This quote has been making the rounds this week. So, of course, we feel the need to bring it to your attention. Nate Appleman -- A16 chef, James Beard Award winner, San Francisco expat, budding mini-Bourdain -- slammed San Franciscans with the following quote in the New York Times. Ahem:

In San Francisco the audience is easy. You put tripe in a bowl and tell them it's from a humanely raised cow and they're going to eat it.

What? How rude. Just for that, Nate, we're going to dive into a plate of shrimp for dinner. We're talking Cheesecake Factory popcorn shrimp too. Hrumph. (For those of you who don't know, shrimp is probably the worst thing you can eat right now, high on the red list. Think freshly-plucked veal eyeballs braised in the tears of Baby Jesus -- only worse.)

But? He does have a point.
