Back when I worked at Burger King in high school, there was me and a stoner running the late shift. I'm running the drive through and the guy wants a Whopper, plain but heavy, heavy, heavy, [...], heavy, heavy pickles. I push the "heavy pickles" button about 7 times. He probably said it 15-20. The stoner starts giggling and says "I'LL GIVE THIS FUCKER JUST WHAT HE ASKED FOR." He proceeds to put, easily, 100 pickle slices on the sandwich. At this point it's a pickle burger with a little meat. It goes out the window and we go about our day.

Manager gets a call about 15 minutes later. Guy calls in and asks to talk to the person who made his sandwich. Manager says "sigh, what did he do this time?" Guy says he's been eating at Burger King for 15 years and this was the first person to make his Whopper the way he wanted.

I struggle with spices. I make it clear at every Indian/Thai places that they should pretend I am from their country in terms of spice levels. That they literally can not make it to spicy even if they tried. That I want them to gag and cough and cry just being in the same room as my food. And yet all of them fail me.

At Thai places ask for "pet mak mak"

[-] afraid_of_zombies@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago

Noted. Thanks

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago

Try Tibetan. It's a kind of spicy I've never experienced before or since. I'm not a huge spiciness fan, but it's totally different from the spiciness of Indian or Thai food, the spiciness of Mexican food or even the spiciness of horseradish. I do know that I took a Mexican friend to a Tibetan restaurant and he bravely ordered the hottest level of spiciness and said he totally regretted it.

The only place that ever puts as many pickles as I want on my burgers is Harvey's.

As you described, it's a pickle burger with meat.

You would have made my fucking day, month, year with that burger.

Just give me all the ~~bacon and eggs~~ olives you have. Wait, wait. I'm worried what you just heard was, "Give me a lot of ~~bacon and eggs~~ olives." What I said was, "Give me all the ~~bacon and eggs~~ olives you have". Do you understand?

[-] farcaster@lemmy.world 66 points 11 months ago

Got any fried chicken?

Best damn chicken in the state.

Bring me four fried chickens, and a Coke.

You want chicken wings or chicken legs?

Four fried chickens. And a Coke.

As a fellow olive lover, this looks delicious!

❤️Olive You ❤️

[-] frickineh@lemmy.world 15 points 11 months ago

Yeah it does. I ordered pineapple and olive this weekend and they gave me like, 6 olives on the whole thing, so I'm very jealous.

[-] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 14 points 11 months ago

Oof. That sucks. I'm so sorry about your pineapple pizza.

.... Not that there's anything wrong with that.

As an olive hater and tomato sauce purist:

that's not even a pizza anymore.

[-] general_kitten@sopuli.xyz 34 points 11 months ago

well it's called a white pie so i guess it never was

[-] halcyoncmdr@lemmy.world 21 points 11 months ago

Tomato sauce purist you say...

You realize tomatoes are not native to Europe at all? They are native to South America and weren't introduced to Italy until the 1500s. Even if you consider pizza at all to be Italian, the pizzas we know are a far cry from true Italian pizza.

[-] cryptiod137@lemmy.world 25 points 11 months ago

Was there even pre-tomato pizza though?

[-] Drivebyhaiku@lemmy.world 18 points 11 months ago

Yup. Pizza as a word to mean a flatbread with toppings pre-date the arrival of tomatoes in Europe by a good 1400 years ish.

Just like how ketchup originally was just kind of a type of plant matter derived sauce with a runny consistency that utilized a fair amount of salt. Tomato ketchup was at one point a fairly new fangled novelty as for the longest time the favoured version of it was made of mushrooms.

The tomato more than most tends to just take over certain parts of food culture and drives out all other varieties. It's kind of the cuckoo of the food world.

Bread was invented in Egypt so by your standards "true Italian" pizza can't have that either.

Our olives will blot out the sun!

[-] airman@infosec.pub 23 points 11 months ago

Then we will eat in the shade 😌

[-] rustyriffs@lemmy.world 30 points 11 months ago

That actually looks really tasty. Lol

I love it that there's a container with some extra olives too (i'm assuming)

[-] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 28 points 11 months ago

I went to Olive Garden restaurant once with a friend of mine, and during dinner he made the claim that Olive Garden consumes 20% of the world's black olive supply. I couldn't convince him of how ludicrous this was even despite pointing out the measly two slices of black olive in our shared salad bowl.

in what country do pizzas cost $30? edit: damn your pizzas are either huge or expensive, here in finland a standard pizza costs about 12€ and with 25€ you get heavenly pizza made with the best ingredients baked in a wood fired oven. And i thought food here was expensive

[-] Sotuanduso@lemm.ee 18 points 11 months ago

The same place where you can get that many olives on a pizza without paying extra, I guess.

[-] FunkyMonk@kbin.social 18 points 11 months ago

Vegan Cheese expensive AF.

[-] zeroblood@lemmy.ca 9 points 11 months ago

Canada for one, a large pepperoni at my local pizza place is $28. Most of the loaded type pizzas are $35-$40 for a large.

[-] jjjalljs@ttrpg.network 9 points 11 months ago

I live in nyc. You can get large plain pie for $18 from most places. Toppings are usually about $4 each.

But there are expensive places. At work we ordered some pies for an in-office event last week. The guy picked a fancy place where all the pies were at least $30.

Eh pizza from these types of restaurants already isn't that healthy to begin with and your body can more than tank the effects of an occasional special treat like this.

Just remember to drink a lot of water.

Nah, it's a lonely birthday order. Those have immunity before the pizza criminal courts. As have "I was just cheated on" and "my pet died* orders. Ohy and "fuck this sounds disgusting but I'm pregnant so this ain't even the weirdest shit I've eaten in the last week " orders
