'My mom thinks I’m putting turkey over my own family': Siblings squabble over vegan turkey dinner for Thanksgiving meal

This family is having a major argument over what to eat for a holiday meal ! Each family has their own unique traditions and menus for their holidays. For many people, the meat depends on the holiday: for some, ham is reserved for Easter, while cooking a big turkey is reserved for Thanksgiving and Christmas. You've got to have a lot of side dishes too: many people eat mashed potatoes, green beans, cornbread, cranberry sauce, collard greens, sweet yams, beans, or myriad other dishes. That way, e…

'Bought a head of lettuce and ate it... over the sink': 25+ Single people admit the most uncool meals they've ever concocted

For single folks, “meal” is such a strong word. Making a “meal” requires time, effort, and possibly a stovetop. When you have a partner, you tend to want to make them beautiful meals with garnishes, or hearty meals that take hours to make (since it's a labor of love). When you're a single dude , though, all bets are off. Any food is a meal if you believe in yourself. Lately, when I don't feel like cooking for my single self, I make “charcuterie dinner.” It includes strawberries, pineapple, a ti…

'It tasted like milk mixed with the ocean': 25+ Foods that people vowed to never eat again

If you ask 100 people the worst foods they've ever tried, you'll get 100 different answers. If you ask people who answered u/MomKaia's question, though, you'll encounter a lot of interesting answers—and quite a few about sea urchins . Every person has their own unique palate. Some foods people dislike for their textures, like snails or liver. Then there are foods that have a terrible taste or smell that drives people away (the durian haters were out in full force over that terribly scented frui…

'The banana cream pie cookie "tasted like a pie"': 15+ Absurd reasons people wanted their food refunded

Some customers don't have any sense at all. No one knows that better than people who work in customer service jobs , like retail work and food service. Just ask u/SpiteChickens7. They shared two stories from their gig at a popular cookie spot . On this particular shift, they had a person come in and insist on a refund. Why? Well that's because they'd bought a couple of chocolate cake cookies. Instead of eating both of them, they'd tossed one to their dog! Unsurprisingly, that chocolate cookie m…

'My 19 topping pizza': 20 Frightfully flavored pizza pies

Pizza is one of the most universally beloved foods (with the exception of these 20 pizzas, which are not loved). Sorry not sorry, there's just no saving most of these pies from their fate: the garbage can. I'm happy for the person who ordered the 19-topping pizza (first photo!). I really am. If you want to turn your pizza into a chopped salad of sorts, that should be your prerogative. Even better, this person got all of those extra toppings for free! That's the kind of order that makes the owne…

'A lady... brought in an entire rotisserie chicken to watch "Infinity War"': 30+ Unexpected movie theater snacks that viewers snuck past concession stand employees

If you've only ever snuck candy into a movie theater , you haven't lived. These people have snuck in full meals! For many of us, sneaking candy into the movie theater is a way of life. At least in my town, it almost seemed designed that way. The movie theater was in a strip mall, and just two stores down was a dollar store that had a massive candy section at the entrance. It was such a blatant candy display that I wondered if they'd partnered with the theater or something. In reality, they were…

'This store needs serious help': Entitled shoppers leave bad reviews for stores for petty reasons

Writing a bad review for a restaurant won't help much unless you just want to vent. If you want the whole world to know that you had a bad experience, you're certainly entitled to do that. In a world where many establishments specifically ask customers to review their business, it's never been easier to lodge a complaint. However, as u/Fatastic_Captain highlighted in their post to an anti-Karen subreddit, a lot of shoppers are foiled by their own mistakes. For example, one person left a one-sta…

Would a sign like this stop you from eating at a local restaurant? This person stopped in their tracks when they noticed the sign at a local breakfast chain. They snapped a photo and shared it to the good people of r/antiwork, and more than 500 people shared their thoughts in the comments section. First impressions matter, and restaurants know this.

'You said we should follow the system, and we did': Micromanager boss insists he knows better than staffers, leaving restaurant in 'chaos'

Customers only knew that their food was delayed , but this kitchen worker shared what happened behind the scenes. Professional chefs have a job like no other. There's a strict hierarchy, and a lot of shouting happening, but there's a sense of comradery as well. At many restaurants, each chef tends to one type of food or one area. When all goes smoothly, it ensures that customers get the food they ordered fast. And the longer the team of chefs works together, the better their workflow becomes. T…

'A donut that had been fried in oil used to fry fish': 25+ Foul foods that diners will never touch again

From seafood to surströmming, these people will never forget their encounters with these foul foods . Everyone seems to have at least one or two foods that they'll never ever eat . For some, this stems from getting sick soon after eating that food---even if it wasn't the one that made them ill in the first place. Other people simply took their first bite of a dish and vowed to never taste that food again . Either way, they're sharing their stories with everyone else so that we all know what to…

'I could get fired': Call center employee takes advantage the staff cafeteria to score cheap meals; jeopardizes the privilege for the rest of their coworkers then gets called out by strangers online

Enjoying life's little pleasures on the company dime is always more enjoyable than paying for them yourself. In fact, getting lost in the sauce over the freebies at work is a rite of passage for most employees. If your company has a weekly haul of snacks brought in every week, you'll likely be scarfing down your weight in honey roasted peanuts, while chugging the cold brew like it's water.

'I said her roasted chicken tasted like cardboard': Woman shocks husband by refusing to cook for him after he tries to look cool in front of his friends

This couple's relationship is on the rocks after the husband insulted his wife to seem cool. They say that the things you treasure most in your loved one, like the way they joke around or the way they put their family members first, might one day become the traits that annoy you the most. Maybe your significant other is close with their parents, and someday that may put you in the middle of all their disputes. This husband clearly has a jokey sense of humor that his wife probably loved when the…
