Yeah the amount food, even shitty food as gone up the last 5 years is just unfathomable. A part of me wants to open up a 24 hour "fast food" place called WE'LL MICROWAVE YOUR SHIT. You pull up, we'll cook you some ramen, sphaghettios in meat balls, mac and cheese, whatever. Charge $8. People will buy it. It would totally work but I'm sure we wouldn't be able to find help for under $30 an hour. [Reply]

I watch a lot of silly shit on YouTube. At some point, a bunch of videos popped up featuring people from Ireland and Great Britain trying American food for the first time. One of them showed a bunch of junior high-age kids trying fried chicken with biscuits and sausage gravy with sweet iced tea for the first time. They all reacted like they'd just died and gone to the VIP level of heaven. To all of it. And I'm sitting there thinking, "Jesus, it's just fried chicken." And also wondering what in the hell they feed these poor kids that makes them think it's the best thing they've ever eaten. [Reply]

In fairness, fried chicken is really, really good. [Reply]

Very true. The one thing they all had to get past was look of the sausage gravy - every one of them thought it looked like vomit. Which it does, but once they tasted it, that instantly went away. [Reply]
