It’s just the artists not being as nasty as the producers.

Yes, I too am curious about the dick sucking…

Correct

Of course they are, but in the capitalist paradigm success is synonymous with profit. So giant multinational companies making shitty cheap products is the goal of capitalism, because it allows for the greatest profit. In other words Macdonald’s is better closer to the perfect expression of capitalist ideals than the artisanal gastro-pub with the coffee and cocoa encrusted reindeer sliders because they are more profitable, despite the fact they sell industrial food adjacent waste as food.
As a side note, do try coffee and cocoa encrusted reindeer sliders. You’ll have to make them yourself because as far as I’m aware they aren’t actually a menu item anywhere.

Actually what I’m advocating is small businesses and sustainable food consumption. Generally speaking the larger a company becomes, the worse the product is and the more environmental damage it does. I’ve worked at both chains and independent restaurants and the difference in food waste is truly shocking.

I’m talking about the over ordering and generally crappy quality of products in the name of cutting costs. If you have to order dough a week ahead of time it tends to go bad. If you’re making it fresh every day then it’s never more than a day and a half old.

I spent several years working at Peppes and so I could recognise the sauce anywhere, Ragn sells is the company that provides dumpsters in Bergen, and nothing happens in Norway.

Cook it first
- Comment on Yeasty 1 week ago:
Bottom right is Peppes pizza. The bases come pre-sauced and frozen in packs of 20. You put them into an oiled pan and put racks of these pans into a leavening cupboard. They puff up a lot, but they need to be used the same day. Because they fall pretty quickly.
My guess is that they accidentally dropped a couple of boxes down the stairs and shattered them to the point they couldn’t be used. Tossed them into the bin without thinking and the midday sun took care of the rest.
Similarly with chain pizza places like PJ’s, the dough is made at a central location and distributed by truck twice a week. It’s kept refrigerated for a while but it needs to be taken out of the fridge to rise. Sometimes franchises will order too much and it develops a black marbling of dead yeast, when it gets old. Can’t sell it at that point so you toss it in the bin.
In short it’s a failure of capitalism.

Which Peppes pizza is that in the bottom right?

Yes, because he’s spineless.

Lol

My partner would never do this, because she knows I would buy goatse plates.

It’d evaporate much quicker TBF. Although that also means that the BP would be much lower and tea and coffee wouldn’t be a thing and boiling wouldn’t be a reliable method of cooking. although on the flip side, you could increase the strength of alcoholic beverages by boiling the water off instead of distilling the alcohol.

M8! It’s only done 80000. How much of a mess can it be really? Mines done about twice that and it has a busted alternator and a tourist in a camper managed to rip my mirror out of the door.
- Comment on Missed it by that much! 4 weeks ago:
My car is much fucking closer to that.

Look at you with your shiny basically unused car!

That sounds fucking disgusting

I’m taking it off. I need to at least make sure it’s a sane human and not a rabid pig that’s going to spontaneously bite it off.
- Comment on Breaking the generational barriers 4 weeks ago:
I would occasionally go here after a particularly heavy night.
- Comment on Breaking the generational barriers 4 weeks ago:
Because you don’t go to a fancy restaurant to eat breakfast?

Well it is the best game.

The fish are going to die anyway. Might as well be the one getting fed by them.
- Comment on Breaking the generational barriers 4 weeks ago:
It’s not about keeping grease out of the drain, it’s about not wasting cooking oil. As a Brit I recommend frying your whole breakfast in bacon dripping. Especially the mushrooms and tomatoes.
- Comment on My son got Nikes so he doesn't get teased. 4 weeks ago:
It doesn’t really matter if the schools do. And the bully’s parents are where they get it from. Kids don’t care about branding unless they’re instructed to do so by their families. I was bullied by a guy for years at school. Several adults tried to intervene, but it only stopped after I embedded a knife in the wall next to his head from across the room. Bullies like a reaction unless they think there’s a legitimate chance you’ll snap and murder them. Unfortunately that’s not advice you can pass to your children.
