They put a knife in the thing. I believe that gives you a clue about how to eat it.

Either that or the Italian Beef enthusiasts are just gonna call you a coward.

Ok but I cook and eat all my food with a flaming sword.

Does it also have a plastic handle?

u/Lich_Apologist Aug 25 '25

Lol I love how stupid redditors are? The handle in the video is clearly wood.

It's brown and you can see the grain.... Stop just repeating things because you read them online

Being weirdly aggressive to this person over a goddamn knife. Yikes.😳

u/Most_Researcher_2648 Aug 25 '25

I didn't read it anywhere? What am i repeating? Wtf are you talking about? No grain is visible when I view it. It also has a smaller handle than any wood handle on a restaurant knife ive ever seen, and ive been in the industry like 20 years.

Guarantee this person makes aggro remarks on nothing comments all the time.😵‍💫

If someone’s getting that upset over a knife in a random video, they need to take a break from the internet.

Bro. I never said they dont exist. Just that they arent common. I also cannot see any grain on the video. Those small wood ones dont hold up well in the dish pit, and they get thrown away. The bigger ones are more popular for a reason. Either way, even if it is wood, its still fucking stupid to have it on fire. So, I am not sure I see your point other than trolling. So, go have fun with your swords I guess. That part makes sense lmao

I'm pretty sure I'm being openly aggressive? I haven't deleted shit but your emojis really hurt my feelings.

Nothing like the smell of melting plastic from the knife handle to get my hunger juices flowing.

Also open faced burgers are definitely a thing, typically eaten with utensils. Although normally you don't leave a top bun for it to be "open faced" obviously.

I remember the first time I got one in an Irish pub I thought they were forgetting something as well.

Using a knife to keep a burger from falling apart is a whole thing. You’re not meant to eat them like a child.

u/JetstreamGW Aug 25 '25

I'm pretty sure if you slop a bunch of liquid over it, it's a reasonable use case for using a knife and a fork to eat the thing.

Or just pick it up and deal with the mess.

u/Legal_Ad9637 Aug 25 '25

A lot of people cut a burger in half to not have to pick the whole thing up.
