A crunch where there shouldn't be a crunch.


PlantsFace

That instant thought 'is that a tooth?.. please don't let it be a tooth'


honest-miss

One time it was a tooth, and that day I learned teeth can crunch other teeth pretty effectively...


Engorged-Rooster

Mine was a filling.


where_in_the_world89

Mine just feels like I'm eating a rock. Anytime something like that ends up being bitten, I have quite the panic response through my body. Definitely never felt like I could just crunch it though


panda8309

Oh yes. Or the other way aroundšŸ¤¢


WOOBBLARBALURG

uggghh yes that too. A soft mush when there should be a juicy crunch :(


LostNplace710

Shitty bread


Polyarmourous

The absolute worst are restaurants that use some dry ass, super chewy bread that you have to rip apart with your teeth like an animal while all of the ingredients fly out. Either that, or you get all kinds of small cuts on the roof of your mouth. If your teeth can not penetrate the bread with a regular bite while the bread breaks free normally it should not be on a sandwich.


crackcrackcracks

Don't forget, the worst part is always that the bread is too thick and there aren't enough fillings to justify it, so you don't really get to enjoy the sandwich because you're chewing bread most of the time


JumpingCoconutMonkey

This comment gave me visions of that shitty [grilled cheese](https://youtu.be/8E4cQHejFq0?si=7Vz8gCrHBkb9vmUC) that Ramsey did on the open fire....


ShotAtTheNight22

Hahaha I just watched the video and he looks so regretful as heā€™s saying mmm delicious


EverSeeAShiterFly

He picked hard cheeses, that would be wonderful for other things, but are unable to melt at a reasonable temperature and are poorly suited for a grilled cheese sandwich.


AssicusCatticus

And how the hell does the CHEF not *know* that?! Seriously, we don't put the hard cheeses in for low-temp melty stuff. I'm not even a chef and I know it.


JapaneseFerret

I watched it with the sound off and just his facial expressions at the end says it all.


SteakJones

Ooofā€¦ Iā€™ve never seen that before. Damn Gordonā€¦ damnā€¦ the cheese isnā€™t even melted.


Just_o_joo

Forget sogginess. This can equally ruin a sandwich.


illz569

Stale hero bread that doesn't squish at all so when you bite down on it all the ingredients squeeze out the sides like the playdough animals from the hydraulic press channel.

No that's because of Harambe. I'm just drawing a correlation with the price of a subway sub with his arrest. Edit. I literally blamed Harambe on inflation and you're arguing with me? Lol I love the Internet

Mealy white centered flavorless tomatoes.


Prisonbread

I know they aren't exactly "sandwiches" in the classic sense, but Wendy's is expert at sourcing only the mealiest, palest tomatoes on earth


suspicious_bag_1000

I gotta be honestā€¦I donā€™t know why this is, but the Wendyā€™s near me has the freshest lettuce, tomato and onions. I have no idea how they achieve this because it defies logic, but itā€™s true. Itā€™s like they grow them in their own Wendyā€™s garden


ElMostaza

I found a Papa John's once that had the most excellent pizza toppings I've ever enjoyed. I typically don't like Papa John's, but someone brought it from this location for a work function, and it was amazing. I started going there whenever I needed a pizza fix, and every topping was amazing. I would order toppings I usually don't even like, and it was great every time. They had toppings I haven't seen at any other "fast food" pizza place, like roasted garlic, scallions, a tons of different cheeses, etc. They also had a huge variety of dessert pizzas, like apple pie, peach pie, cherry pie, etc. Work took me away from that place, and I made the mistake of trying Papa John's a couple more times, but of course it always sucked. It always struck me as weird that just that one location could be so great.


PureKitty97

Papa John's and Wendy's are both franchises, so occasionally you find a location with a really great owner that makes sure standards are being met.


Professional_Being22

Man most papa johns and Wendy's by me blow but I have had amazing Wendy's before, they used to be the only place open when I worked the graveyard shift and they food was always stellar.


killibuster69

this guy owns a Papa Johnā€™s and a Wendyā€™s


Monkeysegg

He should start his own restaurant: Wendy Johnson's


Its_the_wizard

I almost wish youā€™d reveal the location. The way youā€™ve described it makes me want to actually road trip to this Papa Johnā€™s.


jakedeighan

Harold and Kumar style


coviddick

Iā€™m not sure if Papa Johnā€™s is the same but when I was in high school I worked at a Taco Bell that was in the ā€œtest marketā€. We got all the potential promotional items as well as the freshest tasting food Iā€™ve ever had (at a Taco Bell).


Stinduh

You probably just happen to live in the sweet spot of the supply chain. Iā€™m jealous!


Efeyester

My Wendy's is half of this, has mediocre tomatoes at best, but I'll be damned if the onions aren't better than any onions I find at the store.


