The Food Thread

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

Not appetizing but coulda been worse.
I was expecting fried cow or sheep balls.
How is cheese from jersey cows and Jack Daniel's mixed with lemonade, or a burger that moved to Utah from California Utahan food.

They shoulda gone with the sheep balls.

Maine - seriously?
I like them all except cranberry sauce - fuck off, New Hampshire.
My favorite is from that Yankee/Deep South coalition - stuffing/dressing. We can all get along.

I take it you are talking about some kind of dressing made from wheat bread.
My cornbread dressing and giblet gravy is all Southern, but y'all welcome to some.

I don't know what kind of rolls they have, but if they're either fresh-baked yeast rolls or sourdough, I'm in.

Naa, I don't think so.
A Missouri restaurant chain known for throwing dinner rolls at customers is being sued by a St. Louis woman who says she was injured when a roll hit her.

Lambert's Cafe, which calls itself the "Home of Throwed Rolls," has made a name for itself by throwing hot dinner rolls to customers.

Troy Tucker said a rogue roll hit her and caused "serious and permanent personal injuries."Tucker is seeking at least $25,000 from the Sikeston-based chain, which has a location in Ozark.

In the lawsuit, Tucker says she "sustained a lacerated cornea with a vitreous detachment and all head, neck, eyes and vision were severely damaged" when she dined at the Sikeston Lambert's location on Sept. 20, 2014.

"Defendant Lambert's, by and through its employees, agents and officers knew or should have known that by throwing bread rolls at customers there was a possible risk of injury to diners, especially injuries to their head, neck, face and eyes," the lawsuit reads.

I don't have any interest in having food tossed to/at me, but if they serve it in a more normal manner, I'll bet their catfish is really good. If somebody tells them about the "throwed" salmon at Pike Place Market, they may think it's a good idea.

If you can't stand the heave, stay away from the kitchen. Pastor Troy Tucker should have ducked . . . or prayed. She may have been injured, but it's the rolls she's eaten that will kill her:

As always, there's a forum thread: Muffin top sues restaurant known for throwing rolls, for throwing rolls
... carb bombing ...
Hopefully Lambert's rises to the occasion so this crumb doesn't get any dough.
I don't expect the restaurant to just roll over on this one.
Gluten intolerant
Maybe they gave her a yeast infection.
It's all fun and games until someone loses an eye, so said my junior high shop teacher.
they should try to get on her good side. You know, butter her up.

That woman would never make it at my swordfish-throwing restaurant.
At yeast she wasn't permanently blinded, rye?
An eye for an eye makes the whole world cycloptic.....
Can't be the first time someone threw food at her.
First time she didn't catch it.
...with her mouth.
Seeing the shirt she picked out, she may have already been blind
One thing that never went pastor was a donut tray.
Yeah, they wanted the roll for evidence, but she ate it.
does it hurt her case that she motioned for them to throw another one after being hit with the first one?
Looks like she pretty good at catching food and subduing it.
Can I get a wheatness!
So cruel . . . and hilarious.

I ate there once about 15 years ago (the kid was about 10 and had to go). Good southern food. Kinda buffetish. You order the meat and the staff comes around and around and around with pots of all kinds of sides, including rolls and biscuits that they toss mostly to eager kids.

I've never thrown food but I've thrown up food and it made me wonder why I ate it in the first place.

Dominatrix Spotted Walking Man On Leash In Supermarket

I was out with my sub and my friends shooting some videos and just doing shopping. We stopped in Erewhon. Lots of cameras and attention, but the security let us through valet and let us check out our pricey basket before finally asking us to leave
She denied that she whipped the man or fed him out of a dog bowl. She added:
Didn’t have a dog bowl yet. We bought one after. I did paddle him. No more than twice though. He tried to touch my leg too high up my thigh and I didn’t like it. There weren’t any children nearby or anything.
Does he qualify as a service dog?
Better than leaving him in the car with the windows up

Yeppers. A couple more weeks to go. We've almost escaped Utah, arriving in the touristy town of Hurricane, outside Zion NP. We'll be here for a few days. We'll see if there's any local-type food here, whatever that might be.

We might've had this conversation before, I remember you don't bbq, but what kind of cooking and what limitations do you have in the Urban Assault Vehicle?

I grill a lot, but buy bbq out at some place that has the time/equipment to smoke ribs for hours. But Lady O is an excellent and imaginative chef and we eat very well. The UAV has a gas stovetop, a convection/microwave oven and a plain microwave, a double-door fridge and a double sink. Lady O would say a "limitation" would be that the total counter space is a bit small, but other than that, it's a well stocked and equipped kitchen. Took her a little bit to get used to the convection in place of a regular oven, but now I don't think she'd go back - except maybe for the size of a regular oven. We don't get food out very often, except the aforementioned ribs or something legit special to an area.

Cool, love convection ovens. I wouldn't go back either.

Is your oven big enough for a turkey or are you going to grill? I'm grilling, being doing it that way for 25 years, sometimes charcoal for smokey flavor, sometimes gas. Either way you get a convection effect and a moist delicious bird!😋
