@Tez IT’S GOOD, OKAY.

Tillamook salted, sprinkled gently and bright like a briefly passing sunshower.

@Tez This is why I have trust issues.

hot dogs are sandwiches

Just wanted to toss this in here after discussing with a co-worker.

Jelly-filled doughnuts are calzones.

You’re welcome.

Meg

@Testament ok but what is a cheese danish

Testament

@Meg Okay, so, here me out.

If a bread bowl is considered a quiche and a cheese danish is cream cheese filling surrounded on all sides except the top, then…

I’d say it’s a quiche.

As a sometimes maths nerd, I look at Nachos on that list and see a tesseract. 4th dimensional food for the win?

Testament

@Jennkryst I honestly fail to see the difference between salads and nachos according to the Cuberule.

All I know is that I’m hungry now.

Jennkryst

@Testament It looks like it’s meant to be a calzone contained within a salad.

Meg

@Jennkryst i’d definitely disagree with calzone in a salad! if anything, toast in a salad. because the starch is on the bottom.

Jennkryst

@Meg I mean, the picture has a fully opaque cube (calzone), contained within a larger transparent cube (salad).

Meg

@Jennkryst yeah, but the depiction is wrong by their own definition. See: muffins are toast.

Nachos should be depicted as one side (toast), contained within larger transparent cube (salad).

Unless it is truly a calzone, which seems like a separate category??? raviolis, for example, would be calzone in salad.

Testament

@Meg If it was calzone, wouldn’t it need to be indicated via some kind of top layer? Like a whole pie is a calzone, but a piece is considered toast.

Meg

@Testament idk what you mean.

We’re referring to the site you linked. If you go down to the depiction of ‘nacho’ and examples of nachoes.

the depiction of is a small calzone, in a salad depiction.

but the examples they list of nachoes, including nachoes themselves, i would argue are ‘toast’ based on the website’s definition.

@Meg LOGS OR GTFO

Testament

@Meg I read that wrong, I thought you were implying nachos were calzones. My bad.

Meg

@Snackness oh ok, here:

clearly, the website is wrong so the whole thing must be thrown away.

they went against their own definitions.

and i brought the logs/receipts.

Snackness

@Meg I am satisfied, and also feel a little bit bad that you actually put in the work for that.

Meg

@Snackness i was sitting in a meeting as my coworker sets up a db connection
