Everything seems terrible, but sometimes you read a mess of a story in Fox in Print (paywalled at WSJ) & you get a glimmer of hope. This was in a P1 piece struggling to explain how steakhouses are struggling to stay afloat with beef costs ballooning under the guy who won reelection promising to bring down egg prices. And these are restaurants charging $150 for a prime New York strip. Which costs $50 wholesale: “One error in the kitchen, and $50 ends up in the trash.” Overdone is unfixable; underdone & re-seared is gonna piss off someone deep-pocketed. Cuz the most essential ingredient in steak dinners is … a supremely skilled cook. The Latino ones are getting deported, and AI is not gonna replace ‘em. He’s running the food economy like it’s Trump Steaks.
