I've always fancied myself as a food reviewer. So when I heard about the latest culinary sensation sweeping the Internet and was presented with the opportunity to give theLADbible's readership a more in-depth look, I figured it wasn't something I could pass up.
Charley, a California man, has been uploading photos of his meals to his Yelp account and they've been grabbing the Internet's attention. I've not had a chance to taste the meals, but any top chef will tell you that we mainly eat with our eyes, so let's get started...

Garlic rolls or roast potatoes? Before I saw the caption, that was the question on my mind. You could say carbs are carbs, but I think it's important to have a certainty about what you're masticating before you tuck in. What's more, to my mind, these garlic rolls are a little too small and they're missing some form of condiment to prevent them becoming dry. 4/10

I've never eaten a catfish personally, but I have seen that film Catfish and, to be honest, I'm not a fan of pretending to be someone you're not on the Internet. The meal's tainted by association in my opinion. Also that shit in the bowl doesn't look good at all. I mean I'm from Yorkshire and I can appreciate gravy when I see it, but that has a kind of yellow tint that doesn't look good at all - and what the fuck is that in that bowl beside it? Dear lord. 2/10

Never really sure where I stand with broccoli. On one hand, if I was having a carvery and someone asked me if I wanted some of it on my plate, I'd definitely say 'yeah'. On the other hand, I wouldn't really enjoy eating it. Probably tastes better than its lighter cousin the cauliflower, but there again it's not socially acceptable to smother broccoli in copious amounts of cheese. As for salmon, I'm not really a fan. 5/10

Feel there's always a worry with custard, especially 'egg custard', - the problem's in the name - it'll be too eggy. Sometimes you're tucking into a custard tart and it tastes more like scrambled egg on toast. The filling in these tarts look like pure yolk and on that basis I wouldn't touch them with a barge pole. 1/10

The photography is probably letting the whole thing down a bit here. It's a bit too dark to really see what's going on. But at the end of the day a rib-eye is a rib-eye, and the lack of accompaniments means we can get straight to business. 8/10
