Was upset with cheese.

I’m trying to decide if the reporters or videographers try really hard to come up with these one-line captions, or if they don’t.

Here’s some context, if you must have it.

Big deal. Lots of people are lactose intolerant.

This is no laughing matter. She did seem pretty cheesed off about the whole ordeal.

Oh, it’s much more important than that. I have eaten the old cheese of which she speaks, and it was marvelous

I don’t understand how someone can eat at the Potato P atch often enough to notice a change in the cheese. Yinzers gonna yinz

You forget, yinzers are deathly afraid of change, and take “Who moved my cheese?!” very seriously....

It’s a Gouda thing they changed back, otherwise there Colby a riot.

They changed from Heinz to Hunts earlier in the season too and Yinzer were up in arms over that as well.

Knowing Kennywood she probably was legitimately upset with cheese but still a hilarious caption no less.

user314 > ttyymmnn
08/22/2019 at 14:40

Aw yeah. Cheese on a stick, an order of Potato Patch f ries, a Pepsi, and a Double Header ice cream cone, or maybe some funnel cake .

Kinja'd!!!

I was there a few years ago, but did not know the park changed hands. We had a great time, and the fries were awesome.

As they should be. Anywhere else, and nobody would have noticed.

user314 > ttyymmnn
08/22/2019 at 14:51

T rue, but then again a couple laps of the park burns off a lot of those calories.

“I’m pretty passionate about my cheese. I knew immediately. They changed it. Ruined my day. Everybody was complaining about it,”

Her day was ruined by having a different brand of cheese on her fries?

user314 > ttyymmnn

Dunno why it took them so long to think of it, but those fries will be offered from the concession stands during Steelers games this season.

That must be one big fucking parking lot.

ttyymmnn > user314
08/22/2019 at 14:57

That’s why we stopped at Dairy Queen for a dipped cone on the way home.

ttyymmnn > Chuckles

Clearly, you’ve never had the Potato Patch fries. If you had , you would know. It would be sort of like ordering a rum and Coke and getting a rum and Pepsi.

ttyymmnn > user314
08/22/2019 at 14:59

BUT WITH WHICH CHEESE??!!?!11?

412GTI > ttyymmnn
08/22/2019 at 15:04

I haven’t been there in a few years so I laughed, would never had noticed, but the new owners sure aren’t having a good year trying to cut costs!

Chuckles > ttyymmnn
08/22/2019 at 15:04

If I ordered a rum and coke and was handed a rum and pepsi, I’d shrug and drink my drink. It's still cola.

You are correct, I have never had potato patch fries. I live in PA, but I live in the half that knows that my can of pepsi is called a soda, not pop.

The park itself occupies 80 acres , lots 1-3 probably another 80 or so.

user314 > ttyymmnn
08/22/2019 at 15:07

Damn, see now you’ve gone and reminded me how much I miss DQ’s butterscotch dipped cones, not to mention the Rax that used to be across 837 from the park...

user314 > ttyymmnn
08/22/2019 at 15:11

The right kind , and Heinz ketchup; they’ve been very emphatic about t hat. I’m pretty sure bringing Hunts into Heinz Field would be like combining matter and antimater...

These Pennsylvanians think they live in Wisconsin or something?

user314 > Chuckles
08/22/2019 at 15:22

Mind you, this is on top of ongoing staffing issues, resulting in long lines at the various concession stands and rides. They also got rid of the Sweeperettes (employees who would wander the park with a broom and dustpan) a while back, so the park is anywhere near as clean as it used to be.

Chuckles > user314
08/22/2019 at 15:25

It sounds like there is a lot more going on here. My original point was just to remark upon the absurdity of someone saying "my day is ruined because they used a different brand of cheese!" That is a seriously first world problem.

The Ghost of Oppo > Chuckles
08/22/2019 at 15:28

What blows my mind is this fry stand is exclusively inside a theme park. How often is she dropping $50 on a ticket to get fries

Chuckles > The Ghost of Oppo
08/22/2019 at 15:31

If you go to a theme park full of rides and games, and your day is ruined because of subpar cheese fries? I feel like you aren't making the most of your day at the theme park.

I thought this was weird then I saw it was PA and it all made s ense.

ttyymmnn > user314
08/22/2019 at 16:27

And parking was free when we went. I doubt it still is, based on what I’ve heard of other things.

I thought she was going to go Ammental on them, which wouldn't of been Extra Mature of her. Leicester forget about it now.

WilliamsSW > ttyymmnn

I’ve never been to Kennywood, but it seems weird. Granted, I don’t really eat cheese fries ever.

ttyymmnn > WilliamsSW
08/22/2019 at 16:49

What’s weird, the fries or the park?

When I was in college, our dining hall had a few different food lines, one of which served nothing but hamburgers and French fries. On the nights that the regular line served hot roast beef sandwiches, I’d go to the HB line and get a huge plate of fries, then cover the whole pile with beef gravy. It was really good, and probably one of the reasons I’m fat today.

WilliamsSW > ttyymmnn
08/22/2019 at 16:54

The weird to me is the freak out over cheese sauce at an amusement park. If I go to a park I pretty much expect mediocre food.

I’m just not big on cheese melted over everything- it tastes good, it’s usually overkill.

ttyymmnn > WilliamsSW

Kennywood is an old, used-to-be family owned park that was a traditional hangout for people in western PA/eastern OH. It’s the sort of place you would have gone to every summer since you were a kid and then taken your kids to. Lots of tradition, and the fries are one of their iconic dishes. So people definitely noticed.

user314 > ttyymmnn

This. Yinzers (people from the Pittsburgh area) do not react well to change.

ttyymmnn > user314

I have family in PGH but I’ve never heard that term.

Not all Pitts burghers are yinzers, but you’ll know one when you hear one.
