Look at all you motherfuckers who are from Not Texas and haven't experienced the glory of HEB. :3: (everything else about Texas pretty much sucks but HEB is the best grocery store ever and has like 3-4 house brands, all of which are great, even the super-value one for the most part. Also they pay pretty well and don't treat their employees like subhumans so I don't feel bad giving them my money)

I don't know why kind of trash HEBs you've been in but they're by far the best around here, great selection and also not apparently organized by blind idiots like yours are.

Possibly the poo poo ones in south Austin, otherwise known as the ghetto HEB and the slightly-less-ghetto-but-still-trash HEB. Those are just sad. The ones elsewhere in Austin and the ones in Kyle and San Marcos own bones.

I made a pizza tonight that looked about like that, but at least I didn't take a picture of it. And it was delicious despite the fact I'm balls at shaping pizza dough and it got cut funny. :colbert: #nopizzarules

I love that you are supposed to specifically use Kerrygold butter in this magic concoction when Kerrygold is basically a brand name slapped on the ordinary butter sold in every irish supermarket -(unless you buy small-batch locally produced butter) it's all coming from the big co-op dairies, not enchanted Kerrygold cows.

I buy Kerrygold because yeah, it's generic mass-produced Irish butter but that still puts it head and shoulders above most mass-produced American butter

They just really like cheese. I remember when I went to Chik fil a and you could just order a side of cheese to dip your fries in. It was awesome.

The restaurant where I work makes a scratch-made queso that's amazing and any time we have a bunch left at the end of the night, the GM of the pizza place next door conveniently swings by to take a pint or so off our hands. She goes back to the pizza place and makes a large pizza with 4+ toppings, then drenches it in queso.

She looks exactly like you think she does.

I took a picture but my phone's been really stubborn lately so for whatever reason it didn't save - have a GIS picture instead. I cooked up a bunch of breakfast taco meat this morning to save for a few days and one of them was chorizo, a meat which is absolute god-tier but visually indistinguishable from canned dog food. Even when thrown in with eggs and cheese and tortilla and hot sauce it's a bit offputting to look at. Goddamn if it isn't delicious though.

Are you talking about Calpis? I kinda like that~


The restaurant I work at sells Calpico as well as several variants of ramune, and I never know how to describe what Calpico tastes like. I know it's supposed to be yogurt based but it really just kinda tastes like super watered down, vaguely citrusy Gatorade to me with maybe a bit of yogurt-water weirdness to it. I don't particularly like it but I did my bit and at least now I know

I got all the ingredients off of amazon a while back...my friend who's an amateur chef and goes to the asian market often makes it for me, so I get my fix that way. I had it in japan a ton of times, they have these lovely instant mapo dofu kits that are still way good, but nothing like my friend who makes it super authentic. Again, I feel like I've never seen it in Texas, but I feel like people would love it cause to me it's the ultimate comfort food but chinese.

This is the one my friend makes:


Depending on where you are in Texas you can totally find it; the Chinese place I used to work in San Marcos makes it (and it's not bad). I don't know why it's so uncommon to find but it should definitely not be

Our chicken fried steak is frozen and reheated/fried and it is Not Good

the chicken fried chicken is hand breaded and actual chicken, and is delicious. Mac and cheese is water-cooked in bigass retort pouches, portioned, cooled and then reheated. Mashed potatoes are made from scratch, then either cooled and re-steamed later or kept in a warmer for four hours

we apparently used to do the "use the fryer to cook soups" thing despite having a 6-burner range but the GM caught someone doing it like her first week here and had a fit that the prep cooks still remember, so we don't do that anymore

My mom is an early Boomer (born 1945) and basically hasn't changed her recipe collection since the early 80s. She has a collection of old neighborhood/church recipe books from the 70s and they are a fantastic look at Louisiana/Texas white people food. I make a chicken spaghetti of hers sometimes that includes canned mushrooms, cream of mushroom soup, canned chicken, shaky cheese and jarred pimentos and it's loving delicious, I have no idea why. I tried making it with real food once and it just wasn't the same. Good, but that nostalgia for the aggressively mediocre childhood comfort food is real and changing it feels wrong.

e: the recipe calls for oleo, which I'm like 100% sure isn't even a thing anymore (it's just margarine anyway)

You know, as a kid, I really disliked Ren and Stimpy. I watched a little bit of it but I was a squeamish kid and things that relied heavily on gross-out humour bothered me a lot.

As I grew older, I recognized this about myself, became more comfortable with fart jokes, and generally relaxed on this topic.

Today I look at this picture and I think that kid me was right. What the gently caress.

this sums up my experience with 90s grossout cartoons nicely, thank you

You got some bad fuckin' food opinions but I defend your right to be wrong.

White gravy can be disappointing but more often it's just that they didn't include salt or the pepper is just lovely pre-ground pepper.

Like seriously doesn't matter how much stale ground pepper you add to anything, it won't help.

Goddamn I could gently caress UP a big loving biscuits and gravy right now. gently caress.

this is the correct opinion, white gravy haters :frogout:
