“Homemade” is a Misleading Term
Ah, that familiar feeling when you peruse a restaurant menu and spot a tantalizing dish adorned with the magical word “homemade.” But here’s the inside scoop: that “homemade” label isn’t always a guarantee of a fully handcrafted meal.
Sure, sometimes it’s the real deal, but on occasion, eateries take a shortcut by incorporating store-bought ingredients and then jazzing them up with their own distinctive seasonings. Technically, they might not be fibbing about it being homemade, but it’s safe to say there’s a bit of a culinary lost-in-translation moment for the unsuspecting diner.
