I didn't expect Wendy's to give me such hope today.

That generic chocolate pudding they had was a special childhood food I miss. Was it good? I do not know.

It was incredible.
My dad taught me to dip the pineapple slices in it. Shit tasted exactly like a banana split. Don't ask me how.

I hate how nostalgia fags pretend that this shit was good. It was fucking trash and you know it. You only have good memories about it because you were spending time with your family back when you were young, safe, happy, and weren't yet a jaded fuck.

You're what I like to call the vigilante parrot deboonker. People like you show up in every fucking thread to dismiss things as nostalgia or subliminal memory or whatever new concept you have a vague grasp of that week. It's getting old, and no one thinks you're smart for saying it.

I don't remember this, but I do remember the taco salad being a receptacle for chili and tortilla chips with only a few pesky strands of lettuce to deal with. Now with this coof, I wonder if the humble buffet will ever come back? Or Ponderosa that's been going since I was a kid finally had to shutter their doors.

There was a long stretch of time where restaurants focused on large quantities for cheap and would serve the most disgusting shit you could think of to people who were raised by folks who trudged through the great depression so they simply didn't give a fuck and just marveled at the deals. I'd definitely argue that gen x and onward have forced restaurants to actually focus on quality, which is why you're seeing the chains steadily go belly up, same with stupid ass buffets

To be fair, the gen x and up crowd has shifted the balance a but too far to the other side. Tiny little burgers with artisan buns and egg on top, 5 or 6 sweet potatoes fries - thanks that will be 20 bucks. And craft "prohibition" style cocktails that cost 15 bucks. I think this is starting to make me appreciate the cheap buffets and local dive bars more...there's a point in my book where higher quality food isn't worth laying for.

I miss when fast food joints didn’t try to pretend they were anything but cheap fast rubbish. Sure, McDonalds was always processed meat-flavoured slurry. But at least when you walked into the place and saw the little girl behind the counter in carnival clothes and the walls painted in cartoon characters at least you knew what you were gonna get. Now everything has the exact same generic minimalist iPod aesthetic and it’s boring as shit. I wish Taco Bell still tried to look like an old Spanish Mission

More of a market than before, but at least among people I know and visit, urban and rural, that kind of thing is still niche to gastropubs and intentionally athmospheric dining. Well, except for the 20 buck things, but that's a separate thing.
>And craft "prohibition" style cocktails that cost 15 bucks.
True, but throw in a lot of alcohol-related niches into there as well. I've seen fucking vodka shot samplers before, and they priced it like samplers of wine.

I was a teenager back then and would hit up the salad bar after smoking a bunch of weed.
