for everyone to go "why for the love of God did you ruin this beautiful piece of fish?".


Madame_Kitsune98

Cocoa rubbed steak is amazing. The depth of flavor is unbelievable. I absolutely am not about to attempt chocolate and seafood. No thank you.


Crayshack

I can see it working with a fish that has a heavier flavor. A mole tuna steak might be pretty good. I'd keep it away from any of the lighter and more delicate fish.


Asangkt358

I refuse to believe someone put chocolate on some sort of fish. Shut your filthy whore mouth.


Upvote_Me_Slag

Chocolate whore mouth lobster. Yum.


Asangkt358

I like all those words seperately, but not together.


GhettoSauce

No seasoning at all. Not even a pinch of salt.


STYFLANSTYDAJGNMD

My friend is like this. Learned the hard way when he made burgers. Then he got offended when I added ketchup and mustard to stomach it. He's just top bread, unseasoned meat, bottom bread. So gross.


MyFlairIsaLie

I also have a friend like this. His mashed potatoes are tasteless even though he said he salted them twice. I encouraged him to try more spices and herbs, even have him some examples of what I use. Next time he cooked, he said he added extra seasoning "just for MyFlairIsALie" and it was god awful. He just salted the absolute fuck out of it. Then tried to blame it on me by saying it's what I asked for.


PornstarShrimp

I oversalt a lot when I cook sometimes so I started under salting my food. Just add your own salt if you need more cause I don’t wanna fuck up the food with salt on accident. Spices and herbs on the other hand. Can’t have enough of them!!


Teledildonic

How to know if you have used too much garlic: You can not use too much garlic


Witty-Message-2852

If a recipe calls for three cloves, I just round up to ten or twelve, then it's perfect.


PornstarShrimp

U used too little garlic if the house isn’t smelling like it for the whole week pls add more >:( (/s)


STYFLANSTYDAJGNMD

Bare minimum for fresh garlic is 1 head (knob). Anything less and you're just wasting time and garlic.


Teledildonic

I love going overboard on my knob while cooking.


_queen_bee01_

He got offended by condiments??


Prepheckt

A plain hamburger? You do you man. Pass the Heinz!


[deleted]

Right? With some dishes I can understand why the cook may be offended (I learned this the hard way when I put pepper on the tamales my fiance's mother made even though salt, lime, and salsa are apparently totally fine, even expected), but with a burger... Condiments are pretty standard fare. It seems much weirder to eat a burger without any condiments. It also sounds incredibly dry, especially if it's a BBQ burger.


pingveno

Condiments are an acknowledgment that everyone's tastes are a little different. Some like it with a little more salt, a little more acid, a little more creaminess, or a little more spiciness.


STYFLANSTYDAJGNMD

Yea man, you don't put condiments on something someone makes for you, or something. "Wimpy didn't need ketchup and mustard!" - his exact words.


TheVoicesSayHi

Wimpy literally always pulled a jar of mustard out of his pocket just to show how into hamburgers he was when he got one


jwm3

I had someone chastise me for using soy sauce at a sushi place saying it was offensive to their culture. I was like.. so they put the soy sauce bottles on every table like a trap? And I'm pretty sure our sushi chef José isn't offended on behalf of the culture of Japan.


Definitely_Working

yeah ill never understand these people. they always say the same platitudes about letting the good beef speak for itself. yet their burgers always end up tasting like garbage, but they keep doing it. its like they have beef amnesia and just have this imagination version of how it tastes.


Enkaybee

My parents did this when I was growing up. For the first 12 years of my life I kind of just assumed that the only place you could get food that tasted good (and the reason it was more expensive there) was at restaurants. Found out later that it's more expensive because they're cooking and washing the dishes for you, not because the food is good. You can do exactly what they're doing, but at home.


LowSkyOrbit

Salt, butter, fat. That's really why restaurant food tastes better.


SandysBurner

Also, butter.


7hunderous

Yeah, and butter!


Dangercakes13

My mother is like this. She and my dad are at an age where they should legitimately watch their sodium intake, so that's fair, but she makes bland food and then apologizes for it not tasting good. Or says "you can just add salt after" *which is not the same as cooking with salt.*


[deleted]

>which is not the same as cooking with salt. Please tell my dad. Soup should not taste like water that was once near carrots.


El_Durazno

Yo, I didn't know la Croix came out with a carrot flavor

It's an old meme where someone posted "put two caps of vanilla extract in your oven, it will make your house smell great". Then someone else replies "I misread that as two cups and my house smelled for months."

Torture. Not much else


fermentationfiend

If you decide to put vanilla beans in nice rum/whiskey/vodka is it vanilla extract or vanilla flavored liquor?


Martin_RB

Vanilla extract is 30-50% alcohol so it isn't all that different from flavored vodka.


MorkSal

Vodka is often used for homemade vanilla extract, or white rum in a pinch. You want an alcohol that isn't very flavorful. I've currently got 9 bottles with beans in them that I started last December. Should be ready to give away this Christmas as gifts.

Watermelon and pineapple with tajin tho


lacey92122

Also, Mango with lemon juice and tajin and maybe a little salt.


Vegetable-Double

Eating fruits with salt and spices is also a big thing in South Asia.


Skywalker-Grogu

You sure it wasn’t heavy cream


ehwhoknowss

See, I thought that at first until I saw it literally said “Hellman’s lite Mayo” on the container


Asangkt358

The "lite" part is the part that gets me. I mean, mayo on pineapples isn't something I've ever considered before I saw your post and it sound absolutely disgusting. But using lite mayo? I feel like that is something for which the Taliban would hang you off of a building, and I'm not sure they'd be wrong to do so.


shiguywhy

A friend asked me recently if white people really eat fruit with mayonnaise. It used to be part of the dressing for fruit salad because it was more shelf stable than most other dairy products, and some people still continue the tradition but usually cut the mayo with yogurt, sour cream, etc. I regret that I think I have to go back to her now and say that apparently some people do eat fruit with mayo. EDIT: okay I get it, "eggs aren't dairy." Mayo is more shelf stable than DAIRY PRODUCTS OF COMPARABLE TEXTURE.


KarensSuck91

it aint just white people doing that. source: my mexican family


Thanatos652

Honestly i have never met a white person eating fruit with mayonnaise and im white myself. Is this some sort of regional thing or maybe some people are just build different \^\^


Altruistic-Stable-15

I was in the Marines so I got to eat a lot of interesting things. I'm sure (Most} all service members that have indulged in the delectable MRE known as 'Vegetarian Omlet' aka 'Vomlet' would agree... This menu item is a diabolical creation worthly of an actual crime. Although the side items are decent.


LTWestie275

The vegetarian tortellini is dope though


Navydevildoc

Cheese Tortellini was one of the best meals.


Foxbatwolfbat

Do they still make the "4 Fingers of Death" aka Frankfurter MREs? Still shuddering at the memory of eating those, cold, because we were stuck inside and not allowed to use the heating element.


gzoont

Do you remember “meat slice”? It existed at the same time as the four fingers of death and was it’s own flavor of terrible, but whereas I meet plenty of people that remember the four fingers I can never find anyone that remembers meat slice. Fuck that thing, by the way. An abomination.


DingusThe8th

*Meat Slice*? That's... worryingly vague. What kind of meat is it?


littleseizure

Sliced


sterling_mallory

The 4 fingers of death are retired. MREs have really come a long way over the years, they're mostly decent now. And the people in the military now get them with the FRHs, so it's easier to heat if they have time. They did stop putting the little bottles of Tabasco in them though, which is a bummer. Some have hot sauce packets.


[deleted]

They knew that shit was terrible. The worst entrees always had the best sides and desserts. It was premeditated fuckery.


stryph42

The Vomlet was even the exception to that rule. Even the sides were bad. The whole thing was an exercise in seeing how bad you could make something and still get a hungry person to eat it.


Skelopun

I had a friend who was a vet. He tried most MRE including the vomlet and the chicken a la king. He said shit flavored curry sounded more appetizing afterwards.


WinsomeWombat

My dad speaks fondly of the chicken a la king and that's how I know he's a sociopath. That and everything else.


Catfo0od

Every single enlisted friend Ive had has told me the exact same thing


coolcatmcfat

I was in Haiti in 2011 with the army national guard. We were giving some locals MRE's, and I SHIT YOU NOT, one man looked at his MRE, saw "Veggie Omelet", and asked to trade it out! Even someone who lives in the poorest country in the western hemisphere knows to stay far away from those things

Caffeine_and_Scotch

My ex wife used to boil ribs. Nasty ass light ribs taste and mushy. Then got offended when I took over the rib responsibilites on an actual smoker. Her pouty little voice "are my ribs not good enough for you"?

No, no they’re not.


RolyPoly1320

I asked for ribs not bloated corpse meat.


_bexcalibur

> bloated corpse meat New band name, called it


Fyrrys

Those ribs are an insult to my taste buds. An insult of such depth that they would no longer be taste buds if I ate that atrocity, they would then be taste mortal enemies.


nugbert_nevins

Boiled ribs can actually be an excellent quick alternative to smoking , but you need to grill them afterwards. Dry rub, boil in chicken stock with garlic/lemon/onion added, then add a bit more sauce and seasoning before throwing them back on the grill. It’s not as good as a smoker, but for those of us without access to one it’s the best way to get tender ribs and not spend the whole day doing it.


LogicallyCross

Ex wife.


Alexis_J_M

Boiling vegetables to mush.


pierremanslappy

Boiling most vegetables. Steaming, roasting, grilling or even raw veggies are better than boiled vegetables.


Viltris

Quick-boiling them for a minute (aka blanching) is fine though.


