Masters Scandal

Here’s a new one. Some of you might be familiar with this:

The Sandwich Scandal at the Heart of the World’s Greatest Golfing Event

 

I like pimento cheese better than PB&J.

Couldn't they have just gone to Sam's Club and picked up tubs of it? Doubt anyone could tell.

 

Apparently some of these people take their pimentos very, very seriously.

Do they have craft beer at The Masters?

 

Any asshole with a knife can make a PB&J. Any asshole who knows how to find a proper deli and have baloney cut fresh can make a good baolney sandwich.

But someone who really knows what they are doing can make a glorious pimento cheese. The same with a grilled cheese.

 

My paternal grandmother made killer grilled cheese sandwiches. My maternal grandmother lazed out and put Nutter Butters in the cookie jar for us.

 

A guy on sports radio in Boston got a pass for Saturday and talked about the food. He had the egg sandwich instead of the pimento cheese sandwich so I didn't hear anything about this issue. He did mention that in regards to drinks, they were sold as 'soda' or 'beer' with no options.

 

Honestly, I love the power move of not overcharging for food.

That's an I-got-so-much-fucking-money-I-don't-even-think-about-it move. But, fuck you if you want it for free.

 

I think they added a craft beer option in recent years, but it seems like it's only one choice -- American Craft Beer for $5, a buck more than a domestic. I'm guessing it's probably a local option. They do enough volume that they don't want people to have to hem and haw and make a choice. Take your IPA and like it. Someone who has actually gone, please feel free to correct me.

 

Pick out pimento very carefully.

 

I loved "Chef" and Favreau's follow-on cooking shows. He comes across as a very genuine and likable guy.

 

I wish I could find a link to Bill Burr coming in and making a grilled cheese.

I love the “yes, I know this is really fucking good” nod Favreau gives.
