Aspic would like a word.
Every rage bait tik Tok and YouTube “cooking” short: am I a joke to you
I actually tried bacon wrapped banana once a while back, tastes amazing.
But did you have it with hollandaise sauce
No, that’s insanity
As tradition demands
My mother did that shit all the time. I distinctly remember one time she tried to make spaghetti with calamari. She had never cooked squid before so we ended up eating what tasted like tomato sauce covered erasers.
Hi! Spaghetti con calamari is a very legit italian recipe and very good too.
It’s only a matter of following the right recipe but in south of Italy pasta&seafood or fish is very common.
I had some fantastic clam pasta dishes in Naples.
I also had gastronomic consequences that were major health events.
That’s too bad, I would commit crimes to eat my grandfather’s calamari with red sauce again
This is what white culture looks like. You wonder why we are culture thieves lmao I would be too if this was what o grew up on
Italy, France, Spain, Greece…
We kind of had to start from scratch again after a generation of Great Depression cooking was followed by a generation of “It’s in a can and claims to be edible”
Not Polish culture! We’ve got… cabbage!.. and um… nah that’s about it
Kolaches! Which look like beige lumps with goo on top.
Pierogi! Which look like beige lumps with goo inside.
Bagels! Beige. BYO goo.
Tuna and waffles doesn’t sound too bad
Most of these are from the 50s-60s. There is a really great article about why/how we got there with canned soup & jello everything…super interesting.
That being said…fuck all that shit…barf.
I don’t have the article to share but it said that during ww2 the food industry has to overcome a lot of challenges to feed the troop. It cost a lot of money in research and as the war stop, most of it was useless. So they try to sell those recipes to civilians has a convenient way too cook quicker. They succeed because a large proportion of women worked for the war effort and kinda like the financial freedom.between the lack of time to cook and the modernist hype those war recipe thrive. Kinda like to get the link tho.
Also Gelatin was a really laborious process (aka, luxury) until jello came along, and yeah the total convenience thing. The whole era of convenience foods producing some amazing barf is something else.
TIL SpongeBob’s house is an 80s food crime.
“Depression but with a weirdly high amount of energy meals”
What’s even going on in #19? I see lemon wedges, what looks like okra, maybe, and then…raw ground beef? Surely that can’t be right.
It doesn’t look raw, it looks like sloppy joe
#4 “Frankfurter Pie” isn’t so bad. It’s just sausage and sauerkraut with some bread under it.
That was one of the more edible looking ones I saw
The egg curry is quite tasty. I don’t think their recipe is going to be as good as an Indian version though.
TIL you can just eat any goddamn thing
technically, yes
i still don’t reccomend cyanide tho, it has a really bitter taste
The almond smell is to die for.
cyanide doesn’t smell like almonds, it’s more of a pool chlorine smell that irritates your nose
#21 Gives me ‘Eye of Sauron’ vibes.
I found a book of 70s Italian recipes and half the dishes were stuff like vegetables encased in a ring of aspic jelly.
Better veggies than larks tongue I guess
Better then crunchy frogs?
As long as it’s garnished with lark’s vomit.
A lot of these were designed just so wife’s could get back at their husbands. As a child of the 50/60s I frequently suffered collateral damage.
