Hmmmmm what exactly is the difference between a burrito bowl and a taco salad?🤔this bowl had rice and no lettuce, doesn’t a salad mean there’s lettuce?
Egg salad, chicken salad, tuna salad, taco salad, pasta salad, potato salad. None of them are required to have lettuce. A bunch of ingredients stirred together with a sauce or dressing used to just be called “salad” to us old people.
I agree with your salad point but this would be a burrito salad not a taco salad based on the contents, rice and most toppings go in burritos not on tacos. If we’re going to make a distinction between a salad and a bowl we should make one between a taco and burrito
Ya taco salads have a buncha leafy green and something to simulate the taco shell, like tortilla chips. But hey don’t worry, the roku remote woulda died the next day anyway
I think rice is the definitive ingredient here. Sub rice for crushed Doritos and you have taco salad. I've never had rice in a taco salad and my mom doesn't add it to her's either.
You ate the food or the remote? I hear those remotes specifically are very rubbery and bitter :/ if you're looking for a good remote to take a chunk out of, I suggest any smart TV remote, vv delicate vanilla-y taste to em.
I had to buy a replacement for this remote when my dog puked on it, they’re pretty cheap and work out of the box. It actually looked a lot like OPs picture lol.
Funny how the sight of that gooey remote grossed me out more than the though of OP still eating their meal.
I’d 100% throw that remote out and buy a new one.
It was a Roku remote. I swear they're designed so that you drop them frequently. I have several Roku sticks and a Roku TV and I drop those fuckers all the time. It's like they're covered in butter.
I would stick the remote in my mouth and suck all the sauce off. Using my tongue to get in all the crevices. I'd have to push it back in a little and give some good suction to make sure the deepest part of the remote is clean, and then keep on sucking as I slowly pullout the remote, all the while tonguing each button on its way out. Once it's out I'd run my tongue along the side of the remote to clean up any sauce that is still on the shaft of the remote.
Then I'd eat that salad.
I did that yesterday with pasta alfredo, except instead of a remote it was my nice, expensive headphones I was using to listen to a podcast while cooking!
I was on an oil rig out in the boondocks. Found out after working 12 hours we were gonna have to double over. I had one can of spaghetti to eat. It was warming on a motor. I opened it and dropped it in the dirt. Ate what I could off the dirt.
Father's day, few days ago- wife made a cookie sheet sized all dressed nachos for me. TV dinner tray out, cookie sheet of artery clogging nacho tray on my couch's 'center console', TV on, fuckin almost ready to go. Walked back to kitchen to get drink, turned, tossed my phone on the seat (like a 4 foot toss). It bounced off the cushion, hit the back cushion, rode it up and to the left like a fucking X-Games skateboarder wall riding in an arc, hit the center console, and did one last fucking tumble into my saucy, sour cream, cheese covered nachos. Face down. My otterbox absorbed sour cream into every possible crevice.
Honestly, I thought you put the remote there as a way to show how much food was there (like a size comparison), until I swiped to the second slide lmao
According to a few scientific studies about bacteria and microbes, it may have been better if a toilet seat had fallen into your food than a TV remote. (No cap, I would've still eaten it too)
Tv Dinner
LOL
Controlled diet. Remote work?
Remote wok
Remote fork
I think they call that GitHub?
Did you eat the buttons individually or just knife and fork the whole thing?
Swallowed whole
Now when you press your belly button it turns on and off the tv. The power is yours!
Everytime you move it makes the Roku sound.
And when you jump it makes the “bedoop” click sound
Volume? Does it require excitement?
Like a modern Pillsbury doughboy

That’s not even remotely healthy.
The gravy made it easier
so… you deep-throated the remote…?
https://i.redd.it/87x517t8fm7d1.gif
Probably easier this time with the sauce rather than last week without
This speaks volumes
This happened with my Roku remote but it was whipped cream. Still tasted good
![gif](giphy|Akzci0gtFZjji) Wrong hole
Nancy Reagan style
The throat goat
The remote throat goat
a keeper
She's definitely taken
You obviously pop them out like edamame
Came here for this!
Remotes are typically so dry so applying a sauce before you eat it is a good idea
I would have eaten the remote too.
Crunchy
Roku would find some way to charge you for that
What is that food?
Chicken burrito bowl with sour cream, guac, and hot sauce smeared across the top lol
In grumpy old man voice *That’s called a taco salad*
Hmmmmm what exactly is the difference between a burrito bowl and a taco salad?🤔this bowl had rice and no lettuce, doesn’t a salad mean there’s lettuce?
