    But if he was actually buying it for himself I’d think it was kinda dumb, especially since you could get a better steak for cheaper without fancy tin toil on it.

    Oh, it's definitely dumb, but I buy dumb things too.

    It is especially dumb, though, considering you could buy the gold leaf yourself and put it on whatever you want for far cheaper. Gold leaf isn't very valuable (also why I'm not particularly bothered by it -- it's a negligible amount of gold, it's not like its that wasteful of anything but money)

        brb blending up gold leaf into my hummus. genuinely curious now if that would do anything. i kinda feel like it would just get overpowered by everything else and not even change the color lol

          Nah, you gotta chop up some gold leaf and sprinkle it on top as a garnish. It has no taste and it's biologically inert so all you'd do mixing it in is make your poop slightly more interesting if it was studied by a poopologist.
