As always people like making money and don’t care who gets screwed. Buyer beware.

It sucks when they go so far as to brand their product with the same name because it makes it a lot harder to spot unless you usually deal with them. Atleast with other crappy knockoffs they don’t CLAIM to be made by another company, even though they try hard to make it LOOK like them…

(Like the fake “greddy” Blow-Off valves so many of you bought from this board, or the knock-off manual boost controller currently being sold).

I think I need to eat some ‘authentic pho’ because whenever I have pho I find it just tastes like water with a small amount of boiled meat and hot sauce…

Yeah I find it overrated myself too.

It’s not bad with some hot sauce, but wouldn’t keep me coming back.

Holy O/T Batman.

you morons, go to Peach Garden across from pmall, beside TD bank, its the best!!! authentic shit. the easiest way to spot fake pho, is if the noodles are not all the same size, and the noodles taste watery and u cant pick em up with chopsticks. and real pho noodles have a better texture. most pho places are opened and run by stupid chinks that bootleg everything (one of the main things we’re good at besides making t-shirts) so they usually use flat rice noodle, and cut it thinner. go to peach garden, taste their stuff, try out P22 on the menu, and you’ll know the difference in authentic veit cuisine.

if anyone want. lets go as a group. i[m craving it right now! tonight anyone?

if you think its not enough, ask for 1.5 portions which is an added $1.50 iirc.

get the special chefs choice, its spicy. forgot what its called. first page.

different levels of spiciness as requested.

50, 100, 150

i get 75.