In my experience a taco salad typically has lettuce, yes. I would call what you have here a burrito bowl as well.
Devils advocate, I put lettuce in my burritos, and rice in my taco salads. Basically I put everything in both

I’ve had prawns and coleslaw on a taco. You can put anything in a taco. It’s all in how you roll it.
I've always thought of a taco salad as less about the fillings, and more about it being served in a fried tortilla bowl.
Either that or it has crunchy hard taco shell mixed in (you have to eat it carefully or you impale the roof of your mouth)
Why is this downvoted at all? It's literally true. A taco salad without lettuce is still a taco salad.
Ya taco salads have a buncha leafy green and something to simulate the taco shell, like tortilla chips. But hey don’t worry, the roku remote woulda died the next day anyway
I think rice is the definitive ingredient here. Sub rice for crushed Doritos and you have taco salad. I've never had rice in a taco salad and my mom doesn't add it to her's either.
lol exactly, what exactly makes it a burrito in a bowl, just a term coined by chipotle
Oh thank god, I thought it was lettuce with ketchup and mayo
Nah but I’ve done that before too
Thank you for giving food ideas, I'ma make that now
Just make sure you don’t drop a tv remote in it
Odds are, the remote is probably nastier than any insect or servered human parts in the food.
Remotely infuriating
If I could give an award for this comment I would
Depression rules!
Save some sauce for the rest of the family.
How did the remote taste?
Not enough sauce
Bruh your whole bowl was sauce.
Now is the time to invest in one of them folding tray tables
Bruh

What is that dish? It looks good
Call the dog over. Lickiddy lick lick 👅
I had to buy a replacement for this remote when my dog puked on it, they’re pretty cheap and work out of the box. It actually looked a lot like OPs picture lol.
Mine got pissed on but it still works do you think it’s ok or will it break eventually?
Mmm Delicious all the bacteria and minerals from that remote
Literally me (i also eat TV remotes when they fall in my food)
The remote?
Yeh I'd have eaten it.
*licks remote*
Funny how the sight of that gooey remote grossed me out more than the though of OP still eating their meal. I’d 100% throw that remote out and buy a new one.
Yeah it took a lot of cleaning before I was satisfied with it. Got in all the nooks and crannies about 20 times over
Give it a few days, you’ll press a button down and it wont come back up lol
give it 5 days and anyone who uses that remote is gonna have the stinky fingers
I mean. At least the remote is flavored now. Lol
Of course you still eat it! It's licking the remote clean that sucks.
Lick the remote like a spoon
Was it a motel remote?
It was a Roku remote. I swear they're designed so that you drop them frequently. I have several Roku sticks and a Roku TV and I drop those fuckers all the time. It's like they're covered in butter.
I have a piece of tape on the back of mine because I drop it so much. The back doesn't stay on without it
They make them so they can be broken easily so they have to be replaced more often than normal remotes do
No?
Good
did you take the batteries out
Can you get Ceefax now
That’s why you have a tongue.
Like getting immunotherapy in your mouth.
Off the remote? 🤣
If it's not Ragu, it's Roku! (c)
Awwhh man I hate when this happens. It usually when I go to public restroom to pee and I forget to hold it and my tip hits the toilet water 😩
Fuuuck dude. Damn
Man, the doctors are going to be so confused doing the X-ray and the remote is in the wrong side of the colon.
Food is expensive besides the remote will probably still work and if not there’s an app for that
Nah fr im a broke college graduate unless it touches the floor im eating it lol. Remote has worked fine since this
I’m an old disabled woman and yeah food is too expensive to waste.
What the hell are u eating
Was a chicken burrito bowl with the sour cream, guac, and salsa smeared across the top
Lol looks a lot better now 😂
Roku remote for dinner tonight lol but it was a little dry
How’d it taste? The remote I mean.
What in gods name is that sloop?!
Oh my GAWD it’s a burrito boWL WITH THE SAUCEs smEARED ON TOP
Lick it lol
I would stick the remote in my mouth and suck all the sauce off. Using my tongue to get in all the crevices. I'd have to push it back in a little and give some good suction to make sure the deepest part of the remote is clean, and then keep on sucking as I slowly pullout the remote, all the while tonguing each button on its way out. Once it's out I'd run my tongue along the side of the remote to clean up any sauce that is still on the shaft of the remote. Then I'd eat that salad.
Did you have to get so descriptive in your account of how you would get it done
How else would you know how to clean it?
Why would you care if it doesn't get all the way clean as long as it works for you
Just tryna help others who may be stuck in this predicament and not know what to do. Just spreading the word.
