/ck/ - Food & Cooking

Sublime. Chefs in Japan train for decades to be able to impart a bouquet of harmonious flavors to a meal. A perfect choir of tastes, with not a single one overpowering the other. Accessible to a connoisseur, but not a layman. The great genius of McDonalds - what sets it apart from all other restaurants - is that it had created a way to achieve the delicate concert of bun, vegetables, and an expertly crafted patty you could only reasonably expect from an expert Japanese cook delicately preparing ideal sushi or translucent leaves of fugu meat and perfectly cooked rice, on an industrial scale, and made it available to all. The flavors blend into each other, gently sing you their story as a choir. Nothing stands out. Everything is in its perfect place, unlike shitty parodies like five guys or burger king that overwhelm you with dissonant flavors. A pleb thinks that it is "tasty" or "succulent"; a master realizes it is offensive, and returns to deciphering the symphony of McDonalds craft meals.

Sublime.
