Yes!!! Where are you David!!!
I feel like the batter will just slip away from the onion when you try to
pull it apart.
It does
so…. it’s blooming onion?
Just came here to hear ‘oh yes’
I basically automatically trust any sauce that is that color… I don’t
know why.
My fav part is Oh Yes!!?

Immaking it now omfg
U guys didn’t even give creds to outback’s blooming onion
+Shapoot yeah it used to be called awesome blossom but outback took it and
renamed it and everything
Blooming onions have been around for quite a while. The first original
maker is long gone, no credits are needed.
That’s a blooming onion where did they get the lotus from
There is no such thing as a bloomin’ onion in Australia
Cough coughpopsugar foodcough cough

Early af
Outback Steakhouse
Whats the name of the song that they used? its really nice!
+Timothy You ever heard of the description?
+Timothy Music had a very ‘The XX’ feeling. Soundhound and Shazam couldn’t
pick it up however. If you want something similar check out The XX – Intro
look in the description
My friend and I are attempting this later today! Now the only thing I was
curious about is why the recipe mentions oregano when the prep list and the
video don’t.
Can you make deep fried cheese curds? Ones that look like the Minnesota
state fair cheese curds? Please!!!
The tune in the background sounds like a song but I can’t tell what.
anybody know.
“public demand”

+PewPewGrrr thank you I couldn’t work out what it was.
Sounds kinda similar to Intro by The XX.
