I hate when people leave the tails on shrimp especially in pasta dishes. Why not just remove it all?

I don’t care if someone salts the food that I made them before or after trying it. As long as they enjoy it, I’m happy.

“Best by” and “sell by” dates can go f**k themselves. If it isn’t growing hair when I open the lid then it’s getting cooked to 165F and that’s money in the bank!

People who are super bougie and refuse to eat mayo because it's "gross", but will then gobble up a trough of aioli if a brunch place puts in front of them are the absolute worst and can f**k right the hell off. It's fancy mayo, b***h. Get over yourself.

I've never eaten a dish that was made better by truffle oil.
Overwhelming taste and smell. Used solely to add 20% to the price of the dish

Using fresh tomatoes for a tomato sauce is a waste of time. Stop being bougie and used canned.
Unless you have a garden and a surplus of tomatoes.

Wrapping things in bacon is the best way to ruin any food. Welcome to this stringy wet meat blanket that only tastes like floppy ding ding and not like what you tried to put it on to begin with.
Bacon has a prominent flavor. It's going to be star of whatever you put it in so let it be crisp and delicious and not an accurate representation of your uncle's soggy love for you.
AKA STOP WRAPPING BACON AROUND THINGS
