Coffee

Not sure about a drink that markets itself as 'spiked'

They also made roast dinner stuffed donuts which just no please stop this.

wtf no

lol i know. Also, no breakfast sandwiches.

fast food places have to cater to local tastes which usually means better food than the US version, but not in the UK lol

i like saying “puck” we need to create more reasons to use this word

We need more revivals of A Midsummer Night's Dream dammit.

Or maybe just more hockey.

x-post Ha yes that's usually the way it works. There's a McDonald's I was reading about recently somewhere in the US now that serves weird items from other Macdonald's around the world. That's kind of neat.

I was just hopeful I'd be able to get a giant iced coffee but no. There is an Egg Slut around my office and I think that's an American breakfast sandwich place so will try that eventually.

i had a paneer quarter pounder in the deli airport it was, not good

My burr grinder just broke (like, right before I'm traveling for a month) and I blame opening this thread for that.

I would 100% try a paneer quarter pounder. I'm sorry it was bad tho.

yeah i mean worth a shot

https://www.vfamilycoffee.com/ Its not bad at all especially the dark roast.

When you get a good Columbian oh is it rich

Is a paneer quarter pounder like that Thailand Burger King real cheeseburger that’s just 20 slices of cheese?

it was a paneer patty, a dry thin paneer patty

never tried thai burger king, i did get a weird spam with rice cake bun quasi burger from 7/11

20 slices of cheese in a trenchcoat

Not quite what I thought 'roast dinner donut' was gonna be but still bizarro

The collaboration you didn’t know you needed this Festive season… DUNKIN’ X Bisto! A combination of two powerhouses in the world of food bring you a festive special that’s too delicious (and unique) to miss.

Presenting a hand finished donut topped with sage & onion stuffing, lashings of Bisto gravy and filled with a delicious apple sauce. DUNKIN’ UK’s new “Aah! DUNKIN’” is a delightful fusion of sweet and savoury, classic and modern, crunchy and smooth. It’s the Bisto of both worlds.

They only made 100 and in one store only. Sales = Data Not Found.

“hand finished donut” hmmm

DUNKIN’ UK’s new “Aah! DUNKIN’”

wtf

when i went to japan mcdonalds had fries with like a chocolate vanilla sauce drizzled across it, it was p delicious

that does look good

i want it to be hoisin and mayo

i had eggnog in my coffee this morning

It’s the Bisto of both worlds.

Uh what?

I wonder what a full patty of beef would taste like with chocolate

xp Bisto is a brand of gravy powder here. You mix the powder (or granules, I guess) with juices from the roast meat.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bisto

That's what my googling revealed, and I thought, That can't possibly be right.

Oh it’s delicious tbh, or at least the powder is. Think granules are when you don’t use it with meat juices.

I get that, but on a donut?

I thought it was a misspelling of "Bistro."

Sounds like a limited edition gimmick product ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

*ahem* A hand finished limited edition gimmick product.

G is correct. Bisto is very good for instant gravy but it has no business ever being anywhere near a donut gimmick or otherwise.

The choc sauce/fries thing reminds me of how people dip the fries in the shakes at Wendy's. Isn't that a thing? I'd try that too.

Yeah, def a thing. Personally never done that, but know quite a few people that are regular Wendy's frosty fry dippers.

we have potato donuts in maine I guess similar

today as an experiment i recycled a whole boxful of grounds, to try and get a second cups-worth from them

why would you do this to yourself? it's like smoking a refry you found in an ash tray. I think grounds make pretty good compost/fertilizer

Yeah mine go in the compost.

I’d sooner just drink cheap coffee than reuse grinds.

the two cups i had today were fine so

"fine" gtfo this thread heathen

hey now this thread is a safe space. for those who are right about coffee and also, for those who are wrong about it

IS it tho

jk

Luv 2 eat my own shit as an experiment to get another portion if dinner out of it

Many xposts re: reusing coffee grounds

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39g6utADRzs

we knew this as "submarine coffee"

dump the grounds beneath a rose bush imho

Brewing coffee is an extraction process. You can’t extract twice.

but netflix already released Extraction 2!

Anyone have a recommendation for a good thermal carafe? The one we have (Thermos branded) has been losing its heat retention, for some reason, but when I researched replacements all the recommended ones (Fellow, Hario) seemed way too small, with capacities around 600mL. We usually drink about four cups a day, total, so I was thinking something that could handle closer to a liter in capacity.
