This speaks heavily to my bias in what I was fed growing up. But, in my experience, canned corn was superior to frozen. Canned green beans were ok, frozen had fresher texture but a squeakiness when chewing.

Canned Peas = Horrid

Canned Spinach = Horrid

Canned peas are grey-green mushy satan droppings.

I don't prefer blue or super rare steaks, but I don't begrudge people for liking meat to their preference; I just get weirded out when people buy relatively expensive cuts and blast them to hell.

You should try some sous vide steaks if you want easy mode steak doneness. Hot water at temp, glowing hot pan, and a cheap propane torch form the hardware store, and you can get some really superbly finished meats, including medium-rare pork chops and chicken breast you can cut with the side of a fork, with minimal meat myth bullshittery.

SORRY FOR THE SOUS VIDE DERAIL I AM SORRY IN ADVANCE PLEASE DO NOT ATTACK ME FOR CHALLENGING YOUR GREAT GRANDPAPPY'S MEAT RECIPE

'Medium rare' isn't really a thing in pork, there is a minimum internal temperature you need to cook pork to. If comparing, it's much closer to medium to medium-well in color, with just the slightest pink tinge still inside. I feel really sorry for all you weirdos who need a machine and water to cook your food for you.

In Australia we get this cool salted spreadable butter from NZ http://www.mainland.com.au/cheese-products/buttersoft/
It loving rocks, way better than any aussie or euro spreadable butter.
I only use regular unsalted aussie or euro butter in block/stick form for cooking.

Why do you need special butter, why can't you just use a butter dish like a civilized country?

This is the current menu of my uncle's pizza restaurant, for anyone curious about American pizza menus: http://www.hideawaypizza.com/menu.php

He bought it in the '60s (maybe early '70s) and it was a hole-in-the-wall joint with excellent food for a long time. Bit more mainstream now, but still independent and not fast-foody. Sorry about the blaring colors (supposed to be an homage to the restaurant's hippie tie-dye days). Example for those too lazy to click:

These are the best pizza places, all the chains in america suck rear end.

It's generic pasta and sauce. It's absolutely low tier but far from some travesty. It's mostly the same as olive garden but less pretentious.

American Cheese is real cheese that just sucks at being cheese. It is bland and smooth and is a great alternative to other soft cheeses if there is literally no other cheese anywhere.

Kraft Cheese is sold in slices, but is not real cheese. It is basically solidified nacho cheese, but tastes about the same as American Cheese. Unlike American Cheese, though, it has the texture of eating plastic.

:patriot:

Kraft Singles are American "cheese" and no it's not real cheese it's cheese product. There's not actually enough cheese in it to legally call it cheese.

Why do you idiots keep saying this? No it is not. Kraft singles are american cheese. American cheese is a "cheese product." Stop trying to defend trash food. There are legal definitions from the government about what constitutes american cheese.
