there are many paradoxes that leave us scratching our heads not the least of which is the lasagna Paradox today we asked the question at what point does one lasagna become two lasagnas this is a hot dog as a sandwich ketchup is a smoothie yeah I put ice in my cereal so what that makes no sense hot dog is a sandwich a hot dog is a sandwich what’s up Welcome to our podcast a hot dog is a sandwich the show where we break down the world’s biggest food debates I’m your host Josh sharer and I’m your host Nicole handisade and today we’re answering the question when does one lasagna become two lasagnas and you might be asking yourself the question why would you talk about that let me explain this is something that gets drug up on the internet every couple of years it stems from a viral tweet in 2017 that states if you put a lasagna on top of another lasagna it’s no longer two lasagnas it’s one giant lasagna that is the power of lasagna but I’m not so sure this to me is called the lasagna Paradox in my mind when does one lasagna become two lasagnas exactly Nicole what do you think I’m gonna tell you when that happens when you need a second pan that’s whenever it becomes two separate lasagnas so you’re saying that or lasagna yeah that’s another thing that we need to bring up the plural of lasagna is not lasagnas it is technically lasagna but also in actual Italian Italian language there’s no such thing as a singular lasagna it’s always lasagna because there’s multiple noodles that is neither here nor there but the Italian plural thing always comes up I I’m a little bit flummoxed about this right because to me if you use two pins but then you stack the other lasagna on top of the first lasagna and unsheath it from the pan and slice into it and plate it that’s still a single lasagna I’m kind of of the mind that no matter how big a lasagna is no matter how many pans are used once they are stacked on top of each other or even laid side by side I think that is still one large lasagna I mean this honestly gives me hives just thinking about it like imagine going to a party and like you see a huge stacked lasagna like that it was kind of it would kind of make me uncomfortable like I feel like it would just be like a uh it’d be dangerous you know top all over it’d be a disaster like if I come to a party and someone asks and I bring two lasagnas okay I have one little pan of lasagna in one hand and I have another pan of lasagna in another hand the same exact recipe they’re the same exact thing and someone says how many lasagna did you bring I’m not gonna say I brought one lasagna I brought two lasagna and if someone and if in a in like a parallel universe I’m like let me put it on top of each other which would never actually happen IRL like it’s still two lasagnas that just happened to be be on top of one another I I love that you are approaching this and this is very you you’re approaching this from like a practicality angle right you’re like well practical woman I’m a practical girl you are practical and that’s why I think we really balance each other out because like I’m thinking about this from like you know this weird philosophical perspective right like I’m like this to me you said it gives you hives it gives me like death anxiety thinking about the lasagna Paradox because I’m just like oh god there it could be a world in which there is just an infinite lasagna that exists forever but that is still one lasagna in the same way that we are all on our own timelines and when we die we turn into Stardust and all we do is be reabsorbed by the Earth that’s how I’m thinking about this and you’re just like if I’m going to a party I need to tell the host how much lasagna there is if he got two pins I brought two lasagnas you’re welcome for bringing backups yeah I know like honestly if also Janice and Janet are invited to this party which Janice is bringing one lasagna Janet’s bringing the other do you have like friends or cousins named Janice and Janet I have no relatives named Janet or Janice this is just something that popped up in my head and we’re just gonna go with it hopefully this podcast extends infinitely like the infinite lasagna which is still one lasagna it is not I’m sorry the dish the dish you bake it in is the determining Factor like if I again if I bake 17 lasagnas and I’m just like let me put them on top of each other and put a skewer so it doesn’t fall it’s still 17 damn lasagnas okay they’re just separate okay okay okay hear me out hear me out hear me out what okay okay okay what if with the signature Trevor clap what if you had a pan that is 1 17 the size of another pan right so picture this pan 117. why would I own that why would I own oh my God you you’ve watched the stupid tiny Food Kitchen series on tastemade are they you know tweeze her in a little hot dog into a little bun and then a freaking hamstrings or whatever they make tiny pens okay humor me you’re going to a tiny person party and you have a pan that was 1 17 the size of another pan say you bake 17 individual lasagnas inside the tiny pan and one large lasagna you have the same volume of lasagnas but then if you take out all 17 individual lasagnas and then reassemble them into the pan 17 times as big