- inactive, on 06/15/2009, -11/+611. FT: ***** Off.
2. Rich people pretending to be recession hit: ***** off.
3. "Top" chefs and their pretensions: ***** Off.
4. Carrots are not humble, they rock the ***** out.
Just ***** look at them, they're bright orange and like an erect penis. That's hardcore.
Also Power User with a 42% popular ratio: ***** off and take the FT's money with you. - Misinformant, on 06/15/2009, -3/+26Anyone willing to pay hundreds of dollars for a thumb-sized serving of fish eggs on a cracker deserves to have their money taken from them for being criminally stupid.
- inactive, on 06/15/2009, -4/+17I love raw carrots, but cooked carrots are revolting.
- MargotCross, on 06/14/2009, -1/+13recession-appropriate food is on the rise.
- mikemehak, on 06/15/2009, -0/+11not being affect by the recession is comforting. Profiting off the recession is even better.
But reading articles like this make me smile from ear to ear. God I hate carrots. - newagenda, on 06/15/2009, -3/+14Yeah! Keep going! More! What else is *****??? TELL US!!
- inactive, on 06/15/2009, -0/+9mmm another's butt mangoes....
- ZeroCubed, on 06/15/2009, -1/+8And yet, they'll say that the carrots came from an exclusive local farmer and totally organic, or rare variation of veggie, and set artistically on a plate - so the meal price will stay the same. I'll pay the $50 for the best lobster they've got - not for some carrots.
- foofightrs777, on 06/15/2009, -2/+9You do realize that you are eating a giant delicious sea cockroach, right?
- commentposted, on 06/15/2009, -1/+7YOUR OPINION IS WRONG!! BURIED!
- HerrSchnuff, on 06/15/2009, -0/+5... with a price massively inflated through tastyness.
fixed - inactive, on 06/15/2009, -1/+6I always eat pot noodles before"hand".
- apzdsx, on 06/15/2009, -2/+7You have a weird penis.
- inactive, on 06/15/2009, -1/+6Actually the Financial Times is an excellent newspaper and essential if you want a decent grade when studying an economics related degree. Apart from it being succesful, why do you hate it?
- ripple123, on 06/15/2009, -0/+5and orange too. prolly from eating cheetos then masturbating.
- lolmax, on 06/15/2009, -0/+4Criminally stupid rich people: the best market demographic ever
- rsmith32, on 06/15/2009, -0/+4excuse me while I go snort some caviar through a tiger's penis
- inactive, on 06/15/2009, -1/+5black caviar is sooooo good. of course, if you don't want it, you can give it to me and i'll give you my carrots.
- leonidas333, on 06/15/2009, -1/+4I eat carrots like a *****.
This one time I hate so many people thought I had a disease. I turned bright orangish and my work mates were like 'did you get a fake tan you poof?' but nah, it was just the amount of carrots I was eating. same thing happens when I ate another but mangoes for a 2 months. - covertbadger, on 06/15/2009, -1/+4Not only that, but food which a hundred years ago was considered common and unglamorous food. The lobster is a perfect example of a food with a price massively inflated through trendiness.
- lolmax, on 06/15/2009, -0/+3***** your stupid face.
- feliks2, on 06/15/2009, -0/+2Have you people really never had caviar? So ***** delicious.
- newman8r, on 06/15/2009, -1/+3I ***** love caviar
- spiralspirit, on 06/15/2009, -0/+2roasting fancy lettuce and serving it like steak is not worth $100 - sorry. Its not related to recession since what normal person can afford a $100 steak, let alone a $100 piece of lettuce roasted like a steak.
- inactive, on 06/15/2009, -0/+2I thought carrots were the new bombs?
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/8099561.stm - ryanonfire, on 06/15/2009, -0/+2http://www.jonco48.com/blog/carrot.jpg
- commentposted, on 06/15/2009, -0/+2I'm sorry, but I don't see the connection between eating carrots vigorously and having sexual relations with a mother.
- crossmr, on 06/15/2009, -1/+3I remember something that was said around the time all those "rainbow parties" teens were having was discussed. The new fad was actually only be practiced by a potential 0.5-1% of teens while the media made it seem like every house but yours was a hot bed of illicit underage sex. Any time I see some new trend like this which is apparently "every where" I attribute the same stat to it.
- TechnoRabbit, on 06/15/2009, -0/+2That was ***** awesome. Made my day.
- inactive, on 06/15/2009, -0/+1In a time when most people would consider you an ***** for eating caviar, it's not surprising that a few chefs are trying to change their image.
- twilightzone, on 06/15/2009, -1/+2So are french fries.
- Goombellaofgoom, on 06/15/2009, -0/+1I like them both ways...
- Goombellaofgoom, on 06/15/2009, -0/+1Once upon a time, caviar was a poor peoples' food too. It was eaten by people who couldn't afford to buy actual fish, and fishermen who couldn't afford to loose money by eating their catch.
- inactive, on 06/15/2009, -2/+3you'd know stephen.
- inactive, on 07/14/2009, -0/+1I like caviar, but not with carrots in them... Looks like an oriental concoction of sorts.
- absurdist, on 06/15/2009, -0/+1"This combination of compelling ingredients, cooking skill and new ideas is what makes his $125 (£75) tasting menu, comprised mostly of vegetables, utterly captivating and well worth the price."
$125 for a "tasting menu, comprised mostly of vegetables" stopped qualifying as inexpensive long ago. It's reminiscent of Nouvelle Cuisine - fifty cents worth of ingredients dressed up and served for $100. All it really demonstrates is that there are far too many nouveau riche. - Serume, on 06/15/2009, -0/+1i wondered what the hell could be so offensive or off color to get dugg this far down on a story about carrots...then i clicked "show" and totally understood
- undervalued, on 06/18/2009, -0/+1Thats what rich people eat, the rubbish parts of the food.
- inactive, on 07/14/2009, -0/+1Just like corn? Too bad, "carrots" are not as speculative as "rice", "corn" and "oil"... http://www.wysong.net/ Carrots do best as dog foods.
hmmmpph! - sleestakslayer, on 06/15/2009, -0/+1When I read this, it made me think of a strange trend here in Columbus where restaurants serve overpriced comfort food and home cooking. When I go out to eat, I don't want to spend $12 on meatloaf and mashed potatoes.
- Elliuotatar, on 06/15/2009, -1/+1I wasn't logged in when I read his comment, so I thought he said "I eat carrots like a bitch."
- makkaveli19, on 06/15/2009, -3/+3+1 for angry rant.
- quaxon, on 06/15/2009, -2/+2this just means the price of carrots is gonna skyrocket as soon as it catches on.
- inactive, on 06/15/2009, -0/+0You can actually get vitamin A poisoning from eating too many carrots. Does damage to the liver
- Mike17102, on 06/15/2009, -1/+1Carrots are not food, carrots are what food eats.
- MikaStar, on 06/15/2009, -1/+1I bet they'll still charge large amounts of money, I mean if they can get 50, 60 bucks for some eggs taken from a gutted fish, then I'm sure they can get that for some carrots. People are idiots.
- slashdotordigg, on 06/15/2009, -1/+1FREE SAMPLES OR IT DID NOT HAPPEN
- grimacebrown, on 06/15/2009, -1/+1FTA: "Jeremy Fox, who trained with Kinch, went on to become chef at Ubuntu in Napa Valley..."
Nice... - newman8r, on 06/15/2009, -2/+1I wonder what rev. wright would have to say about all of this
