After celebrating christmas without any blood relatives for first time, I can tell you exactly why you liked doing the tree: you did it at your own pace. You weren't forced by shitton of yelling and expectations (I assume), you weren't yelled at for doing it wrong, just had a fun time with your wife
THIS, it's so much easier to do holidays with partners who give a damn about your happiness. Parents all too often use their kids without giving them any meaningful autonomy.
Can confirm, I’m not even a parent yet but for the last 5 years I have playfully annoyed my wife with my over the top Christmas/Holiday decorations. We have fun and she only helps when she wants but I bought a 3rd tree last year so you can easily guess what her next question was when she found out.
I think it just comes with becoming a parent, when I was a kid my mom never cared about any holiday, there were no decorations and we never did anything special, it didn't bother at all and I didn't understand why people cared so much. But then I had a child and everything changed, I go all out for every special occasion, it's kinda stressful and exhausting but I love it
Telling someone that they can't wear their hearing aids is no different than saying someone with bad vision can't wear their glasses!!! Or that an amputee can't wear their prosthetic!!! Unbelievable 😬
@@Richard_Nickerson It is most definitely illegal. For some reason hearing aids seemed to be fair game in a couple of these stories. When you compare that to glasses or prosthetics it shows how crazy it is! I know two people who were told to take out their hearing aids at work by management! Because airpods and the like are so popular now, they just assumed and were actually angry...until they realized they just screwed up royally! One quit on the spot,(grocery store), and did nothing. The other stayed,(bank), but went through HR and the manager was fired. Turns out it wasn't her first time crossing the line.
I was thinking the same thing lol at least that manager had a few brain cells and realized they should back down after OP asked “can I get that in writing?”
@@MamaLauren523 Especially since, in my experience, hearing aids look almost nothing like airpods. Those guys should have backed up once told they were hearing aids.
The thing about mold, what you can see is only a small part of it. It has already grown and spread across the whole strawberry, bread, or whatever else is moldy. That's why I never "just remove the moldy part".
@@erickpoorbaugh6728 I ate from a package of bread that had a moldy piece in it the other week after removing the pieces inbetween and checking for mold. I did have a messy stomach later but I'm also not great with Gluten 🤔 Maybe I should start freezing it and just make toasts.
Not just across the surface, mycelium can work it's way nice and deep! Those spots you see on the surface occur when the fungus is mature enough to reproduce.
@@lostbutfreesoul yep! Somewhere above I compared the part you can see to being kind of like fruit or flowers on a tree, but I'm this case the tree is invisible and you can only see the fruit. Weirdly, fungi are actually more closely related to animals. Barely.
I'm actually surprised OP didn't walk in to get her final paycheck and see the restaurant undergoing an extreme colonoscopy (by a spinning brain cactus, without lube) by the Heath Department... Health Departments usually take complaints of restaurants selling moldy food ACCOMPANIED BY A PICTURE OF SAID MOLDY FOOD very seriously...The Inspectors should have landed on the Restaurant the morning after OP called in the complaint...
@@evadedenbach1226 Not could have, Absolutely Did...Guaranteed... I suspect the only reason the Restaurant got away with it without getting Sued of Butt Fucked with a spinning brain cactus by the Health Department is the people that got sick didn't realize it was the Restaurant Food was the cause... It's even possible the sick people didn't know their illness was Food Poisoning due to moldy food...
Finally, someone took the "Can I get that in writing?" Question seriously! lol I think I know what chain they are talking about in the first story and they have had a LOT of problems across the board at most their restaurants in my area! Chocolate fountain gave it away lol! Good for them for not letting the manager run them over with that bus because he tried to spin it since the first complaint to make OP the one at fault... I'm super happy that they let the woman know that ALL the strawberry were that way while shifting the blame back to him! Kids love those fountains and who knows how many kids ate them not knowing what mold is or looks like... It makes me sick thinking about it since I got sick eating moldy food as a kid... (I didn't know what mold was and we had some mini donuts go bad...)
I think the only reason the Manager wised up and let the deaf person wear their hearing aids while driving was because it was the Union Steward ask the Can I get that in Writing Sir? question with a huge smile on his face... I suspect the manager actually realized he was about to get absolutely Bitch-Slapped with a MASSIVE ADA Lawsuit he could not possibly win...
1st story: as a guy with a SafeStaf certification and common knowledge, this story kills me. mold on food is a hell no and should be thrown out immediately. shame on the manager for forcing the staff to serve that. and good job op for reporting that to the health department, cause who knows what else the manager let slide. he really could have hurt MANY people if he was that careless with everything
Honestly, I'm surprised that the guy's *ss wasn't grass after the incident. I honestly expected people to enact criminal violence for potentially poisoning the kids.
Well, that's because the part you can see is actually more like...the fruit or flowers on a tree. The main body is growing through the food beneath it.
@@parmesanchease480 I didn't say it wasn't, just explained how it works. It's entirely as bad. I just thought fungi were interesting as remember odd things about them. - edit for autocorrupt error
Ugh, the story about the moldy strawberries, I would pitch an unholy fit if I found mold on my food at a restaurant. I'm allergic to mold and even though I rarely complain at restaurants unless I get an entirely wrong order, you can bet this would be one time I'd speak to management. The legendary power of "Can I have that in writing?" only this time the boss seemed to understand the implications and didn't ACTUALLY put the blatant violation of the ADA into writing.
I was a kid when Empire Strikes Back came out and Burger King had Empire Strikes Back plastic cups but we rarely went to fast food. My brother & I promised the world and after some chores our parents agreed. A few weeks ago I picked up some boxes because my parents are selling their house. In amongst the childhood treasures was that cup. All beaten up and scratched but 12-year-old-me kept it. Thanks 12-year-old-me!
So, the story actually DID take place at a Golden Corral?? What is wrong with a lot of these chain restaurants refusing to follow basic health regulations??? I'm Serv-Safe Certified and I know for a fact that any food with mold on this (with the exception of blue cheese) needs to be thrown away immediately!! That's like basic Health Regulation 101!! If anyone told me to serve moldy food I would just walk out of there immediately! No job is worth violating basic health regulations. That's like Food Service Titanic!
rSlash always starts his personal stories with, "This probably isn't that interesting," but they're always so pleasant to listen to. What a wholesome anecdote. :)
The dad in the Christmas glass story reminds me to not settle for a dude that doesn’t care. I can’t imagine having a partner that would go out of his way to surprise me with something I mentioned I wanted, especially something so small like decorations.
my hubby doesn't care for decorating because he doesn't see the point in it. last December he dug our little synthetic xmas tree and lights out of the backroom early one morning and hastily set it up to surprise me when i woke up. he was absolutely glowing upon seeing my reaction. we're approaching our 6th year together :)
If your a guy there is a limit on how nice you can be and if you are to nice the girls won't like it. People always say not to be rude but they don't tell you not to be to nice ether.
I'm surprised that the boss did that so level-headed if I would have heard that my manager forced someone to serve moldy food I would have been absolutely livid and probably screamed until I couldn't scream anymore and also turned into a military drill sergeant
I would've reached right inside and pulled out the Gordan Ramsey, called them every British insult about how stupid they are and ask them how badly they want a lawsuit involving a death in the restaurant before he gets it.
I'm allergic to most molds and especially penicillin and penicillin molds. I got super sick at olive garden last summer. I was shocked cuz I ordered what I always order shrimp scampi. After my cancer treatments 3 years ago I've had some issues and well my primary care doc was worried I had become allergic to shellfish. Nope some idiot in the kitchen was using the "good" lemons out of a box of moldy ones. We got a few free meal vouchers but seriously ? Y'all just almost killed me yet thinking I'm coming back? At least my son and his fiancée enjoyed a few nice freebies. At a different location 😉 But ugh. I worry about going out to eat all the time since then.
@@limiv5272 not sure about the other poster but I can eat brie but not any blue veined cheeses. Some salumi will take me out too. But its certain penicillin strains that get me. I try not to risk it any longer.
The holiday decor of your childhood probably felt more like a chore causing resentment. It wasnt your decision. But now you get to decide, when and where to put things. Which holidays to decorate for and not have a revolving door of decorations. Less work for more enjoyment.
i worked in a place that sounds like “smomino’s” and when opening a tub of fresh tomatoes i found it was covered in mould! store manager told me to use it, i had only told him for count, but i dumped that straight out in front of him
@@simonechalker2185 I was once looking for a job and asked my friend about a place he works in. He told me to not apply there because it's a freaking nuthouse with toxic as hell management. And he was right.
Dude. I'm allergic to fruit mold and am super careful when eating food that has any kind of fruit in it, erring on the side of caution. That restaurant could have made things VERY uncomfortable for me if I'd been there.