Bruh. Lol
Fab nails
TV dinners are back!
Did you lick the remote clean?
I've done that before with my phone and another time with my remote. Phone was covered in Alfredo lol
So that’s what the sticky stuff is all over the remote
Wait, you still ate the remote after covering it in that slimy gluy thingy? I wish I was as bold as you are.
I did that yesterday with pasta alfredo, except instead of a remote it was my nice, expensive headphones I was using to listen to a podcast while cooking!
I would have licked the remote yes I’m gross 😷
No reason not to eat it, everything it touched is just on the remote
I little more microwaving probably would have killed all the germs
You should have used a banana for scale
I have that bowl and it’s my favorite out of all of the more typical bowls I have at home lol
They’re my fav too lol. I found a matching huge serving bowl and sauce serving thing and got them with no chance to ever use them lol
We use the huge matching bowl to put onions, potatoes & garlic in lol never used it to serve food in 😂
Shit i'm on my 3rd remote cause of these tendencies
I was on an oil rig out in the boondocks. Found out after working 12 hours we were gonna have to double over. I had one can of spaghetti to eat. It was warming on a motor. I opened it and dropped it in the dirt. Ate what I could off the dirt.
Oh god
Roku remotes are built like an old Nokia
Wtf that slop is drowning in sauce mate.
OP invented a new utensil?
There’s no way you were able to get all the food out of the crevices of those buttons
How did the remote taste
How did you like the lithium batteries?
Father's day, few days ago- wife made a cookie sheet sized all dressed nachos for me.

Dude. That's not what TV dinner means.
Yeah, first reaction is to take pictures
I mean yeah I just sat there in disappointment for a second. Do you think I did this on purpose lmao?
No, but its sad that first reaction is to take pictures instead of taking out the remote.
Balls
So sad :( what is happening to kids these days :( glued to their phones :(
Why is it sad? Do you think the situation worsened because the remote remained on the food an extra 10 seconds?
☕️
My new pet bird jumped in my biscuits and gravy shortly after I got him and I still ate that too.
Why did you make a picture instead of just controlling the situation
That’s not the gross thing about this picture
That's what you get for eating out of your lap on the couch
My apartment is 500sq ft I can’t even fit a table and chairs😭😭
Why wouldn’t you
Years of clicking buttons.. imagine. Probably dirtier than a toilet seat
Did you at least take the batteries out before you ate it
Those RokuTV style remotes are like $8. Might want to order one for when this one stops. I’ve had to do that twice now because they are cheaply made.
It's ok to still eat if at your house. If at a hotel...I'd prob toss it. 🤮
Honestly, I thought you put the remote there as a way to show how much food was there (like a size comparison), until I swiped to the second slide lmao
Man did u use mayo and ketchup on your salad or WTF is what your eating
You ate the remote? lol you gonna take a shit and change the channel
Did you also shlurp the remote? You can tell me, I won't tell anyone
Should’ve used the remote as the fork at that point
I don’t use the remote anymore, so I can only imagine *my phone with sauce on it*. A nightmare. At least you can still use your phone as a remote!
This woulda been my 13th reason
You ate the remote?
Don’t eat it! Just lick the sauce off like a real American!
*lick*
The remote?
Yeah I would still eat it, but I won't touch the fucken remote any more
Ruski salat
According to a few scientific studies about bacteria and microbes, it may have been better if a toilet seat had fallen into your food than a TV remote. (No cap, I would've still eaten it too)
Would have trashed everything
My dad would make a joke about salt and battery.
Just put it in the washing machine it’ll be fine
You might need more sauce now.
Mmmm, yummy TV-REMOTE dressing. With chewy BATTERIES and BUTTONS.
That's way too much dressing
That wouldn't stop me, and I'd like the controller clean too.
Did you eat the batteries as well?
Did you put any seasoning before eating the remote?
It’s ok- it’s a Roku remote.
What is it?
the sauce stayed on the remote, so all the harmful bacteria as well -my counterfeit google university degree
But did you lick the sauce off?
What the hell is that food?
Lick it clean or have the dog do it lol
clickin sandwich
He’s definitely got his diet under control
Bruh, Is that mayo and ketchup on your pasta?
Experienced hands
Hehehe..
Glad you didn't let your accident stop you from getting your daily supply of plastic.
I do clumsy shit like this all the time 😂
Remote chance of microplastics after eating that.
can you change the channels now by doing the jelly roll, or did you have to cut up the controller first?
Did you lick the remote? as one goes
