In the tiny kitchen of my studio, I learned to make Red Lobster’s Cheddar Bay Biscuits. They are easy to pull together—a basic buttermilk biscuit, with some added garlic powder and cheddar cheese. Making them in my home felt like a power I shouldn’t have had, a sort of magic too potent for mere mortals to wield. To have Red Lobster biscuits anytime you wanted—this was why the gods punished Prometheus.
