You can buy a 64z beer, which is two quarts, at many breweries in the US, and even refill a reusable glass jug called a growler to do it. That’s close enough to two liters.

It’s valid for beer, too.

I don’t want to say you’re wrong about your own tastes, but, uh… You should definitely be eating some of the things salad is made out of.

Something like Crystal or Frank’s is about right. I find that McIlhenney’s and Cholula don’t have the right flavor profile I’m looking for.

Have you seriously never consumed hotsauce? Salad dressing? Mustard? Pickles?

It works best with a savory batter in a Belgian-style deep waffle iron. You need both real maple syrup and a vinegary hotsauce. Bone-in fried chicken is best, especially thigh. Put the hotsauce on the chicken and the syrup on the waffle, cut a bit of each and eat all four components together in one bite… it’s transcendent.

I didn’t get it either until I tried it. It’s a combination of sweet and fat and heat and salt and acid but also fluffy-crispy waffle texture and crunchy-silky fried chicken texture. It’s almost everything good about eating in a single bite.

You’re absolutely right, but I’ve only seen this abominable act in a microwave… and even then only on television.

First the filter, then the loose leaves, then water.

Heating water in the mike is fine. Heating already-made tea in the mike is fine. Heating water with a teabag in it in the microwave is the vilest act.

I get my manager. That’s their job, it’s generally what the customer wants anyway, and I’m not paid enough to take abuse.
