Akratic Method posted:Honestly, the funniest possible outcome is that the order is real. I don't have high hopes, but there's probably at least one rich weird and terminally-online Garfield fan in the world. The funniest and best possible outcome would be that one rich, weird, and terminally-online Garfield fan in the world was also a cyber security expert and managed to steal a shitload of bitcoins back from scammers who constantly blast your phone, turn them back into real money successfully, buy the whole order legitimately, then donate it to food banks. I know it's likely just silly stuff, but a man can dream.

Hmm, after reading the last page I suddenly got an Instagram ad for Peroni, an Italian beer I’ve never heard of.

It’s nothing special and pretty much the default Italian lager. Would pair well with a frozen lasagne.

No, the funniest scenario would be if someone legitimately tried to buy $500k of garfsagnas only for Nathen to nix the deal because he thought it to be fake

There are a lot of interesting ways to gently caress with this kind of thing through lol. I think tricking an idiot into donating a bunch of food to people who need it would be the best though.

Pastry of the Year posted:It's easy, but it takes a lot of time and effort if you want to do it right. In restaurant circles lasagna is a dish that is usually avoided because it's almost guaranteed to be something frozen that is reheated, it's not a food that really benefits from being made fresh in a kitchen by professionals.

yeah I think that every country plays heavily on this, maybe Asahi and Kirin are the exception? they taste ok to me but they're also relatively more expensive Tennent's Super seems to be the beer that manages to unite chavs worldwide, here in Italy it's super popular because at 9% it fucks you up pretty quick

Lol "order Garfield's favourite food...and stuff" You can see the thought process as they sat around making GBS threads this content out. "We can't just say order Garfield's favourite food, we sell merch and pizza and stuff" "...and stuff" "Good enough"

Peroni is really nice tho, but yeah a bit expensive over here in not italy. Stella artois is quite expensive here as well and im in europe. Seems like a thing every country does, local beers turns expensive when they go abroad. wonder if its a tax thingy.

I'm confused as to why the big cow lasagna wasn't named the big cow agna. If you're going to create a weird naming convention, stick with it.

mediaphage posted:a reminder that in the us fosters (bleh) has a famous ad campaign that ends with slogan: “Fosters! Australian for beeyah!” I ended up with one of those oversized cans of Fosters recently and ended up drinking it to regain the fridge space, and the stuff over here in the US is definitely different to the piss juice back home in the UK. Still not good, but tolerable. Fosters as we all know is also Australian for ‘export this poo poo because we won’t drink it’. I once saw Stella in a restaurants list of ‘microbrews’ and I still haven’t recovered. Not sure the US stuff retains the ingredient of violence in the UK version, which is probably for the best.

Lol. I guess one year the brewing program I was in visit led the Stella brewery during their your of Belgium. They asked what hops they used and the head brewer was like "Whatever's cheapest." apparently.

It seems odd that Orsons Farm/US Acres was not tapped into. There aren’t enough food related characters in Garfield to promote a product line that includes more than simply lasagna. Fitting that it wasn’t even made in the store. They just heated it up lmao

There aren’t enough food related characters in Garfield to promote a product line that includes more than simply lasagna. Liz, Nermal, Odie and Lyman weren't tapped at all. At the rate we're going, it'll be several hundreds years before we need to stoop to US Acres for content.
