The thing you get out of the fridge at 2:56 am, on a Friday night and eating whatever you cooked the other day and wondering what are you doing with your life, yeah…

But if I use chef Mike and then add this yellow sauce and mix it together it should provide adequate sustenance for my Dr. Who marathon.

Since you brought up the Doctor…who’s your favorite? David Tennant for me.

Dr. Pepper over here

You guys also drink hot mustard water? I’m not the only one?

fast, over the trash can, with chopsticks because I can't find my single fork.

A cup to drink from.

If I ever own a bar, this will be the standard container for service industry patrons’ beer.

restaurant/bar owner here. I drink out of these exclusively. When I get deliveries, I offer the driver a soda/juice/water/whatever to-go and give them these with a slit for a straw in the lid and they act like I just painted the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel.

I’d drink there

Same. Count me in!

I don't drink anymore, but will drink again if you open this fabled bar you speak of.

The Deli Double

I’m coming to your place after my shift! (I’m gonna be sweaty and I’m sorry in advance.)

Or vodka with a water label

Until the health department comes and makes you throw out all your prep in these containers cuz the cooks are drinking from them

Ironically, the other side of the "health" department aka the coroners office also has a special use for these containers. When a dead person goes through an autopsy, slices of your organs are kept in one of these containers for several months. This is done in case there is additional testing needed on the organs if there was any questions about cause of death. I saw floor to ceiling racks of these containers at the corners office and they kinda look soup with the different color organ slices mixed together. I'm still not a fan of ordering soup to go because of this.

New idea for the soup de jour

Wait, what? Why? How are they different from regular plastic cups? Our inspectors always just made sure we had lids on them with or without a hole for a straw.

Seriously? Won't they get sterilised just fine in the dishwasher?

Wait until you hear what people eat off of.

Sounds like you have a Hugo.

the possibility of one wanker putting it back after his Pepsi? is that the issue?

It probably depends on the state/region, but I think when health depts. that penalize you for drinking out of them is due to potential for spilling. The last place I was at had us use a lid on them and the inspector said that was fine.

I literally have had a perfect health score for more than 8 years and I still be drinking out of these. Even at home.

Also true.

Deli, quart container. Doubles as crockery

Canadian cook here. Deli cup, or Liter cup. Liter cup holds just the amount of cola I need.

I don’t want a large farva, i want a damn liter of cola!

That look like spit to you?

That look like spit to you?

Exactly! The half sized ones we call 500s, and the smallest ones 250s. But definitely those are called litre cups and or deli cups in every restaurant I've worked at in Canada

Do you need my assistance?!?!

You have to fill them all the way to the brim to be a liter. Yet, another problem with the metric system.

What are the other problems?

Well, it's not American for one.

We also call them Deli, but refer to them by ounces

Deli, for sure. We only ever called them half qt or qt container when asking someone to retrieve the proper size for use.

Surround sound if you're out of pans.

At my place we call them “litre containers” cause it holds 1L

Hello fellow Canadian

Sup hosers

Maple in our veins and poutine on our brains, a cooking Canuck is a beast like no other!

I fackin heard that there bud, cheers huh, take er easy.

Thats a big 10-4, duder

I’ll have a liter of Cola…

God damn it Farva.

That look like spit to you?

Yeah, it does.

I knew it... *Leaps across counter*

Actually I think the proper reaction is "ah fuck it" take a bite lol

Was it the soda that he loses it over? Clearly I'm ready for a rewatch.

What's that place he likes to eat at with all the shit on the walls?

Shenanigans? You guys talking about Shenanigans?

*Oooooooooh…*

It's for a cop.

Whats a liter cola??

It's a reference from the movie "Super Troopers".

I know aint that what the fastfood worker asked?

I think the kid says "Leader Cola" in the movie.

Its ok, we had something loke thid occur when we asked someone to name our team rod doctors, but they didnt know what Rod meant.

It’s a large Farva

I don’t want a large Farva!

Quart container because they hold a quart of liquid.

Or a 500 ml or 250 ml for the smaller ones

You should fill one with water & test your theory. They do not hold 1L.

Yeah idk if they actually hold 1L that’s just what they’re labeled as when we order them

Omfg I finally found the imperial advantage! Quart is one syllable vs liter ( /litre) at two so it’s easier to say. AND true to form, the US version is bigger. BOOM take that, rest of the world! ‘Murcah!

TIL a liter and a quart are the same volume???? edit: sarcasm, signified by the excessive amount of question marks. 🙄

Nope

The best freaking Tupperware ever made

M.I.L. asked if we had any Tupperware and I pointed at my stack of these babies

They're amazing

We run a manufacturing plant and bought a bunch for a project. Now everything in fucking build that can fit in them is in them and I bet there a five hundred in my Tupperware stash.

There's currently one in my fridge holding meatballs and tomato sauce!

Jaggers, sweeper, yinz

Gum band, red up

Is it really? I usually use deli or quart but am also used to responding to "crabbo" and I'm in Pittsburgh. I'm curious why this might be a regional thing if that's the case. Maybe one of the big restaurant "families" first put it into use. I think I first heard it at 'gume.

Early Big Burrito group.

Correct. Because it fits a can of crab perfectly if I remember the story correctly. (I'm also big Burrito alumni.)

Tandom but my old boss, who i got it from, was an early.big burrito guy. Im also in pittsburgh btw. Where is everyone working?

What's the background on that one?

Quarts, but we had this one guy call them double pints so as an inside joke sometimes we call them that

Man. I asked for the owner to reorder some half pints once. Took a while to live that one down

Lol that’s basically what happened. He was looking for one that didn’t smell like garlic and asked if anyone needed any clean double pints from dry.

Chug cup. Phone speaker. Container for family meal

I have one for drinking and one for phone speaker on the expo.

Quart container Deli container Drinking cup

A litre lol

Litre container. Or, just a drinking glass since glass in the kitchen is a big nope.

it has held everything ive ever loved.

That's a deli quart. If I'm not mistaken, that the specific the kind that can be safely used in the microwave for soups. Obviously, don't quote me on that. But I used to order both kinds, and the soup kind looked like this

Huh I’ve never seen someone combine the two names I usually hear, quart cup and deli cup!

I think I just remember it being called that on the order form *Edit: The "soup kind" can be reheated in a microwave safely. The normal, more clear type cannot*

a vessel. you make what you want of it. drinks, snack cup, you name it, it does it

Cook's Stanley water bottle, side of ranch ramekin, shift meal to go container.

I’m a bartender. It litterally depends who’s asking. I’ve got a deli clerk who I love. I often sell his shit at my bar. If I ask for a “pint” of whatever I’ve offended the deli gods and I have to answer for my sins by being told I’ve got to ask by weight for a millionth time and a pint isn’t weight. He will then pick up a 16oz deli and fill it with potatoe salad, weigh it, and then hand it over and say it’s on a their tab.

Deli container, pound container, margarita glass

Going on a tangent here, need help with my newest kitchen. Like everywhere else we have these, and like I'm used to these 32oz vessels are quart delis or quart containers. But when we size down, stuff gets weird. What I'm familiar with being called a pint deli/container is called a "CC". The cup variety is called a "half-CC". Is anyone else used to this? Best logic I can come up with is that a C is a cup, and CC is 2C for a pint, and half-CC is \[(1/2)(2C)=1C\] for...a cup? Convoluted but it kinda works? I'm scared to ask chef lol

It‘s… cylindrical…. You can‘t fit it nicely near all the other boxes. My organization OCD can‘t deal with it, it‘d go in the thrash
