this is a safe zone. reveal yourself.

cheddar too heavy

I’ll eat it if that all you got

at my house you getting cream tho...

i think most recipes use cream cheese too. i always ask when im at a restaurant that im not sure about. its disappointing to bite into one.

Edit: it has some cream cheese aspects, but there's other cheeses in there too.

i think churchs is my go to. first place i ever had them and they still taste like i remember them. jack in the box is good too though. breading is a bit thick though.

sonic needs to call theirs pickle poppers...uhm okay not that but they cant be jalapeños.

the greater Seattle lacks a lot of big fast food chains that are found elsewhere, including Church's.

shit, you gotta go WAY (and I mean way) north or south of Seattle to find simple shit like Popeye's/Sonic/etc.

theyre very good. probably favorite fast food ones after churchs.

Only market I can think of for that shit is old white ladies and recovering anorexics

forget you :-)

With the jalapeño cheddar dip from Philly Cream Cheese. Them hoes be hot as shit though.

Generally, jalapeno poppers are bottom tier as far as appetizers go, so I have no preference.

Jalapeno poppers are near the bottom, as are chicken tenders. I would really have to think about what I would consider god-tier.

it’s my “go to” appetizer when I entertain...

lol

garlicky
spicy
with meats...
not to mention the 444 different dips you can use

can’t do much with cheddar...

cant we just unite in clowning "miss poppers are bottom tier but i cant name anything better?"

just making the case for why I voted blue.

I don’t do the clowning thing...

cant touch cheddar.

anything else is noise.

>cant we just unite in clowning "miss poppers are bottom tier
>but i cant name anything better?"

I'm too lazy tonight, I'll have a complete list tomorrow.

hmm

(I'm assuming that we're at your average mid-range sit down restaurant. Anything higher and the options become too varied to really discuss.)

God Tier -

1) Chicken Wings - A king among kings. (of course with bones)
2) Quesadillas
3) Fried Raviolis - This was a toss up btw fried raviolis and mozzarella sticks, but in my opinion raviolis win because the outer coating tends to be crispier and they are not as common as mozzarella sticks.

Average Tier -

1) Chips and Dip - Good but so easy to fuck up. Chips have to be fresh and hot. Dips have to have the perfect consistency and not be too salty. Often the ratio of chips to dip is off, resulting in wasted food. A good fallback with a crowd.
2) Nachos - At this point don't even call them appetizer, most places sell them entree sized. In my case often requires quite a bit of modification since I'm (a little bit) picky. Wings are worth the effort, but sometimes you don't want to eat with your hands, and nachos are not usually worth dirtied hands.
3) Anything shrimp themed - Too often the shrimp is farmed and tasteless. Tend to have a stupidly high amount of bread/coating with a poor ratio of shrimp. Also not worth the possibility of not being cleaned right; nobody is trying to eat the digestive track of these shits.

Garbage Tier -

1) Fried Pickles - Fucking gross.
2) Boneless Wings - You might as well eat dog food if you eating this shit.
3) Calamari particularly calamari rings - This might be psychosomatic, but all I can think of is the rumor that calamari is pig rectum and I just can't do it. Once you get into nicer places you tend to get whole calamari, but at this point I never order calamari rings.

(Jalapeno poppers would fall somewhere btw average tier and garbage tier by the way. Worth tasting one if somebody else orders it, but not worth getting an entire order's worth)

This is no appetizer, maybe like nachos it used to be but come on, there are whole wing places. Disqualified!

>2) Quesadillas

Sure. So common and easy though.

You're trolling now.

Um, you pay for chips and dips? They put these on the table before you even make it there. I will say Taco Cabanas queso is worth paying for. More so as a dip for flautas.

You sharing nachos as an appetizer during COVID?

One good answer. You know the best kind? The shrimped stuffed bacon wrapped JALAPEÑO POPPERS!

At least we can agree on this. Weren't you the one that was going to make a peanut butter and pickle sandwich? How did that go?
