If you're like most people, you've probably spent at least some time slaving away in the greasy, soul-sucking world of fast food. You know the drill: long hours, low pay, and the constant stench of deep-fried despair. Sure, the fast food industry might not be the most glamorous line of work , but it's a rite of passage for many of us. The ultimate character builder. Whether you’re in the trenches of a Taco Bell make-line or the front-of-house target for unhinged middle-aged women, it’s one of t…

Hotdog Mastery

Crimes against pizzakind

Call me old-fashioned, but I think every person should have to work a food position for at least a few months, once in their lives. I'm not the kind of person who'd generally hold a sentiment like that, but it's immediately apparent when you realize somebody hasn't. People who show zero empathy for workers, complain about how “easy” it is to do the job, and just treat their server with complete disrespect. You hate to see it. Cut your teeth as a busser for even just a month and you'll realize t…

Everybody likes their hamburger prepared in a different way. When I was a kid, I would order every burger with only pickles on it. No ketchup, mustard, or anything else was welcome on that sandwich. I thought that pickles were the only topping I could possibly stomach, but I would eventually prove myself wrong by adding onions to the equation. Basically, I was eating the stinkiest burgers imaginable without lettuce and tomato to soften the blow. Luckily, I wasn't in that phase too long. One tim…

Summer is officially here, and you know what that means? It's time to chow down on a hot dog at a 4th of July barbeque. Every American city has a very different idea of what a hot dog should be. I'm mostly talking about New York and Chicago because those cities will let you know when you're eating a hot dog wrong. Chicago citizens, particularly, hate it when you put ketchup on your hot dog. They see it as an insult to their city, culture, and way of life. There is a terrifying statue of a menac…

Everyone's favorite McDonalds monster is 52-years-old

Y'ARG MATEYS! This be a pirate meme compilation. My name is Captain Craig (I know, it's a lousy pirate name…I'm working on it), and I have a tale of woe that's worse than swabbing the deck for fourteen fortnights or even walking the plank. Our fierce pirate crew decked our ship on a deserted island, knowing there was bound to be some hidden treasure afoot. Ye ship's trusty boatswain came upon a big red X, and we knew it would be easy sailing from here. Imagine my surprise when Scallyway Steve d…

Cooking is a unique beast. For some people, knowing how to cook various meals is the top indicator that you can actually take care of yourself. Sometimes cooking is not utilitarian but rather an act of love or compassion. Other people do not care whether their food is cooked in their kitchen or not and see cooking and eating as merely a mechanism for survival. We attach many meanings to food and cooking, making it a very complicated and unexpectedly personal topic. At this point in my life, I c…

The Internet revolts after McDonalds does the one thing they should never do: mess with the price of a hash brown.
