My parents always prepped me two or three microwave-ready dishes with my favorites. Had a friend that was homeless one year and had to spend the day walking the streets in the cold; it was an awesome feeling to invite him inside and heat-up some fresh, home-cooked food and share the holiday with him. Good times!

My parents used to host TG every year, and they got tired of all the hassle of roasting a turkey (which was always nice and juicy, if a little bland), so one year they nixed the turkey (AND THE HAM!11!!!!!one!11!!??) and went with a pot roast, which was excellent. I lamented the missing ham, and everyone opined their…

There’s a franchise literally called Ghost Kitchens that has supposedly taken over Subway’s contract with Walmart. They’re going to offer a metric shit-tonne of options from over 20 different restaurants, with kiosks, contactless pickup, and counters where you can just walk up and order food in-person.

Had an employee do exactly that once. She asked if she could head over to the grocery store next door, and 20 minutes after she gets back, she magically “found” a woman’s stolen pocketbook in the women’s bathroom.

The worst phone idiot I ever had to deal with was listening to music on his headphones. There was a MASSIVE gap between him and the person ahead of him because he was staring at his phone, not paying attention.

Yup! It’s because they require so much labor to make, but they smell really good, so supposedly they draw in Walmart shoppers.

The funny part is, there are plenty of local recyclers that not only take the oil, but will pay you for it!...but only for businesses. I literally left 50 lbs. of used peanut oil at my last apartment because even the commercial recyclers decided that wasn’t enough to accept it.

We’ve got plenty of farmers around, but…

STOP. BLOCKING. THE. AISLES!

Hot dogs are easy; I just set my fryer to 350F, then eyeball the weiners. I wait until I start seeing dark spots, which means the outside has a nice crispness, and the inside will be nice and juicy.

I only buy Nathan’s bun-length now, but instead of the air fryer...deep fryer.

They’re...surprisingly good? I occasionally get one for my employee meal. It’s a frozen pizza, but it’s thawed before cooking. Too much crust, IMO, but they taste decent.

They’re regional. Subway has a pretty strange (albeit, kinda cool) proclivity to sell certain products only in certain regions. Most of these items are actually loss-leaders (like the pretzels) that are only sold in Walmart locations. Reason being, those locations have a lot of foot traffic, and having particularly…

The Food Lion next door at work has a hot-bar with Bacon Cheddar Tater Kegs (say THAT three times fast!) that are Bomb As Fuck. Every time I let a coworker try one, they instantly become addicted.

I think you mean to say, “Frank Social-ly.”

Twitter really needed to be burned to the ground, and honestly, I’m not totally surprised that Elon Musk buying it somehow not only became the catalyst for doing exactly that with such effeciency, nor that it would be so monumentally, gluttonously entertaining to witness.

I actually ate at my local Village Inn on my last day off; I LOVE the buffet! Used to eat there once a week when I was working with my dad. Sucks that they don’t sell beer anymore, doh. :*(

Must be a regional thing; they’re in every gas station in my area. Haven’t tried them yet, myself, but that might change. They even sell CBD-laced ones next door at work!

This is going to sound weird, but...the instant Stove Top-in-a-cup was one of my favorite snacks when I still had a microwave. Nuke a couple of those bad boys, kick back, and watch some TV. Same thing with instant mashed potatoes or cups of Rice-a-Roni. Good shit!

DO NOT USE SALT TO EXTINGUISH A GREASE FIRE!!! IT IS FLAMMABLE AND WILL ADD FUEL TO THE FIRE!

Why would you even open a hardware bin without knowing it’s what you need? They’ve all got measurement testers so you should know exactly what you need before you start looking.
