So apparently some of my ideas are infectious
Let me explain.
With the news that Red Lobster was closing down for good due to bankruptcy and shady business dealings what led to it, I felt nostalgic for their cheddar garlic biscuits. Which I think we can all agree that, for those of us who went to Red Lobster as a kid, that was like half the trip right there. Oh sure, you'd get some overpriced seafood, but man, the biscuits were things to look forward to! They were so good you just had to snatch a few due to not having proper impulse control as a child.
So I decided before I went grocery shopping today to look up what it would take to make my own biscuits. Like so! This was the recipe I used!
These Garlic Cheddar Biscuits are a quick and easy recipe! These Red Lobster copycat biscuits are soft, buttery, and cheesy!
They came out perfectly.
Twenty little blobs of doughy goodness. Not as salty as they were when Red Lobster served them, which is great. Because they did that to trick you into getting refills, which I'm pretty sure were not free. Had to make money somewhere! And little eyes, big stomach, small bladders.
See, the reason I bring this up is because...I said all of this to my friend. Who lives in Australia, and I don't know that they...had Red Lobster over there. But he did, uh, this.
And I realized before I laid myself down to sleep, after a day that's been far too long, is that...this is it. This is all the cheddar garlic biscuits we're ever going to get from now on. The stores are closing. From now on, there will be entire generations of Americans who cannot experience the same nostalgia we older guard will upon the taste of the biscuit hitting our tongues. They will not realize why we cry a single, solitary tear of sorrow upon devouring the biscuit.
We weep not for what we've lost, but for what you've never had.