you will have two identical plates of food re-melt some cheese Over the Top If you want to but you’re saying that since they were cooked in the smaller pan one of those pans contains 17 lasagnas and the other one only contains one lasagna despite being completely similar we have to talk about the layers of lasagna how many layers do you need to make a lasagna I think if you have three distinct noodle layers that’s a lasagna do you agree with that statement I agree with that I believe that is the base base minimum for lasagna Hood I’m trying to sing five five Ryan you’re crazy ain’t nobody got time to make a five layer lasagna who am I in a garden right just my house in the Hamptons your own damn lasagna man cool me Nicole got stuff to do we’re making three layers of lasagna and it’s fine you think anybody on planet Earth has the time to make a five layer lasagna get the heck out of here you’re too crazy doesn’t give a crap crazy person five layers of lasagna well I don’t know it’s just like this weird like image I have of like just an infinite stack of lasagna yeah that’s one lasagna but that’s if the Panetta was baked in creates that lasagna in whole I think the addition of stacking bastardizes the lasagna because again lasagna like has a very specific top if I take like you know the beautiful crispy bubbly top on a lasagna stacking it on top of each other doesn’t do it for me that’s just two lasagna stacked on top of each other it’s not one lasagna anymore because it’s that deviation of that top bubbly crackly top you know what I mean that like doesn’t allow it to be one it’s not cohesive enough for it to be one I I find this a very very compelling argument and I don’t know if I have anything to refute it because I kind of I agree with you on this point of once you set the final layer of that lasagna which is your third and final because we got stuff to do we’re busy people yeah we have jobs on top of the podcast but yeah once you set that layer of cheese and then you bake it off to me once you’ve started that baking process it is set as one lasagna right that I I do kind of think I do kind of believe that and so if you were to stock another lasagna on top of that because you have that differentiating layer of the crispy cheese which set your intention of making one lasagna once you top it with cheese and bake it your intentions have been set that this is a singular lasagna and if you were to stack another lasagna on top of that I understand that when you cut through it it might look similar but that little layer of crispy cheese to me belies your intentionality to create two separate lasagnas so I think I might agree with you on that it’s like I really don’t there was this pizza place in La that like everyone is going off on they’re like oh my God Josh you would love this place you gotta go in which one which one they’re good they’re good people apollonias apollonia’s in mid city oh my oh my so bad crusts oh I I ate the pizza and as soon as I bit into it it was this like floofy large puffy Detroit style crust but all the cheese and sauce came off it like all slid off into my mouth and I was like that’s really weird that this doesn’t all together and then I found out what they do is they bake the dough separately and then top it after it’s been baked with cheese and sauce and then bake it again and to me I’m like well that this isn’t Pizza like to me the pizza what is it bread I don’t know it’s like it’s like a top Focaccia because to me like a pizza like the Lasagna that like you’ve set an intention of like you’re putting the toppings on the raw dough and then you’re putting that in and there’s like magic that happens inside of that when like you know the sauce kind of creates Steam and the dough gets a little bit tender under it to me that’s the same thing as the lasagna like you can’t just cook all these separate noodly layers and then top them on top of each other and think you’ve created lasagna like There are rules to it but at the same time it is pretty identical Nicole if you were served one pan of lasagna that had been stacked on top of another pan of lasagna say it was even you know wrapped in foil and then like he reheated in the oven a little bit and you cut that thing open you would have no idea that you’re eating two separate lasagnas right no I wouldn’t but if I’m the one setting the attention then I would know and I wouldn’t feel right doing that to somebody lying to them like that is not in my moral compass I wouldn’t notice but I feel like I would have been duped by the cook but I mean that’s what I don’t like I don’t like being duped I don’t like it but this is you know this is cipher talking about steak in The Matrix right it doesn’t matter it doesn’t matter Nicole if we are living in a simulation right now if we are living in The Matrix it has no bearing on all of our feelings and emotions whether or not it’s a simulation or reality because we don’t know our emotions and feelings to us are real in the same way that the stake decipher bear with me in the same way that steak even though the steak is just a series of binary code it is still juicy in your mouth it is still chewy it is still hunk of animal flesh by your experience so if you are