Thanks for mentioning it was a data analyst, I would be confused otherwise.

If that's the kind of data her brain wants to analyze I'm all for it

An example of two things I love eating. On their own.

I'm high and I still wouldn't eat that.

From the article in [35]

As Arseny explained: “I think if they want to know how King’s Hand tastes, they should bake it themselves and tell me. Somebody actually did that, so I have one testimonial; they baked it and they said it's shit.”

Greek salad is like polar opposite to cookie and m&m. I can't even imagine how bad of a juxtapositioning it requires to even take it seriously as something to eat

but more importantly how did this survive as a Wikipedia entry!?

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 45 points 2 days ago (2 children)

December 6, 2020. Later that day, she shared her recipe. As of December 15, 2020, the tweet had garnered over 166,000 likes and was featured in a diverse array of media and print publications, including Fox News,[44] TODAY,[45] and BuzzFeed News.

So it went viral for a week, this entry was added, and here we are talking about it.

I once had a dream about a "lobster hotdog." A lobster tail in a buttered hotdog bun. I went to a sports bar that happened to serve lobster tail and had hot dog buns. The waitress willing let me order this culinary sin. On an occasion, I still wake up in a cold sweat with the faint memory of processed bread and shellfish...

Wait, you mean a Connecticut-style lobster roll? Which is amazing? Are you messin' with me? Culinary sin? You mean culinary heaven?

[–] Baguette@lemmy.blahaj.zone 19 points 2 days ago (18 children)

I tried a lobster roll for the first time last year and I'm mostly disappointed. Every single place sold them for around 40 to 50 USD. It was just buttered lobster which is good but for the amount I got, it was definitely not worth, and honestly I'd rather have bread on the side than as a roll

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 day ago

I've had a good one before. They're rare AF. Most places just seem to throw some overcooked butter-drenched lobster claw meat on a Pepperidge Farm top split and call it a day. You need to go somewhere with an actual chef to get one properly executed. (or maybe an ancient Northeastern grandmother)

Lobster salad, no huge chunks, relatively dry, properly salted, moderately spiced. A Top-split roll that's soft on the outside and crunchy butter-fried on the inside.

Even at their best, you won't cry for it when it's gone. It'll just be a "that was good" and a nice solemn happiness that you ate it.

[–] dreadbeef@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 day ago

lobster rolls are good only if you think "man these would be awesome if it werent $60 for a meal"

[–] OshagHennessey@lemmy.world 20 points 2 days ago (3 children)

The popularity of lobster rolls mostly comes from a time, not so long ago, when eating lobster and shrimp was on about the same level as eating crickets. People in the Northeast would catch them for export. Poor kids brought lobster rolls to school, rich kids brought baloney sandwiches or Oscar Mayer hot dogs. Eventually, people decided lobster was a "luxury" food so now you get these tiny little lobster rolls for absurb prices. Hard to understand how they'd attract any new fans today.

Presumably the supply of lobster is now much lower than the demand.

[–] BanMe@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

We did make improvements since then, like dousing in butter and cooking only to a delicate texture instead of pencil erasers. If you had the old fashioned style you'd be grossed out too.

I've had a few but would never pay that much. Especially after having one from McDonald's in Maine awhile ago for like $10 that tasted exactly the same. I check every time I'm up there and it's never been available again

I mean that's pretty close to what they call a lobster roll in most places.

[–] acme401@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

I could literally go next door and get one right now.

[–] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 7 points 1 day ago

They have food trucks in Iceland that serve lobster tail baguettes. They’re delicious.

It sounds good up until "stuffed with Greek salad."

Might be one of the few recipes where changing a crucial step would lead to a better outcome.

[–] Furbag@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Agreed. Fill it with frosting or whipped cream or something, not Greek salad... wtf.

[–] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Up to that point, I was looking at the description in disbelief, but burst out laughing when I read "greek salad". The hand cookie bit was just realistic enough to get it in the uncanny valley (the photo looked like an AI cookie hand, too... ~~Actually, it might still be, I don't know if that photo was from the lady that made them or added for the meme~~nm, it says she produced photos in the meme... Really wish voyager's comment UI showed more than just the one comment I'm replying to like RIF), but the greek salad put it well into absurd territory. Just imagining people biting into their over the top cookie thing and then making a wtf face at the combination of flavours in their mouth, though it would be even better if the initial surprise and disgust gets replaced by a confused look and then a "well played, not bad" because it works.

Lol I literally just had a greek salad earlier today but didn't even think to check how it tastes with chocolate chip cookie, so who knows, maybe it is good.

[–] FudgyMcTubbs@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

I immediately wondered if some other country called something else "Greek salad".... I tried to click the link in the photo to see if it was another name for like Ambrosia Salad or something desserty.

Nope.... Just a delicious, oily, salty Greek salad like I know and love from the local Coney.

I once had a dream about two brother inventors who were trying to build a cheaper space rocket but they were strugglingvwith investors and running out of money, so the fun brother (in my dream he was played by Ryan Reynolds, I shit you not) spent the last of their money developing a prototype of some roller skates that played music, but only while you were moving. When the skates stopped rolling the music stopped. He was dressed in pink booty shorts and was trying to sell preorders of his musical skates at an LGBT pride festival but it's not going well.

Then his brother bawls him out for wasting their money and declared their partnership over. Ryan Reynolds can't talk him back, and walks off, but he's walking awkwardly on the grass with his skates, and because they aren't rolling continuously, he is just sadly shuffling over the grass while his skates play, in broken spurts and stops, that "Firework" song from that American woman singer.

There was more to the dream, it was movie length and extremely vivid, but that was the funniest part.

So in my dream I invented shitty musical roller skates that even a gay Ryan Reynolds couldn't sell at a pride fest.

[–] kaklerbitmap@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

Man I'm always jealous of people tbat get to have goofy dreams like this. Weird stuff that just sounds fun, or sexy dreams, or dreams about flying etc. 98% of the time i don't remember anything. When I do it's shit like a plane crashing into my house with my family inside, or holding my dog in my arms as it dies from cancer. Lost track of the number of times I've woken up with no clear memory of my dream, just feeling terrified or with a horrible unnamed sense of sadness and loss. I'd much prefer Ryan Reynolds on musical rollerskates.

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 12 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Ryan Reynolds... dressed in pink booty shorts ... at an LGBT pride festival but it's not going well.

Well that's just unrealistic.

You only need to change a few ingredients for it to be nice.

Make it bread dough, and replace the M&Ms with small cubes of cheese.

Then replace the "Greek salad" bit with melted cheese.

Is 28 around the usual age schizophrenia hits?

[–] FudgyMcTubbs@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago
