France, do we need to talk
I think we might need to talk
Once you’re finished HIDING YOUR FACE FROM GOD while you scarf down your tiny alcohol-drowned bird

Honestly the very notion of gourmet cuisine is just completely fucking weird
It’s food, just eat it, stop being so unbearably extra
This is what happens when people have too much money, their consumption patterns get so aggressively weird
So maybe it’s not weird food so much as it is weird rich people

And that bit in Life of Brian where the food vendor is wandering around at the gladiator fight hawking jaguar’s earlobes and wolf nipple chips because Romans were all rich and weird https://twitter.com/rikibeth/status/1248293367244611586?s=21">https://twitter.com/rikibeth/... https://twitter.com/rikibeth/status/1248293367244611586">https://twitter.com/rikibeth/...
In all seriousness there’s an element of conspicuous consumption to that kind of thing, like “we are so dang rich that we’re going to kill AN ENTIRE ANIMAL for like one tiny bit of it and then we’ll charge obscene amounts of money for it while throwing the rest of it away”.
Meanwhile everyone else less rich is like
Why did you throw away all the meat
Why don’t you eat the meat, what’s the matter with you
