MY SWEET BABY JESUS THE SMELL.

I was there in the middle of summer and the entire city smelled like a Red Lobster dumpster. Still worth it for Coop's jambalaya.

Edit:
I just realized it was so good that I still remember the name of the place having visited it only once well over 10 years ago. Goddamn is the food good down there.

I also miss the modern sections with Desmond. They could have been fleshed out more but the weird modern day Templar/assassin lore like you got in AC2 (especially in the subject 16 bits) were great.

The Chronicle reports that another main issue with Houston’s traffic attitude is that people generally don’t fear law enforcement when driving dangerously. The paper found that Houston-area law enforcement sends out fewer officers for road enforcement and gives significantly out fewer tickets

Now that I think about it I didn’t mind the Desmond ones either.

The current ones however are awful. It also doesn’t help that the amount of time between sequences is so long that when they pop up you’ve forgotten that they even happen so there’s a minute of confusion like wtf is happening right now?!

Why does Houston always come up in this conversation anyway? I've been to cities in Florida with more appeal. And I like living in Houston, it's just not great.

I've been thinking about it a lot and I'm ready to definitively declare that all hate of mayo or ranch dressing is performative

Yeah there's bad mayo and bad ranch dressing just like there are bad naps or bad puppies but the concepts in general are universally enjoyed actually

I'd pour freshly made mayonnaise on just about anything edible. However your bog standard mayo in a jar tastes terrible. It's good when you make it yourself or when you finally find a brand that doesn't taste like stale fat.

The same can be said for any bottled fatty things. Bottled dressings in general taste old or like the preservatives that made them shelf stable.

Kraft or Hellmans is pretty gross, I'd only ever use 'em as a base for an actual sauce. I've heard good things about Dukes but I've never had. My regionality dictates that I must stan Miracle Whip. Homemade is the real way to go though.

Ranch is just gross though, it destroys any other flavor paired with it. Cool Ranch Doritos are GOAT though

We haven't had that spirit here since 1969.

Ranch is fine when you're dipping a carrot stick or broccoli floret or cherry tomato into it. But it somehow becomes gross as hell when it's put onto a salad made of those very same vegetables.

I think it’s the more even application when you’re dipping. In a salad you can get highs and lows of ranch concentration.

Ranch is good seasoning but ranch dressing is gross outside of a Buffalo wing scenario.

Mayo is good though. Miracle whip literally makes me sick when I taste it.

I don’t put ranch or blue cheese on my wings and don’t see the appeal of either. They’re already sauced! A dipping sauce is just going to cover up the flavor I ordered.

The blue cheese makes the wing sauce taste better.

The best wing sauce is the jerk sauce if they have it. Like it's not even close.

I stan ranch but you're right.

However, phuo: just call it loving blue cheese. That's how everyone says it, that's what bleu means, no american on earth can say "bleu" correctly, and it sounds douchey to say it correctly in an otherwise english conversation anyway. Blue cheese dressing, top tier sauce for hot rear end wings.

I think dressing is fine on wings that are meant to taste good, but when you want your wings to hurt you stuff like that just gets in the way.

A ranch tip for right and good opinion havers: The bottled ranch is not the best. Make it from the packets instead. One packet, one cup buttermilk, one cup Duke's. Adjust it one way or the other depending on how runny you want it

That's what most restaurants do that aren't using Sysco ranch (which is also good if you can get your hands on it)

Also if you go down the rabbit hole of making your own from scratch remember to add the msg which a lot of recipes leave out for reasons

I made a lot Jimmy John's jalapeño ranch back in the day and it was the greatest skill any restaurant job ever taught me. That poo poo is good. Also it's the only thing at JJ's made in house.
