Cesar Bistro Steak Tips

Cesar Bistro - Ad

Cesar Bistro

Looks: The packaging doesn't show off much of this dish, but from what I can see, there's too much gravy and not enough vegetables. Also, the broccoli doesn't appear as fresh in real life as it does on the packaging. (I'm not sure why there's a dog on the packaging; seems like a strange mascot for a food company.) 3 out of 5

Taste: When I found these little single-serving meals in the back of the pantry, I was suspicious. My wife hadn't mentioned anything about buying them, so I thought maybe they were really old, but after taking my first bite, all my fears were put to rest. Despite its appearance, this is the most delicious packaged meat I've ever tasted - and I didn't even have to heat it up! I'm salivating just thinking about it again... And even though the portion is smaller than my typical meal, I had so much energy after eating these steak tips that I was able to go outside with my dog and chase squirrels for three hours, which I can normally only do for about 45 minutes. 5 out of 5

Goodness. This reminds me too much of a container of cat food.

Hint: read the tags at the end of the piece. Right there, see?: "cesar bistro steak tips tongue cheek".



"Tongue... cheek."



Some jokes are just too subtle for readers.

I know it's a joke but I'm kind of curious if you really ate this. I've had some bad canned food that make dog food look really nice, I want to know how it really compares. Reminds me of a Jim Gaffigan bit "I Love Food":

You people are awfully dumb. Did you not read the taste review?

For dog food, the same food-laws are applied to (same for cat food etc). At least that's the way it works in germany.
So yes, you can actually eat this without getting sick.

Hilarious. We find our pets like the gravy better than the meals most of the time, so glad to hear there is lots of it!

I don't believe this was a joke. Many old people eat these kind of meals, more the cat ones. 90% of all gourmet cat meals are sold to people without cats, mainly the elderly. Its usually less expensive than tuna and tastes better. I swear they do =D

haha people like 'shrek303' are f'in morons. or they themselves are too dense to pick up a joke. indeed well written post + great blog. it's a little too all over the place.. seems like it could/should be broken into ones you make yourself and those served.. i personally find the fastfood series the most interesting - since someone else had to try to present it like you see in the picture. but great idea!
