This is at a restaurant. Someone paid money for cheese and raw onion on bread. What are we doing here?

[–] NoForwardslashS@sopuli.xyz 76 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Probably drinking first and eating secondarily

There’s not enough booze in the world to make me rawdog an onion like this.

Raw onion on a deli sandwich is great, but maybe not quite so much...

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Vidalia Onion is good this thick, but usually only in a burger. It’s a very sweet variety, though the sweetness and flavor have declined as it’s become more available I feel. At least where I buy them.

Funny. We Iranians almost always eat raw onions alongside food, but everyone in the west seems to hate them unless it's dripping with 6 liters of frying oil

You say that now but that sounds exactly like every fucker I've ever heard with a hangover saying "Jaysus, Mary and Joseph and all his carpenter friends I'm never touching a pint again."

As my father used to say "hunger is good sauce".

Four pints in and no dinner I'd gobble that down. GOBBLE IT. Best sandwich I've ever had at that point I'd wager.

Pubs aren't restaurants. If your pub has menus on the table after 7pm it's not a pub. It might be a bar, depends how much they're persuading people a pint of shite lager should cost.

Looks drier than Ben Shaprio's wife. Jesus Christ, man... Couldn't you lube it up with some condiments or something? This criminal act you call a sandwich should come with a choking hazard label.

I'm absolutely going to steal and search for a reason to use that first line

The onion is the lube, the onion is life.

My life is somewhat like the cheese section of a European supermarket. One half is moldy and the other half is not affordable for me.

Even if you did though you could spice this up cut up the onions fry them up a little bit melt that cheese and that bread on a pan. boom! you got a nice grilled cheese with some grilled onions

[–] OrgunDonor@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Raw onion is better than fried onion(I may be alone in this though). I do agree with melting the cheese, or just add more too it. This is a travesty.

Europe: "terrorized and colonized the world to get spices" Also Europe: "serves up absolute disgusting food like this"

Just the good people of the Blur Boar Pub doing god's work, steadily battling shrinkflation one cob at a time. https://www.leicestermercury.co.uk/news/leicester-news/leicester-pub-goes-viral-gargantuan-9596401

"A Leicester city centre pub has gone viral online on account of its humongous cheese and onion cobs. The manager of The Blue Boar pub on Millstone Lane, Jo Kearley, said they get comments “every single day” on their gargantuan size, but admits that they can’t now start making them smaller. She said: “We don’t want to be labelled with the whole ‘shrinkflation’ thing. Our sort-of saying is that we aren’t ‘just a cob shop’, we also sell beer.”

My ancestors trail recipes are more varied than this, and half of them are just normal foods with chili poured over it. Why are you like this England actual cavemen had more varried foods, at least chop up the onion a bit more and grill the whole thing.

No one was putting that much cheese on a ploughman's during the war.

[–] Phoenicianpirate@lemm.ee 9 points 10 months ago

I dunno... that looks like a nice simple sandwich.

[–] Skua@kbin.earth 9 points 10 months ago

I absolutely love a good ploughman's and the lack of effort in this one feels like a personal insult towards me