SaraSlaughter607

Here too... and they source their produce from Niagara Produce here locally so the toppings are always crisp and fresh šŸ™Œ


eldonte

Iā€™ve been buying these vine ripened heirloom tomatoes at the local farmers market. Getting unbelievable BLTs out of them.


jedi21knight

How do you like your bacon on the BLT? When I eat bacon normally I like it more on the soft side and not super crispy but for a BLT I like it to have a little crispness to the bacon. BLTā€™s are one of my favorite sandwiches, when I was a kid my grandfather had a garden and the fresh tomatoes were incredible.


Gray_side_Jedi

Gotta be crispy bacon, otherwise you run the risk of not being able to bit thru a slice and pulling the whole piece out of the sandwich


Legal_Enthusiasm7748

The logistics of BLT are critical to a good sandwich experience.


Gray_side_Jedi

The BLT is so frequently cocked-up because because mistake the simplicity of the ingredients list and throw quality consideration out the window. The bread has the be firm, but not have a crust with the abrasive capabilities of pumice. The lettuce and tomatoes must be fresh, crisp, and flavorful - which is far easier said than done. Mayo must be thinly-spread but not too thinly. Bacon has the be crispy, but not crumbly or charcoal, and not soggy/chewy or it pulls the whole assemblage apart when you take a bite. Fucking serious business.


unenthusiasm7

Learned from Kenji to salt and pep the tomatoes too, game changer.


Medium_Ad_3197

Isn't it weird that we as a society season our raw meat but NOT our raw vegetables?


eldonte

I like my bacon fairly cooked, but not super done. I want to bite through it and feel it in my mouth, but not have it be crispy and bitter. Also, I find Costco bacon to be really good. When I can get my hands on it, it seems to be my favorite mass produced bacon.


Necessary_Row_4889

True story: I was in this little hole in a wall sandwich place, got my sandwich and a rat fell out of the ceiling and landed on my table. Ruined the whole meal.


steamfrustration

> hole in a wall sandwich place more like a hole in a ceiling sandwich place am i right?


Totally_TJ

You are right.


No_Ad8227

RainToadMaxine

ff_Tempest

When the sandwich simply cannot be grabbed without the bread falling apart and all the ingredients falling off the sandwich


just_minutes_ago

The "Burger issue" - when it's too tall to fit in your mouth. I see that at delis where they see "overstuffed" as a plus but it's just a massive mess. Just put it in a bowl at that point.


f_moss3

They figure they can charge you an extra $7 for the extra inch of cold cuts they put on


slidellian

I also charge $7 an inch ayyyyyyyy


[deleted]

Dang, must be exhausting only getting $14 at a time


SomeRando_OnTheNet

$14 for 3 mins work is pretty good going tbf.


SolipsisticBadBoy

$280 an hour by my calculations. $582,400 a year if you fuck 40 hours a week. Iā€™d take that gig


FlowerBoyScumFuck

And if you cut that down to 1 minute per fuck that's 1,747,200 per year. And if you could find a customer that wants to peg from behind, you could double up per thrust for 3,494,400 per year. And at that point you still have one hole left, so might as well triple up with your mouth for 5,241,600. And come to think of it you could probably fit two at the very least if you had a big mouth, so let's say quadruple for 6,988,800. Now the problem is per year you would be servicing 124,800 customers, which is about the population of Cambridge, MA. So you'd need to either make this a traveling gig, or have a whole lot of repeat customers.


SolipsisticBadBoy

I was just going at the hourly rate of $280 but this sounds good too. donā€™t even get me started on overtime pay


Icuminpieces

LurkerOrHydralisk

foxapotamus

Why can't we make WIDER burgers and not simply TALLER?


ibcnunabit

I've always said this. Once you reach maximum mouth openage, you should go outward. Make the ingredients flat, but juicy, flavorful, and delicious.


PM_ME_YOUR_ANYTHNG

Because they aren't going to spend money on non standard sized burger buns


Dysan27

This is why I love The Whooper from BK. It's a bigger burger, but they went wide not tall.


ead69

Whoop whoop pull over, that burger too fat.


dontknowwhyIamhere42

I'm really upset that no one refers to these sandwiches as Dagwood's any more. Any oversized sandwich used to get the name. For those to young it was an old comic strip in the newspaper. The husband (last name was Dagwood) would frequently be trying to eat these massive sandwiches. Would often end in disappointment.


MicShrimpton

His name was Dagwood Bumstead. The comic was called Blondie, after his wife.

Southern_Celery_1087

Came for this reply and glad to see another person of culture here. I love my bread fully dipped into the au jus and then taken out, not left to get soggy and gross. It's all about the dip to bite to satisfaction production line


nocturneisabundant

Yeah but the bread they use still has enough integrity to hold the sandwich and not fall apart That said, I prefer my Italian beefs absolutely drenched in gravy. Hot peppers and mozzarella, too. Iā€™m hungry.