eating that technically two lasagna pan and you don’t know that it’s been cooked like that that’s still one lasagna to you so who gets to decide is it the Cook or the eater whose perception is reality within the lasagna Paradox oh God we’re all gonna just die one day and then it goes to nothingness Nicole what are we doing I need a parent you’re talking about some weird metaphysical stuff that I clearly cannot wrap my head around I saw the Matrix for the first time like a year like four months ago and I was like whoa I need to put my phone down for this movie which I never do I always I always like look at my phone as I’m watching a movie because I have undiagnosed ADHD thank you very much and like you’re so bright yeah I guess I guess it depends who’s setting the intention and who gets to decide who sets the attention I believe it’s the chef so that’s the person making it’s a person making the code the lasagna code so you’re saying that like Whoever has cooked the lasagna essentially gets to decide how many lasagna there are based on their attention if so if they used one pan no matter what it is in the cook’s eyes so if you were to ask a diner like how many lasagnas are in that pan they would be like I have no idea I must defer to the person who set the intention of that lasagna I mean you can just ask the cook in the back yeah like hey hey man what’s up how many lasagna did you make like it’s just a question okay it’s not that serious this is the most serious question I am so fascinated with this question because it’s ridiculous and this kind of speaks to another thing that I think is hilarious about you know the way people talk about food like people use the term slice of pizza as a quantity right like oh my God I ate four slices of pizza I’m gonna be feeling that tomorrow but like a slice of pizza can literally range you know from anything to anything depending on how big the pizza is like what we should be doing is talking about the weight total weight of that food Josh have you ever had Nagila Pizza before it’s kosher pizza I’ve never had it before okay so literally they cut the pizza and it’s literally the size of my pinky finger it’s crazy do you like that because I like a big old floppy slice like I need and I’m really particular about how my pizzas are cut well this is dude it’s like kosher pizza and pecan Robertson and I’m not expecting some Michelin star situation but like yeah there’s something nostalgic about eating a slice of pizza that’s literally the width of your like pinky I think it’s really cute but uh that’s neither here nor there uh so you’re so you’re saying that so like if I have a lasagna and if I if it’s like three sheets and then I put another lasagna on top of it and it’s six sheets and it’s nine sheets in total it’s still one lasagna I think so yeah what you’re telling me I mean I would also ask the question of like what is the minimum definition of a lasagna because hear me out so we talked about the minimum amount of layers we both agree that you need at least three layers for it to become lasagna two which is kind of like a broken up stupid ravioli one little lasagna roll up those are fun but it’s not a lasagna when you say like I made a lasagna to me it has to be at least four large Big Mac Daddy portions of lasagna right okay at least four individual proportions have you ever had a single person lasagna ever have a Stouffer’s lasagna yeah it’s depressing I don’t want to relive that no I mean um the Stouffer’s family lasagna is great I grew up they have individual lasagnas don’t they have individual like this is your personal lasagna they do but I wouldn’t even call that a lasagna it feels weird to me to call that a lasagna I would call that like a portion of lasagna like a oh my God I mean think about this if you ate a slice of pizza you wouldn’t say like I ate a pizza right you ate a slice of pizza to me lasagna again the intention the the intention is set of making a small personal lasagna it is baked in one pan it is served to you in that pan and you eat it oh I have a point can I make a point you call the whole point of this podcast is for you to make a point okay so what if you have a lasagna it’s a beautiful tomato tomato Bolognese with Bechamel and then I made a vegetable pesto lasagna and then I put it on top of it does that make it one lasagna oh that’s tough because like I said with when we’re talking about the like intentionality behind it like if you put the crispy cheese layer on top of one you have set you have to find the fact that that is one lasagna but if you put it on top of another lasagna that is identical in you know character you wouldn’t notice the difference however yeah if you’re throwing a pestle lasagna by the way the best lasagnas I’ve had in my life have been lasagna Verde yeah yeah same I love lasagna oh my God AR cochina Akasha Richmond she made the best damn lasagna I’ve ever had in my life I don’t even know if they’re still open really that slap dude it was so good but yeah if you put like one of those on top of another one God how do you justify the fact that like it’s just one big differentiated lasagna because you could of course create one lasagna with separate ingredients so say you