Rant: Why Do They Insist On Thick?

Oh the horror!

This one is a short one. Have you ever noticed that at your supermarket deli, you need to tell them to slice your salami or prosciutto thin?

Seriously, are you kidding me?

While nothing says love to food like a prosciutto steak, or a grinding wheel of salami, but who are we kidding? I bet that the people behind that counter have never actually had to eat their mishaps, or they would know what an insane amount of chewing goes into trying to choke back a sinewy piece of leather.

Don’t they teach people before they get behind the counter anymore?

Have you ever had to deal with thickly sliced deli meats? How was it? What did you do?
