Controversial Food Opinions - The Béchamel Test

I have had delicious burgers and steaks but it is probably 3-5% of the ones I have had in my life. Most are pretty bleh.

I think I just got irrationally angry at the amount of bad burgers I have had in my life.

I feel like most of the time i know when I'm ordering a good burger.

If I order a mediocre burger it's usually scratching a meat craving itch and I know what I'm getting (or not getting rather).

Rarely order steak out. Just so easy to do well at home, and there's always tends to be something more interesting on the menu.

Totally agreed on steak

I may have agreed with you guys re: burgers until the past weekend. I was working at an outdoor food festival and an neighboring vendor brought us over a tray of burgers. The tray sat there about 30 mins then I picked one up and... omg. Transcendence. Fresh, quality beef cooked about medium with a great smoky/bbq taste. Two slices of american melted on top. Only other ingredient was just a few wisps of sliced red onion. Not even sure there were any liquid condiments. I hadn't had a great one in a while, but a burger can best the BEST THING.

Yeah im a burger guy

A good burger is orgasmic

But i love blood and i love meat

So a combo of both those things lathered all over me and I’m golden

I love blood but most burgers are overcooked, seasonless, too huge pieces of meat. Burgers just remind me of depressed divorced dads, whack barbecues and fat-strong beardnecks.

You’re goin to the wrong places

Man nyc is shittier than i thought

I've had some amazing burgers but like I said too much of the majority are blech. Like... it's food...congrats.

The last good burger I had was during a pub quiz in Feb. It had a fried egg and blood pudding on it. The piece of meat was secondary.

Yer come to california we treat u rite

If I was in CA I would eat a burrito. Burritos are far superior to hamburgers.

Apparently there are more taco places than burrito places in california

How do u like yr burrito

love burritos but they cannot acheive a burgers juicy hot greasy cheesy umami

I had a carnitas burrito today. I always have them skimp on the rice although that makes my burrito a little soggy diapery. I get everything on it. And extra hot sauce.

Rice is so useless. Except in sushi. And I guess for sake.

a good burger is better than a good burrito
but i am a ride or die redmeat carnivore

Pork wet burrito w everything on it for me

But yeah i would probably choose a burger between the two for the most part

I can still really get into a wet burrito though

mr veg loves wet burritos
i find them horrifyingly enormous & overkill

OH man, I thought wet burritos were something that I just had to deal with, I didn't know people preferred it.

Ladies...

A man eats a wet burrito

they are the size of a newborn infant! terrifying

Wait is a wet burrito a size thing? I once ate two burritos from Burritoville on a dare. It was the last time my now spouse ever dared me to do something because neither one of us were really winners from that.

I am trying to think of something I would eat a hamburger over. Maybe a baked potato or fried rice.

wet burritos are just sauced, what are any of you on about

also isn't the baby-sized burrito a specifically bay area thing (the mission burrito)? new mexican burritos are small and basically just one ingredient throughout ("hand-held")

at our taqueria an unwrapped wet burrito is twice as wide as a wrapped burrito because they wrap em really tight & they are full of stuff

idk about authentic or nothing tho

The ones in LA/California are usually big (idk, 5 inches?), have red or green sauce, and melted cheese on top

Inside there’s usually rice, beans, meat, and sometimes lettuce/tomato/guac

The wet burritos in Vancouver, Canada are small and mild like most things in Vancouver and not common

My burrito today I had to stand up in it's wrapper/foil and needed a spoon assist.

wait what the hell is an unwrapped burrito

not wrapped in foil

ahhhh ok

Xp to yerac

5x3” maybe

U kno what

Here this is from a pretty good place to get a wet burrito in LA — tepeyac in boyle heights:

I’m on phone but that looks like the one

Other faves are Tere’s on melrose/cahuenga

And for something a little heavier El Coyote

Damn i miss LA food

I don't ever see it with sauce on top, but that size seems right. I don't think I would like the outer wrap all wet.

Tortilla yo

Get outta here w “wrap”

unwrap the diaper.

a wet burrito by definition has the sauce on top!

why would you want a burrito covered in sauce

on the outside

The covered in sauce thing seems like something a Chili's would do.

Xxxp

It’s an LA thing bro

A bunch of these things are called wet but they vary in size and sometimes they don’t add cheese on it

Look at the pics on tepeyac’s or coyote’s yelp page

I thought LA people try not to poop.

wet burritos can be good. sauce is usually a good thing wherever it is.

why would you want a burrito covered in sauce

i likeah the sauce

the sauce is good

my take on burritos: i'm all set

Extra sauce on anything is pretty terrible.

although this may be why i don't like soups or stews.

it isnt extra. It is the sauce.

wasn't there a thread about the weirdos who get extra sauce on pizza?
