But to argue that fresh food is a societal meme that shifts over time is wrong. The closer something comes to being spoiled, the worse it tastes. That's just common sense.
Dry aged beef literally rots for up to 73 days before being cooked. So much for common sense.

So all in all, you are sick of the people of Louisiana attacking others for talking down on NOLA
i'm not "sick" of anything. i like to point out the biases when they emerge. discussions about nola have them out in force
quote:
And you're tired of Louisiana folk on NOLA'a food dick.
no. i'm showing how the perception bias of group think can affect judgments
quote:
So you're biased.
nope. why do y'all think i have to give a shite to give an honest analysis or discussion?
i'd be saying the same shite if this thread were about a big city that i've never been to. if tacomadroppings had a discussion about seattle, i could make the same points (b/c the same arguments would naturally emerge)

Is this where we stand?
no. you're attributing a personal stake in this discussion that doesn't exist

I love NOLA discussions, but they're nearly impossible to have on this site. They usually just devolve, and I admittedly participate in some trolling in them after a certain point.
Pretty much every discussion on this site devolves

i'm no expert on defining fine dining, and defining it really doesn't even matter in this discussion, but at least i attempted it
the other concepts are crucial to the concepts of the other side, but it's basically just ignored
say what you will about my attempt, but at least there was an attempt

I'm from New Orleans. I live in Baton Rouge. NO food is substantially better than BR food. There is no perception bias. You've been on this now for 30 pages. Someone take out your battery already

Tip one. Don't get into a food discussion with a chef. A lot of food technically rots or degrades as part of it's process, before it is consumed.

again. preserved foods were once seen as opulent and valued higher in society, and were perceived as being better than fresh food
Preserved food are not the same as they have always been. Sure, preserved food can be just as good. But when you talk about frozen pizza, it's a little different. It's not like Totino's pizza is fresh product that just happened to be preserved. It's the cheapest shite they could put together in order to get the price down as far as they can. The same can be said with fast food.
quote:
fresh food was for poor people who couldn't afford the higher class of (preserved) food
Yes. But this is a completely different thing. Again, frozen food now compared to frozen food 100 years ago is different.quote:
what do you mean?
I meant can you provide another example that is a little more relevant. Baby food is not relevant in this discussion.

I love this. Bourdain has stated pubicly that he is not really the biggest fan of cajun and creole cuisines.

Because your basic assumption is that no one but you can be right about anything. So, even in the face of overwhelming evidence (in the form of all the opinions you're trying to shite on) that NOLA is a unique and great food city, probably in the top 3 or 5 in the country, you still think it's wrong because you didn't say it.

Speaking of food, it's dinner time. I'll swing back shortly.

As yes to whoever said it before the only people who would argue against this are the ones who are "emotional," the ones who are bothered that the city is loved by others and that no one gives two fricks about their shite hole of an existence. Yes New Orleans has plenty of faults so does every major city but at least it's a relevant city in the United States and not a blip on the map that no one would notice if it were gone.
The po boys are better than anyone else's fwiw

NOLA food is no better than Bismark, ND's. That is what I've learned from this thread
