Cooked scorpions taste like that jerky dust that comes in a can that looks like it's snuff. That pizza is probably edible but sorta disappointing.

El Estrago Bonito posted:

Not having a soda fountain is a HUGE red flag when it comes to eating anywhere. They are basically free to acquire because soda companies want you to buy syrup from them and sign exclusivity deals and it's generally accepted that most casual dining places will have one. If you're running any kind of place that serves food and you don't have a soda machine it usually means one of two things:

-You lacked the credit or very small amount of money to get one: again, huge red flag for a casual dining place because those kinds of places rarely manage to do more than break even for sometimes several years and if you can't afford a soda machine starting off you're probably hosed, and if you don't have the credit to get one floated to you you definitely don't have the credit to take a loan to keep your place afloat.

-You don't have a floor drain: this is also a red flag because anyone who isn't dumb as gently caress and is opening a casual dining restaurant will get a floor drain installed, in many places this also means you can't get taps put in so goodbye any chance of making money on beer. It also ties into the above, where if you lack the money to get a drain put in, the knowledge to know you need one or the credit to get a loan to get one installed, you probably should have done a lot more research before deciding you could run a business.

Yeah I agree for the most part, one of the only exceptions was at this little shack of a restaurant I found in LA back in July while I was there for Anime Expo, place only had canned and bottled drinks, but I had one of the best burgers I've had in a long time there

I saw these "corn snacks" in the supermarket the other day:



They look like packing peanuts and they're made of 100% corn.




And they taste like packing peanuts too! I've never seen them before and I don't expect to see them again, because I can't imagine anyone buying them twice. I have no idea who they're supposed to appeal to. They don't taste of anything much, and they get all stuck in your teeth.


And today I had a halal snack pack, which was actually really good, but looks pretty terrible.



That's chips, grated cheese, lamb, and garlic sauce.
Those corn snacks are shameful, but I would love to try a halal snack pack

Indeed all this kebab posting has lead me to look up kebab joints near my house, and I will have to go to one soon

That type of puffy corn snacks is somewhat popular in Eastern Europe. Mostly they come coated in sugar powder, which makes them at least palatable. Maybe you can even eat them as cereal with milk and what have you, I'm not sure.

Less cereal, more sludge, they probably dissolve at the slightest contact with moisture.

I went to dinner at my Dad's.



He's usually a pretty good cook but that meatloaf made me understand why some people say they don't like meatloaf,

I also tried making that crispy egg that was posted a bit back. I occasionally gently caress up eggs over easy but that was stupid easy to make. I used a little too much oil but it tastes pretty good. I'll probably make them again occasionally,

The ones kicking off the conversation are 100% cheesey puffs without the cheese dust but its not like they are unheard of in the US of in more sweet situations like breakfast cereal to be trying to pin them on eastern Europe or whatever.

Yeah, I'm familiar with the type of thing, it was the total lack of flavour that made them unusual.

I am mostly familiar with South Korean sweet corn stuff and it is cool and good. There is some minor headfuck involved if you're more used to eating savoury corn snacks but this is totally a thing.

Are these close enough?



Available in White Cheddar and Flamin' Hot, and only around Halloween.

eta: The Japanese version, while also called "Bag of Bones," are not specially shaped, but are yogurt-flavored and come in a glow-in-the-dark bag. :raise:
