Lemon On Steaks

[Drastic]

I would probably dismiss lemon on steak except for the lovely dish I get weekly at a Persian restaurant, called a Barg kebab.

You squeeze lime over it. When I forget, it totally changes the flavor and is maybe half of the greatness.

So gimp, have you actually tried it?

I remember Jamie Oliver did a show talking about school lunches in the US, and he was stunned to see that there were some kids in the US who thought butter came from corn.

He didn't realize that the word "Butter" is a generic term for butter OR margarine.

And Drastic:  Lemon and Lime are two different flavors.  Lime on steak sounds pretty good.  (And is GREAT on steak fajitas.)

Lemon...I'm not so sure.  But I'll try anything.

Yeah, that's how I know Jamie Oliver's was shit on that day. I even got others to try it. They hated it.

 lol fair enough!

I sometimes find him incredibly annoying, but I like him.

He seems to be more annoying in recorded shows. Pretty sure that directors are telling him to "essex it up a bit: Gurn more more and say some nonsense words". Live / more relaxed shows he is OK.

I like him because I think he is genuinely driven by a good conscience and that is too rare a thing in business.

I liked Oliver in his earlier years but once he got on the big "attack the commercial food industry" kick he went on a few years back he started getting annoying. Does he really think anyone who eats chicken nuggets cares that they use mechanically separated chicken?

And I would never think to put lemon on steak. I would use it in a marinade for some middle eastern steak dishes with some flank or skirt steak or something but never on a ribeye or NY strip or anything like that.

>about school lunches in the US

He (and I wept) for the US kids. If that was true - and I believe it was - the kids in the US are f-ed. I mean, WTF, is that crap they feed the kids and the nutritional guidelines are out of whack as well?

I love the US and ya'll, but ya need to get the food (and guns) under control.

>>but ya need to get the food (and guns) under control

Perfect solution! Give the kids guns and let them hunt their own food.