The moldy strawberries story reminds me of something that happened at my old job. So, there was a case of moldy cheese for the pizzas and I was the first one to notice the mold. Luckily, the manager was smart enough to not force us to serve the moldy cheese on the pizzas (it was a Little Caesars)
I don't understand managers who make up arbitrary rules like "don't wear your hearing aid while driving". Do they tell people to not wear glasses while typing on their computers? Or they're not allowed to use false teeth while eating on their break time?
*I don't want you using your prosthetic legs at work.* _Are you gonna provide me with a wheelchair, or am I expected to buy my own?_ *What?! No wheelchairs either! We don't want people to think c-words work here!* (And for the record, it doesn't rhyme with grunt, it rhymes with triple.
Old Country Buffet was my first thought too. However, Golden Corral did have a Cholocate fountain at one point. I would assume the fountain is shut down now due to Covid-19.
I know this is late, but from someone that worked at GC I’m pretty that’s what this story is from, and most likely from a corporate store. Corporate ones have an extremely bad rep, and for good reason. The one I worked at was a franchise and we thankfully took care of absolutely everything and followed health and safety to the letter. Oh, and yeah, the chocolate fountain got taken out and is still gone, from what I know of, at the one I used to work at.
I amazingly have a similar story to the deaf driver. When I worked at an overnight gas station, one of the bakery ladies was deaf as a doorknob. Sweet as can be, amazing sense of humor, great at lip reading. But nearly walked out the store into a tornado because she couldn't fucking hear it. She was on her way to start her early as balls 3am shift making donuts for the display, and got pulled over. The officer walked up to her window and apparently said "Ma'am, were you aware your muffler is too loud?" God bless this woman, she looked him dead in the eye and spoke in that way deaf-since-birth people do and said "NOH OFF-EH-SIR, I CAHN'T HEA ET." She got waved on with no further trouble, and was giggling as she described the poor man's face. Like I said, great sense of humor.
The first story is absolutely from Golden Corral. I worked at one for a year and a half and I can confirm the work environment there is super toxic. The co-workers are very nice, but I could tell that the management was up to some shady stuff, and trying to juggle poor reviews along side fewer workers. I worked over my college’s winter break and didn’t have a direct deposit, so I had to pick up my checks when they came. They ended up LOSING my paycheck and I had to run around for months trying to get it back. Eventually midway through summer I quit and they still hadn’t given me the money. I contacted the DOL, but nothing happened. Finally I bring my dad in, and the management is like “oh crap we’re screwed now…” so they gave it to me in petty cash. Moral of the story: NEVER work at a Golden Corral, not even when you’re desperate for work!
"Order Drink, Buy a glass" made RSlash sound like a robot haha. That first story was something you wouldn't be surprised that bosses would do. Anyone had to deal or seen something similar to it?
personaly i have not but a friend of mine who works in a resturant claims that when looking in the storage once he found growing mushrooms. not mold. mushrooms. like the ones you find while walking in a forest.
As a restaurant worker, I would R E A L L Y recommend everyone be very careful where they go. There’s almost always some shady stuff happening in the back around food safety, even the health department turns a blind eye. Especially if you have a good allergy, I think a lot of people with severe allergies avoid preprepped foods for this reason, but if you don’t know, a LOT of times stuff like blenders and mixing spoons are just rinsed off 🤷🏽♀️
I love how r/slash share some of his own stories. Those are the most precious treasures of stories. I love those cause I grew up listening to family history stories from my nan and learn how to appreciate those treasures
I'm a childless 27-year-old who didn't want a tree this year. My roommate, who is 31, and I did the first Christmas tree without our respective families. I liked having the tree decorated because it was our own pace.
That imo is entirely unnecessary. It doesn't even really make sense. But yeah, if they don't compensate you themselves, then you can write it off in your taxes. Taking money out of your paycheck to pay for something they require you to have as a uniform? That's definitely illegal.
I work as a delivery driver, and on my induction day I got 2 polo shirts, 2 pairs of trousers, 3 pairs of socks, jacket, fleece, waterproof jacket, hi-viz vest, and steel capped shoes, at no cost. I can't imagine being made to pay for your own uniform, well not unless you're still at school.
Yeah, after working for a GC in a rather large city around 2012, I can definitely confirm that there are some rather unsavory and disgusting practices in place behind the scenes. I literally have never wanted to eat at one again since leaving that job (dish washer/some prep cook duties). Now, I can't say for certain that all locations operate the same way, but there does seem to be a trend for sure based on other rumors I've heard in other places since.
I find it shocking how chain restaurants would ignore legit practices and still stay open. It's almost as though rich people continue to throw money into these businesses to keep them alive since their clientele does very little to do that with how unethical they are.
The reason you actually enjoyed decorating a tree is because you weren’t forced to do so. Sure your wife “encouraged” you, but it wasn’t the same. You still had theoretical agency.
The first story reminds me of this scene from Spongebob; "It's so old and cold and so very full of mold!" "You're not to make another patty until that one is sold!"
Funny story. In Walmart OGP, I have seen some crap, which, of course, means moldy food given to customers. Nothing in terms of "extra cleaning", one of the things that is blasted overhead, other than trashy 60s to 80s music. I have also found mold underneath the aisle with soda and chips. Have fun ordering from Walmart!
Even if you have no mold allergies, you could get severe to deathly experiences from it. EDIT : I think in cases like this his punishment should be : Let him forcibly eat ALL of the moldy food!
I'm assuming you enjoyed doing the tree because it was YOUR family tradition now. You didn't have your parents or siblings in the way or being controlling or making comments or playing bad music or whatever usually happens. You got to do it how you wanted with people you're even closer to. You got to pick the soundtrack, the pace, the placement, and you got to enjoy the company more.
As a 7year veteran produce worker for a government grocery store, I can tell you serving moly fruit is a big NO-NO if one strawberry is bad all of them are considered bad because it is a soft fruit and mold will transfer fast even if it's not moldy enough to see with your eyes yet, the spores get everywhere. We literally have army vets come and inspect our food daily, weekly and monthly for quality. This could make someone severely sick or kill them. Especially children.
Can I just say - I love the little personal anecdotes you throw in after stories. Getting to hear about your life and family helps to give your channel a real personality over just a voice-over or a robot, and it's one of the reasons I watch you over the others. Thank you!
The strawberry story is...ew, no! As people already pointed out, the mold isn't the actual issue because it's just the active spores(as far as I remember). Most of the time, an entire network already grew inside. If that's safe to eat is up to every individual person(Ya know, sometimes taking the risk is paying off), but you don't give that to someone without their knowledge or consent. Especially not to paying customers in a restaurant! That manager is disgusting for doing that and I hope he won't have a job in the industry ever again.
4:15 good human preventing sickness Manager:Is safe to eat. Just take the white bits off. First off. Mold has roots. So the part that you can see is just a sign of what you can't. Also if he thinks is so safe.... I would if told him to eat a couple of said strawberries as a taste if his own medicine.
I've had a cop pull me over for that BS before. "Oh, you didn't come to a complete stop before turning at this stop sign, even though it's late at night, and there's literally nobody else on the road." Dude even waited to turn his lights on until I was about to pull into the parking area for my workplace, since I was heading in to work during this. Like he literally followed me after I turned and waited to pull me over for that, just to give me a warning and drive off. Some cops just out there trying to fill a quota.
I honestly surprised that none of the managers chucked out that mouldy food, its literally the second thing that they teach you as a chef, for those wondering the first thing is never keep raw meat next to cooked meat, veg, fruit or baked goods.
1st story sounds like Golden Corral but please know not all Golden Corral restaurants are like this. I have worked at 2 that would never pull this crap. It really depends on what company is running the franchise
I work with a guy that was born without actual ears. It's tough to explain, he has what looks like rolled up skin where his ears would typically be. He wears a hearing device with a receiver on one side of his head (where his left ear would be) and essentially an amplified speaker where his right ear would be. On his second day working with us a member of management saw him and told him to remove his headphones, he replied "this is my hearing aid, I don't have ears". The look on the other person's face was priceless. We've nicknamed him Bluetooth, he's a decent guy.
Many years ago, my late mum was shopping in a supermarket. They had a special offer of some free gift if you spent over £100. Well, she spent over £200 but they claimed she was only entitled to one gift. So, she told the cashier she had changed her mind about some of the stuff and to please remove them. After much adding and subtracting she managed to get to just over £100. She paid and got her gift. Then, she put the rest of the stuff through. Got a second gift. Next time she went they had changed it to one gift for every £100. 😁
The absolute defeat in his voice when he said "I don't know why I like it but I do" was just hilarious. Welcome to the holidays Papa r/, you never get to go back
As a former waitress for over 10 years, I sincerely appreciate the first story. RSLASH...as a mom...probably close to your own mom's age...Welcome to the Holiday Side 😊🎄🎄🎄
For Rslash's story about him getting to love christmas, I think the big difference it because when you were younger, the only part of chrismas kids care about is the food and the presents. However, when you did it with your wife as an adult, the decorations and tree had a function to you. they let you feel the joy of chrismas that is linked to your childhood memories as well as serving as a backdrop for activities that your wife (and you it seems ;P) wanted to do, like a photoshoot for your family and as a nice celebratory way to light the room in colours that aren't standard and samey. So yeah, kinda, when you got older and became a dad you finally had the excuse to break free of your self imposed exile from decorating, and since you can now appreciate why the decorations go up, you enjoyed it way more than you thought for reasons you thought you didn't care about (because you never used too, presents and food remember? aha)
My mom loves to decorate for the holidays, my dad doesn't care. They have an agreement. She does the decorating, and he brings down the boxes with the decorations.
Since I became a dad I love Christmas. Nothing better than setting up a tree and putting presents under it for my son. Seeing the pure joy in his eyes and experiencing the holiday through him makes it the magical holiday you dont get when you're not a parent
Is this a Golden Corral? The restaurant described sounds like a Golden Corral. Although, the one that used to be near my town(shut down due to covid) was a lot cleaner than this one sounds.
I honestly think it's just that you got to do the decorating you want to do. It's one thing when you are sort of forced to decorate how your parents are someone else wants. But you have your own thing now so I think that helps. And that first story was wonderful! I'm happy OP got those crazys fired!
I was hoping it was a Golden Corral and was glad to hear it was, hate that place I get the flu every time I go because people let their crotch goblins spread their plagues on everything instead of taking 5 minutes to fix their plate for them
I had a similar experience like the "moldy food" story. I worked at a supermarket when I was college and they did all sorts of sketchy things like that. I worked in the seafood department and they had us putting new "sell by" tags on all the frozen shrimp and frozen crab legs (the really expensive items). They would have us rewrap stuff in the pre-packaged section as well. One time I was pulling out some of the smoked trout when I saw mold growing on it. I showed it to my boss and she just said "scrape it off and repackage it. No one buys that stuff anyway". I quit shortly after that (after getting screamed at by the grocery manager for helping out the deli department... like I was asked to do). The store closed about 6 months after I left. Not surprised at all.
At the restaurant I worked at, a 40 pound roast beef was accidentally dropped, and it rolled across the floor and under the worktables, coming out covered with dirt and old grease. The staff washed it in the sink, warmed it in the oven, and then served as usual. Everyone acted as if this kind of thing happened all the time. BTW from then on I ate nothing but fried chicken at that restaurant.
The first story describing the shady things management was doing; this is apparently the norm in the restaurant industry. The stories I’ve been told by fiends who have worked in hospitality is ridiculous.
@@BeefMeisterSupreme Really lazy way to proselytize if you ask me. It's a hit-and-run tactic, very cheap, but allows one to say they've been spreading the word.
the fact the manager try pin the blame on Op that tell me the manager did it before but lucky other coworker backup Op story and we know why the last hostess probably because of the manager and if I was the big boss after fired the manager, I would tell every other restaurant what he did so they won't get shut down
I imagine that first story would bring quite the lawsuit, not just from customers, but from the workers as well who don't work in the kitchen and have no clue about the moldy situation. Chances are that food is also the main food the servers and hosts are eating for their breaks, and many servers and hosts don't usually have any business back where the food is stored, so that would be a big surprise for them, too. If any of them have been having health problems that could be explained from that, that would make it worse. Though, while gross, technically mold on food isn't too bad for you. For the most part. Very gross, yes, but scientifically speaking, not that bad for you. I think it does also depend on how much mold. The thing is, we used to eat fungus like that a LONG time ago. We still do, mushrooms. Still...I'll never be going to Golden Coral again lol. Whether or not it's not that bad and the fact our ancestors ate it doesn't just make it appetizing anyways lol.
Well, it can also be dangerous if you have an allergy to the type of mold in question, which staff wouldn't know about and managers ESPECIALLY wouldn't know about. Severe enough allergy, and that can go very, very badly.
The way you said "I like it, I do!" I just died. That's the magic of Christmas my friend. I also second what Dino CZ is saying about being able to put things up the way you want, at the pace you want without someone else's expectations.
