Ignorance, Immaturity and Irritation

POUTINE!!!!!! FTW

The Canadians might get mad at you for simplifying poutine down to cheese fries with gravy. Theoretically it's cheese curds and gravy. What exactly Cheese curds are, I dono :P
Though I want to try to authentic beast one of these days. The chef/owner of one of my favorite restaurants was quoted saying that he wouldn't be serving poutine (he is a Canadian expat) as you can't actually get proper cheese curds in NYC.

KFC here has always had a potato wedge thing, is this different? (Chicago)

They have those at every KFC I have been to (even ones that don't have biscuits have those damn wedges). Not a fan personally, they are always to dry in the center for me. And any way, why have those when you can have an insidious ball of lard cleverly disguised as a biscuit. Those are one of my all time favorite fast food items out there, I have been known to stop off at random KFCs when walking about Manhattan simply to get a biscuit or 2.

Aaw, dangit, now I want poutine! At 10:36am. o.O

T2: I want a wawa cup!

Send him to a Wawa store to get it. Then invite the Wawa store clerk to join us.

Curds are the solid parts when milk is soured. Whey is the liquid part. You may recall these from the nursery rhyme "Little Miss Muffet". Cheese curds are specifically the curds created when cheese is made. The apparent have a mild flavor, are springy (even being discribed as "rubbery") in texture, and are known to make a "squeak" when they are bitten into.

Börk, börk, börk!

I've made cheese. Soft cheeses, anyway.

I stopped. It makes an .... "interesting" smell in the kitchen. I now know why some dairies have a separate cheesemaking room.

The second I open the window, I get pegged in the face with something. I glance down to see a straw wrapper with one twisted end and look up to see T3 laughing his butt off with a straw in his hand.

Me: Really?!!
T1-3: HUHUHUHUHUHUHUH!!!!!
Me: *shoves the water at them and gives them their bag* Bye!
T1: Wait! We need sauce!
T3: I want mild!
T2: And I want fire!
Me: Well, maybe you should have asked before spitting things in my face. Bye! *slams the window*

Good for you! You shouldn't have to put up with jackasses throwing things at you. (Did you ever have to deal with that "fire in the hole" crap? I just don't get why people think that throwing things at the drive-thru clerk is so freaking funny. They wouldn't appreciate it the other way around.)

[EricKei]

And yes, I now crave cheese fries with gravy, this requires a trip to a dinner....

Roast beef gravy or red gravy?

Thank you, thank you! *bows* Luckily, no "fire in the hole" yet. Around here, people have done "hot soup" where you throw a cup of soup in their face!!! One girl in Cali got serious burns from it. I can't find the article I hope one day, cashiers turn the tables

Customer: Hey I need salt an...
Cashier: FIRE IN THE HOOOLLLEEEEE *whips ketchup packets at the customer*

Customer: Hey you forgot my...
Cashier: DRINK?!! *splooshes drink in face*

Hot soup?! I say we should pillory those jerks and have people throw hot soup in their faces all day long. I sure hope you can close your window super-fast if you have to.

I've read several stories on her about asshole coffee customers throwing their hot coffees into the barrista's face. I've also heard of variations on "fire in the hole" involving putting pepper sauce (or worse) in the cup. The crap people do to each other that they think is "funny" or "justified" just baffles me.

Of all the things to throw in a cashiers face, why pick piping hot soup?!! Do you WANT to injure him/her? Do you WANT to get sued and go to jail for assault? If they forgot the extra cheese, come back and it will be fixed no problem. Some many people need to think more use that think 3 feet above their ass.

The problem is that some people don't see a cashier or clerk or employee as a person, so therefore they don't think about stuff like that.

I think most SC's think, you work in fast food/customer service. Therefore, you are stupid and can't get a real job. Therefore, I can do whatever I want to you and it's ok. I'm successful. You aren't. I'm better than you.

When did Taco Hell start selling fries?

I'm thinking it might be a Canadian thing.

According to Wikipedia, it's some odd not-in-the-US thing.

Canada, Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, India, and Spain are the only countries where Taco Bell offers French fries, which appears in two varieties: Fiesta Fries (Topped Fries in Spain) (like Nachos Supreme, changing nachos for fries), and regular French fries. Chili cheese fries (fries topped with beef chili, cheese, and chives) are also available in Canada. The UK branches offer Mexican (seasoned) fries.

I love the Swedish Chef! (Waves cleaver...."Here chicky chicky chicky")

We have cheese curds on this side of NYS, dunno about NYC. They're tasty.

Our local A&W's carry cheese curds in large and small sizes. I've also occasionally seen them in mom and pop restaurants.
