ARRGH so here I am starving in the middle of a lunchhour meeting with no lunch...so I sneak onto campusfood.com to order some food. Decided I'd give Two Paisan's a try because I tried some of a friend's fish dinner from there and it was great.

So I look through the menu online and decide on a "Paisan's Plate", described as 2 cheeseburgers, fries, and mac&cheese salad. I figured that would be good for lunch and dinner so I'm set.

Well the delivery guy drops it off, I head up to the conference room, open up the box, and...

OMGWTFBBQGARBAGE!!!

I've just been garbage plated! It was not described as a 'garbage plate' on the menu, I guess I'm supposed to assume this since I live in the Ra-cha-cha?

Oh well, its food, and I'm hungry, so I'm eating it. BTW that plate is piled 2" thick.

Well yeah, it looks like someone ate two cheeseburgers, fries and macaroni and then BARFED it all back up!

Taste is surprisingly good though...I'm finding hints of Tobasco sauce in it and I like Tobasco sauce.

NO NO NO!
It said "two cheeseburgers, fries, and macaroni salad". I thought 'macaroni salad' was a separate item (very common.) It even ASKED me how I wanted my cheeseburgers COOKED (I chose medium well.) It didnt' say "cheeseburger salad" or "garbage plate" anywhere.

Anyways, I've finished eating and it looks like I still have 3 meals left in this box. Maybe if I find some stray dogs on the way home they might give it a sniff?

 
what is it? the pic isn't clear other than "box of food"

i would eat "box of food" , i am not picky

Beef? Check!
Cheese? Check!
Fries? Check!
Macaroni? Check!
Ketchup, mustard, hot sauce? Check! Check! Check!

This was *OFFICIAL* garbage plate *CONFIRMED*! It doesn't have to be from Nick Tahous' Hots to be a garbage plate. He didn't even invent it (he just makes the best, or so I hear.)

I just picked at it some more for dinner and there's still half left. Funny thing is it tastes different coming out of the fridge, but still good. No need to heat it up. The fries don't get that yucky oily taste that most old fries get. All the other stuff in there 'preserves' the fries!

I guess I can say I am a fan of the garbage plate! Still don't see how you can eat this more than once a year though...one plate will feed me for 2-3 days!

I only had the famous Nick Tahous garbage plate once when I lived in Rochester. It might have tasted better because it was 1AM and I had been drinking though. 😉

I've seen a skinny guy go through 2 plates in one sitting. I use to be able to finish one plate with bread and all. Now I'm a sissy. Can't even finish one.
 
I go to college at Brockport, and the only garbage plate I've had so far was at the dining hall, and it was absolutely disgusting. It had cubed potatoes and beef cooked in some disgusting vinegar sauce, and that was pretty much it. That looks a little better but still messed up.
