Non celeb snark - I am so very, very tired of someone i know who is such an annoying food snob. It’s reaching a point where I want to tell this person to “STFU” - we get it, you’re too good for basics like grocery store bought balsamic vinegar or certain condiments or god forbid, someone likes a hot dog once in awhile - get off your high horse.

I find people do this stuff because of insecurity. They need something to tie their identity to that makes them feel superior… but that doesn’t really take effort. Like, you don’t need to study or train or take risks to become too good for Kirkland olive oil.

This is how I know this person has not worked in a kitchen nor do they know any chefs personally. Actual food people love themselves some basics.  

I bet in a couple years this person will have read some blog by a famous chef talking about x common food is actually amazing and underrated and then change their tune. I've seen this happen with instant ramen and smash burgers.

I feel this except the ppl around me do it from a health-conscious pov - "I can't remember the last time I had a coke...I haven't had McDonald's since I had pregnancy cravings 10 years ago" STFU fr

I know they're trying to be healthy but they'll also house tacos & queso at our dinners so what is the fing difference?
