Grazing tables are all the rage. What does DataLounge think?

Frauey as fuck

Ewwww

Keep your fingers off my food, asshole!

All I see are diarrhea and food poisoning.

Pigs at the trough.

That's one way to give every guest at your party salmonella.

It's called monkey party.

See the flock of fraus descend upon the grazing table! They do move in herds!

Isn't this normal for the majority of cultures in the world?

Bunch of fat, lily-white, middle-American Fraus think they're inventing the wheel.

Very popular with folk surnamed "Hogg."

The hell you say!

But no one wants to dive in the middle!

Why not just set the table up in the rest room too?

Mormon frau vlogger bullshit.

On the toilet tank, please, R12. I want to sit reverse cowgirl so I can graze and shit more efficiently.

Why try and arrange it when it will just look like you opened everything and dumped it on the table?...

I only like it if there are cute little shovels to scoop up the food

Fuck anyone, e.g., r11, who posts from The Paywall Street Journal. Just fuck you with a roll of those Carr Water Crackers, still in the box.

Calm the fuck down, R17. You can read the entire article without paying. I did, and I'm no subscriber. Add some Xanax to your grazing table.

Disgusting.

When does the shit flinging begin?

What a beautiful spread for one. Where do you put the food for guests?

Gross and awkward

You're welcome.

Grazing was all the rage in 1992. Is it back again? Or is this past trend just now filtering down to the fraus?

Did they invent a buffet?

[quote]Did they invent a buffet?

No, they're just too cheap to use serving platters. Can you imagine one of those tables, half an hour in?

What if you want something in the back?

Couldn’t they have gone to the trouble of plating a few pieces of tiered serve ware, to provide a little variety?

Lol at the marquis lettered announcement in the corner of OP photo. Classy!

I say go for it. Bottom shaming, be damned!

Hepatitis, the gift that keeps on giving.

At least do it on a more attractive table!

How is this not just a buffet?

This is like the millennial “IKEA hack” of buying an unfinished dresser and painting it. People have been laying “all the food out at once” forever. This is not a new thing invented on Instagram.

[quote]At least do it on a more attractive table!

And if you are going to use human tables, at least do it in a more attractive venue.

Shhh, Fraus in the Mist.

So basically you have to throw all the leftover food out at the end of the night. Who in their right mind would try to save any of it? Given rampant obesity, straight up feeding troughs are probably next.

I don’t save any snack food after a party even if it’s fairly untouched. Nuts, cheese, crackers etc. Too many hands in them.

Too late, R35. SNL went there decades ago.

Troff 'n Brew

Prescient, R37. Kind of like the Simpsons with Trump.

Ina "Queen of the Cheeseboard" Garten is going to be livid that she was one-upped by the grazing table. What will her stylish gay friends think?

I’m vomiting in my mouth just thinking about it. Dear god.

I honestly don't know anyone who would eat that. Completely unappealing.

r32, a buffet has food displayed on platters, trays, serving dishes, etc., and not just laid out on a piece of dirty old burlap that's been god knows where, or made in China out of god knows what. A buffet also provides serving utensils and dishes and flatware for diners. This mess purposely encourages people to just grab the food with their hands and shove it down their gullet and go back for more.

Horrible, if I am serving a buffet I will stick to serving platters and chaffing dishes. If I attended a party where this was presented, I would turn around and leave. Serving platters are not expensive, you can purchase nice looking fake silver ones at the Dollar Tree, so even being poor isn't an excuse for this crap.

This and a toilet chair and we're almost there.

Tacky.

Disgusting.

Someone wanted to photograph food and invented this bullshit to hang an article on it. Such horseshit. Nobody does this.

Unsanitary and distasteful to be sure. Speaking of which, R40, where else would you vomit in or from? Do you have myriad options for expulsion?