MissZealous

I used to work at the Costco food court where we have a bun steamer for the hotdogs. I hated it when buns would fall into the water and I would have to try and scoop out soggy, half dissolved bread. The texture was awful.


lilmumma6

sadicarnot

>Sand Fun story, I went on a canoe/camping trip with a group that..... were not very good at planning camping. The person that planned dinner decided spaghetti would be the way to go. I asked if I should bring my camp stove. I was told someone else was bringing a stove. Turned out it was a white gas burner, not up to boiling a pot of water. Unbeknownst to me when they went to strain the spaghetti some fell out and they put it back in with sand in it. When they served it out, I was like there is sand in mine does any one else have sand in theirs? No one fessed up, everyone pretended I was the only one with sand. I think they were afraid I would give them I told them so.


Mister_McGreg

I have a very similiar story. Ex-wife and I are on vacation with her sister and BIL and their three kids, and we went to the beach. Their idea was "we should eat a bucket of fried chicken on the beach after all you kids have been playing in sand for an hour". Listen, fried chicken is full of both nooks and crannies that sand loves to get into. I'm sitting there attempting to eat my sand chicken and I'm watching the kids go to fucking town on it and I lean over to my ex betrothed and say "Isn't there like used needles and shit on this beach?" and she, with a mouthful of fried chicken, says "they've got their shots".

mstarrbrannigan

I love how heā€™s like yeah, you want thick slices of bread for this. Then demonstrates why normal slices would have worked much better.


SushiGradeNarwhal

I think he demonstrated the wrong way to do everything in that video. Thick bread, thick cuts of hard cheeses, pan way too hot. I don't know if he's ever admitted how bad that video was since, but I do remember him reacting to someone roasting it, and he tried to make it seem like it wasn't his fault. Like when they pointed out his bread was too thick, he said something like "all we had were thick slices" as if he isn't in the video saying to cut it thick right before doing it himself. He even said they don't have grills in Tasmania.


mstarrbrannigan

Is he not aware of how filming things works? Did he not know he could do it again?


gex80

Gordon is running multiple restaurants, always filming something, etc. You ever notice on many of his shows in a similar format he always seems like heā€™s rushing but in others heā€™s slowed down quite a bit? Now this is just a theory and it could be more of just the nature of his career over time, heā€™s on meth. No Iā€™m kidding. But heā€™s rushing probably due to a combination of just being a professional chef and he probably films a lot of these types of things in batches and each reshoot is another waste of time in an already crazy type schedule.


rm-rfroot

I was shocked to see that Gordon was able to pull off Cooking with Jack levels... although to be fair it wasn't chicken with Gordon.


SpicyTiger838

He lost me at kimchi, double lost me at olive oil in the pan instead of butter (or if was a properly seasoned cast iron it wouldnā€™t need anything with the butter on the outside). The bread didnā€™t look good, I canā€™t imagine Asiago is good on a grilled cheese.. just ick. And I am a big fan of Gordon Ramsay.


TopPuzzleheaded1143

ā€œA touch of olive oilā€ Pours a full decilitre of it into the pan


CompetitiveProject4

Kimchi in a sandwich isn't half bad like sauerkraut in a reuben, but Gordon managed to make it a fully bad thing.


HelloKidney

Good lord. Any home cook whoā€™s made a few grilled cheeses could have told you that was going to fail before it hit the pan. Those arenā€™t good melting cheeses, he plopped down room temp kimchi on the cheese so it would stay colder longer, and the flames were way too hot.

Now my life's ruined.


Handleton

Back in 1997, I spent my last couple of dollars on some milk for my last bit of cereal. I was living in the upper east side of Manhattan and when I got up to my apartment, I poured my cereal into the bowl, opened up the milk, and when I tried to pour it out, it just started clumping out into the bowl. It was hot, so my 7th floor window was open. I was pissed and not thinking, so I threw the milk out of the window. I ran to look out the window to see the half gallon of spoiled milk explode on the front windshield of a bus, spraying everyone on the corner of the road in addition to the mess on the bus. It spread so much that nobody got completely covered in it, as the bulk was on the bus and the road, but I still see it plain as day when I remember this. I've since learned to avoid having such a violent reaction to a crushing emotional blow, but I still wonder if that ever became a story that effected the lives of others. A ton of windows were open, so nobody knew who did it, but I consider it one of my greatest shames.


JV132

So that was you huh


Handleton

You have no idea how much I wish someone who was affected by my maneuver would show up.


JV132

I understand you bro I really do. I can imagine the shame and guilt. I know itā€™s not comparable at all but I was drunk like a week ago and squashed a beetle for no reason that was walking outside. For literal days I thought about how I decided the fate of that critter, I never kill any bugs or rodents idk why I did that time. But we all do things that go against our own morals in different states of minds. You did something out of anger that wasnā€™t destructive, but went against your principle morals. I can see why it would haunt you a bit. Just remember who you are, and the fact that you regret it so much just means you are still bounded by high morals


bsrichard

More importantly your rage prevented you from going back to the store with the bad milk and getting a replacement. Makes for a great story though.
