Did anyone actually find out what “The Rock” cooking?

Not sure if this needs to be somewhere else, or if its being a troll. But its kinda obvious it doesn’t really belong in GQ.

**RunningTheDivision** , it’s not clear what this is in reference to, but it doesn’t seem to be appropriate for General Questions. Since I’m not sure which forum is most appropriate, I’m going to close it. If it is about a TV show or movie, open a new thread in Cafe Society. If it is a simple factual question, you may open a new thread in General Questions but with more context so it’s clear what it’s about.
