Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

What gas will they use in the foamer?
It says they'll make exceptions for legitimate uses, I assume that includes making whipped cream. It'll probably just be much harder to legally get your hands on it unless you run a catering company or restaurant.
CO2 would cause the cream to sour as a result of it's acidity, and plain nitrogen isn't soluble enough, so it's probably not very easily replaced.
Having served time in the cuisine mines, it’s not.
It’ll be interesting to see how they gate access. Can’t send the dishwasher out to get more in the middle of a rush, hes 17. Can’t send the line, shes got charges. Can’t send the server, they’re legally drunk.
My wild guess is that they will not regulate access that much except prosecuting people that misuse it.
Feels unlikely that those whipped cream things will be completely useless or private individuals. But you never know.
