Things that are pissing you off- Food & Drink Edition

I spent about 90 minutes first thing this morning cutting habaneros for various preparations.
My hands were double-gloved.
Didn't do a damn thing.
I wash my hands on average 30 times a day in an average shift. I've washed them about 50 times today, and it won't stop burning.

After several minutes, they call to him across the dining room, to come over so they can ask a question. In a loud, shrill voice, "We were just wondering what this fish is?" She was holding up, in her fingers, one of the perfectly seared scallops that Chef had just talked about to the entire room.

How were their boobies?

As far as I could tell, they looked like scallops.

That is much more offensive than not knowing about food.

I cut up habaneros this past Sunday. Wasn't thinking and accidentally rubbed my nose vigorously because got some random dust in it. **** burned like a motherfucker for hours and Monday my hands burned for a good six hours.

People who argue that a fillet is the best cut of beef. I counter that, no, the ribeye is superior as it has much more flavor and is just as tender. They come back with, the ribeye is just a bunch of fat, so you're wasting a lot of money on fat. Yes the ribeye is marbled, the fat is where the flavor is. Well, the fillet must be the best cut, because it's the most expensive. Logic fail

After the argument we get to lunch at a seafood place and the guy orders a fillet medium-well.

Just to tie this whole thread back to Style,

how is this argument different from the clothing argument, highly regarded and held dear here, that the likes of Kiton are "BEST"?

What kind of gloves? Nitrile would be my first choice.

It's not, and I think it's safe to say that pretty much any argument of "X is the best because it's the most expensive" is a fundamental failure in logic.

A man cannot possibly be prepared for a 500 cover Wednesday.

only way to get rid of the burn is to eat the pepper. by the time that stops burning so will the other spots.
