    Was a great meal overall just thought this was a personal record for scallion centipedes

    I worked at a pizza chain once and walked past the prep guy sharpening a knife on the concrete curb outside on the way in. I’d put him on your list of POI.

    I laughed so hard I actually farted and snorted.

    I don’t even work in a kitchen right now, but it was probably me.

    Me. I have no excuse. I was rushing. Brand new knife too. Cuts paper like it’s nothing. Sorry chef.

    I ordered a Bahn mi yesterday and it just had whole sandwich length green onions running through it. You don’t really bite through it when you’re eating the thing so they just drag out covered with bits of pate and mayonnaise.

    Hahahahaha the only time I had ever cut myself during prep was when I had a stupid dull knife and tried to angerly power through.
    The scallions looked just like this. Bye bye finger tip.

    Totally my bad for being lazy and angry and losing my form…
    Lesson learned.

    The first chance was cutting it better, the second was when they put it in a cambro and didn’t lazily pull it apart.

    I botched a knife sharpening and cut green onions like this for 8 months before I redid it. Shit sucks

    My bad! That onion was a tough green hulk!

    My favorite was the cooks that couldn’t figure out the dark magic that was a bias cut so cut green onions in 1in straight cut chunks. But did they cut enough to just get through service because they knew they were cutting incorrectly? Nooooo!! They would cut over half of the fucking 2lb bag!

    My bad Chef Wyatt needs to be sharpened again! (My favorite knife marked by a cook that hasn’t worked at my job for 2 years before my hire) Note: Wyatt is half the size of other knives but varies wildly between sharpenings.

    Bulletproof scallion right there. I swear my knife is sharp.

    Saw this and flinched, expecting my first boss to smack me in the back of the head.
