Back when I worked at Burger King in high school, there was me and a stoner running the late shift. I’m running the drive through and the guy wants a Whopper, plain but heavy, heavy, heavy, […], heavy, heavy pickles. I push the “heavy pickles” button about 7 times. He probably said it 15-20. The stoner starts giggling and says “I’LL GIVE THIS FUCKER JUST WHAT HE ASKED FOR.” He proceeds to put, easily, 100 pickle slices on the sandwich. At this point it’s a pickle burger with a little meat. It goes out the window and we go about our day.
Manager gets a call about 15 minutes later. Guy calls in and asks to talk to the person who made his sandwich. Manager says “sigh, what did he do this time?” Guy says he’s been eating at Burger King for 15 years and this was the first person to make his Whopper the way he wanted.
I struggle with spices. I make it clear at every Indian/Thai places that they should pretend I am from their country in terms of spice levels. That they literally can not make it to spicy even if they tried. That I want them to gag and cough and cry just being in the same room as my food. And yet all of them fail me.
At Thai places ask for “pet mak mak”
Noted. Thanks
Try Tibetan. It’s a kind of spicy I’ve never experienced before or since. I’m not a huge spiciness fan, but it’s totally different from the spiciness of Indian or Thai food, the spiciness of Mexican food or even the spiciness of horseradish. I do know that I took a Mexican friend to a Tibetan restaurant and he bravely ordered the hottest level of spiciness and said he totally regretted it.
At Beeeee-kay. Have it your way.
You rule!
The only place that ever puts as many pickles as I want on my burgers is Harvey’s.
As you described, it’s a pickle burger with meat.
You would have made my fucking day, month, year with that burger.
Harvey’s is the best. They’ll let you do almost anything with your burger lol

I hold hope for you that someone makes you that perfect burger.
Just give me all the
bacon and eggsolives you have. Wait, wait. I’m worried what you just heard was, “Give me a lot ofbacon and eggsolives.” What I said was, “Give me all thebacon and eggsolives you have”. Do you understand?Delicious compliance.
My favorite kind
Feliz compliance
As a fellow olive lover, this looks delicious!
Yeah it does. I ordered pineapple and olive this weekend and they gave me like, 6 olives on the whole thing, so I’m very jealous.
Oof. That sucks. I’m so sorry about your pineapple pizza.
… Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
I hate olives, but this is beautiful
All kinds?
Yes all both of them
There are a tons of variety not only black and greens
And yet they all taste like olives.
You don’t mess with Italians about olives.
Try some taggiasche and tell me they taste like green ones.
Will they still taste like olives? Because I’m guessing they will.
This is like someone saying “I don’t like apples” and someone else saying, “red delicious doesn’t taste like granny smith.” Yes, but they still both taste like apples.
First of all the black and greens have quite different taste. The taggiasche have a totally different flavour. Like there’s people not liking black olives but are in love with taggiasche.
Depends on what do you mean by “taste like olives”.
For example, someone saying pizzas all taste like pizzas could be right if they mean that they all have the base taste of the dough. But then the overall taste is very different based on the toppings.
Taggiasche olives have a much stronger taste, something that’s usually made with Green ones would probably suck made with them and vice versa, that’s what I mean.
Even Olive Oyl from Popeye?
Ew, who wants to eat her? Other than Popeye and Bluto, obviously.
hey now, there are 3!
brined out of their minds green ones with bell pepper jelly inside them, and then normal green and black ones.
only the brined out of their minds ones are edible.
Me too! I don’t know what they’re like for everyone else, but I find them intensely bitter.
Olive oil is awesome, tho
I love you and this is ugly.
As an olive hater and tomato sauce purist:
that’s not even a pizza anymore.
well it’s called a white pie so i guess it never was
That’s fine, it says “pie” anyway…
As an olive lover, it clearly said “White Pie”.
i love black olives but they ruin a pizza. its all i end up tasting
That’s one of my main problems with them, too.
Black olives matter
BOM
Sounds catchy.
That’s actually pretty sweet.
Our olives will blot out the sun!
Then we will eat in the shade 😌
That actually looks really tasty. Lol
I love it that there’s a container with some extra olives too (i’m assuming)
I went to Olive Garden restaurant once with a friend of mine, and during dinner he made the claim that Olive Garden consumes 20% of the world’s black olive supply. I couldn’t convince him of how ludicrous this was even despite pointing out the measly two slices of black olive in our shared salad bowl.
That’s hilarious.
“it’s in the name, bro!”
It’s a shitty garden that causes a net decrease in the world’s supply of their crop.
Just another way Olive Garden is terrible.
I love black olives on my pizza. I’d eat the hell out of this!
same, i dig it
Things like this restore my faith in humanity.
Much salt. ಠ_ಠ
Eh pizza from these types of restaurants already isn’t that healthy to begin with and your body can more than tank the effects of an occasional special treat like this.
Just remember to drink a lot of water.
It’s salty before the 10 lbs of olives, this is gonna be like licking a salt block, regardless of the health consequences.
Speaking of, wasn’t there an article on lemmy the other day saying the studies on salt and blood pressure are not actually that conclusive?
Uh… Asking for a friend
Yeah but who’s gonna eat a whole pizza by themselves? They probably had two slices like a normal person and ate the rest the next day.
😶🌫️
Who’s to say there’s a problem with licking a salt block? You’re out there in the pasture sweating in the hot sun and there it is, all tempting and shiny and blue…
The only issue is the shiny comes from the cow slobber
Probably less salty still than these things!
thks for your comment, sir
in what country do pizzas cost $30? edit: damn your pizzas are either huge or expensive, here in finland a standard pizza costs about 12€ and with 25€ you get heavenly pizza made with the best ingredients baked in a wood fired oven. And i thought food here was expensive
The same place where you can get that many olives on a pizza without paying extra, I guess.
That’s like standard price in many parts of the us for a large/XL real pizza, not like pizza hut :(
Pizza hut huts $30 if you add 4 toppings. Pizza is stupid expensive anymore.
Vegan Cheese expensive AF.
I live in nyc. You can get large plain pie for $18 from most places. Toppings are usually about $4 each.
But there are expensive places. At work we ordered some pies for an in-office event last week. The guy picked a fancy place where all the pies were at least $30.
Not delivered these days…
The US lol (I live here, can confirm)
Canada for one, a large pepperoni at my local pizza place is $28. Most of the loaded type pizzas are $35-$40 for a large.
I went to a place on the Oregon coast not that long ago that was selling large pizzas for $43. There was nothing special about the pizza, it was not in a particularly touristy area, I don’t know what they were thinking.
That’s what I thought. Imagine paying 30 bucks for a pizza in (I assume) the US and then be expected to give a six dollar tip. Brutal. I’d never order in.
