Answer me this...

I have pretty much stopped eating out just this thing. For me it is not peanuts, it is shellfish. Even when you tell them that you have an allergy they have no idea what to do about it. NO YOU CAN'T use the same spatula to flip my burger that you just used to flip that crab cake, in fact they shouldn't even be the same cooking surface.

Yep, the wife has the shellfish allergy, and it has become more deadly over the years. I haven't been to a red lobster in decades, even if she orders something she can eat it will be contaminated. i really like lobster. She really likes peanut butter... Ain't we a pair.

We've been to a local red lobster twice in NC local in town to us, about 8 years apart. We went the second time to see if they got any better, they didn't, haven't been back in at least 6 years.

Funny thing, I'd go to red lobster with my father and mother in Reading, Pa, never a problem. Use to go to Reb Lobster in Meadville Pa (about 5 hours from my parents), never a problem.

Go figure.

No different than Micky D's.

Go to Canada and I've been told that they put mayo on hot dogs. To each their own...
I never thought about returning food before, but never had much reason to. If I go into a restaurant it's because I'm hungry.
But there was that time down in Gorham NH when I ordered a double Whopper at the drive through, but when I took a bite discovered there was only one patty. I took it back, went to the counter with the sandwich and receipt and pointed out the error.
She took it and went out back without a word, and I had to ask the other customers; "Where's the Beef"?

Pretty good pie right outside of Ft. Indiantown Gap off 81 just south of where 78 turns into 81.

My dad was discharged from the Army there, in 1946.

I'm very afraid that you would have deeply hurt Aunt Bea's feelings.

Barney called them Kerosene cucumbers

Have you tried shoefly pie yet? (probably more east of you if your central Pa now).

When my dad passes, we will have the dinner there, and shoefly pie will be on the menu (my dad wants it).

Mayo with fries? You are a mutant . That said, it's what you like. Just hope I don't have to watch it

How about scrapple? ummmm ummmm good

One time when I was a kid. Never went back.

That said, still remember when I ordered lobster as a kid and my dad told me I'd eat every bite for the price. I hated it and I don't remember the whole story, but there was grief on my end.

For some reason, grown fond of lobster as an adult (and my father will still bring up that old story), but never went back to scrapple

Apparently use to like raw onions as a kid (which I don't remember) but my mom use to remind me of. For whatever reason, don't like raw onions as an adult.

That’s all over the place where I live. Farm market nearby sells spicy scrapple that will knock your socks off

without looking it up, believe it was actually Clara (got to admit, it was a great commercial).

I never touched a grill until I hit my mid 50's, but after me and my wife decided to break down and buy a cheap charcoal grill (under $300), and we may end end buying something better down the road. Local cow from my friend. My sons even say my burgers are tasting better with more experience on my end trying different things out with the timing and temp.


Please note, the burger below was actually on my plate and not a "ad picture" LMAO

Also note, when having steak, I don't use steak sauce LOL

I think you are right - Clara was the little old lady yelling “where’s the beef”!

Good commercial.

She got canned from Wendy's because she appeared in a spaghetti sauce commercial ad, saying "I found it!".

(I knew that it was a Wendy's commercial when I said it... probably why I didn't get as much as a "Sorry about the mixup" when I returned to BK that day.)

A1 Steak sauce on the side in a puddle for dipping your steak or hamburger in is also great. But I am the only one in my house that likes it.

I dislike A1 as a condiment but I do use it as an ingredient in several of my recipes.

 

[Sigarms]

Way I see it, if a steak is good and prepared correctly, it doesn't need any condiments to make it taste any better

My thought exactly. I once went into a popular steak house and everything on the menu was gooped up some type of sauce. To me this is a bad sign. A good steak should not need it.

I’m with you on that thought.

My wife likes A1. I like Heinz 57. They also make a spicy 57. Sometimes I use those.

However, many times, I'll salt, pepper and worcestershire sauce them for a couple hours before grilling. Then they don't need any sauce at all.

What is hamburger, chopped ham? NO, it's chopped STEAK!!!!

I agree with those who say that a properly prepared steak doesn't need any condiments. I don't eat a lot of beef, so when I feel the need for a grilled steak it'd better be a good one. A little black pepper and maybe a dab of diary butter is all that I add.
I also like a slice of bread or mashed potatoes to soak up all of that nice juice...
