There's great food in pretty much every place on Earth, the real question is cost. You can walk into any random Italian, Spanish or Portuguese restaurant and eat a great meal for 15 euros. Every other restaurant is great. This is different from for example Belgium, where there are awesome restaurants too, but they will cost you an arm and a leg.

My experience in the US has been awful on this front though. Honestly I don't think I've ever had a meal that was half decent in the US. Now I'm sure I would have, if I wanted to spend the money or if I had had the knowledge of locals to know where to get my food. My personal experience is just that it's easy to eat well in Italy or Spain and it just isn't in the US.

I can attest -- unless you hang out in tourist hotspots at places owned by grifter non-Portuguese cashing in on clueless tourists -- Portugal consistently delivers good food under €15.

Having lunch at work and there’s Pete Hegeseth on the TV holding a press conference. How the fuck does this guy still have a job?

1. Always need a fall guy

2. The military are likely to lynch him first in a rebellion, giving Trump time to run

i like 'em even more now! and he's right burgers>>>>pasta dishes
mushroom and swish burger with egg on top and extra cheese

Burgers?

Meat? On a bun?

No challenging use of utensils required?

What, are gas station microwave burritos too ethnic for you?

This is your idea of a civilization's contribution to the culinary arts?

damn you got all of that out of me saying i prefer burgers over pasta dishes



as for ethnic food, I grew up and eat "ethnic" food 90% of the time. also rice dishes >> pasta dishes
also i will not accept any 7/11 gas station cookies slander


also fuck italian food bunch of arrogant snobs, sure it's good but they act it's best thing on earth. not just italian euros in general. i'd love me a nice plate of senegalese jollof rice with grilled chicken, or panaak paneer with coconut rice, or a simple pad thai are all more banging then italien/euro civilization slop shit

as a matter of fact, sandwhiches/burgers are the best food ever invented by white folks imo

But burgers, man. Glorifying burgers is like eating peanut butter & jelly sandwiches every day. You gotta get out and live, my man.

But yeah, I ain't much a fan of pasta dishes myself. But pasta is merely a primi... it's not even the main course if you're doing it right.

But I do make some exceptions. Like an agnolotti del plin in the right hands. Or even a cacio e pepe done well. But I'd almost always rather have crudo di fassona. Piemontese raw veal beats some bun-assed burger anyday in my book.

And I am gonna make haters of all my Ghanaian and Nigerian friends because of them Jollof Wars, but Senegalese jollof rice is the best jollof rice.

i don't know man maybe i'm spoiled because of where in canada i live but we got great beef here and they make fire burgers. just like in the interview weston made that caused mayhem, burgers have variety you can go to two different burger spots and have a completely different tasting burger. some of them burger spots get fancy and put onions/pepper and cheese in the patties. oh and bannock (native american bread) burgers with bison meat is to die for

also peanut butter jelly sandwiches are the pinnacle of sandwiches this the order of different kinds of peanut butter/xyz sandwiches

1. peanut butter nutella (crack specially when eating while baked)
2. peanut butter rasberry jam
3. peanut butter honey
4. peanut butter strawberry+apple jam

served with glass of either of cold milk or chocolate milk

I agree actually, a good smash burger is way more satisfying than a basic ass plate of cacio e pepe, peasant meal trying to act like it’s fancy.

And the options on toppings are limitless. Give me a little blue cheese and bacon on that shit and you have a fantastic dish. Some pomme frites too.

FINALLY you start really preaching here. Man said pad thai like Thai food doesn't smell like a fucking barn

I'm going to be an American exceptionalist here, Skippy natural creamy and Welches natural concord grape together are the peak on some lightly toasted bread. People go and use chunky, but that can throw off the peanut distribution. Gotta have peanuts ready and then you place them on the sandwich like this

Have you guys tried Raising Cane’s? Or Chick-Fil-A?

Chick-fil-A

Not the best but consistent and good enough for a quick lunch especially for fast food. I stay away from the fried chicken sandwich tho except for on rare occasions, can’t be good for you. Their salads are great.

 

[MAXCAP]

Kale crunch is good.

You could pass for Portuguese then.

I've been eating Chick-Fil-A since 1987. But they don't have then within thousands of miles of me now. Always thought they were pretty reasonable for fast food.

Never did the Raising Canes thing, though my mom really got into them before she died of cancer. Not sure if that was related or not.

I believe the name of the charity is the Human Fund.

McKennie in particular is insane.

Every region in Italy has its own recipes and the variety is crazy. Is it the best cuisine in the world? That's personal taste. I think the entire Mediterranean has great food as does the Middle East.

But for this criticism to come from an American. Wow.

I think what he's trying to say is that regardless of where you go in Italy, most of the food is consistent and damn good. Chefs typically have the same style and technique, so he's right about a dish like cacio and pepe. It's going to be amazing at most places, unless you're in a shitty tourist trap in Rome, for instance. But in the US, you can have highly rated restaurants that are actually dogshit and can't hold a candle to some random place in Italy. I'm lucky to have a really good French restaurant nearby, with a quality chef who studied in France, but most other towns wouldn't be so lucky.

I don't think Americans have a good understanding of what good food actually is. Most of my friends do not. Which is sad, because they have been to Europe. But if you prefer some silly Murican seafood boil with shrimp and corn on the cob over an excellent bouillabaisse because "it's too watery", I think you should just stay in the bbq line next to the local Walmart.

Yessir. I'm huge burger fan and has become a major craving food for me, especially with a good Pinot Noir. I usually make a blue cheese sauce as well.

But burgers, man. Glorifying burgers is like eating peanut butter & jelly sandwiches every day. You gotta get out and live, my man.

I know you've mentioned this before. But don't knock a good burger. If you're ever in Paris, hit up Il était un burger in the 5th. It might just change your mind.
