It was posted by a dude I went to high school with who is supposedly in the food service industry training to be a chef

I can't fathom a reason why anyone in the world would possibly give one iota of a fuck

I don't understand the OP's point

What's wrong with corned beef and cabbage? That shit is good, son.

Do you expect more from someone training to be a chef or something?

Because that's one of the basics you're taught in school...at least I know we were taught how to make corned beef.

If he was deft at grammar would he be a line cook at a restaurant?

I imagine the op is talking about how someone in the food industry should know how to spell simple foods.

Maybe he's talking about 3 different foods.

Come enjoy corn, beef, and cabbage.

I hate that we're all trying to figure this out lol

For the record, I've never seen it as St. Pattie's day either. Patty's, yes.

This dude always struck me as pretty bright in school but that was a long time ago. I guess I was just surprised that someone my age would be ok posting a sentence like that for everyone to see.

^ Have you seen the internet?

I don't think they do a lot of informal writing assignments in culinary school. I don't give a shit as long as I can have some of dat 100% corned beef.
