Yes! Agree 100%

NP. I posted something similar here in a discussion a long time ago, and someone replied that I must be fat and should stick with Cracker Barrel. Oh, DCUM.

Small plates are great if I want 2.4 bites of 7 different dishes. Although I don't mind it for late-night dining (which is a euphemism for drinking).

Agree completely. I’ve eaten so many tasting menus...years later, I can recall exactly one dish - the dragon breath thing at Minibar. Everything else is a blur. Tasty at the time but completely unmemorable except for the tedious amount of time it took to consume it.

Mushrooms, cilantro and sushi are the best. (Sushi is only controversial with about half of people).

This.

And I'll raise you and say no one needs to eat animal products, period.

Need to? Of course not.

Want to, because they're delicious? Absolutely.

Yep, and answer that perpetuates the selfish and entitled paradigm.

You're right. they are delicious. And they also have to DIE for your pleasure.

I hope aliens never invade this planet. You: Please don't eat me. Them: (in a whiny, entitled voice) But you're so delicious, I can't help myself...

And, frankly, this is what makes me so sick of all of the #wokeness. Save all the humans! Every life matters!

Oh, wait, animals? F**k 'em, they're delicious.

Hypocrites.

I think meat should be eaten sparingly and with great respect. Especially in light of environmental strain. However, what about the circle of life? Are you going to go lecture lions about eating gazelles? Also, you better make sure you don't own so much as a pair of leather shoes or a leather-bound book, otherwise you're a massive hypocrite.

Ok, I'll play. What does "sparingly and with great respect" look like?

And I can't quite follow the line of thinking that compares lions eating gazelles with the way humans farm animals for the specific purpose of killing them... What we do is not the circle of life. What we do is wide scale murder (yes, I know the actual definition of murder - but what else is it?), simply because "they are delicious".

As far as other types of consumable animal products, I was not brought up this way. This is a late in life recognition and choice, so I do my absolute best to ensure that I am doing better every day in my choices - and at least I register that there is hypocrisy in my journey. All the people screaming how lives matter and then chowing down their KFC, rib eyes, or whatever? Sorry, that's hypocrisy.

It is impossible to have a conversation with someone who is incapable of differentiating between human and animal lives. Having different standards for how one treats humans and animals isn't hypocrisy, it's rationality. JFC.

Oh-ho, so you DO wear and own leather. You probably have animal products in many of the products you use (go read the label on your cosmetics and brushes). Got it! Hypocrite, hypocrite, hypocrite, not engaging with you any further.

Yes! This should not even be controversial but it is.

This is 100% correct. Filet mignon is steak for people who don't like steak.

What IS the best cut of steak? I like filet mignon, but am open to liking other cuts too.

Original PP here. I'm partial to bone-in ribeye. Second choice would be bone-in NY Strip. Hangar steak is good, but I have to be in the mood for it.

I agree. Ribeye is my favorite.
