"People with 'bad' food taste..." you do realize is entirely subjective? 'Bad' according to who? No food is 'bad'. Certainly health impact can vary depending on what you eat, but I would say different strokes applies very much to food.

Further, people's tastes do change over time. Some of the stuff I enjoyed as a kid, I can barely touch now, and other things I swore off, I eat regularly now.

No it's not, we all have guilty pleasures, but, bad food taste, is just bad. We all evolve in our food taste as we learn more, but good food taste isn't subjective.

Genuine question for NO natives. If it's sacrilege to eat at Chipotle in NO, how is it even still open? Somebody must like to eat there right enough for it to remain open and it can't just be out of towners eating there.

It's not that. It's just when you arrive the first meal gets talked about. You should do something of the culture to be indoctrinated into the fan base. It just looks better. He could have requested any dish he wanted just make sure it's at a "NOLA" restaurant.

It’s a broader question of local culture vs suburban living
Even when I lived in Denton, tx, I was able to find 3-4 ‘local’ haunts that I preferred so much more than say the vast chain restaurant wasteland of something like Richardson, Tx
If you’re in a city where chipotle or outback are your best options, that’s completely sad
But if you move to a place and don’t bother to actually integrate into the culture, you’re just a permanent tourist
And that’s just problematic on a variety of levels

I haven't seen Derek Carr say anything except the right things about the city and the fanbase since being here. Despite some absurd behavior by the fans...

The fanbase gets mad at Aaron Brooks for smiling/not caring when something goes wrong. Then they get mad at Carr for getting upset when things go wrong. He's in his first year here and a huge group of people put in the $$ and effort to build a giant float to ridicule him?

It would be like them having a "Thanks for no Super Bowl, Drew" after the '06 season

Sorry, still classless to target Carr. It'll be old news by the time the season comes back around but it's not cool.

I don’t think anyone outside of Brees, Bush, Cam, and Demario Davis, and a handful of other guys are off limits due to what they brought to the city post Katrina.

Carr might get there one day.

He could eat at Taco Bell, Taco Tico, Rallys, wherever.....if he wins that's all that matters, I honestly don't understand how this garnered so much attention (which I'm now adding to of course).....
