    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!”
