Why would anyone write this cookbook?

[Richter]

I'd be disturbed, but in my weaker moment's I've taken chugs of terriaki sauce.

Your pot made me realize my kettle is black cramulus.

[Jasper]

Brings new meaning to "I really need to lay off the sauce."

[President Television]

I have this cookbook.  I was so grossed out by what I have been eating over the years.  

And this is the true value of the cookbook.

[AFK]

If they can tell me how to make TGI Friday's Jack Daniels sauce, this book is worth its weight in TGI Friday's Jack Daniels sauce.

I have to agree with this.  That shit is pretty good.

I still hate that "Chef Food Dude" that they have on their menus.   He's like some kind of supreme being of douchiness.

Worse than the Microsoft search dog or Office Paper Clip?

[Jasper]

I've actually come to see the paperclip as a talented troll, thus granting it a certain likability.

so they get this to pretend like they've gone out to their favorite restaurant.

Those places aren't restaurants, they're troughs.

Not to them that like to eat there. I think theyre ok, but I cook better.

Le gasp! But now who will they blame for child obesity??

[Bruno]

I absolutely love KFC chicken. But I am on a diet, and also to be done right it has to be cooked under pressure.

Captain D's makes the best sweet and sour sauce I've ever had.

Also quiet desperation and crushing depression.  Food tastes better when it is cooked with pain. 

[LMNO]

Which is why I normally cook while wearing a hairshirt.

It's a bit late in the thread to be mentioning this, but as far as I can tell the only possible reason to make this cookbook would be using it to produce your own tastier and far healthier versions of the recipes. I do that with a recipe I found online for Panera Bread's black bean soup. My version has more nutrients and a fraction of the salt, and I like it enough that I haven't bothered to taste the original. If a restaurant cookbook gave me ideas for healthy alternatives while preserving the flavors I enjoy I'd probably buy it and never willingly eat fast food. Though I know many people would follow the instructions rather than think "gee, fifty tablespoons of salt and three cups of unidentified grease? Maybe I should cut those down a bit."

Aint it the truth.
