My answer was always “whatever I don’t have to make myself”

“what’s your specialty?”
Hate and vitriol

This is a magical phrase that instantly makes you forget everything you’ve ever made.

Pizza, and it’s true.
I fucking love pizza, man. Not my fault it’s relatively easy to make at home.

Mayonnaise.
On a spoon.
With a grape, if I’m feeling fancy.

I just say “what do you mean, ‘like’?,” as though this is an alien concept to me. Because it kind of is.
I like eating a lot of the stuff I can make, I just don’t want to buy it, prep it, make it, clean up, and do dishes.
The more I do this stuff, the more I realize that labor is an ingredient just like everything else in a recipe, and it tastes better when you get it from someone else instead of having to do it yourself.

I always cook at home on my days off. Idk at home it feels different and full of love for my family

When I was on the dating apps, this would get asked during every single new conversation. I understand, it’s a conversation starter, but holy shit it got very tiring explaining that I eat leftovers or cereal and I don’t want to cook ever on my days off

As someone who likes cooking at home a lot as well: Yes, let me quickly pick between a dozen dishes I’ve really liked making in the past… I don’t have one favorite dish to make. I like the process as a whole. From simply frying an egg to roasting pangasius fillet wrapped in proscuitto in the oven, to doing casual catering for 30 people as a favor to a friend.

Nothing infuriates me more than this. (Except for maybe when people mispronounce bagel)

I’m a chef with 30 years of career. My name is not a joke, it’s my diet.

Well you see
I get off work and am halfway through a bottle of rum before I even take my shoes off
I throw a fistful of dinonuggets IN THE MICROWAVE ON A PIECE OF JUNKMAIL because I’m not doing the fucking dishes
I punch the microwave and let fate decide the cooked-ness of the nuggets
I grab the first condiment out of the fridge to eat with them while I struggle to undress myself, find a spot in front of the TV and struggle to masturbate to the weather lady on TV before I pass out and go back to work

Steak. Big meat. Big giant chunk of meat. The whole pig. Large piece of animal carcass. Ribeye, good fat. Carnitas, good fat.

Same energy as, “Oh you’re a comedian? Tell us a joke!”

I liked in the other thread people were telling us to get over it and they wish people took an interest. Maybe (definitely) I’m a monster, but nothing causes me to internally roll my eyes faster than this question

My cousin is a chef and he always says he’s making cereal if we leave it up to him.
He actually does love cereal. I saw him eat a whole box of Total one time.

Thanks I needed that

Oh, baked pastries. The fact that I worked on a bakery that stuck me to cakes made me miserable. 🙁

I HATE that question! That, or asking what my specialty is.
My brain just leaves my head like with Homer Simpson.

Trick question! The answer is cereal unless I’m bringing home one of the servers.
