Is that... ripe, pan-fried plantains and bacon jam on a... biscuit? scone?

If so, absolutely would. But that plate is for like a table of four. It would be hideously rich.

My Mom made, and called it exactly the same thing, so that term has crept as far north as SW Ohio where I grew up. When my wife and I were on our honeymoon in Europe, I saw "goulash" on the menu in an awesome back alley restaurant in Vienna, Austria, and I said, "drat, I'm famished I'll have that". My head literally exploded. Moving out of the, um, "agrarian" part of the state was the best loving decision I ever made in my life. If I hadn't, I would've gone through life thinking "goulash" was macaroni, hamburger, and the cheapest spaghetti sauce you could find (minus cheese, of any kind, which was an abomination unto the face of God). And I wouldn't have met my wife, either.

It's far worse in reverse. I spent the first decade of my life in a soviet-occupied Eastern Bloc country where we had actual goulash (of questionable quality, no doubt) quite often.
As a teenager I came to the US as exchange student. The first time someone tried to cook "goulash" there I thought they were loving with me. It didn't help that the person was averse to using any spices at all, salt included. They also didn't like breaking up the meat as it cooked so you'd end up with giant clumps of unseasoned ground beef in your bland macaroni.

That's actually 50% Peppermint Schnapps, and 50% DeKuper's Chocolate-Cherry liqueur. It's pretty high octane stuff, so if the glass isn't finished, we keep it in the fridge so the alcohol doesn't evaporate off. I guess we should've at least covered it though.

This is a taste crime. Why did you make a chocolate Robitussin cocktail.

In my house goulash was peas, corn, egg noodles, onions and chicken in a "cheese" sauce. The sauce was usually one of those big rear end glass jars of queso blanco cheese dip. It was pretty white trash delish.

The worst meal my mom made was poo poo on a shingle or some kind of hamburger helper meal, both were bland as gently caress and so gloppy disgusting. Her cream of mushroom soup chicken was a close third on the scale of gloppy and bland. My dad wasn't a veggie person so we rarely had green stuff. And vegetables were limited to like, potatoes, corn and peas.

If you wanted something made spicy, you threw red pepper flakes on it until you were content.

e: That reminds me, there's this gigantic open-air market nearish Sacramento that I used to go to and they had some little Chinese stall that sold a really basic stir fry of onions, cabbage, noodles and chicken. I have no idea if that stuff was loaded with MSG or if the veggies were just that good because of arriving fresh at the market that day but I would buy a plate and cover it with red pepper flakes and eat it as fast as possible, it was so loving delicious.

I had never heard of any of this growing up on the west coast. In college I studied abroad in Budapest and naturally ate a ton of actual Hungarian goulash. Years later a co-worker who was originally from Wisconsin brought some "goulash" to an office party. I've never been so disappointed in anything in my life.
That reminds me of how in West Germany, Jägerschnitzel is traditionally a breaded veal cutlet with a mushroom cream sauce, while in the East it's a breaded slice of sausage with noodles and mass-produced thin tomato sauce. If you go from one part to the other without knowing that and visit a cafeteria, it can throw you for a loop.

drat, I really feel like I lucked out with parents that can cook. My mom is originally from Ohio, so we had a couple weird midwestern dishes that made it to the table on occasion, but I don't recall any of them actually being bad, and she knew how to use the spice rack. I actually get a little nostalgic for her ambrosia sometimes, or that cranberry jello salad she'd make for Thanksgiving.. and for the longest time I couldn't understand kids that don't like fruit or vegetables because I'd never had a gross veggie in my life (okay except maybe brussels sprouts, but I like those now) until I went to someone else's house for dinner.

Conversely, my husband hated pretty much every vegetable except broccoli when he was a kid, and just the other day realized it's probably because he's never had canned broccoli. He likes most vegetables now, but there are still a few he has hangups about. Meanwhile, most of my food hangups are from my dad straight up telling me not to eat something because I won't like it (usually spicy foods), then later trying to goad me into trying new things. Like, it wasn't malicious or anything, but drat there are a lot of things I thought I'd never like just because I'd never tried them before, and if I've never eaten it, it's because I don't like it. :psyduck:

It was biscuit French toast with bacon, caramelized bananas and whipped peanut butter.

Really good, but if anyone could eat it alone in one sitting, I don't wanna know about it. My leftovers were enough for two more breakfasts.

It may rhyme, but "no salad as entree" seems pretty far from liberté, friend.

Also they didn't put the accent in entrée, after so carefully using it elsewhere. Lazy work on this AI-generated menu.

On second look, A CHEESE is a pretty strong contender.

e: aw man, the forum doesn't do the spaces. Generally: I've seen plenty of printed materials where the letter spacing was just bad, many where it was merely inconsistent, but this is the first one where the only appropriate term is arbitrary.

My roommate and I reference this constantly because her whole family is the most Minnesotan people ever when it comes to spices/flavoring of any kind. Meanwhile we have an entire cupboard devoted entirely to herbs/spices/salt varieties.

When I visited my parents for Christmas, I saw their spice drawer. I'd say about 2/3 of the jars in that drawer had never been opened and still had the plastic seal on them :negative:
