Agree. Over them. I don’t really liked cured meats either. I don’t get the appeal at all

I can sort of see the appeal of serving a compound butter on a small plate with the herbs on top. But the point of a compound butter is to flavor the butter by mixing in the additions, so that also seems a bit besides the point?


The grossest part is that no, they're not using knives, they're saying people should just dip their bread in and scoop it up. So gross.


Would that seem gross to you pre-COVID? Because that's how people eat dip. Not that unusual.


DP, but it’s the smearing that really grosses me out with these. Most people don’t smear dip around and many put some on a plate separately and dip from there. These are just… so gross.

Isn’t that all good? Remnants are never pretty.

The mechanics/cleanliness doesn’t sound so different than chips and dip or salsa.

I mean, as long as you’re not double-dipping, I don’t really see what’s gross about it. Messy, yes. That said, I am not a fan of this trend.