create a three layer lasagna that is red sauce with Bolognese and Bechamel but then before you bake it you keep just throwing layers on top of it and you add you know pesto and whatever else you’re doing and then bake that is that one that’s one lasagna of course it’s one lasagna it is in one receptacle and it is being baked in that dish it is one lasagna with two flavor profiles no doubt about it that’s like saying uh that’s like saying you’re sorry I’m like really perplexed it’s like hitting up here it’s like getting a pizza I wish I wish people could see my face right now because they’re like my eyes are bulging and I’m like hyperventilating like you get one pizza and it’s half mushroom half Olive do I say I got I just say I got one pizza it’s half mushroom half Olive I didn’t say I got half of a mushroom pizza and half of an olive pizza I baked one pizza I sliced it in halves these and then I put toppings on one side I put another set of toppings on the other side it is one pizza divided into two parts but it is still cohesively one okay hold on same with the pesto hold up hold up but what if you had what if you had one pizza okay because this is the thing I used to do so Domino’s Pizza Hut they all put out these like online coupons right that are like a normal Pizza is 18 dollars from Pizza Hut but if you get three one-topping pizzas you get them for two dollars a piece all their deals are like that it’s like so much cheaper if you do whatever they’re like three medium one toppings are so my family we would you know want a three-topping pizza sausage olives and mushrooms is my go-to but since it was so cheap we would get one pizza with olives one pizza with sausage one pizza with mushrooms and then I would stack them on top of each other and eat it is that you made a pizza lasagna young man that’s what you just did just picking Pizza lasagnas as a young kid to satisfy the Domino’s coupon ordering system which by the way fantastic all their deals are so great my God they all they you throw on a Cinna sticks for like two dollars extra at the end get a little two liters you’re speaking to a coupon queen I was born and raised on couponing and couponing alone not an extreme couponer I’m not at that level but I do save all of my CVS coupons I save all of my online like pizza coupons too so I totally feel you but yeah you made a lasagna Pizza lasagna look at you you gross but what would be different about if you took a pizza that’s half mushrooms and half olives and then folded it over on itself did you make a calzone yeah you made a pizza calzone lasagna cows okay wait hold on let’s work this out let’s Pizza calzone lasagna so we’re gonna go pee hold on I’m gonna I’m gonna sound this out pezonia back when I was a kid when you went to the grocery store we would exclusively buy things that were on sale and it didn’t matter what they were it was literally anything like we would go to the Frozen aisle and just like whatever had the little like manager special and it didn’t matter the actual value so I grew up like literally sampling the entire freezer out because all they do is just stamp like rotate out what things are on sale yeah so I feel like I have this categorical knowledge of literally every like frozen pizza frozen lasagna all that I will tell you the best one is the Stouffer’s vegetarian because it has the creamy alfredo sauce on it and that stuff is 80 hydrogenated oil and parmesan cheese and that is freaking delicious shut up that’s a good one hey hot Doggers we wanted to tell you about our exciting upcoming event mythicon heck yeah we do mythicons are first ever immersive weekend experience with the mythical kitchen Rhett

remember when like you would go shopping and your mom would like specifically get the uh the like yellow stickers what were they the Yahoo stickers yeah like yeah the sale stickers that would literally on milk that would go bad in like 24 hours and you just like get it get it it’s good that was literally my little eye do people don’t know if you go if you go in any major grocery store and you go to the bathroom right next to the bathroom there is just like a wire rack that is filled with old pastries that they sell for like a quarter price and it’s great yeah cinnamon rolls are at their best people think they’re at their best when they’re fresh out of the oven not enough cinnamon rolls are best when they’ve been sitting outside of a women’s restroom for three days getting all nice and crusty that is cinnamon rolls the bread over there that’s perfect for like French toast and bread pudding like those are the ideal breads you know the ones with little spores on it the mold I mean it’s blue cheese is just mold you can eat moldy bread no don’t eat moldy bread this is a disclaimer that is being said by Ryan in his head he’s telepathically telling me right now please don’t eat moldy bread and don’t you’re welcome Ryan also who uses the bathroom at a grocery store oh I uh yeah no I use the bathroom or grocery stores a lot and unsurprisingly I I’m one of those people that if I’m leaving the house for more than 45 minutes I like need to know where the bathrooms are because you’ve seen me I drink so much caffeine throughout the day I’m constantly