Tell me what this is so I can make it, or sadly acknowledge to myself that I can't eat that.

I'm making this next time I wander into HT with friends, tipsy, and with a spare $5 in my pocket because this thread is where I get bad ideas. Well, I assume that's terrible macaroni salad on a bad mozz stick on baby spinach on a flour tortilla.

Wow, you made that way more complicated than it needed to be in any possible way.

It's a fish taco.

This looks just about like the meal I was served at my (former) favorite Mexican restaurant last week on a trip back up to the Midwest. Good god, it was so flavorless I honestly thought I'd done something to break my tastebuds. Having been born and raised in the Bland Belt, I'm no stranger to food that tastes like nothing, but this somehow transcended blandness and entered a sort of ethereal neutral zone of nothingness. I'd take a bite and feel nothing--no temperature, no spice, no flavor, no...nothing. It was like eating room temperature water.

Thanks for listening. Here are some bad Mexican foods for you all to enjoy. Namaste

Read this thread before going to bed last night and had dreams about loving up someone's order at the restaurant I work at, and I don't even take orders there. One of my coworkers wanted tacos and they came with a giant side of green peas, which for some reason were served in the baskets we normally use for fries. Then one of our regulars was there and she was hysterical because she ordered her tacos with NO PICKLES and the cooks put pickles on there. I helpfully pointed out that the cooks were probably just really confused because she requested no pickles on an item that doesn't actually come with pickles.

Then I woke up and realized we don't have pickles in the restaurant anyway so what the gently caress.

The tacos kind of looked like this and were totally vile.

That looks like "smooth" food. It's heavily processed for people who have problems chewing and eating.

It basically all has the texture of instant mashed potatoes, making it very easy to eat, but it turns out people were happier with it molded to sorta look like food instead of identical scoops.

Stop reminding me of when I was a dietary chef. I busted my rear end to make tasty food within the rules, but, then, to help the "mechanicals", I had to process everything, usually with added cornstarch.

That's what I do now, though most of the time I'm out front in the bistro. Rather than the room service line. The saddest things I've seen were pureed french toast, pancakes, pizza, and grilled cheese. The most awful looking are salmon and tuna salad. :gonk:

Speaking of AFP dreams, about a month ago I had a really awful dream in which I had to eat a bunch of raw horse eggs. They were big and brown and leathery, and instead of the normal egg situation they were full of countless small individual yolks rather than one yolk surrounded by the white. They smelled awful, like rancid meat and plastic. Plus they were from male horses, and for that reason they were known as "dearth eggs".

I keep remembering that dream and getting viscerally grossed out to the point of almost physically gagging. Also it's weird that my subconscious mind knew the word "dearth", but pretty much every other aspect of this situation is weirder than that.

It looks like their patent covered the molds which would make it difficult for anyone looking to make that shape, if it was before 1989 when the patent expired.

They might have patented an easier way since, but anyone would have been able to make Pringles the original way for nearly 30 years. Sticking them in a can has been similarly up for grabs since 1987.

It's not as bad as it looks. When you see that orange tint in person, your mind prepares you for cheeto and cheez-wiz flavors, but it's actually sweet, salty, and very heavy. It doesn't taste overwhelmingly cheesy, but you can tell there's cheddar in there.

SA has this weird humbling effect. I can read a post like this and think to myself "I remember living in a trailer in the middle of nowhere, being fed squirrels that I was told were chicken. I remember later in life staring out the window at the desolate Alaskan wastes while I munched on those cardboard-tasting silver dollar pancakes you get in a huge bag for like three bucks. I remember gagging on Aunt Felicity's Calico Hair Casserole every Thanksgiving. I remember eating a hamburger with chocolate and peanut butter cooked into it. Yet despite all the miserable food experiences I've had, I've never lived in a tent and eaten garbage, and for that, I am thankful"

I mean, I got kicked out of my house and so instead of couch surfing I found friends that would let me squat in their backyard for several months until my student loans kicked it. It was actually super refreshing to pair all my belongings down to basically nothing and live really simple for a while. So not really hardship just whitepeople.png
