We aren't going to make it, are we? People I mean.

I prefer non smoked.
ETA- i don’t love cheese. When i do have it i prefer more mild flavors.
Why do you add an Estimated Time of Arrival, but then not give a time?

Well at least it’s sterile after that. I’d hate to buy expired meat that was swimming and bacteria.
You ever think about grocery stores 30 years ago? Before the celebrity chef craze? They were sad places. Nowhere near the variety that we have now. On the other hand, your average grocery store had a lot more cuts of meat. Everything’s been whittled down to just a few select cuts. Flank steak has all but disappeared. Pork neck bones are a rarity. Don’t even think about finding a skirt steak. It was a whole other world back then.
Meat that is going bad has toxins from the bacteria that can’t be bleached or destroyed with heat. It’s the main reason you get sick from it even if you cook it.

I was joking. But seriously, stores sucked back then

My wife would like the second and third.
Damn right.
Risky stuff, but damnit nothing else works.

Shopping at the Shitty Kitty? Not likely.
Also, provolone comes smoked and not smoked. Why anyone would buy the not smoked one, I don’t know, but it is a thing. Should it be? I dunno. Blue cheese is a thing…
Because it overwhelms other flavors.
I’m not putting smoked provolone on a cheese steak - you won’t taste anything else.

grocery stores where I lived were fine in the mid 90s?

It was pretty clear that this was unique to Food Lion and widespread as a policy. Folks wouldn’t buy meet there. This was 25 years ago when I moved to an area that had Food Lion stores and caught static for even shopping there.
My opinion of grocery stores 30 years ago was that they were not, on the whole, sad. They could be, sure, but IMO big chains are worse now than then. Perhaps because they bought all the competition? I’ve never been a big meat eater, so maybe I noticed the changes elsewhere.

It’s not about that it comes in both options. It’s that they felt the need to label this one by what it wasn’t.
Eh, I’ll give them a pass. You can’t tell just by looking at it so it makes sense to mark “Smoked” vs. “Not Smoked” otherwise people are going to ask… “Is this smoked?”

Yeah, like sweet and unsweet or salted and unsalted.

Yup, like butter. Salted vs. Unsalted. You need both for different purposes, but just looking at it, no way to know.

Because all I taste when eating anything “smoked” are ashes. I don’t know why people pay to eat ashes, but I’m certainly not gonna.
I think you might just be cursed. Have you wronged any ancient deities?

ALL of them, hopefully.