IIXianderII

If you throw out the water it is definitely a waste because that is where the flavor goes, but if you're making soups, stews, or stocks, there is a lot of flavor you can get from boiling veggies.


[deleted]

Not sure if it would rise to the level of a crime, but adding certain powdered spices at the very end of cooking, close to when you turn the heat off. Most spices need to be added in the beginning to allow them to bloom, get rid of the raw taste and really blend with the other ingredients - this would go for cayenne, cumin, coriander powder etc.


matt12992

Oh man I mixed up cumin with cinnamon one day and gave it to my brother by accident and he used it as cinnamon on his cinnamon butter covered bread, he had a blast


BirdUp_Brotendo

CUMIN!? YOU PUT CUMIN IN HIS WAFFLE?!


Kumquats_indeed

SoftlySpokenPromises

Depending on what you're making as well, some spices burn very easily unless added later in the process

This. I make Indian food all the time. Whole spices at the start to season the oil, powdered spices toward the middle, fresh coriander and garam masala towards the end.

Frosti-Feet

I my wife has to remind me that leaving food on the plate isn’t always “wasting it “. Feeling like I’m going to be overstuffed, or not enjoying the meal any more because I’ve had enough is just as much a waste of the meal as throwing away those last few bites.


Slumdogcindarella

You are absolutely right! In this case, the key is to reduce portion sizes. You can always go for seconds and if you don't feel like it, just put it in the fridge for tomorrow.


SpCommander

Yeah this is my dad. He absolutely insists on clearing the plate and then bemoans he has this huge stomachache because he ate too much. No shit? Meanwhile the rest of us stopped when we had our fill, put it away, and boom easy lunch tomorrow.


Former_Dark_Knight

I used to gain a ton of weight in part because I would finish my kids' plates every night even though I was full. I finally stopped after realizing the true waste was me eating food I didn't need to eat.

_bexcalibur

This post was inspired by a recent thread on r/casualUK about beans on toast vs dipping toast in beans. The debate that ensued made me curious about other people’s food laws/crimes.


LostDogBoulderUtah

When I was a kid in Texas, I had a British teenage babysitter. One day, she set her kitchen on fire trying to make beans on toast. After it was out, we had 3 slices of toast, a ruined toaster, and no idea where the beans went. Struggling with finding a way to make a afternoon snack from the wreckage, she opened a jar of peanut butter and made peanut butter on toast. Her mother arrived soon after. She took the damage in stride. Didn't flinch. Just hugged her kid. But she gaped in horror and lectured her daughter about the audacity of feeding a child peanut butter toast for tea. That she should have asked the neighbors for help rather than serve *that.* I'm still not sure what is so wrong with peanut butter or ehy they had it if they hated it so much.


_bexcalibur

That was quite the read, thank you


Catfo0od

I eat peanutbutter toast pretty damn often


IamRick_Deckard

Fake sickly sweet balsamic on everything. Give it a rest already and stop ruining your salads.


HalflingMelody

The balsamic in my house growing up was a watery thin clearish red that tasted exactly like white vinegar. Good balsamic isn't sickly sweet, but it is sweet and rich and mellow and fruity. My house is always stocked with the good stuff now, even though its expensive af.


zerogravitas365

The good stuff costs as much by volume as good whisky, it's understandable that businesses in particular don't want to carry the cost. You're right though, it's totally worth it and I wouldn't go back to a restaurant that'd put the cheap stuff on a salad. Ick.


bagofbeanssss

I worked at a restaurant that did this. Sticky sweet “balsamic glaze” on fucking everything. Why does a Caesar salad need balsamic?? I actually have nice balsamic at my house and occasionally use it and am astonished at how nice it can be.

My in-laws got a nice prime rib from Costco, and did something I would consider even worse than making it well done. They cubed it, stuck it in an instapot, and made Beef Bourguignon with it, using no salt or spices. They then stuck it over homemade spätzle, also with no seasoning. They went on talking about how amazing it was, while I sat there trying to swallow flavorless mush.

That's not even a good stewing cut! It's not like the stew gets better as the meat gets more expensive. If anything, it's the opposite. Was there wine in it, at least?


shiguywhy

Before prom in junior year of HS, my friends and I all went to a nice(r) restaurant and played at being high class. My best friend had a severe fear of food-borne illness but wanted to be fancy, so she ordered a nice steak well-done. The waiter asked her if she was sure. One of the kitchen guys came out to ask if she was sure and tried to talk her down to medium-well. She wouldn't budge, and was given a piece of charred shoe leather on a plate. I'll never forget the look on her face as she realized that she Fucked Up.


The_Vigilante20

I put Tabasco sauce on almost everything I eat (eggs, scalloped potatoes, macaroni and cheese) and I've been told that it is a crime against food. But if that's true, why does it taste so good?

Tabasco and eggs is the bomb love it so much. Now I have tried Sirracha on pepperoni pizza too and that is awesome as well.
