I’m sure I’ve eaten more than 4 cheese sticks before.

Personally 6 is about where the self loathing kicks in

8 is typically where I stop

I have a friend who still brings up that all I fed him when he was at my house in high school was 12 cheese sticks. To me, that was a meal for royalty and I stand by it

Invite him over and give him fried mozzarella sticks. See if he even bats an eye.

What are string cheese sticks, my precious? —A European

[–] [email protected] 10 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Ah okay! I think i know what that is, sort of like real mozzarella but less ripe in a way, so it peels sort of stripy?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago

Low moisture mozzarella, yep. Great for baking because it melts instead of turning into a puddle under heat.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago

pretty much, mozzarella sticks are basically just those, breaded and fried into a stick of delicious heart attack juice

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

They can also be easily found in Europe. I see the cheestrings brand everywhere here.

Wtf kinda monster mozzarella sticks are you eating if they're the size of string cheese sticks?

Hi, welcome to Chili's

[–] [email protected] 31 points 11 months ago (1 children)

4 string cheese sticks is too many….? Oh my.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Some men are reasonable.

Unlike us.

Some men cover their weakness behind concepts like "reason" and "civility".

[–] [email protected] 6 points 11 months ago

I’m pretty sure my 7-year daughter just devoured 4 of those and some goldfish for a mid-afternoon snack the other day.

I'm going to change your life right now.

Spicy nacho cheese sauce, steaming hot.

You're welcome.

So i just need to confirm: you are suggesting i dip my cheese in batter, then oil, then more cheese?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You forgot to sprinkle them with cheese after they come out of the oil.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago (2 children)

What type of oil should I use?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 11 months ago

Chee... Cheese oil? I don't know, I'm just trying to fit in.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Peanut oil is rarely the wrong answer. Canola oil is ok if you have plenty already.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

Tallow will be best though. Bonus if you go that route: you can make the original recipe of McDonald's fries but beware that you'll be (more) ruined on the trash they sell today.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Yeah you're right.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Tasty stuff but how does it relate to this post other than just being food?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 11 months ago (1 children)

The suggestion is that it's good with mozzarella sticks.

[–] sweeny 1 points 11 months ago

Ohhh op also talks about tortilla chips so I was like

"Um yeah dude, they sell that with chips at like every stadium ever"

Me at home: I'll have some hot wings as a meal.

Me at restaurants: I'll have some hot wings as an appetizer, and a burger for the meal.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago

I dont understand.. the string cheese packages are more than one portion? (i mean of course im only going to have 2.. and another 2 in 5mins.. [repeat until none left])

[–] [email protected] 6 points 11 months ago (4 children)

Ranch is for amateurs.. Go Alfredo sauce or go home!

[–] [email protected] 10 points 11 months ago

why choose, more sauces are always better than less sauces

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 months ago

Alfredo dipping sauce?

You, sir, have changed my world. I never thought to use it as a dipping sauce.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You're trying to pick a fight with the entire state of Oklahoma there, buddy.

[–] Kernal64 2 points 11 months ago

Sounds to me like an entire state of amateurs. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[–] Kernal64 1 points 11 months ago

While I applaud both your disparaging of the grossly overused ranch and your innovation regarding alfredo sauce, the correct mozzarella stick sauce is marinara.
