Cuomo's favorite book.

The Wuhan coronavirus lockdowns have produced the spectacle of politicians unilaterally deciding what businesses are essential, what products these so-called essential businesses may sell, and -- now in New York -- which foods are considered "substantive" for purposes of selling alcohol.
In New York, as in many other states, bars are required to have food available as a condition for selling alcohol. But during the current lockdowns, Gov. Cuomo made a new rule requiring patrons to purchase a food item in order to purchase an alcoholic beverage. The requirement is reportedly aimed at reducing curbside boozing during the coronavirus pandemic.
Bars struggling to stay solvent during the lockdowns are now being told by the governor which of their food items are considered to be "substantive" foods and which are considered to be mere snacks. And according to the governor, chicken wings don't make the cut.
"To be a bar, you had to have food available - soups, sandwiches, etc. More than just hors d’oeuvres, chicken wings. You had to have some substantive food — the lowest level of substantive food were sandwiches," Cuomo said during a briefing on Thursday.

obviously worried about being INDICTED for the
MURDERS of Hundreds and Thousands (or not worried
since in NY, crime is rewarded, innocents are killed
and raped, making it a GREAT DAY for Wilhelm).
What about “Cuomo Fries”?

ANDREW CUOMO TO THE RESCUE!
There’s something wrong with that boy.
Unless you serve vegan food you’re not going to open
Just.
Meat.
I consider it a full meal (with some sauces being healthier than others).
For a long time my friends joked that if it weren't for the celery and carrots at BWW, I wouldn't eat any vegetables, and to be honest that's not far from the truth :-)
To Evade Pre-Prohibition Drinking Laws, New Yorkers Created the World’s Worst Sandwich
NEAR THE END OF THE 19th century, New Yorkers out for a drink partook in one of the more unusual rituals in the annals of hospitality. When they ordered an ale or whisky, the waiter or bartender would bring it out with a sandwich. Generally speaking, the sandwich was not edible. It was “an old desiccated ruin of dust-laden bread and mummified ham or cheese,” wrote the playwright Eugene O’Neill. Other times it was made of rubber. Bar staff would commonly take the sandwich back seconds after it had arrived, pair it with the next beverage order, and whisk it over to another patron’s table. Some sandwiches were kept in circulation for a week or more.
Bar owners insisted on this bizarre charade to avoid breaking the law—specifically, the excise law of 1896, which restricted how and when drinks could be served in New York State. The so-called Raines Law was a combination of good intentions, unstated prejudices, and unforeseen consequences, among them the comically unsavory Raines sandwich.

How about Fredo Fries. I’m smart, not like everyone says!
Not really.
Il Duce was rumored to be infuriated by the Cuomo Chips thing.
He really is a thin-skinned expletive-deleted.
No matter that small biz all over the state are dropping like flies.
I can count the number of small businesses in my neck of the woods that are rebelling on the fingers of one hand. The rest are knuckling under. For all the good it will do them.
Cuomo's favorite book.
A hot plate, two pieces of bread and a slice of America cheese should fix the problem. Well unless Adolph Cuomo declares Grilled Cheese is no longer a Sandwich. Don’t bet against it.
As for the sandwiches thing...a suggestion for bars:
Get some loaves of Pepperidge Farm Party Bread, Jewish Rye - 12 Ounces. They’re inexpensive. Stick a slice of pepperoni between a couple of slices and voila! You got yerselves a sammich.
You can call it an Il Duce with my blessing.

Typical of a bureaucrat who has never held a real job, they love to micromanage what they know nothing about.
Both Cuomo’s could use serious good Ass whoopings.
Not that Id ever advocate for that just saying it may help them both.
Sometimes my favorite dinner out is a couple of appetizers and a drink!
When I lived in England a few decades ago (as a student!), all types of corner stores, etc., sold old-fashioned bread and cheese or ham salad or whatever sandwiches wrapped in Saran wrap for about a buck apiece. Cut on the angle and stacked in the wrapper, simple as could be.
These poor bars could make a dozen fluffernutters, or whatever, from a basic loaf of bread for about 20 cents each.
He must be pushing for Cuomos meatball hero. Maybe he will write a cookbook for bars.
Where I live (Buffalo NY) people eat chicken wings as substantive food both in bars and at home (delivered).
I guarantee you, nobody in Buffalo considers chicken wings below sandwiches on the substantive food scale.
Yes, they are “casual” food, but filling and desirable as a meal (with celery and carrot sticks, and absolutely blue cheese dressing).
Reminds me when carpet-bagger Hildebeast blew into town and kept referring to us in the western NY region as “the people of Niagara.” NO one ever uses that term here or even heard of it.
Like Il Duce, totally out of touch , arrogant, condescending and STUPID.
