Foods we hope will be discontinued

As for Papa John's...........I don't hate it as much as I do Pizza Hut. I'd rather the Hut go away.

Fine, but the wings at Pizza Hut are pretty good. They're the only national pizza chain that actually fries them, and I respect that.

Also, whoever coded up their point of sale system was on our side: he put the dipping sauces somewhere in the system where they're almost impossible to find. Unless a manager is ringing you up, you'll probably get free bleu cheese or ranch.

I miss when chicken breasts were a third of the size they are now. No, I'm not buying your mutant bullshit, I'd rather have a normal turkey or guinea hens if I'm eating poultry that size.

Have you ever seen the videos where the muscles actually rip themselves apart because they weren’t meant to get so big?

That's fucking nasty.

Like Sangria. I like Jarritos, so I tried a Sangria. It's like wine but not good. I hope it dies, but it won't, because it's "cultural".

I recall supernatural chicken breasts being a narrative in Michael Pollan's book The Omnivore's Dilemma (2006) that I read back in the aughts.

I read his book after hearing an excerpt on NPR-style public radio. The main premise of the book for the most part IIRC was that "Big Organic" was really a mass production industrialized fraud that had more in common with feedlots than the quaint hobby farms they use in their branding.

It was a good read at the time, though I'm sure I'd hate the political bent now,

In the book, Pollan talked about chickens called "broilers" who have been bred industrially to have such large breasts that it alters the laws of physics and they can't ambulate properly.

They're called cornish crosses. People think its because they're pumped full of artificial hormones but its really just good old fashioned selective breeding. Its also funny how there is this big controversy about limited space for chickens when they're lazy bastards that just sit around all day and pig out. Also its arguably more ethical to slaughter them when they're young. When compared with other chickens you'd think they would be superior taste but apparently this is more controversial. In fact a lot of backyard breeders prefer cornish cross because it is so much easier.

Its funny how this area theres a lot of truth in the controversy but simultaneously a lot of ironic misconceptions.

Sangria is what Porch monkeys and loitering teenagers drink.

It was certainly a unique experience; one I hope to never repeat.

Here's some information and more pictures about Woody Breast/Spaghetti meat. I've had this problem a few times.

That woman washes her chicken. Fuckin' haram.

Anyway, I think I can see the white stripes mentioned in previous link. Apparently it's a separate disease, but a lot of chickens with woody breast also have white striping.

That goyslop frozen meal that's a "pizza bowl" or whatever. I saw someone eat it on youtube and its just a sausey sludge with bits of what's maybe meat in it.
this shit.

i dont think ive seen anyone buy or drink store bough sangria with the exception of very specific college parties

I'm not sure if discontinuing that is even possible.

Discontinuing over-ripening is surprisingly a simple process; arctic apples are genetically modified to stop the expression of polyphenol oxidase, an enzyme involved in fruit browning. Because of this, the fruit last significantly longer on the shelf, and can be potentially ripened on the tree before transport.


I hope this doesn't happen to bananas though; good banana bread has to have slightly overripened fruit.

You can just make this yourself. Why buy frozen processed slop instead? This looks like something that would only be consumed by an autistic kid with celiac disease.

 

[Señora Airi]

I can only assume that it's meant to be a keto meal, but even then, why would you do that to yourself.

my mom let me try her sangria once because she said it was good, yummy, and sweet. But she was extremely wrong. It wasn't sweet it was bitter and it put me off sangria ever again. But also I just don't like wine in general

When i think sangria what comes to mind is the cheapo store bought stuff. I can imagine sangria could be made better homemade but i am not sure i would use a good wine to make sangria, that stuff usually uses boxed wine or something similar.

I am much of a wine drinker either, it gives me heartburn every time a d Sangria tastes like the cringy non-nostalgic parts of youth.

Also, American ketchup needs to be replaced 1:1 by unsweetened ketchup. I don't understand the diabetes sugar obsession with adding that shit to literally everything. Same goes for the mass produced white breads. It shouldn't be some weird conspiracy tier lifestyle choice to try and buy goyslop without added HFCS, sugar or seed oils.

I go to the store, and they sell unsweetened ketchup-for a dollar extra. Fuck these people.

That's why I hate it so much. You could make it with so much less sodium and processed shit. Literally WHAT is the point of this slop? I could do the same thing on my own in less than 20 minutes with some cheese, sauce, herbs, and a stick of pepperoni and it'd still taste better and not kill me before I'm 50.

To be fair it was a nice restaurant, not fancy but nice. I don't really know what went wrong.

They probably still used the cheapest boxed wine they had on inventory.

Those chickens clearly went overboard trying to maximize their pump

I'd like to add those black sesame seeds to the list and those weird asian candy things that are basically flat thin sesame seeds coated in some overly sweet sugary coating. Disgusting. I still don't know who actually buys those things

and bubble tea. that shit is one of the most horrifically disgusting 'foods' i've ever seen

Zitner's eggs can just die already. They're tiny and taste weird thanks to shrinkflation and cheapo production. The ones in the box are kinda ok. But the ones in the bag are very sticky and taste off. But what used to be my favorite Easter candy now just tastes like sadness. Butter Krak eggs used to be like crack. Not any more. The individual wrappers are the same size but the candy is so small and cheap tasting. Don't buy them. Even if they are on sale it's a waste. Just get some Peeps. They still taste the same. But I found them less fluffy. Probably because they are a bit smaller.
