A few years back I drove home. It's a lovely trip, two days through Chicago. I get home. My mom, bless her so much, I love her, made "favorite dish" from when I as a kid. I am in my late 30s and have developed a palette that is really wide and deep. Mom made me "bean dip". No seasoning. Some cheese, thank god. Then my dad bitched I was eating too much. It was bland as gently caress. Did I say something? Hell no! But I ate peanut butter I stole from the hotel because I was still hungry. The rest of the week was my fattening up going to local places that rock. But mom, bless her, she tried.

Vegetable posted:Ketchup on pasta does sound bad but that’s mostly because there’s literally no other flavor on that plate. Mix it up with, I dunno, onions, cream, spicy sausage and parsley and you might have something halfway decent. I think this is literally a thing in Japan. Going back a few pages I know, but ketchup pasta is a legit thing in Japan. It's called "Spaghetti Napolitan" and it originated as an attempt to approximate spaghetti using ingredients that were available in post-war Japan and kind of evolved into its own thing. The trick is that there are other flavours going on and you cook some of the acidity out of the ketchup before adding it to the pasta. I made it the other night and it turned out OK. Not something I'd serve to guests but as a quick lunch or dinner it's perfect decent. https://japan.recipetineats.com/spaghetti-napolitan-japanese-ketchup-pasta/

My FIL caught a fresh fish, I think it was a flathead if I remember, and my MIL put it under the grill with no salt, no pepper, no oil, nothing, and then served it to us with the bones still in and the tail still on the piece she gave to me. Not only was it the worst thing I've ever been served, it may in fact have been the worst thing I've ever eaten, straight up.

Outrail posted:Spaghetti Napolitan with a big scoop of Strawberry, vanilla and Chocolate ice cream. Yum. at first I assumed this was a typo and you meant to say "neapolitan", like the ice cream that's strawberry, vanilla, and chocolate and I thought "not so bad, spaghetti is pretty neutral" but then I googled "Spaghetti Napolitan" and I guess that means spaghetti and ketchup? so are you saying someone actually served spaghetti napolitan with neapolitan ice cream? or did they hear about spaghetti napolitan and misunderstand and think it was spaghetti with neapolitan ice cream? I want to understand which way this person's brain is broken and if you were served ketchup + spaghetti + neapolitan ice cream the person who did it needs to be put away, they will hurt more people

my roommate and I would take turns cooking dinner cause it was easier and cheaper to make food to scale. he was usually better / more adventurous than me back in the day but we each served each other some real doozies while we figured it out. split alfredo sauce and shoe leather chicken, etc. but the only one we ever really had to throw away was when he made tuna cakes. like crab cakes, but tuna from a can. we were using up some pantry staples so he grabbed the tuna and breadcrumbs. we are both big eaters to he made them the size of thick burgers. but since they were bigger and thicker he had to bake them longer - until they dried out to much you had to rehydrate them in your mouth. the final result was like trying to eat sawdust lmao our only hope was some kind of condiment or sauce to get moisture. we were college kids so all that was in the fridge was ketchup and mustard. we choose the ketchup. it did not improve the experience. we still ate about half before we threw in the towel. I miss those days

for restaurants the only meal I ever stopped eating because I was grossed out was in a 99 Restaurant iirc with my father. I ordered the meatloaf. he asked me if I was sure that was what I wanted - I was a child who like the meatloaf my mom made, so that's what I ordered. It came out undercooked.

Burger King once gave me a chicken sandwich with a raw frozen chicken patty in it. When I complained they microwaved it until it was a hot piece of raw chicken.

Restaurant meals? My worst one was after a long day on the road with friends, we finally stopped for a late night Denny's visit. The food took an hour to come out, everything was cold and had something terrible about it. My hash browns were literally hard enough that buying through them hurt my teeth, and our coffee cups had enough of an essence of soap to add some bubbles and affect the taste. I guess we probably should've known what we were getting into, but you kinda take what you can get late at night.

My fave restaurant meal included the little diced mixed veggies you get in the bag from the Safeway. The one with the peas and perfectly cubular carrots. Lol'd but I still ate it for some reason.

I love bad chain breakfast restaurants, like Shari's and Denny's, but when they are bad, it's inedible. My husband and I went to a Shari's and he orders an egg over easy. What comes out is an egg that saw a pan for maybe 30 seconds, maybe. Literally raw egg white running across the plate. According to the server, cooked egg white is actually an over medium egg, not over easy. We never returned to that particular Shari's.

I ordered a double quarter pounder, mayo only one time and I got a bun, two slices of cheese, and mayo. No meat. This was at 3 AM after a long car ride home. I didn't notice until I got home and opened the box.

It sounds like they probably did undercook it but it's like ordering a steak rare or well done, at the ends of the spectrum you take your chances Over medium is probably what you wanted, really

Nah, I've ordered a billion over easy eggs at diners and they all come out with cooked whites and runny yolks, that place is hosed up if they're serving majorly uncooked egg whites. e: the easy/medium/hard part is supposed to just be the yolk, not the white.

Even places that do sunny side up can just cover the egg for a min and cook that off. That's what I do. Anyone that doesn't eat runny yolk eggs is an idiot

I always order over medium eggs, and I've literally never gotten what I think of as over medium (whites set, yolk jammy, just/mostly set but still dark). Luckily I eat the whole range of yolks, but if you don't, don't bet on a diner egg.

I LOVE waffle house because I abuse myself with hash browns, gravy, cheese, and I ask them to throw a couple sunny side up eggs on top. Will I get food poisoning? Maybe. Does it thicken my blood? Absolutely. But it's worth the risk. (Don't do this more than like twice a year)

As far as I know a Carolina style chili dog has weiner, beanless chili, slaw and raw onions.

No dog. yes! it's mostly northern Greenville County and Pickens County (SC, not the more SA-famous hotdog-related Pickens County). if you want a chili dog in those areas you have to order a hotdog with chili. I have no idea why this would be. subpar anachronism posted:I have asked several of my also from SC friends and none of us have heard of this dogless chili dog so it must be hyper regional.
