In this episode, Brandon has an idea with multimillion-dollar potential:
Lowercase numbers!
We, humans of the 21st century, are the proud consumers of such a huge variety of products and experiences that it would make a cornucopia blush. And yet ... we're all just resigned to one single way to write numbers. What's the deal?
So, yeah, we blow our horn of plenty a bit about the creative and financial opportunities for this new invention ... before Brandon drops the inconvenient truth.
But that gets us thinking about the way cultural innovations come in and out of style, which leads us, naturally, to the announced closure of "the world's best restaurant," Noma.
Where will foodies get their reindeer penis now? ask some of the wags in the media, who wouldn't know a good fricasseed reindeer penis if it came served in a hollowed-out antler enrobed in fermented goji berries.
News of the closure did allow for some soul-searching: Is this the death of fine dining? No ... but really? Like — fine dining?
A lot of the hoohah revolved around labor conditions at Noma and elsewhere. But the more existential question lurking under all these stories, and in our own heads: Does it really matter?
Tuck in your locally foraged napkin and sit down for a mental meal with us. When the check comes, don't freak out about the price, but think about how much more interesting those numbers could be.
NOTES
FOX News always has the best comments section // Bon Appetit talks "unsustainability" // Euronews on Noma // A bit from Hulu's "The Bear"
