Obviously it will depend on location and how burned out the employees are but normally Sonic's smash burgers are pretty legit. I don't know why they even have their normal boiled Sonic burgers still on the menu.

BoozeCube BoozeCube I'm being 100% serious, I was incredibly shocked. Their food hasn't been something I go out of my way to eat since I was a teen.

I go there because their menu is all day, and I work graves, so my hamburger options are not great if that's what I want for dinner.

As this came up in a derail. I am not an pretentious ice cream type. However real gelato has an entirely different texture compared to most American ice cream. There really isn't anything I can compare it to. It is unique in the way it feels and tastes. Its easy to get these days but you're looking for one like this where it says direct from Italy.

I recommend the ones with B6 & B12 - I always bring a case camping, great morning hydration.

I snagged a box of these fuckers at my last trip to Costco. I highly recommend, good shit.

I bought a couple bottles of the carbo sauce, and have been using it on everything at work. Good stuff. I also got a 16 pack of the big bowls of the regular kind a couple weeks ago. Loves those asshole burners.

Went to the Doctor today in Louisiana. So thought I would stop and buy some health oriented food. So a dozen Boudin Balls and a couple pounds of hogs head cheese. Would buy again lol. Pretty fast. Park, walk in, pay and walk out all of about 5 minutes. I've eat the Boudin Balls from there numerous times but first time for hogs head cheese. My grandfather and great grandfather made it often but I'm not a pig person.

Got these at Costco.


Most unbelievable foul thing I've ever tried. Like i get the sauce may not be up my alley, but the noodles were almost most of the problem. Dry line normal but after cooking they came out super slimy. Like wouldn't give them to a homeless person.

Not sure if somehow it was a fucked up batch or what.

Usually means you overcooked them. If you give it another try take 10% off the cooking time.

No not like Norman Ramen noodles, o know what you mean. I actualy ommitted i under did them. Called for like a 10 minute boil and i did hot water and 3 minute microwave.

Regardless the sauce was nauseating as well, so at a minimum im having to just damage the noodles with my own sauce

That could be from not following the instructions then. But if you didn't like the sauce either not much point to it. I have had some interesting experiences with genuine stuff like that from China. If you visit Denver again give the same dish a try at Hoong's Palace if they are still open. That place does real Chinese food.

This might be controversial but here goes...

American style Mexican food > real Mexican food
American style Chinese food > real Chinese food

We just do everything better, take what the world has and perfects it

Notice there's no american versions of british food, because not even the red white and blue can save that slop.

Real Italian food is an imitation of American Italian food.
