Stay Away From These Foods At The Buffet

Everyone loves "all-you-can-eat," but that doesn't mean you need to eat it all — and it's worth keeping this tip in mind before you go back to the buffet.

What have you found to not be worth it at buffets?

[RW-btex]

If you are worried about all that, stay away from the buffet . It's just more for me .

[imlovely]

The fact that we get free food review videos on YouTube by Mashed is truly a gift. 👍👍👍

[Duubly]

Saying the fried food might not be cooked to temperature doesn't apply to places that purposely overcook their food to avoid that very thing!

[Alverant]

Golden Corral still has great chicken tenders despite being friend and cheap.

Buffets were huge in the 90s and early 2000s I feel. I haven't really seen a buffet restaurant in ages around where I live. After getting heavily into home cooking and watching enough culinary media, I can't in good conscience ever go back to one unless it was something like a Brazilian BBQ place where they bring hot skewered meats around to your table and have a limited salad/appetizer/side dish bar going on the side. Those are pretty pricy though and saved for special occasions. Overall, if I'm going to binge eat for a few hours, I'd rather do it with the specific foods I love instead of being offered an assortment of things I'll regret eating hours later.

I miss Kentucky Fried Chicken buffet 🐓

[JohnHausser]

Fried food ? I only eat it when it’s high quality 🫡

[Yormsane]

Anyone else here miss Sweet Tomatoes and Souper Salad?

[SaidThoughts]

Should stay away from buffets in general I'd say.

[billybandyk]

I really miss Big Boy's Buffets (Breakfast & Salad Bar).

[DasDutchman]

Y'all must be eating at a crappy Buffet !

[MatthewTheWanderer]

JFC this was a profoundly ignorant video! No one who goes to any kind of buffet gives a single damn about nutrition! No one cares if the food is healthy or not at a buffet! If you are telling people to "stay away" tell them to stay away from buffets altogether! Normal people only go to them rarely, if at all!

[davidmccarthy]

Buffets have dwindled around us and the prices went up enough that we'd much rather go elsewhere. Haven't been to a buffet in nearly 15 years!

[billybandyk]

Avoid fried food @ a buffet? Only if UDK the quality of it.

[_Gold_Coins]

Don’t you mean stay away from the buffet?

I started avoiding all buffet style joints over 40 years ago as I don't trust them to either cook properly or hold foods at the proper temperatures properly. Add in everyone who is parading by the food with every potential illness known to man and I decided once I could choose where I would eat for myself that I didn't need to experience food poisoning that badly. Nowadays I tend to avoid all restaurants out of reflex anyway as well. I can cook better than most of them to start with and if I don't want to cook I'll make a sandwich and call it good instead of taking the risk.

While living in Spain, 30+years ago, I was told, that one of these buffets was employing night shift workers, who separated all left overs and put it all back in the trays. Later in the USA, I saw, how dirty and sticky cooking oil, was reused all over again in very reputable Downtown restaurant.

Big fan of vegetarian buffets. They're often less expensive since they don't have to worry about power-eaters gulping down pounds of crab legs, they've got fewer common sources of food poisoning, and they tend to try a little harder to impress, because their target audience isn't going to show up for a baked potato, bread, and some white rice.
Fried pakora or seseme balls beat soggy french fries any day.

Isn't this a repeat of a similar one run a couple of months ago? Oh well, just the same old stuff telling people how and what to eat. Way to go Mashed.
