Scott and SadieIn today’s edition of “What in the Actual Hell,” an NYC steakhouse is serving up cranberry sauce priced at $195 per dollop. That’s right, folks—a condiment most of us begrudgingly slap onto our Thanksgiving plates just got the luxury treatment. Why? Because apparently, some people have more money than common sense.
This gold-plated berry goo is the brainchild of Hunt & Fish Club, a restaurant known for catering to people who think $30 cocktails are a steal. According to the geniuses behind this culinary atrocity, the sauce is infused with Louis XIII cognac, Japanese yuzu, and balsamic vinegar that’s been aged longer than most marriages. Sure, it’s fancy, but is it good? Does anyone even like cranberry sauce enough to justify that price tag? Or is this just another dick-measuring contest for the obscenely wealthy?
Here’s the thing: expensive doesn’t mean better. It just means you paid more for the same crap with fancier branding. Remember when people lost their minds over $1,000 gold-covered chicken wings? Same energy here. If you’re shelling out $195 for a dollop of tart berry paste, you’re not just rich—you’re a sucker.
Let’s hear from you, readers. Would you try this pretentious cranberry sauce? Or does the canned stuff do the trick for 89 cents? Share your thoughts in the comments below, and let’s collectively question humanity’s life choices.