I drink like nine Lacroix a couple Diet Cokes and 32 ounces of coffee and so when the liquid’s just running through you you need to find a place to put it and so for me yeah public libraries are always good people don’t know this but 7-Eleven does not have bathrooms it’s corporate policy I did know that yeah Starbucks are great all right back to lasagna so where did we leave off we’re talking about I was talking about the size of lasagna being important to me I understand that you may feel differently as in like I don’t feel an individual lasagna qualifies as a lasagna right John Size Doesn’t Matter when it comes to lasagna oh yeah you say that uh no size size absolutely does matter and like what is the tallest possible lasagna you think that you can make while it’s still qualifying under the definitions of like a lasagna because I’ve had like 100 layer lasagnas I was just about to bring that up that’s a really really awesome tasty video that’s like an epic tasty video where this guy just makes a hundred layer lasagna and that works you know he’s created a vessel in which he can make one complete total lasagna correct yeah and he just bakes it like that yeah and I think if you can make the perfect baking dish that can fit x amount the limit doesn’t matter the vessel doesn’t matter and like the layers don’t matter what matters is if it’s baked in one and that’s the tell if it’s baked in one vessel the layers don’t matter the Size Doesn’t Matter wait but could you take all I need is a minimum how many three how many how many bakes can the lasagna go through though are you saying that like you have to boil them noodles and layer it and then once you bake it no matter what it’s set or you don’t have to bake the noodles you ever heard of no boil noodles young man yeah Paris Hilton exclusively uses those in her lasagna this is we should have had Paris Hilton on this because she created the most viral lasagna recipe video I’ve ever made where she just flamed her own food producer it was just like normally I don’t boil the noodles this is pretty stupid that I have to do it but whatever and she’s like carrying her dog with her that was wild what if you took like a leftover lasagna and then you freshly Sauced and cheesed it and then put another leftover lasagna on top of that and then baked it because to me like you are creating an entirely new dish why would you do that what is the pointy leftover lasagna I like I freshly Sauce Cheese why would I put another lasagna on top of what lasagna I don’t know you don’t like to party of course I do that’s not my version of a party that just it’s like a lasagna sandwich that’s weird I don’t understand that act of putting one lasagna on top of it or the lasagna it’s just excessive sorry it is excessive but this is your bubble but this is like the hypothetical because I’m I’m torn on where I actually am landing on this because I get the idea that once you have put it in the oven it becomes a lasagna and then if you add anything on top of that it is multiple lasagna at that point but I still struggle with the fact that it would be imperceptible to any normal person that you know you have stacked two lasagnas on top of each other I think it might still be one lasagna especially if you re-melt cheese on top of it because I get this idea of like stealing it it’s like um you know getting baptized as a baby or circumcised or whatever the yeah well no hold on to it because I know nothing about no it’s like a christening like it’s uh you know you’re not a man until you’re Bar Mitzvah it’s not a lasagna until it’s crowned with cheese and baked no that’s not true you don’t need to top it I mean I would like for people to top it with cheese but like it’s not like it has to be okay so say then you create a three layered lasagna that is not topped with cheese and crusted over right because it’ll still crust over won’t it because of the top noodles that there’s a top Noodle Wrap it in foil then wrap it in foil so it steam that’s not a good lasagna that’s not the question is it not a good lasagna or is it not a lasagna yes it’s still considered a little okay okay bear with me so you bake a three layer lasagna that you have steamed and not gotten a crust on and you have baked two of those and then you overturn one pan onto the other one and imagine this the noodles there’s no crusty cheese there’s no differentiating layer this is SOG noodle on SOG Noodle and you put another pan on top of it that’s only that’s still a six layer lasagna like it’s nothing that would be suspicious because I understand from a Diner’s perspective you see like this 30 layer massive lasagna you’re like yo that’s more than one lasagna though someone there’s there’s something a foot but in this hypothetical scenario this is a normal six layer lasagna all of which have the identical textures throughout and then and then you top it with one layer of cheese and sauce and bake it are you saying simply for the fact that there were multiple pans involved that this six layer was lasagna is in fact two lasagnas you would walk into a party and go no you’re not enjoying alisonia you’re enjoying two lasagnas you look crazy Nicole Janice and Janet they’d be like Nicole’s crazy okay