The hearing aid stories briefly reminded me of my Grandad. He passed away around 6 years ago, but one of our favourite moments of him to remember; We (My grandad, my step grandmother, my parents, myself, my older sister and a few extended family members) had all gone out to a popular restaurant nearby and his wife (my step-grandmother) asked him where him where his hearing aid was. (He had a tendency to forget to put it in). He mumbled "Well, I have a rough idea where it might be." "Excellent. Where?" (Thinking it might be on his bedside table or on the table in the living room) "... Snowdon." "What?" We had recently been on a family holiday in Wales. My grandad and his wife had gone up Snowdon (there's a tram that takes you there), and he had lost his hearing aid up Snowdon and hadn't told anyone. I miss him.
Happy third year, rslash! I'm so proud of how much you've accomplished, I've been with you since the beginning and it's been so amazing to watch you grow. 💖
13:42 its because you did it because you wanted to, you werent really forced into it, your mom forced you do decorate obsessively, everyone will hate that, but when you get to choose what you do its a hell of alot better.
Dad here: socks and sandals are great when you need to make a short trip outside before putting real shoes. And when the baby has running around you give less of a crap.
I work in the food industry, and if I served moldy strawberries, I would have been fired so fast (I work in Chick-Fil-A, so presentation is everything!) and had the FDA on me. The fact they just wash it off just sickens me. Once, I noticed some lettuce was smelly, so I ran it by my coworker, and we had to throw out so many bags of lettuce because they were slimy and smelly. Never once did we use that batch. What were those managers thinking?
I have trauma from Golden Corral.. I went there once and when I went to the bathroom there was poop literally covering the floor. I think I was 6 or 7 at the time and I didn’t really know what to do so I just stood there awkwardly until a custodian came to clean it up. I definitely did not eat their food after that.
I went through a similar love/hate relationship with Christmas traditions. You’re allowed to like tradition;I finally decided I could claim it as my own regardless of the number of other people who did or didn’t do something similar. You can add new traditions to old ones, you don’t have to reinvent the tree.
She probably just wears minimal makeup, like maybe just mascara and lip gloss. But, from what I've seen of restaurants like what I'm guessing that one was, they probably wanted her to go full Dolly Parton.
@@rebeccamount50 That's the job. I wonder, however, how this can actually be evaluated? Like... how much makeup is enough for the job? It's not like you can objectively judge it or can you?
@@robertpanek5944 We don't have enough information about the expectations of the workplace and what they asked her to change about her appearance to respond the way you did. It could be someone overreacting, or it could be someone who, as they said, already felt they'd dressed appropriately for the job and resented being told they weren't up to standards. There's just too little information to make a judgement call. So latching onto a label and responding as you did is, as I view it, a shitty thing to do.
9:36 I was saying just asking my roommate if that sounded familiar to her and she said: It has to be G.C. We ate there once and got food poisoning from the ice cream. When complaining about the taste, everyone was told it was a new flavor additive that wasn't mixed well. FYI it was spoiled cream. Hospital was slammed by violently sick kids who ate it not knowing it was bad.
Nah I totally believe something like that happens at Golden Corrals all the time because that place is sketchy af. The one closest to us closed because of Covid and I honestly don’t see that as a bad thing.
I think the whole thing about liking holiday decorating as an adult is it's you doing it for yourself. We have a tiny little live Christmas tree that we bought in 2020. We didn't get it until after Christmas and didn't get to decorate it. But in 2021, we did. It's still in a place of pride in our living room with the ornaments we made ourselves that aren't Christmas themed but are very cute. There's this kind of delight you get for being an adult and having the power over your own life to do things just because you want to do them. Want to buy a six foot tall werewolf skeleton and dress it up and pretend it's a roommate? Do it. Our roommate Rufus is great!
I'm allergic to mold so if anyone there had a mold allergy then they will most likely be responsible for somebody getting sick from it. It pissed me off but seriously I hope nobody with a mold allergy actually ate there.
"this probably isn't that interesting"...man, I loved that story and it is kind of wholesome too. I'm glad you had to experienced that and actually liked it. Btw regards from Mexico!
The set of goblets story... When my daughter was 7-ish, McDonald's had the mini Beanie Babies sets. My dad would do the same thing. The Mini Beanies came one per Happy Meal. He would buy 1 Happy Meal at a time until he completed the whole set. There was 12 in the set, and he did it TWICE. 1 to open and play with, 1 to keep sealed to collect. And they ended up having a FEW SETS...
so for the molsy strawberries, mold when it's fuzzy and on the surface of something, you gotta throw it away because that the fruiting body of mold. If it's growing the fruiting body, is got mold on the inside as well
