The real outrage here is that on  top of charging a delivery fee and asking you to tip the driver, third party apps will charge “service fees” (note that this is not a tip), they also take 20-30% of whatever the customer ordered from the restaurant.

Like you said, the NBA can say they are woke as they want to be but at the end of the day, Donald Sterling, with his ugly Trump like ways, was one of their owners for 33 years and it took him being recorded being the hateful dude he had been and embarrassing the NBA on a national scale before he was dealt with.

Blackballed also showed that no matter how “woke” The NBA claimed it was in terms of social issues and how they tried to paint themselves as the league of progress and equality compared to The NFL that it was also bullshit. The NBA and it’s inner circles knew what Donald Sterling was for years and did nothing. Aside…

Because they like to hold on tight to their stupid, little, preconceptions.

THat owuld be the case if it were “a small fee.” But it’s not. It’s up to 30%. If oyu call restaurant using the Grubhub created phone number, it’s still a charge of up to $8 on single order.

All this talk of butter and mayo gets me thinking... homemade ghee instead of oil for the fat? Who says no?

Seasoning on every use? Holy shit. I’d have thrown it out on day two if it was a half hour process. Hot water the grease out, scrubbing with good old chain mail to get the bits out (if there are any). Then on the burner for 3-5 minutes to cook off the water.

Bourdain was probably being deliberately provocative, but I think what he meant was that the choice to be vegan was a first world phenomena. Where meet is unaffordable there is no choice being made and pretending those poor people are avoiding animal products for the good of the planet is the same as invoking “simpler…

Chicago, 90 degrees, late afternoon.  You’d feel like they were planning on serving long pork to the next guest.

What stage of burnout is “Show up at a Subway with a rocket launcher”?  Or is that just a combination if minding one’s diet and getting up to move about?

A local rooftop bar put those domes up this past winter. They still had to shut down because of the virus.

Okay here’s the list. The rest of you can rank it!

Is not.

Yeah, I used to have tons of cookbooks and magazines then realized I only had some recipes I used and ended up digitizing them (or finding digital copies wherever possible) and loaded them to an iPad (keeping backups in multiple spots just in case) and haven’t looked back.

It appears cookbook sales have been steadily on the rise for the last few years. She probably does have a lot, but I am not sure how well compilations sell. The only issue might be that she won’t have mains.

If you’re contacting a place directly to try and go around the 3rd party delivery services, try and verify you are actually calling them. Apparently (I think it was covered on here too) they can hijack the place’s digital presence rerouting calls to their places, making sure that the fees still get applied.

I would agree. You can always add more salt; it’s hard to remove it once it’s there.
