What is a gingernut? Is it like a ginger snap?

Seriously though ginger candies are amazing to help with nausea and I think they are tasty. I get the Gin Gins brand hard candies. They are pretty spicy though, kinda like ginger beer. I remember the first time I tried one, I thought it was way too intense but after I knew what to expect it grew on me.

Zipperelli. posted:What is a gingernut? Is it like a ginger snap? Yeah, looks like they are pretty much same same thing, except I make them with about three times as much ginger as usual, plus I put crystallized ginger on top. They do tend to shred your mouth a bit if you eat too many of them though.

All these nightmares and sometimes the simple things are worst. There was an "Italian" restaurant that's closed now that had the worst thing I've ever put in my mouth - bread served with olive oil with a can of cold, diced black olives in it. A whole can. I started gagging the moment it hit my mouth and I realized exactly what it was (I didn't look right at it at first and just assumed it was a tapenade or something). The restaurant didn't last six months even with angel investors

RBA Starblade posted:lol I don't think I've ever gotten more than five olives on a sub at Subway That's how it used to be years ago. Like, you essentially got one olive, sliced. If you asked for more they would be like "that's extra" Now, I say "a lot of black olives" on my Chicken Bacon Ranch sub and they put on a lot of black olives. I like olives.

I have a soft spot for subway despite all logic, but I get every sandwich with lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, all the hot peppers, and southwest chipotle sauce, so they all kind of taste the same. The southwest sauce works on everything and I love it. Even if I'm getting a pizza sub.

Data Graham posted:I give them the MORE PICKLES AND OLIVES glower until they accede to my desires  sometimes I have to say "look when I said A HANDFUL OF PICKLES & OLIVES on my sandwich I meant that literally. Pick up as many pickles as you can with one hand, and put them all on my sammich. Repeat for olives." They act like they're getting a bonus and it's tied to how many pickles are left at the end of the week.

Subways are all franchised, so this comes down to how much of a micromanaging dickhead the owner is. My old one was the kind where my sister would be able to get her sandwich made, then say "now put olives on it until I can't see the rest" and they'd do it.

The Subways in New Zealand are all rebranding to be a bit more upmarket so for the first time we finally have access to wholegrain mustard as a topping option and I don't think they'll ever be allowed to roll that back

Subway pickles are anti food porn.  Actually, Subway as a whole is. At least around my parts. We went to get some recently for the first time in years and came out sincerely feeling it had been a lot less pleasant than we thought it was going to be, and we'd known it wasn't gonna be stellar in the first place.

I went to one once where I said, no onions, extra pickles. I want pickles in every bite, not an occasional one here and there. They insisted on charging me for extra veggies, and I protested saying I got no onions, but they wouldn’t budge. Never went back to that Subway. Also, I really like the Whopper Junior with cheese at Burger King. When I ask for extra pickles, I’m lucky if I get three, and sometimes go back to the counter to get a little paper cup with pickles in it that I can add myself, but at least they don’t charge.

We get these for the break room at work - it isn't just broken biscuits, it's all the ones that went a bit wrong on the production line, like jammy dodgers where the two halves are completely off centre, or custard creams that got stamped with the wrong decoration. Always a good day when the broken biscuit assortment makes an appearance.
