Fearless...

Agreed about the bone. But then why not just buy a bone-in strip and not mess with the filet side of it at all?
I have done that and more often ordered bone-in strips at a steakhouse.  Unless I ask the butcher to cut strips that way they aren't usually available.  Especially at the Grocery.

Usually there's only one T-Bone in the bunch that has a decent size filet, and the rest might as well be a bone-in strip.

I was a super picky eater as a kid. Super picky.

Then I got to college and realized I would be too embarrassed to be that weird about food around new friends. I slowly realized you could learn to eat anything if you tried. That doesn't mean I don't prefer some things, but everything is in range.

Also, at some point in college, I realized I ate just a ton of beef and tried to do less of that. I've gotten pretty good at avoiding it unless there's just nothing on the menu that I want that doesn't have it, or something I REALLY want that has it.

I wish prices were reversed for beef and pork

nothing wrong with a good cut of pork, but beef is just better

I do know a couple guys that won't eat birds of any kind.

Won't touch chicken, turkey, goose, or duck.  But they will eat eggs.

A woman in her upper 50s in our office makes herself hot pockets or pizza pockets about 3 days a week.  I find that odd.

The wife and I stopped at a nice looking place in the Camargue for lunch a few years back.  (The Camargue is sort of a French version of the Okeefenokee.)  Sort of.  Anyway, I'm think we're near the Med, I'll have fish, and I see "seiche" on the menu and ask he what it is and she replies "A kind of fish." so I order it, only to be surprised.

A buddy of mine calls clams and oysters and whatever "helmets with buggers", which is what comes in a typical French dinner called "fruite de Mer".  Had that once at Mont St. Michel, which by the way is worth seeing.

The wife likes fish eggs that they call "caviar" for some reason.  I am a bit partial to escargot if they are good and not rubbery, they can be like bad squid.  The French also have a panache for stinking cheese.  They have more than 365 kinds of cheese generally referred to by location location and something else.

The also of course are partial to organ meat like cow brains (sweetbreads, I forget what they call it) and kidney and liver.

Of course down south we eat weeds cooked in a pressure cooker with "streak-lean".  Collards, turnip greens, you name it, plus corn bread with chitlins, or chitterlings.  We also eat something called "barbecue" which is where one takes a less than choice piece of pig and cooks it at low T for hours and hours.  I know northerners think barbecue is what you do to a steak by they are sadly mistaken.

Yeah, I still can't believe that southerners actually eat chitterlings and pigs feet. 
(Although that's not sounding so bad all of a sudden, after that breakdown of the French cuisine)

I cringe when I hear people say "I'm having a BBQ tomorrow" and if I'd like to come. I ask about the kind of smoker they use and what kind of rub, etc. Then I get a look like I have 3 eyeballs or something.

It's not a BBQ, dumbass. You're using a grill as part of a cookout. Loser.
U RAH RAH! WIS CON SIN!

pigs feet aren't bad, there's meat there
Chitterlings are to be used as casings for meat, not eaten without being stuffed with sausage