I strongly believe I strongly believe that cooking two separate lasagnas regardless of crustiness or suppleness of the noodles creates two separate lasagnas and I will stand by that till the day I die sorry buddy even though no one could possibly tell the difference and it Bears literally no differentiation to it cooked in one shot my problem is who would do that who is out here doing that okay like like sure hypothetically yeah okay but who’s doing that in the real world who the frick is coming to a party and layering lasagna’s like hey look what I did I made a really big lasagna like no one is doing that there’s no one actually trying to like find trees in the woods that have fallen without anyone having heard them and recording this okay you know what I’m saying like these are you know what they’re paradoxes they’re fun questions you know what I want our listeners to make the tallest lasagna humanly possible I want them to tag us a mythical kitchen and hashtag dreams become food because I want to see this happen if you can make a tall lasagna that will totally like debunk everything I’ve said I will swallow my words Nicole you’ve heard what you and I have to say now it’s time to find out what other wacky ideas are rattling out there in the twitterverse it’s time for a segment we call um one day we’re gonna actually record in the same room again [Music] Twitter we got at Cameron hold this might not be a F but I think the only way to finish a cup of tea is to suck all the liquid out of the tea bag let’s break this down I’m not even focused on sucking the liquid out of the tea bag I’m focused on the idea that this might not be a food opinion I firmly believe that all drinks are food and not all food are drinks I believe that drinks I don’t know about that one Chief I think that anything I think we need to talk about that a lot I think that any I just want to introduce this idea I believe that anything you ingest that gives you nutrition so like tea you know you’re getting herbs or whatever in there that is nutrition anything you ingest it gives you nutrition is technically a food because like it’s chicken broth a food or a drink right if you’re drinking it out of a cup uh I don’t know it’s super food or we need to talk about this on the podcast yeah so first of all I believe this is a food opinion because I feel like drink opinions are technically food opinions because all drinks all drinks is food that should have been the title of the podcast I agree with that we’re gonna talk about it another time but what do you feel about sucking out the liquid out of a tea bag it’s funny I actually grew up drinking a lot of tea because my grandma’s from South Africa so she like thinks she’s British and so she’s like a cup of tea then it’d be like you know some Lipton tea bag from 1974. uh but no I’ve never sucked the liquid out of the tea bag I leave the tea bag in there for a long amount of time because I like to drink lukewarm tea because I have a very sensitive little mouth and then I and then I just take my hands and I physically ring all the liquid out of the table yeah I’ve never put my I’ve never directly put my mouth on a tea bag and sucked yeah I haven’t done that either I don’t go a I was like you I don’t think you should do you should do exciting no it yeah keep it keep it at home keep it at home keep it at home yeah keep it at home okay uh let’s see vishnui 24 says my brother’s favorite sandwiches are with mayo on one set and jelly on the other um okay no just do butter and jelly mayo and jelly I can’t I can’t I’m sorry I can’t I love how we all like we always talk about how 90 of the comments we get are weird peanut butter opinions this seems to be the first weird jelly opinion and I’m into it shockingly shockingly I have never tried a mayonnaise and jelly sandwich but I’m literally down to my last piece of bread in my apartment and I have good quality red plum jelly and good quality mayonnaise and I am about to do that for lunch because it sounds really good to me the sweet the salty you got creamy you got kind of syrupy I’m into that I love that and I like mayonnaise over butter on bread the eggginess of the Mayo would just kill it for me I can’t I can’t wrap my head around it I’m sorry only one way to find out put it in your mouth uh you do it you do it for us okay at Bean 3194 Ruffles sour cream and cheddar potato chips with leftover spaghetti sauce this is the best way to use leftover sauce I’m curious they didn’t specify are they heating up the sauce or leaving it ice cold there’s no specification but leftover implies that it’s probably cold yeah I would probably eat this honestly but what I would do is I would probably mix it with a little bit of cream cheese and make myself a little spaghetti dip and then you know go to town I like that this is basically just like uh you know a tasteless version of like chips and salsa like just marinara sauce and ruffle sour cream and cheddar which that said sounds really good I also love that like mixing any sauce with cream cheese and especially baking it that is responsible for like 90 of like Tasties early recipe views there’s like ah buffalo chicken yeah party pizza dip and they’re just blending things with