Can’t speak for Kevin’s sushi chef, but you see this in Japan sometimes even in cheap places. Space and seating is often limited and the chef has much more control over the rules in the shop. The rationale there is if you’re spending way too much time taking a photo, you’re:

1) Slowing down their turnover, a big deal

More power to you if you’re content with bitony of just ranch and honey mustard. Myself being a Fancy Dan, cannot conceive of eating it with fewer than four sauces, of which two must include Burger King’s Zesty Sauce and Chick-Fil-A Sauce.

Just two dipping sauces? Sorry, but if you expect me (and five other friends) to choke down that much dry chicken, I’m going to need at least a 6er flight of sauces of my own choosing. It should also come with selfie service.

I mean, let’s be reasonable here.

Yeah, eggs, falafel, hummus—as you say in your other post, there are more options these days. But it’s pointless if the food prep/suppliers can’t make them appetizing to kids.

I’m not against Meatless Mondays, but I do want school lunches to be: 1) nutritious given the high % of kids in poverty; 2) tasty enough so that

Former NYC public school lunch kid here. The protein access concern is legitimate when 25.2% of the under-18 population in NYC lives below poverty and a much higher % of that goes to public schools. My family never suffered from food insecurity, but enough of my friends and classmates did that I saw it firsthand.

What unwitting kids? Many of them actively posed with their water polo gear or rowing machines. And even if the parents helped change their board scores or photoshopped their headshots into athletes behind their backs, the kids should’ve known something was afoot when they got into a school after failing Art History

*yawn*

That Buckingham kid’s writing is awful. At least his mother realizes she’s got a dotard though:

“I know this is craziness, I know it is. And then I need you to get him into USC, and then I need you to cure cancer and [make peace] in the Middle East.” 

But if they can pull the last one off, they’re smarter than Jared

The sheer number of athletes in these kinds of non-glamorous NCAA/club-level sports astounded me in college. The affirmative action debate is a bullshit distraction that forces others to fight for a smaller share of the pie when these kinds of college athletic side doors continue to exist.

Doesn’t seem like that much daylight between Kate and Kevin here. Flour tortillas are only a problem when taco-knowers think it’s the only option out there. But they’re great for breakfast egg tacos and fajitas, or anything that has to be wrapped fairly closely. I’d even argue that fried fish tacos are better on flour

Go with the lower tip amount and vote for more publik schkool fundin.

If you can get past the fact that sushi burritos are: 1) massive carb bombs; 2) don’t use vinegared rice that is by definition sushi—”wrice wrap” would be a better name—then they look pretty tasty and useful for lunch on the go.

But what I don’t get with the beefshi is that sandwich meat just doesn’t have the viscosity

I practically know French now.

If you like mayo, go with God. I won’t try to dissuade you from it. You’re actually lucky in that your epicurean existence is not littered with vile, soggy booby traps. All I ask is that you mayo bullies respect my distaste for that shit, and that you recognize the extent of that distaste.

These tumblers are priced around $30 USD, and there’s such high demand for them that the Chinese are getting into fights just to get their hands on one.

I’m all for limiting food waste, but isn’t the simple lesson, “don’t take more than you need?”

There’s also the larger question of how supermarkets and farms process their food waste all every stage, from unsold food at stores, food damaged during transport, or farms tossing out “ugly” produce. NPR did a report on this

Brandon, just make it to April and you can hit up all the food in Flushing, Corona, and Jackson Heights.  People keep talking about Joe’s Shanghai, but Nanxiang and White Bear are better.

Don’t spray champagne, sabre it. No inconsiderate spraying, and if anyone doesn’t like it, you have the means to change their opinion.
