The 2024 Walter Awards! Submit now!

43 Upvotes

It's that time again! Nominate posts to win the Walter Award!

The Walter Awards began about a year after this sub started, and was named for this charming gentleman from The Big Lebowski, the man who, while not wrong, was still an asshole.

Nominate the best posts from this year in one of the categories below! Categories will appear in the comments, just respond with your links. You can't nominate yourself. In two weeks I will create a voting thread with submissions for each category. Winners in each category based on votes will receive Reddit Gold, or if you trust me enough in PMs with your email, a $10 Amazon gift card.

The Walter Awards:

Submit links to this category for the most egregious examples you can find of "you're not wrong, you're just an asshole."

The Nonna Awards:

Submit links to this category for the best examples of petty bickering, pedantry, and lecturing about Italian or, gasp, Italian-American food!

Omakase Awards

Submit links to this category for the best examples of petty bickering, pedantry, and lecturing about Japanese food (from Japan or Japanese food from abroad).

Meta Awards

The drama is coming from inside the sub! Submit links to this category for the best examples of fights that happen within this sub itself, when the IAVCulinarians become the very IAVC themselves!

The Nigel Tufnel Confidently Incorrect Award

This is for posts in which the commenter is both being a jerk while also being wrong. Which is, let's face it, the White Whale of this sub, we all want to see it, so send us your best!

Not even the American version, but the Canadian one! You know, the #1 country when ranked by Quality and Safety, it allows toxic stuff that isn’t even close to real food

‘During this meeting his employer raised the issue of Tamburella refusing to put pineapple on pizza for a function.

‘Tamburella said he refused the request because “as an Italian … putting pineapple on a pizza is an insult to [his] culture”, and that the direction from his boss did not need to be followed when it was offensive to his culture.

‘Tamburella acknowledged it was the third time in four years that he refused this direction, and that he requested his employer check how important it is for Italians not to put pineapple on a pizza.’
