Is that a pipette?
Sort of? It’s a mini-baster with some Worcestershire in it. Waitress said enough customers don’t like it that they just use that. I, personally like it in there.
Caesars for the win
Thanks, I hate this.
Fortunately, the drink was pretty good.
Why do people like these?
I go through phases. Like someone else said, a Bloody Mary is a meal in a glass. It’s really different from most cocktails. I also like a Bloody Caesar, but my family calls it a Clam Digger.
In Canada, it’s just a Caesar. And literally no one orders a Bloody Marie here (Caesars are basically our national drink now). We have egregious overproduced version like the above as well. Took this photo of a menu in Vancouver.
That is equally crazy. I don’t get it. Seems like you’re getting food for the table with 1 drink.
When I ordered, the server comes up and says: we’re out of Nutella pie – can we substitute this other pie? And we basically burst into tears because it’s a cocktail topper pie slice…
Wow, you ordered that!? So out of curiosity, what other kind of pie did they offer? Or you y’all like, “No Nutella pie!? Never mind then. Good day to you!”
Can’t remember. But it was worth a picture
Makes for great instagram pics
They will save your life when you’re brutally hung over
Because it tastes like a spicy V8 and not like alcohol.
I thought we, as a society, were over this ridiculous “drinking from jars” phase.
What’s wrong with drinking from jars?

The grease counteracts the acidity of the tomato juice. I’m a fan.
Naw, dude. A decent Bloody Mary should be a reasonable substitute for a small meal.
Think about it: you’re basically dinking a gazpacho, with a shot of vodka added. The additions flesh it out with something you can sink your teeth into.
It sounds like alcoholism to have one of these instead of lunch (on a weekend), but the alcohol content is tiny compared to all of the other stuff you’re ingesting. It’s like having a glass of wine with your borcht.
Also, you mentioned having it in the airport. Bloody Mary mix tastes different, and far better, at altitude. Have your next one in the air; you won’t get all of the trimmings, either. I sometimes ask for a virgin Bloody Mary just because of how good it tastes. Something about how high altitude changes our sense of taste; there’s an article about it on the intertubes somewhere.
My parents had this stuff called stingray they would add to theirs. Made it just the right kind of spicy.

Or maybe you could benefit from a change in your definition of “meal”. Broaden your horizons!
Like I said, Bloody Mary mix is basically gazpacho, which most people consider a meal.
Was the chicken wing hanging off the side of the glass? Like was it dipped in the cocktail? I think I might try that.
Have to disagree with you on the bacon. It’s really good after it’s soaked up some of the Bloody Mary flavor. Plus celery is nature’s cocktail stirrer!

… horses… for courses…?
Literally never heard this phrase before, but it seems very similar to “different strokes for different folks.”
It doesn’t make any sense to me but I kind of love it.
Sorry but that looks disgusting.
They’re not for everybody.
What’s that plastic thing?
It’s probably a LED light.
Edit: OP said it contains Worchestershire sauce
Kinda looks like the bulb of a disposable eyedropper. Don’t know why, though.
Worcestershire
Tampon packaging
Bloody lol
It’s a bloody Mary, that one is honestly pretty tame compared to others I’ve seen.
It honestly looks like a Wish version of what you’d typically get with these. No seasoning to be seen on any of the toppings and the Bloody Mary itself looks like it was poured out of a premix container.
Yeah, looks pretty normal. A good Bloody Mary makes a decent meal all by itself.
Buy what’s in the plastic bulb, do you think? Don’t tell me it’s a little shot of beer; that’d be an insultingly tiny amount of beer.
The bulb was actually pretty cool. It has Worcestershire in it. Waitress said some people don’t like it. I am not one of those people.
Ooooh, that’s a great idea. When making Bloody Marys from scratch (almost scratch; I don’t hand-make the vegetable juice base), Worcestershire sauce is mandatory.
When you need a full-on demolition crew just to get your drink on
Don’t bring a knife to a gunfight.
I’m cutting you both off. You’ve had enough.
That’s a whole fucking meal.
Also high risk of food borne illness.
That’s what the alcohol is for: to sanitize it.
Ok the gun fight comment got me! You win, good sir!
That second pic had to be in Maryland, right?

Phillips Seafood, Baltimore Crab Deck.
Crabs == Maryland!
I’d be fucking pissed if they put meat in my cocktail
No shit? That’s a whole-ass mf chicken on there?
Why not just use the straw?
I don’t like using straws. Plus, it’s a salted rim - meant to pick up some salt when drinking the drink. Honestly, though, kind of surprised you’re the first person to point it out. I means, it’s right there in the picture!
