Hometown Buffet’s pot roast

There was a restaurant named Salt & Fat near me, and they had this thing where they would braise oxtails and shred off all the meat, then pack it into one of those giant ice cube trays, then deep-fry a cube for your order. The flavor was so intense, just the beefiest beef, and they served it with this caramelized onion purée and sautéed enokis that taught me I actually do like mushrooms. They also served popcorn popped with bacon fat as an appetizer. It was a tragic day when they closed.

My neighborhood also had a couple cheap Indian takeout places, the same way you have cheap Chinese takeout places. One of them, their fish pakora was big chunks of salmon encrusted in spices (no flour/breading/batter) and then probably fried, and it was incredible. I used to want to go and ask if they’d show me how to make it, but I was too shy, and now it’s lost forever.

Ask me about my wealthy lifestyle and passive income! I love bragging about my wealth to my lessers! My opinions are more valid because I have more money than you! Stealing the fruits of the labor of the working class is okay, so long as you don't do it using crypto. More money = better than!
I miss gum and mints with real loving sugar. Almost everything has artificial sweeteners and no it DOESN'T taste as good as the original nor does the flavor last as long.

Back in the 80s I remember getting milk from vending machines. The milk I didnt care for but there was also a juice vending machine somewhere in Buffalo NY we used to go to and damned if I don't miss that fruit punch or whatever the hell it was.

Jif made almond butter for awhile that, while expensive, was the closest in consistency to actual peanut butter I've ever found in my life. As someone who developed the inability to eat peanuts later in life I miss peanut butter sandwiches sooo much so finding that was like a blessing.

But they stopped making it years ago and I have only recently (three days ago) found a suitable replacement called Barney Butter.

This peanut butter was amazing. It was just slightly crunchy so it still spread like creamy without tearing your bread up.

My standard answer is PB Max, literally the best candy bar I ever had and so of course it was a victim of the Mars family head's infamous "peanut butter is gross lol I am a whiny baby who runs a candy company [which sounds like a good thing]." It is the only thing I think about that I used to eat all the time that I actually would return rather than just looking back on the food nostalgically.

Like Yo-J, which was undoubtedly my favorite drink that I could convince my mother was at all healthy and thus allow me to have all the goddamn time. O.K. I might want Yo-J back, too

Edit: Also related I am proud that I liked Orbitz back when people thought it was objectively disgusting that there would be things floating in a drink rather than paying extra at the boba shop for it

The fat kid in me misses 2 long lost 1980s McDonald's items. The McDLT, gimmicky but awesome, and a one time Christmas promotion McNugget sauce which was basically just Apple Cinnamon but it was sooooo fuckin good. The Salty and sweet of the sauce made it, plus who doesnt like apple cinnamon? I think there was also a cranberry one, but I might be misremembering that one from somewhere else.

It wasn't really good but I sorta liked the short-lived 7UP Gold that was around in the late 80s. It had a spice flavor to it and I think it was an unused Dr Pepper variation.

What the HELL? That's my cutting board.

There are two places I miss that were unfortunate Covid casualties. The first one was your standard Chinese Restaurant with 100+ variations of fried chicken breast with sauce. But it was one of the best Lunch Specials locally with your entree, rice/noodles, egg roll, wonton and your choice of soup. It died sometime in 2021 and has gone through a few replacements, the most recent being overpriced Tandoori with belly dancing in the evenings.

The other place that I truly miss was a Vietnamese restaurant that also served Kronos Gyros. Pho, chicken gyro with extra tzatziki and enough fries to put Five Guys to shame was a great deal. Unfortunately it's now a Samurai Sam's and has a Bitcoin ATM next door.

It is important to avoid confusion. This is the one that's okay to lick.




These had an incredible tang (prolly citric acid) to them that I can't find in other guacamole-flavored chips. My partner loved using them as a base for chilaquiles. Apparently they might be a thing in the UK now?



I love me some cherry Dr. Pepper and this was the cherry-est Dr. Pepper there ever was. I also liked that it didn't have caramel color and it just felt... lighter?



These are still made but I can't get them on the west coast and haven't found an analog. Soft but don't turn to mush under a juicy burger.
