Not that kind

It's eating time

The most important holiday

Delicious!

Choosing the right ingredients for a sandwich is essential, and even when you do everything right, your sandwich can still end up gross. I've made many questionable sandwich-topping choices throughout my life, and I'm at peace with that. I spent at least a calendar year ordering burgers with only pickles and onions on them; I can only imagine what my breath smelled like during that year. I also regularly got black olives on my sandwich when I went to Subway, and let's just say I wouldn't make t…

Who is responsible for this?

Not everyone can be a renaissance man, woman, or person. In fact, it's straight-up unrealistic to think everyone in the world will have diverse set of interests and hobbies. For much of my sad little life, I've felt like a boring person. It's not because I'm feeling constant tedium, and, surprisingly, not because I have zero talents. The feeling of dullness I feel about my personality is due to the fact that all I really care about (besides my loved ones) is food. Cooking it. Eating it. Looking…

The internet was so much simpler when everyone labeled anything slightly non-normative as “cursed.” Any image that did not depict the most normie, understandable, easily graspable concept was designed an affront to God or some kind of spooky

There are some creations that people out there thought were brilliant when they came up with them that really shouldn't have come into existence at all. In fact, we should ban these people from even further participating in society. Items that make this list include the “peeing Calvin sticker" and “tow-hitch testicles,” both of which are worshipped and frequently used by a certain particular demographic. Other things that I'd put on this list include subscription services for things that should…

It seems like a couple of years ago, all of our friends were baking beautiful loaves of artisan bread and sharing their creations on Instagram. There was also that banana bread phase, the Beef Wellington phase (Thanks, New York Times). I don't bake, but I posted my fair share of foodstagrams during the pandemic. But after a while, I kind of lost interest in sharing. I even lost interest in c ooking. Being forced to cook all my own meals for a few years kind of took some of the joy from the proc…

If there's one dumb thing in the world that people love to get heated over, it's food. Most people (unless they're sociopaths who'd rather take a pill than eat) have intense opinions about that stuff we need to eat to survive. The opinions can be as normal as “X is the best place to dine on X,” or as freakish as the Swedish belief that bananas should be on pizza. And no, we're not making that one up. As anyone on the internet can attest, people who like pineapple on pizza get ragged on regularl…

Food can be an incredibly polarizing subject, especially when you get into regional delicacies. I've recoiled at the thought of eating Australia's Vegemite, and the pungent, gooey mess of natto - a fermented soybean dish from Japan. But neither bothers me as much as the questionable-looking chop suey sandwiches of New England. Before this weekend, I lived a pretty innocent existence where food is concerned. My biggest food complaint has been with deep dish pizza, which is actually a tomato soup…
