    This has nothing to do with the original concept/internet meme of “girl dinner”, this is just salad and fries. Girl dinner is like… six olives and an entire sleeve of crackers with peanut butter directly out of the jar. Girl dinner is three slices of cheddar cheese, and an entire bag of baby carrots with hummus. If you have the emotional capacity to cook fries and mix a salad, that is not girl dinner, thats just dinner. This is capitalism using buzzwords without understanding what they’re saying and I’m irrationally annoyed by this one in particular because I fucking love Girl Dinner.

    That is all. Hope your next meal is delicious and fulfilling xoxo

      Thank you, this makes so much more sense.

      I also love ‘Girl Dinner’, and I’m just a lazy guy.

      I just tend to call it a mega-snack, and eat slightly different combos of snack foods than I guess the stereotypical (typical?) girl snack foods, but they still aim to hit the same spectrum of food groups and nutrients.

        Yeah, you just keep eating various snacks until you aren’t hungry anymore.

          Hrm.

          I try to… plan my ‘mega-snacks’ to hit a bit more specific food groups / kinds of nutrients than just… munching on whatever untill I’m full.

          So, still lazy in that it doesn’t require any actual ‘cooking’ or food prep, beyond just grabbing an assortment of things.

          But no so lazy that basically 0 thought is put into it.

          … Not sure if that qualifies as a meaningful difference in terms of ‘girl dinner’ vs ‘mega snack’.

          Also, I’m using the word ‘lazy’, but I’ve been seriously depressed and/or exhausted and overwhelmed before, ‘lazy’ isn’t quite the right word…

          … as it tends to imply there was even a possibility that you had the mental bandwidth to decide to not use, to actively be ‘lazy’, when that isn’t always the case for someone who chronically having a really not good time.

    In Pittsburgh odds are fries would come on the salad with every dinner. Strange tradition, but I don’t mind it.

    Aka, “vegetarian gets dragged to a steakhouse.”

    Watch out, that looks like a Caesar salad, which has anchovies in the dressing.

      Most places are using bottled dressings shits just flavouring and thickeners.

    So I’m a guy and that looks like a fine meal for a night of drinking to me.

    The presentation in a comically oversized martini glass is perhaps a bit silly, but…

    Yeah this just looks like a pre-game meal of champions to me, if you maybe swap out the croutons for something like breaded chicken nuggets or smaller breaded tenders.

    my one concern is that I wouldn’t want a salad dressing touching my fries. especially since I tend to prefer a light vinagrette.

    I wonder if such a sauce exists that could function as both salad dressing and fry sauce. probably something starting with a thousand island base?
