Disgusting.
I've never ate there, are the ones at the food court or whatever any different than the ones you buy as groceries?

True, but “really good” isn’t “amazing” and supports the idea that it’s all a worse version of something else. Including food.

Maybe. I know you can’t actually buy the chicken strips they sell at the food court by the bag, so maybe the hot dog is also its own unique thing.

Or maybe there’s just something about cross contamination and a foil wrapper that makes a hot dog a hot dog.

That is true, applies to most food actually. Ever tried to make a chopped cheese or Philly at home? Even with top-tier ingredients it's dog#### compared to the street version

I suppose not, but Locke is probably the only one here who went to that hot dog stand. Can't comment on what I don't know.

What we each think is amazing the other likely wouldn't.

The nonchalant mention of ####ting your bed as if it were just a normal common thing, wtf.

Looking at his channel I wouldn't be surprised if it's a normal common thing. He eats a lot of garbage food.

The signage sucks there. Things are backed up way before there is an overhead sign explaining the lanes. I've been caught out in the past because I might end up there like once every few years at rush hour. Half the people you're ####ing with probably made an innocent mistake

How much data do you need? When we got are kids phones freedom worked out cheapest.

They have a $10 5gb watch plan and now a $5 phone plan with 100mb of fast data but unlimited 3G data which allows for things like iMessage to work.

I think both have a $45 activation fee though.

If you don’t need data at all I think freedom has a nationwide talk and text plan for around $200/year

When I think of places in Canada with good food, Toronto doesn't come to mind right away. I think Montreal then Vancouver.

Toronto has some good food

Had a great late night Thai meal right downtown, place was packed and food was excellent

Also had a great meal at Canoe

I struggle to think of a city that doesn’t have good food.

Every city has good food, sometimes you just can’t be lazy to find it.
