I knew someone in university who ordered a meatball sub with mayonnaise. Gave the clerk poo poo for looking at him weird. I don't think it was good but he was one of those dudes who wanted to be right and in charge more than having a sub that he actually enjoyed eating. It looked so bad and I wish I had a picture of the maranara and industrial mayo trying and failing to mix with each other.

steinrokkan posted:It's not to create more space for the filing. Scooping the bagel is the only way to eat a bagel without consuming the evil carbs. There's no other way. It's definitely not possible to simply not order bread in the first place if you refuse to eat carbs, no siree https://www.bonappetit.com/story/scoop-your-bagels posted:Let’s be clear: All bagels are great. (Except plain bagels—like...live a little for once.) But a chronic problem, as any regular bagel eater knows, is over cream-cheesing. There’s often an inch-thick layer of cream cheese between your slices of bagel, and it gets squeezed out on your first bite, covering your fingers and generally making a mess. A scooped bagel avoids that problem. “But what about the doughy to crunchy ratio?” You ask. What about it? There’s still plenty of soft, springy inside to munch through in a scooped bagel. No bagel shop has ever scooped a bagel into a completely two-dimensional object devoid of its doughy interior. In fact, I’d argue that the dough-to-crunch ratio is improved; you can experience the crackly crunch without the overwhelming gumminess of too much inside. Lastly, full-size, unscooped bagels make me straight up sleepy. Once I eat that amount of carbs in one sitting, I am done for the day. Everything about it sounds like it's for people who don't actually like or want bagels at all.

You could just... not put an inch of cream cheese on your bagel?? That sounds loving gross anyway just eat a brick of it like a loving dog why don't you. Stuff your nose in a tub of philadelphia until you choke, jesus christ.

Why don't they make bagel holes? Is a bagel hole just a pretzel nugget?

Especially when like, other breads exist and are also much easier to find. If you're removing half the texture anyway... Just why.

Wasting a bunch of food because you're very picky is pretty normal but I'm still not going look upon it kindly.

medieval (really, early modern) noblemens' cooks used to make their stocks from multiple roasts, where one would actually be served and one would be used to create stock and then thrown away, because the whole point of noble feasting is to ostentatiously waste food in order to show your wealth and power (also for humoral medicine reasons). after the french went choppy choppy those now ex-servants made restaurants where they started to give a poo poo about economics so they switched over to making stock from trimmings, as continues to this day but scooping out the centers of your bagels seems pretty unostentatious as food-wasting moves go

I'm sure some people take a single taste of their favourite food and then throw it away as a dietary measure. I pity them.

Like pulling the seeds out of a zucchini cut in half lengthwise with a spoon, except for bread. What I can't wrap my head around is that someone throws that bit away. Why on earth wouldn't you eat that?

I can't shake the feeling that it's some kind of strange diet fad thing where people have blurrily absorbed that "gluten" is a bad thing, but they missed the whole memo about how it's a specific disease that specific people have, not just "bread in general is bad for you" Thinking about people who say they don't eat gluten but then have a roll at dinner because "oh I'm cheating, I'm so bad"