bricks of cream cheese and dipping chips in it that said really delicious I dip any chip in any sauce it’s gonna be good yeah most of the time I agree with that c-l-e-b-y-u-l because I don’t know how to say that name clebul okay opinion casserole steak sauce is the best kind of sauce it tastes good on all meat except fish IDK why you’d put steak sauce on it you’re the one who brought it up we didn’t bring it up uh yeah uh I think they’re just saying any sort of like protein source is good with steak sauce um I don’t like steak sauce I feel like it tastes like molass to see ketchup with Worcestershire sauce which is pretty much what steak sauce is I just don’t like it I just like pure meaty meatness in my mouth I don’t need the extra sauce you don’t you don’t get down you don’t get down with A1 I’m like like you get cheap steaks whatever oh no my dad does though and that’s why he has diverticulitis I don’t know I I love a I love A1 is such a nostalgic taste for me like I feel I’m I feel like I’m at the Sizzler or the chili is enjoying a nice you know 1099 sirloin I genuinely love A1 and I think it’s like a really interesting sauce because it’s basically American fish sauce with the Worcestershire in it it’s literally like raisins in fish sauce and I love it uh is HP Sauce the same thing in in the UK is that what it’s called HP Sauce yeah I think HP brown sauce I think it’s called there might be a steak sauce I’m not sure I think it’s a little bit different but they do have kind of similar like raisiny type of palette to it yeah I I don’t I don’t get it yeah I’m gonna just gonna catch up on the steak I like chip and steak but I won’t eat A1 and steak I don’t know I think it’s two it’s it’s two msge for me to like it like masks the meat for me yeah yeah that makes sense all right at tmsr rocks cottage cheese and rice pudding together make an amazing dessert or snack so there’s a lot of different theories to Wine pairings right Nicole so a lot of people think if a lot of a lot a lot will think that if you are drinking a wine that has say Blackberry notes in it then you should pair it with say a Blackberry streak whatever the blackberries are gonna play off each other blah blah a lot of the times what ends up happening is that the blackberries cancel each other out and you taste you yeah taste the blackberries in either that’s what I feel about cottage cheese and rice pudding because you’re not going to be able to enjoy the texture of the rice by itself or the texture of the cottage cheese by itself it’s all going to kind of muddle together so I don’t know that I’d like to mix them I think this might be like a dietary thing like you know they’re trying to enjoy their rice pudding but they’re also trying to cut like the fat and the sugar content by enjoying it with cottage cheese that’s kind of what I thought whenever the reason why they did this is like oh this is like a fit version of like pudding you know kind of how you eat broguard all the time it’s the same exact thing maybe we should explain broker what I do for a dessert is I take Greek yogurt and I just apply it full of protein powder and I insist it tastes like pudding but what it really tastes like is protein powder and yogurt because that’s what it is and I call it Burger yes this is is like uh like this is kind of like bogert in a weird way in that sense I respect it okay this is another drink one but still a food opinion hey underscore um underscore it’s underscore me water has a taste and not all water tastes the same I agree listen drinking Arrowhead water is uh gross and I hate it drinking Dasani water is freaking disgusting that’s disgusting yeah I hate this it’s disgusting um I like uh Smart Water I like Fiji Water but I never drink Fiji Water because like who am I trying to impress La tap water fine I’ll take it um there’s this one water that’s from Hawaii that’s like filtered through like coral reefs that is like the best I had it at a rich person’s house and my life was forever changed and then I went to their house and I took like seven water bottles yo I love rich people water like you had a bottle of water is the best like a bottle of boss like one of those glasses oh my God what a what a good looking bottle of water uh no water does have a taste the one water that I can’t stand is Sparkletts I find it like incredibly bitter I think Aquafina has the same taste of sparklets but I grew up drinking arrowheads so I love Arrowhead and I don’t mind Dasani but no the taste of water is really fascinating to me because it all just comes from like very like micro mineral content but you’re right it does taste like really different from other ones there’s a dude uh one of the Michelin star groups in La patina they have a freaking water sommelier who will like actually pair Waters with different things and run through water tastings and if I ever do that unironically then I know it’s time for me to be put down uh a water some is a little much yeah but I do agree with this statement that water has different tastes hot sauce that’s a job that I’d like to take that’s a job you should do I support you all right at Sky X gray Dr I think yeah they write a lot of dirty fanfic about me what up Skye at Sky X gray