You're asking me to believe in sentient meat.
My first job in the service industry was as a hostess on the opening staff of a restaurant in Florida. One of the things the owner/chef drilled into our tiny little skulls before we opened was that you do not, under any circumstances, scoop ice with the destination glass. Glass is clear and glass can break - the gently caress are you gonna do if you break a glass in the ice machine/ice bucket?

I'm now a shift manager at a hotel/restaurant/bar in New Mexico, with my duties primarily being on the hotel side, but I spend a reasonable amount of time in the bar and restaurant. I see bartenders scooping ice directly into glasses, and it kind of freaks me out. Is that a frowned-upon thing or did I just have a really anal retentive owner/chef back in Florida?

What's the purpose of the grenadine dump? e: I assume it does something to make the ice melt faster, but do elaborate!

Here I was being all focused on functionality that I forgot that red is like the universal color for "No, stop."
