This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Jeez. I knew restaurant mashed potatoes used a lot of butter, but that's pretty nuts if true.

Restaurant food tastes good because we make it the unhealthy way, and we have commercial grade burners. To quote Beavis and/ or Butthead: "FIRE! hu hu YEAH! FIRE!"

That's why high end star restaurants serve smaller portions. 1) cuz it's usually a lot of ingredients but also 2) there's a psychological aspect where you appreciate the food more because there's less of it.