drinking Sprite through a Twizzler is a straw is the best movie night combo I degree except sub out Sprite for Coke Zero and sub out Twizzler for Red Vine the superior licorice stick honestly I’ve never had like I’ve never had a side by side of like a Twizzler and a red vine so like whenever people talk about it I just use it interchangeably because like it’s not that important to me but this sounds good this sounds like dessert in a drink and you bite the straw and you do a little sip sip do a little bite bite via Lobos says soup is not and can never be an entire meal anything that is uh I don’t know what that symbol is is that a less than a greater I’m so sorry anything that is greater than six years and liquid is a side I’m so sorry I don’t know simple sometimes you’re fine your math teacher Mr Burger failed you it’s Mr hamburger Mr hamburger oh my God that sounds like a fake name food has been in my life forever food has always been a constant somehow somewhere um do I agree with this uh you know I’ve had soup as a whole meal you ever had lentil soup delicious and feeling you ever had minestrone delicious and filling ever had french onion soup delicious and filling this is not true I’m sorry that you write fanfic about Josh but I don’t agree with this and your opinion is wrong cynical what if you had a bowl of stew and then you took a cup of liquid and he added it to that stew does that then become a soup now that’s very different time uh Josh why would you do it because I want I’ve done that I’ve intentionally watered down stews like all over salt to Stew my bad and to save it I’ll just water it down and turn it into a soup that’s normal that’s weird man I don’t know you’ve seen me cooking in the kitchen I’m reckless with my salt levels I literally just throw it in there sometimes you gotta water down your stairs and make them soup uh no I love I love soups as an entire meal especially a big old bowl of like Cambodian noodle soup oh what a giant filling meal that’s delicious yeah Pho is soup it’s a full meal ramen soup full meal get out of here at praise sharp burnt marshmallows that are black on the outside and white and gooey on the inside taste better than lightly toasted marshmallows when I toast a marshmallow I light it on fire I count a one a two a how do you do and I blow it out and then I put it in my mouth directly I agree with you I love burnt marshmallow flavor I love carcinogenic marshmallows so much more than perfectly golden marshmallows my boyfriend loves perfectly golden marshmallows and I just and I’m just like my stick is in the fun I’m just like Yay most the time and anytime someone I must set a disclaimer to say that I trust science two anytime you hear like this causes cancer it’s become so easy to roll your eyes and just be like oh I know everything causes cancer the carcinogens of charred food is like very real I like read the actual study like I did a whole like uh term paper on the aspartame study causing cancer and Diet Coke and like I don’t believe those results whatsoever they actually had to walk back the study but the whole thing about like uh charred food causing carcinogens that’s like a very real thing and it’s wild that you know we just do it because it tastes pretty damn good yes I I agree I mean I haven’t done the study but I trust you so yeah Sapphic underscore full Big Mac and Cheese isn’t even that good bye you don’t know what you’re talking about I I do sympathize with them because I used to have that opinion and it just turns out I was eating the wrong baked mac and cheese uh and so no you just need to get a good baked mac and cheese in your life I’ve think there is room for both creamy stovetop mac and cheese and delicious like dense chewy cheesy baked mac and cheese in your life oh yeah but yeah if you can very easily screw up baked mac and cheese so I understand where you’re coming from but like you are dead wrong open up your horizons absolutely at this guide Frank’s Hot Sauce can easily go on a PB and J I I am realizing later in my life Nicole as my tastes in my palette and my wants become more clear I don’t I don’t want to mix spicy with sweet I don’t want it why really I do I just you I think it’s because I you go to so many like fancy restaurants in La and they don’t have like full kind of pastry programs right like fully devoted pastry chefs and so they’ll just be like uh we took a chocolate cake and then we I don’t know here’s a Chipotle caramel on it or something like that like those are one little trick to like oh look at me I’m doing a chefy thing and so many times it’s like damn this would be a good dessert I don’t want the burning in my mouth to exist right now so Frank’s hot sauce on a PB J I like hot sauce and peanut butter but to me PB and J like that’s one of my go-to desserts at home uh and so I wouldn’t personally hot sauce it but I respect your right to do so I wouldn’t hot sauce it but like if I had a if I had a uh peanut butter and then I had a jelly that had a certain like twang to it like if it was like you said a Chipotle Blackberry like preserve I’m down with that yeah I feel that Tim Tim in the office gave me a strawberry habanero jelly and that was really delicious shout out Tim you’re
