When I was a teen working at Little Caesar’s, we set up a giant elastic band in our back door, and would launch our expired dough balls at the Burger King drive-thru window across the street. Then they’d call us and yell. Fun times.
LMAO… I would have loved to see them flying through the air!!
At least they didn’t pour it down the drain.
Wouldn’t the water running just break it up and dissolve? Also the temperature outside in a metal dumpster is likely a lot better for proofing than down a drain in the ground with added water. At least I hope, because I know water/flour cakes up and is a pain to clean sometimes
It was the yeast they could do.
Yeah, they really had to rise to the occasion here. Some people would have disposed of it irresponsibly, but I guess they’re just bread better there, although whoever left it in the sun must have been baked.
When the Sun
Hits the dump
Full of big yeasty clumps
That’s a dough-ay
They must have felt like a regular Glutenkhamun after that.
Despite the afermentioned possibility about inhibition its deflating to see how we treat things we don’t knead.
Doh!
That’s not enough dough.
So how do you get rid of old dough?
You paint it orange and make it president.
Shit I can’t breathe
Dumpster diving again there bud? …baker tosses in another batch of ever expanding stuff.
Salt it. Salt blocks yeast.
Cook it first
Make some pancake
If you let it fully ferment it’ll turn into a flat goo
Flush it down the toilet
PSA: Kidding aside, never do this.
What would happen?
Yeast is anaerobic, meaning that it doesn’t need access to air to metabolize sugars into CO2. So it’s not gonna stop expanding once down the drain. Add to that the very sticky dough surrounding it, and you basically have a recipe ideal for clogging a sewer drain.
You can make dough liquid by adding water.
Imagine if you shoved a tampon into the dough ball.
You’ll piss off the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
This is like the start of a horror movie.
The Blob (1988)
I might take inspirations from those images for creature design.
2025 mimic just dropped
Pictures you can smell.
First time I’ve looked at a dumpster and thought “I bet that smells delicious”
Really? Excuse my ignorance but I thought baker’s yeast doesn’t smell that bad?
To be fair, he didnnt say it smells “bad”…
Raw pizza dough smells nice
(and tastes nice, although i’ve heard you have to be careful now with salmonella in the flour, even though it doesn’t have eggs)
Pizza the hut ate himself to death in there !
Pizza the hut lives!
Weird thing to do to a cybertruck but I’m down
With the heat from the sun hitting the dumpster too, hmm. That might actually be how they make theirs down the road.
if the dough is unusable then there’s really not much choice about what to do with it. I suppose you could partially cook it before tossing it, but that’s a high cost option with regards to time, energy usage, and oven space.
Add twice as much water, stir until liquid, toilet.
I’m imagining imagining world’s worst fatberg and then doubling it after resting.
It hungers.
I wonder if this was the inspiration for the 1993 Mario movie
These look like props from a Troma film.
So the early 90s movies were telling us the truth about ooze after all?
New eldritch horror: incomprehensibly wide yeast dough
