    I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a bottle of A1 sauce in real life. What is it? I’m American but from Louisiana and we have different sauces.

      Odd you havent seen it being from the south…but that’s probably for the better! It’s Steak Sauce. Meant to be put on steaks…it’s in all major grocery chains and usually on the tables at most restaurants serving any sort of a steak menu. Bottle is shaped like a Worcestershire bottle, but has a white label with a big A1 on it. I never cared for it so at this point couldn’t even tell you what it tastes like. If a steak needs a sauce, then it’s not a good steak.

      With that said, i’ve seen it used as a marinade ingredient, or more complex sauce ingredient- so it’ll still have its uses.

        I don’t think steak sauce is a thing in South Louisiana. Prime rib gets a horseradish/sour cream sauce. Au jus is common with steak. But we also tend to eat more seafood than beef so the standard sauces are something like Crystal Hot Sauce, Tabasco, etc. Ketchup for making cocktail sauce. (A lot of places serve oysters or whatever with a little cup of horseradish and you decide how spicy your cocktail sauce will be by adding ketchup and stuff.)

        I’ve definitely eaten more calamari than steaks. So, by no means is this a universal concept. I’ve just never seen anyone put A1 on anything.

          Fair enough! I grew up on the gulf coast and have traveled all over the deep south, have family from northern Louisiana, and my parents lived in Baton Rouge for a while- so i wasnt trying to “assume” for you! A1 (for me) is just one of those things that seemed so common i stopped seeing it and never needed to look for it! Like I said, you aint missing much, so im glad you aren’t familiar with it cause there are waaay better options where you’re at!!

      It’s a sauce you put on bad steak. Or you put on good steak if you want to ruin it.

    The law firm I work for has been tracking his EO’s, and we’ve had to put a disclaimer on our pages this week because WH office staff keep putting the wrong articles under the wrong URL’s and we don’t want our clients to think it’s us making these stupid mistakes.

    He’s literally just hiring his stupid pals and firing competent workers.

    Bro how out of touch with your colleagues do you have to be to not know it’s AI. Have you literally never heard someone around you talk about it? No one on TV? You’ve never said it aloud to someone who corrected you?

      Apparently she started out saying AI, then switched to A1 mid-statement. Might have been corrected privately before, but it only partially took.

    People seem to be missing the one positive piece of news here: She’s literate!

    The only person who would make this mistake is someone who read “AI” in an ambiguous font. I know it’s a low bar, but this means that the secretary of education is able to read.

    Secretary of Education - that would be Linda McMahon: politician, business executive, and former professional wrestling promoter.
