Making champagne bottles pop.
To quote one of my old sommeliers, opening a bottle of sparkling wine should be "as quiet as a nun's fart in Mass".

Food with gold leaf. It doesn't add to the taste, it doesn't add to the look, but rich people and wannabe alike love it because it has gold and they have trash taste. If i went fine dining and see a gold leaf covered food, imma send it back because it's aurum contaminated. And i said it as someone who won't ever set foot in fine dining restaurant.
Why is it an objectively trashy: it's a simplest way to appease those wealth chaser and showoff, yet it takes 0 effort to apply it and overcharging their food.
wait till you figure out that some rich people like the fact it makes their shit gold flecked

And gold leaf isn't even that expensive
A single leaf is so thin, that is costs only a little over a buck. The tiny piece of gold on your fancy food? Only a couple cents
But you can bet your ass that you will pay way more than that
wrote on last edited by [email protected]fine dining's price is loosely coupled to the ingredient cost for everything but the most expensive ones
Gold leaf is cheap yes, but they are paying for 'the experience'
Is it stupid? Yes
But not even close to the moderately stupid spectrum of human idiocy

that was salt-baes thing, overpriced, overcooked food with a little gold.
and for some reason his forearm sweat...

I have had 2 BMW's, both 3 series. The feel of the road is something very different from all the other cars I have driven.
That is why I asked if this person had ever driven one. Its one thing to judge it because others think its popular, its another thing to experience and have an opinion based on that.
their steering wheels have a special feel to it, rarely have I felt it on other cars. They say you should be able to feel rolling over two stacked coins. IDK about that but the way you can feel the little things in the road while also not feeling the full impact of a pothole or something is really a truth.
I have never spent more then $15k to acquire one, so I am not suggesting you have to spend big bucks to get into the seat of one. But if you have the chance to test drive one, you should take it. You might have a full on different opinion afterwards.

But...why? Popping the cork is fun and festive, and considering most people only have that experience a handful of times in their lives, why try to stifle that little joy?

You can buy a bottle of sparkling wine for $20.

Even less, a bottle of niceish Prosecco costs like 10 USD here(European country with fairly high alcohol taxes). If you just want any sparkling wine, there are stuff down to like 7 usd.
