"American cheese" aka "sandwich cheese" aka "plastic cheese" aka "analogue cheese" aka "not real cheese" aka "American cheese"
:cringe: culinary exquisiteness; gotta have it on a steak.
It's like paul joseph whatshisname with his salmon + grated cheese but considerably worse somehow. At least the guy here isn't trying to own the libs I guess
American cheese is pretty good on sandwiches if it's not that plasticy kraft stuff.
I still laugh at Trump being the first American President to openly represent the Put-ketchup-on-steak-demographic.
Gonna take the hot take side here and say good for the person ordering this. Gotta respect someone going "I know what I like, idgaf about it being unconventional or improper"
Sure this wouldn't be what I'd do, but hey, if you know how you like things and you can flagrantly just say screw how fancy this place is I want some goddamn cheese product, good for you
this is food liberalism, and you shouldn't waste the chef's time and training ordering food just to ruin it this way.
how long does it take to slap 3 pieces of American cheese on it?
you're not understanding it. Putting cheese on it wastes all the time the chef put in before that.
The person at the end still enjoys it, I don't see the waste
It's the chef's own fault for not knowing how to make a Mornay sauce. It's not even hard
Yes, people who think they are better than others because they eat dead animals the right way are cringe af.
I'm not talking veganism or any of that or even specifically this post, I mean in more of a meta sense if you know completely ignoring the details of this post and just looking at it as who cares if you do something that other people dislike that makes something more enjoyable/easier for you if it doesn't hurt anyone
I wasn't really making a point about veganism either, just agreeing with your take and maybe adding that eating shit like this medium rare is not really considered refined by most people.
Agreed, but if they enjoy ruined steak let them have ruined steak
This is my entire family I'm describing so I've made my peace with it.
They're still wrong, tho.
I'll do ya one better: Half the people I know enjoy plain cheese quesadillas with ketchup. I've long since made my peace with people enjoying foods that I find to be foul
Do they know what they want? I kinda wonder if this person would be just as content with a some hamburger meat, clearly their pallet isnt too refined.
Good point, also anyone with this kind of money to throw around is probably an asshole, but even so if people are snooty assholes and you just want your food the way you like it, good for you
King! Tomahawk steak is cringe. The name is probably just more than a bit racist. Also, its the same damn steak you were getting before, but now it costs double because we left the bone in!
Clearly this guy gets that.
A T-bone or ribeye is fine, but this is just a stupid gimmick. I am seeing it now for the first time and I am repulsed.
40 oz is 2.5 lbs or 1.13 kg. 17,163 liters of water consumption. Wasted for a joke. Am*rica, indeed.
Imma keep it real with you mate, I really don't get the "water consumption environmental cost" like, of all things being destroyed to make that piece of meat, drinking water is the easier to recover/never run out off.
I'm more worried about
piranhas, Bartdesertification.Water is a reuseable resource, like land, but overuse can cause artificial droughts and other problems. EG growing cotton and other water-intensive crops along the Colorado in Arizona needlessly causes periodic drought in California.
Ah yes, we have something like that too in a lot of regions, but the main source of food here are the Pampas where we don't really need irrigation and good water for cattle is found anywhere.
good water for cattle is found anywhere.
Sure, fertile heartlands have a much higher water "budget" than the steppes etc. Still, I sure hope the Argentinian government knows how much water the agriculture industry uses, and at what level it would start to cause damage to the environment.
Deforestation of the Chaco biome to plant soy for a few years until the soil is totally ruined is a more obvious environmental problem not being addressed, and I really don't think they will address it properly in the near and not so near future :agony-deep:
God, how many people died for land in Chaco, only for them to ruin it for a bit of money. That's fucking grim.
The market demands it, if the people really wanted not suffer periodical floods and droughts, nor being killed for living for generations where the bulldozers want to go through, they should just pay a better price than soy markets. :ancap-good:
Fresh water can very much run out in a lot of places, and water overconsumption can contribute to desertification.
Bro, water falls from the sky
Read up on the water cycle. It's wild
"Wait, what do you mean the water table is dropping? Muh water rights :("
Seriously though over-consumption of water will drain natural aquifers and turn the region into a desert. It is a serious problem in western US states.
That place should never have been populated to begin with
Does this look like a place humans are meant to live?

water in the sky has to come from somewhere, there's only so much actually.
"Yo, Fredo, can you put some melted velveeta on these oyster-spaghetti"
Vicenzo: "Don't touch the fettuccini. Leave this place inmediately"
Most of the places that serve tomahawk steaks are the sort of places where the Chef is the big honcho in charge
I guess this one isn't
