Fo3 posted:Yeah, nothing wrong with maccas eggs (at least down here). If that had a slice of tinned beetroot then it would be a "burger with the lot" that any independent burger restaurant will serve. I think even maccas sold an aussie burger like that (not sure, never tried one, it could have been burgerking/hungry jacks). I don't particularly care for eggs on burgers, but I would eat the poo poo out of that eggburger. Doubly so if it had beetroot. Beetroot on burgers is magical.

Catpain Slack posted:I'm totally down with eggs but I can't fathom why you would put beetroot, of all things, on a burger. That being said, I think I'm gonna give it a chance next time I'm burgering it up. It works really, really well. You won't be sorry.

bathroomrage posted:I just liked to eat canned veggies as a kid. My parents didn't foist it on me, we had plenty of potato chips and hot dogs and baby carrots and peanut butter and other kid-snacky things in the house. Geeze, sorry my weird kid palate was so tragic. I raided the spice rack as a kid too I lived in qld when I was a kid, so during the gross, unlivably hot part of the year (90% of it) used to snack on an egg cup full of whatever veggies we had. It's pretty much the only good way to eat frozen green beans or corn. I also used to dip toothpicks into the enormous array of condiments my mother kept in the fridge to taste them over and over. Also nips of vinegars. Balsamic was my favourite. (I actually still do all of these things. And it's still awesome) Yolo Swaggins Esq has a new favorite as of 15:23 on Apr 17, 2015 |

There is actually a service that freeze-dries and grinds up your placenta for you and puts it into pills! Which I think is cheating, really. If you're going to be gross and crazy, you should only be allowed to tear bites out of it raw something something a animal. Or smear it on your face, which according to my favourite Korean cosmetic store is terrifyingly popular (sheep placenta, as if that makes it any less weird) Re: caramel chat, condensed milk caramel is legit the best thing with fruit. But make sure it's a can you have to open with a can-opener, and doesn't have a ring pull or something. That way explosions and lost security deposits lie. All the stores I can find only sell the ring pull ones and it makes me unspeakably sad that I can't make delicious, silky, tooth-hurting caramel

Captain Jesus posted:If you want to see some really weird pizza, go to Italy. You're gonna find things like plain slice with eggplant and fries on it. Pizza nazis are even more annoying than grammar nazis because unlike grammar, pizza has no rules. The Italian run pizza place near me does an amazing pizza with just slices of loving eggplant and two or three dollops of ricotta. It is heaven. Don't dis eggplant on pizzas

You poor heathen countries and your crazy godless rituals. Is freezing the top tier to eat on the anniversary a thing even? Do couples not smear Vegemite on each other's faces?

empty sea posted:I've had fruit cake exactly once, at Christmas in Newfoundland. My boyfriend's grandma had soaked it in rum for a month or so and they lit it on fire for dessert, then served it with clotted cream. It was loving delicious. Warm, dense and deeply flavorful with chunks of fruit, a hint of rum in the heavy cake and then the cream added a nice finishing touch. I don't know if she bought some store cake and then soaked it in rum or made it herself but goddamn ya'll. That sounds incredible, I wish fruit cakes here were a hundredth as good as that sounds.

You have to use positive reinforcement with Pretty much, but people seems to be super proud of every single meal they make/reheat. Admittedly I have posted food pics to facebook once because I was super proud I'd finally made macarons without loving them up after like my tenth attempt and I'd been whining about said fuckups for the whole day. The only other food picture Ive taken was of some giant cupcake with a big Ol slice of brownie wedged in the frosting at an angle, with two big chunks of decorated chocolate jabbed into the brownie at some fancy event I can't remember, because it was loving hilarious. I'll try to find it to post here, the thing was monstrous.

slingshot effect posted:Nah. The closet Australia has to poutine is going to the nearest cornershop and giving the smiling Chinese bloke behind the greasy bain marie five bucks to fill a cardboard box of hot chips with as much dark brown mystery gravy as the box can handle without losing its structural integrity. This is sadly true. Except the guy behind the counter is always a rad kiwi guy or an ancient and terrifying Germanic lady in my area. Always. I mostly read this thread to make me not hungry, and all this talk about poutine just makes me sad that I cannot experience it. I can't even find cheese curds here in tyool 2015. I don't even like chips but goddamn do I want poutine like nothing else in this world. Although I've heard that if you're super lucky they might try to make you lovely poutine with fake cheese at lord of the fries, if any Aus goons can confirm/deny or tell me how to acquire cheese curds, the future deathfat me would greatly appreciate it.

Underwater Shoe posted:Piezza reminds me of an upsetting food I came across in New Zealand. Witness, a normal steak pie, with a slice of cheap plastic cheese inside. We have them in most gas stations and convenience stores and there is something so, so good about how the plastic cheese turned into weird cheesy liquid. They're terrible, and terrible for you, but goddamn if I don't buy one every time we go on road trips. Vic posted:At this point I'm pretty sure if I posted a picture of my dick coated in batter and deep fried there would two camps instantly arguing both and against eating it. Would.

I guess it might as well count just by virtue of the horrible things it'd to to your body and teeth. Holy poo poo, that's what my Facebook feeds been full of! I legit thought it was a weird gimmick plate thing. It's kinda close to where I'm usually in the city most days, and I kinda really want to try eating that big Ol sugar cloud, but just looking at it makes my teeth hurt. If they do savoury gelato I am so doing this though.
