This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

How do you fuck up biscuits and gravy? The name is the ingredients.

Literally looks like shit:

[–] Wolf314159@startrek.website 2 points 4 days ago

First of all, yes, those look like shit. Brown gravy? Square flat bricks that I assume are meant to be biscuits? Just awful.

But, an over easy or sunny side up egg is always a welcome addition to biscuits and gravy. That's the only thing they got right.

I really don't get how people screw up the gravy so badly. It's just sausage crumbles in a pan, coated with flour once the fat has rendered (melted) a bit, then adding milk or cream and pepper to your desired consistency and taste respectively. Simmer and add spices until it looks good. Maybe add some minced sage if the sausage doesn't have it already. If you're not starting your gravy recipe for biscuits and gravy with sausage, you're doing it wrong and should be ashamed. It doesn't come from a box. It's not white as a sheet and devoid of spice or flavor. It's not vegetarian. It's not gluten free. It's also not brown gravy, which is made entirely differently using fond to give it the brown color.

The biscuits are no better. Even Bisquick biscuits from a box would turn out better for most people than these depressing bricks.

Why is the kid's grilled cheese $4 more than the adult one? Just because they cut the crust?

Served with a side of fries

Maybe?

You have to be dumber than a bag of rocks to be a fanboy of a corporate douche. They're mostly tolerable at best.

No thanks! I feel like the Health Inspectors would fail that place...

(If muskrat and PEDOnald were still in love, I'd assume the health inspectors would be losing their jobs next)

Is the 1/3 lb burger a reference to that time when people misunderstood fractions?

I thought he hated California now and packed up and moved everything to Texas. Anyway, it seems to be about as innovative as any of his other 'ideas'.
