I sort of want to try carbonating tomato soup or stock or something, just to play around, but I'm not sure how to clean it out after.

I think it says not to do that because they want you to buy their syrup. To be fair though, I think if you tried carbonating something that was too thick, it would probably explode. If I still drank booze I would totally try doing white wine.

I know someone who carbonates wine in a soda stream. The verdict is that it can be very messy if you gently caress it up but worth it.

A Pennsylvania friend of mine made me try grape jelly on a fried scrapple sandwich. It was just the worst thing. A little ketchup and some hot sauce on it instead is the way to roll though. Was delicious.

I posted this way back, but Pennsylvania Dutch food is almost uniformly terrible due to having next to no seasoning in it whatsoever. Even scrapple, which is basically a pig-face paté that should taste great (and does outside of PA), is often disturbingly flavorless. PA Dutch desserts can be pretty stellar across the board, though.

Judging from my experiences, adding jelly to things that do not (should not?) contain jelly is a non-white people snack. In fact, in one case I've only seen black people in the south do it.

Order any breakfast sandwich at McDonalds in the south: "Grape jelly with that?" "umm, what? No."

I actually tried it once on a bite to see what the deal was, and it tasted like jelly where jelly doesn't belong. To each his own, I guess.

Any jelly-on-savory-breakfast-sandwich people itt care to explain?

I've lived in and around lancaster for most of my adult life and I can't agree more with this. I don't know how you can get baking down so amazingly and just utterly fail at any sort of savory dish. A scrapple omelet shouldn't be the least flavorful egg dish I've ever had

I think these are called different things depending on where you get them, but pan or range fried hot dogs with swiss cheese and strawberry jam is surprisingly awesome. They were called Moon Dogs at a local hot dog place that didn't last because of its lovely location and how overpriced they were (moon dogs were only like 2.99 but for a regular sized chili dog or Chicago they were almost $4)

For canned stuff, I'd just take it to a steam trap at work and warm the cans up. Just crack the lid first. Wait and hour or so and eat out of can.

He did it way, way too fast. Short bursts of the CO2, and then when it finally burps you let it settle for a few minutes, and then very, very slowly release some pressure. It doesn't explode if you take your time.

Seattle. I've never seen it at a grocery store (and I've looked) but I've noticed it a couple times at boutique stores and Pike Place Market. I just don't want to pay the jacked-up novelty price because I'm not a: a tourist or b: a wealthy tech drone.

Some people seem to have an irrational disgust for mixing sweet and savoury things, but it's actually really good. Pineapple on pizza, for example. Or toast with jam and cheese. Or a ham and apple sandwich.

Everywhere I've seen "American" dressing served, it's been ranch or some sort of mayo-based concoction.

Ranch is the most likely culprit. It's a totally American dressing, pretty well unknown outside the states. Personally I find it bland and pointless.
