I'll start. It kind of bugs me that people think Prime Rib is prime-grade beef. It's really just the first ribs of the cut. I guess it could be prime grade, but that's not why it's got that name.

Bud light, Coors light, and Miller Lite all taste noticeably different.

Technically a prime rib is just a standing rib roast (bone in traditionally). No bone is more of a rolled rib roast. They can be the majority of the rib as well with 7 or do bones. The name became bastardized from standing rib roast. Prime has nothing to do with the usda ranking or the first cut, it's just a name someone added to another dish.

On another note my biggest pet peeve is people over cooking and abusing delicious pieces of pork.

Most expiration dates are myths.

Also the myth that pink pork is bad.

No... It's very easy to pick out Miller. It is pure crap.

Try it blind with all three... you won't get it right more than random odds say you will. I've done it many times with people that swear they can pick them out, they can't. Even compared to crap like MGD, Keystone, and Natty.

I hate that so many people think New Orleans restaurants are all about Cajun cooking and fried food.

That's what they all said.

Maybe you can, but most people were confident they could pick out their brand of choice and most failed.

You would think that 1 in 3 could get it right just based on odds, but it was lower than that.

That searing "seals in" juices. No, it makes a nice brown tasty crust...

Did they clean their palettes between tasting?

Once you drink beer with crap in it it's hard to taste anything else?
