Hot dish and funeral potatoes are both completely delightful casseroles. Big old carbs and fat and sodium splurges. Fun. Johnnycakes are the greatest US food, fite me IRL. Greatest Canadian foods are poutine, smoked meat, and Nanaimo bars. Not all mixed together, though.

Laura Ingalls describes "sugaring snow" in one of the her "Little House" books. I thought it sounded so cool when I read all those as a kid. Inflating a recently slaughtered pig's bladder and playing catch with it like some prairie beach ball --- not so much. Just remembered : In that chapter where Pa shoots a wild pig and they roast it, she and her sisters squabble over who get to eat the pig's tail. I recall being somewhat repulsed, but also intrigued because of the way she described how it was the best part, all sizzling and fatty. Now I'd try that in a heartbeat.

I'll have you know I've studied American culture extensively and I consider myself an expert on American cuisine. And I don't just eat at high end American restaurants like TGI Fridays or Chilli's, I think your street food culture is great too - I particularly like big macs and KFC.

I'm not sure about pig's tail, but the pope's nose is the best part of a roast chicken, and apparently quite popular on turkeys. quote:Turkey tail or turkey butt has an international exportation market in places such as Micronesia, Samoa, and Ghana. The turkey tail is commonly exported from America because it is considered unhealthy and cut off of the normal turkey.[6] After World War II, cheap imported turkey tails became popular in Samoa. Because the cut is so fatty, to combat obesity it was banned from 2007 to 2013, only allowed back when Samoa joined the World Trade Organization. The meat is otherwise used in pet food.[7]

I only just learned the term "pope's nose" recently while pulling whole bbq chicken with my boss. We scarf down the oysters and the pope noses as we pull, it's our way of tipping ourselves for doing the work. She actually lamented the fact that you cant just get whole buckets of oysters or noses since it's the best part of a bird. I'll probably make her weep when I tell her turkey tails go into dog food.

They do most of their cooking over dried cow dung because there aren't any trees so everything has an old milk/burnt cow poo poo smell all the time. Also I'm shocked real Mongolian bbq/boodog didn't make it to America. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPGq9YNZ6TU

Brawnfire posted:All I know is tater tots are loving amazing I recently saw a thing that repulsed and attracted me in equal regards. Nachos with tater tots instead of tortilla chips: totchos.  The recipe I saw had a bowl that was about that big and said "12 servings" as if you're not going to make that all for yourself and just eat it like a animal. Also, I was chatting about nachos in another thread, and I mentioned that I use Doritos as a base to make them. You do a layer of Doritos, then a layer of mince beef that you've fried up with onions, garlic, cumin and refried beans, then some salsa, then cheese. Then you do a repeat of that, put it in the oven to cook and enjoy with guac and sour cream on the side. Apparently that's loving heresy to Americans, and would be considered racist along the lines of only serving fried chicken and watermelon if you had an African-American guest over to your house.

There's a place near me that does Irish nachos, which are similar to totchos but use waffle-cut fries instead of tater tots. It works way better since the fries can hold on to the toppings more easily.Plinkey posted:They all look terrible but they are pretty drat good.
