Reflections From a Murky Pond

Bloody Hell Mary!

I think that just about everyone who knows me knows that I’m very much not a follower of the weight-loss and fashion cartels religion of “American Obesity” and that I have exactly zero issues with the normative American trend of large and luxurious meal servings. Still, some things that I find manage to strike even me oddly, as if some restaurants have chosen to attempt to prove that Reductio ad Absurdum isn’t a fallacy after all.

And yes, I also know that creative garnishes on Bloody Marys is a thing, a meme or trope even, and a way for venues to differentiate themselves from their competition. But let’s actually list what this particular Bloody Mary is “garnished” with:

1. Lemon & Lime
2. Celery
3. Olives
4. Cocktail Onions
5. Pickled Jalapenos
6. Shrimp
7. Pepperjack Cheese
8. Chicken Wings
9. Bacon Strips
10. Waffle Fries
11. Sliders

This is most assuredly the drink that eats like a meal. 😉 And indeed, it looks like a quite tasty and satisfying brunch, lunch, or after work snack. The only thing that makes me twitch – beyond the extremity of it – is that most Americans are conditioned to not “drink their meals” and would be compelled to order and eat a “normal” meal with it.

Business, with the possible exception of the financial sector, is difficult in America during these times. The economy is still in the tank and looks to continue to be that way for the foreseeable future, largely because of the policies and rhetoric of the current regime.

This is especially true for consumer industries that have over the years pared themselves down to the point where one brand is little different from the next…such as fast food or pizza delivery.

Fortunately, American businesses are innovative and adaptable. Those in competition with each other for direct consumer business are especially so and they’ve learned that ensuring consumer satisfaction is the best way to achieve a happy ending for all concerned. 😆

In India they take cunnilingus seriously and they’re not shy about it at all.

Of course, in a country that gave the world the Kama Sutra and Tantram, one would have to expect that they’d like things hot and spicy. 😉

I’ll say one thing; I’d love to see their menu!
