I find them cliche and kinda corny foo-foo. I mean, they were always the
first "real food" girls cook for guys years ago and were played up to be
special romantic meals but that was like 30 years ago. But they're kinda
ordinary tasting and IMO, a PITA to eat. Special romantic meals don't
inspire me to want to perform a disection just to get to a little
ordinary tasting meat.
