q: is a sushi a burrito, or is a burrito a sushi?

it's more like is a burrito a maki/temaki sushi, sushi itself has different preparations and does not necessitate being fish either

i loving LOVE food taxonomy and i have my own theory for it i will talk about at length

trick question. there's a size where it transitions from a large sushi to a small burrito with no other change to its form or contents

the answer is that they are different things with similar preparation but different ingredients

preparation then ingredients then locale govern everything, coming up with delineations and differences depends on changes to prep and ingredients

by this theory a hot dog (on a bun) is a style of open faced sandwich, not quite a sub but like in between, whereas a hot dog on its own is a kind of bologna/sausage (obv, due to preparation and ingredients)

i do prefer some automatic ordering system because when i exit my hovel office and walk to a place to get lunch, i am mostly focused on the food part, and i would appreciate if it i did not need to so much concentrate on pronouncing the food words correctly in a language that is not my native one, let alone make small talk

i mean its ok to make small talk too and do some more involved interaction, but i feel like the automation saves time and energy for both counterparties so they can focus on the human touch instead of the formalities of what food and how and payment

i totally agree that the apps mostly suck rear end. there is one waffle burger place that gets it well, but its still bad. i actually prefer when the qr code gets me a pdf, since this seems to be the most ecological and low effort solution on the part of the restaurant

i never order the kind of takeout that is delivered at my place, since everything i want is in walking range anyway and gently caress gig work companies



by the way head to https://www.radiofrance.fr/fip if you want some nice radio with really nice music with minimal talking and no ads whatsoever, thanks to me, the french taxpayer

theyre not good. but they've been 'trendy things' since like 2017 so they're probably on their way out

I don't know. They are probably in two different clades, but it's a clear case of convergent evolution.
