Growing up going to church potlucks in the deep south in the 80s, i have vague memories of canned pears with miracle whip and shredded cheddar cheese on them. It's definitely been done by old ladies.

Used to have that with some frequency when I was a kid, yes. You will be unsurprised to discover that I grew up in the midwest.

I think it is just lighting issues with "wet" or reflective foods. Like look at this, it is the same dish, the pictures taken seconds apart, one just has the flash on and one does not.




The flash one looks greasy as gently caress while the non-flash one looks fine. I think it is possible to make currys/stews/other wet foods look decent, but it is far harder than trying to make other, non wet foods look good.

Yeah, a lot of afp is the camera I think. I have some pictures of pulled pork I made a couple weeks ago that actually don't look like that first picture because I at least tried to light it correctly.

I think the stroganoff picture looks really good, I mean you can look at the sauce and tell it's a legit sauce not some bullshit.

You're right that it looks awful, but if someone put that in front of me I would be delighted.

That stroganoff was good as gently caress, she used real heavy cream and better quality egg noodles. I'm gonna have that for my birthday meal now.

I started this thing in grad school where I referred to lunch as beantime because I ate mostly beans all the time and about noon I'd stand up and yell "Hey, what time is it?" and my office mates would start to answer and I'd interrupt them with "IT'S BEANTIME!" and eventually they caught on and stopped playing along except to sigh and go "It's beantime, Henry," or just try to ignore me. I still call lunch beantime so this picture really meant something to me, thanks.

My mom used to eat this. She made it for me a few times but I preferred pears with cottage cheese or eaten from the can with my fists like a small naked bear.

She also made baked frozen fish fillets with mayo or Miracle Whip slathered over it a quarter-inch thick. It actually wasn't too bad, baked, with lemon juice and mashed garlic mixed into the topping.

peaches and pears with cottage cheese is fantastic. Pineapple, too. Was at a restaurant one time, ordered some cottage cheese as a side and it came out with a pineapple ring on it, one of my friends freaked out. He'd never even heard of pineapple with cottage cheese, thought it was bizarre and awful.

The solution is large curd cottage cheese, which is like regular cottage cheese but even more baller.

Cottage cheese is great, I have no idea why it grosses some people out. Sometimes when I want a light meal I'll brown some sliced garlic, toss in some spinach until it's just cooked (sadly can't eat it raw), and place it on top of some cottage cheese.

Ahhhhhh, gently caress, Elise. I have ENOUGH issues WITHOUT brain cancer. Why'd you have to ruin my night?

Oh, I think cottage cheese tastes unappealing and looks like something that would come out of something lanced on one of your patients. Does this mean I am terminal?

That "Eat The Trend" thing has got to be the most obnoxious AFP thing imaginable. Half the time, it's just fine... you know, boring poo poo like how to make unicorn-colored ice cream or imitation Starbucks drinks, maybe a recipe for alfredo or something. But usually when it pops up in my Facebook feed, it's like "HOT CHEETOS MIXED WITH PHO, WRAPPED IN A BURRITO, AND DEEP FRIED. SERVED WITH SRIRACHA-WASABI RANCH MAYONNAISE". Or "deep fried ice cream served in a bubble waffle cone with marshmallow sauce, pocky sticks, cotton candy, and the entire thing is dipped in chocolate and frozen"

I'm all for the occasional insane (but delicious) food combination, but drat, when did it become standard to just throw everything together in a trough and eat it that way?

If "does it look like a body fluid/something that could ooze out of a wound/etc" is a disqualifying factor, you're not going to have a lot left to eat or drink. Human bodies have a wonderful variety of things bored healthcare workers can compare to food. (ASK ME: About comparing fatty plasma to various percentages of milk)

Well, the texture also makes me think of that.
