No amount of consent in the world would aid in making me feel as not taking part of an exploitative arrangement. That would be my problem.
Regarding bad food… I’ve worked in hospitality. It can always be worst.

Don’t think I be able to motivate myself to go to one.
It’s one of those things that sounds nice in theory but would have disastrous outcomes if ever attempted.
I think I know the concept behind Hooters and other generic boobie bars (not an american) but I honestly don’t think I could go to one of those venues and, if I went, I have serious doubts I’d be able to enjoy myself or the meal.
They accomplish that and the already diminutive presence they have in the world will shrink even more.
The Greeks were isolationists. Each city-state considered itself the center of the world. It wasn’t on their list of priorities to share or spread their culture, unless it involved complete obliteration by conquest.
So, you’re talking about the people that emulated greek culture as they viewed it as more refined than their own?
And you are correct!
I should consider having one of these made to hang on my door.
I own a few bottles of very old wine, that were gifted to me. Besides sentimental value, the bottles are worthless. But wine can be produced in order to be able to age in the bottle. I’ve seen wines, commercially available, capable of being stored and aged for up to 10 years. And as a kid, I visited a vineyard that had sealed barrels aging for more than 80 years. So, it is possible to age a wine and age it well but above all else wine is made to be enjoyed.
Next, try Portugal.
That sensitive of a palate is worth good money.
There is but I don’t think it’s worth the expense, even for a special occasion. I’d rather dive into more accessible wine and let guests discover a good wine for an affordable price than to pay more and risk passing an image that I’m trying to impress at all costs.
I read some comments and found one describing the wine as such, being enriched with caffeine. But wow!, nonetheless. That sounds just awful.
You’re preaching to the choir.
I live in wine country and even the big wineries here still do the harvest (vindima) by hand.
A good wine does not have to be expensive. I actually should not be.
I’m from a wine country and even when we have to import grapes from abroad, a reasonable to good wine parks around €3 to €5, for a 750ml bottle. A very good wine will fetch prices on the €8 to €10 price range, €12 if some reserve.
Above that, you’re buying fluff.
I laugh when someone tells me they bought some collectible wine as an investment. Sure.
As someone from a wine country: wow. That is a description of nightmare.
I wouldn’t use that even for cooking.
Today, I was the 1% getting to know something new.
This is an abomination.
I respect that.
I’m in no fashion whatsoever a prude or a moralist - hey, I admit the concept is actually interesting! - but I’m too stern to allow myself to go to a boobies bar and enjoy it with no concern on my mind. Let’s call it a personal mental barrier.
