I love to cook, but some fruit never gets away from the sink.

Not sure about three course meals, though.

I hate the chopping and the dozen stupid ingredients. It makes a few dollars of chicken into a thirty dollar meal. Then you never use the ingredients again before they spoil.

even have to go to a special store to get. Are those REALLY necessary? Is there no commonly used herb (for example) with a similar flavor?

You’re a sink-eater? Come on. That’s just nasty. Sometimes things are designed for the people who just love to eat their hunks over the wash-bowl. This is a plate for your dinner-table or TV-dinner that -by the looks of it- is a sink, drain and all.

But wait- if they can’t take the time to get a plate out, why would they take the time to buy a sink-plate?

Sherwood Lee is a disgusting, horrible person, and a designer:
