Apparently a breakfast burger, looks distinctly like jelly and mayo/butter/margerine on vomit.


Hash browns "smothered" in cheese.


Tuna with a zesty slice of lemon. Possibly depression in food form.


Sausage casserole photographed in such a manner that it looks gross.


I don't even know what this is, only that someone ate it.

How do you gently caress up chicken that badly? It's like they tried to peel the skin halfway then stopped, and then just dumped a can of green beans in. There's no point putting canned beans into anything other then a microwave because they're already mush.

Out of curiosity, about where do you live? Because I live in Maine and I've never seen a lobster roll on a McDonald's menu. You would think they would try to serve it, since you can get fresh lobster relatively cheap and year-round here. But nope. I just assume they figured out what Long John Silver's didn't: that you can get a lobster roll at literally every lovely Americana restaurant in Maine, so they don't need to bother competing with whatever passes for a lobster roll on their own menu. So I just don't know how terrible a McDonald's lobster roll could be. The thought kind of scares me.

Toronto. Yeah, figure that one out. See, the idea was that they were going to make a Canada menu including such items as the Alberta Angus Beef Burger, the Lobster Roll (hullo, Maritimes!) and some other poo poo. Maple Bacon poutine, I think. You'd think they'd have something like that in Maine, but chances are they'd pick it up from wherever else and have it shipped frozen, so it doesn't matter. This is aforementioned roll btw



I mean, competition is irrelevant. They want to cover all their bases. Anyway, definitely going to try it next time I'm at Dufferin mall, because it looks like creamy barf and I think it would make for a good field report.

Lobster is overpriced and not really worth it to begin with. Maybe I've never had top-tier quality lobster but even the restaurant ones I've had were good, but not $40 for 3 ozs of meat good. The taste is pretty specific and I can't imagine it ever being so good that I would pay the "market" price for it. I'd much rather pay high dollar values for unique items or a new flavor experience at a place then 4 forkfuls of perfect seafood.

I grew up in New England, and the best lobster places were never the fancy expensive ones, it was some shack by the shore where you sit at a picnic table, get lobster that some fisherman just pulled out of the water in a basket with fries and corn on the cob, everybody wearing a lovely 2 cent plastic bib as you crack through the shell, dipping it in fresh drawn butter while drinking some local podunk beer. All that for $10. It's not fancy sea food.

I miss New England.

First guy I befriended from the MD coast told me he would never eat seafood at a place more then 10 miles from the ocean and if you paid more then $20 for a meal you got robbed. Crustacean seafood just doesn't really work as a cuisine when its not plucked from the sea, and the insane mark-up on it means most people can't eat it. He worked in a cheap "low-class" restaurant on the bay and how locals would drop buy with their haul and give a fair amount of it to the staff for cooking it.

Gordon Ramsay has a ton of youtube videos, but one of my favorite is the mitten crab. Mitten crab is a massive loving $$$ delicacy in China and people in Europe pay insane prices for it, but mitten crab live in the Thames and can be caught as byproducts of regular fish catches, however the bureaucracy in charge refuse to let people fish for them because of the fear that people will deliberately create new crab colonies and destroy the local ecosystem. People have gone insane over crab, lobster, clams, and shrimp in the last 30 years for no reason other then people have been saying its expensive and great, but in reality its not spectacular or amazing, just pretty good with a ton of hype.

You're making the 5 hour drive sound not so bad. Although the same can be said for crab shacks here in NJ or in MD. They look sketchy as gently caress, but there's a line by the time the first catch comes in, and it beats out seafood places by a mile.

No it doesn't. Here in Australia we have similar oil added spreadable butters. Western star (local brand), Lurpak (euro brand), a couple of other Euro brands plus even some local brands that use olive oil instead of vegetable oil.
But we also have "Mainland" brand from NZ, spreadable butter with no added oil, just glorious salt. It is superior and I can taste the difference compared to the premium import euro brands that have oil added.

Same, I use butter even though it's way more expensive, it's worth it. I would cry if I couldn't get Mainland spreadable butter even though it's $6 for 375g compared to margarine which is $2.

I use some Sunsomething product that is called "Buttery taste'. It's margarine but tastes like butter, which is nice cause I love butter the the marge has less fats, I think more salt though.

Those crab shacks are the same sort of thing. Some rickety building, piles upon piles of traps (do they catch crabs in traps like lobsters? I honestly don't know), and a bunch of picnic tables. Open during the fishing season, and that's it.

I'm in Los Angeles now, and my wife wanted a lobster role, which ended up costing $20. Not worth it. We used to go to her Grandma's place in Connecticut on the shore and go mucking around 2 foot deep water in the mud in the sound with our bare feet pulling up littleneck clams to steam. Or take out the boat and go fishing for flukes or stripers. There's nothing quite as nice as eating something you yourself pulled out of the sea.

And since that in my mind is food porn, here's something that's anti that. I'm pretty sure it's been in this thread already at some point, but Casu Marzu is one of the few things I would probably never try. Live maggots in cheese does not appeal to me.
