I wonder, because you could infer a lot here.Get rid of government regulation and restaurants can do whatever they want.Or the mom and pop places aren’t as good as the chains?
I remember when my folks’ restaurant served “expensive” burgers, at $0.35, and the “new thing” was faster burgers at $0.19!! The “contents” of those cheap burgers was in “question”. But, there’s certainly no benefit in government “being on the back of business”, to assure food quality today.
“Or the mom and pop places aren’t as good as the chains?”Several years ago we had a franchise restaurant get shut down by the health department. My understanding that using the term “hell hole” to describe the kitchen was an understatement.
As usual, Ima misses the point. Take out ALL inspections and leave it to the “market forces”. Just take Ima along as a food tester, royalty in the middle ages could have used him/her.
^Looks good, except I’m violently allergic to bell peppers (Capsicum in New Zealand by the way!!). Which, let’s eliminate that silly ingredient list required on packaged foods, so folks can play allergy roulette with every meal?? Have some peanut oil btw.
Of course the option for people with food allergies would be to buy fresh and cook everything they eat. Never go out to a restaurant etc. WHAT A PAIN. We pay for what we get. Either we have rules, regulations and enforcement so folks can enjoy going out, or buying some pre-packaged items, or we have the roulette of something making us sick or worse.
I’d prefer information on the packaging, regulation and enforcement.
Bruce: my regards, and mutual sympathy to your spousal unit. I’m retired, so I too do almost all the cooking at home, but I started cooking in the folks restaurant at six, and was a chef by 19 at several restaurants as I travelled different parks and places. Hated cooking by that time, so shifted emphasis. Actually, joined the Army to get aviation, as I knew if I stayed a U.S. they’d make me a bloody cook.
Yep, they can be sneaky getting that bell pepper in, and of course, “paprika” is just ground reds, and they ALWAYS sprinkle that c*** on deviled eggs and potato salad, STOP THAT!!
I didn’t realize this had turned into a cooking cartoon. But yes, there are some places I don’t care to go into because I’ve heard that they got a poor rating from the State Dept. of Health.
Any road…… Start here:http://www.the-whiteboard.com/autowb582.html…and keep going forward about 3 strips. You’ll see the recipe there. I haven’t tried it as my stomach can not handle spicy foods – thanks to a stomach flu. So someone please try it out and tweet me (message me right after you follow me w/your name here & tell me you met me here) how it turns out!
