A kind soul just pointed this thread out to me. I have an ongoing photography project which is specifically in response to foodporn, and the fetishization of food through glamour photography.

Here are a few of my favorites:


Pastrami and Beet Greens on Jewish Rye.


Americana.


Fresh Picked Chanterelles on 3 Wendy's Hamburgers.


Pizza Aioli Sammich.

On spaghetti...




And for everyone that actually does this, gently caress ya'll!

Uhhh....ketchup on spaghetti is my guiltiest pleasure and I will never give it up. :colbert:

We don't really have any weird cultural delicacies where I live...I mean, some people find poutine gross but that's it.

I also get strange looks when I bring pancakes filled with ham & cheese, or pâté, or even white sweet cheese - in UK pancakes are eaten only with jam and any other combination is blasphemy (at least in my parts). My brother however would have eaten pancakes with vegeta or mustard.

It depends, in some areas savoury pancakes are quite common - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oatcake
North Staffs oatcakes are really nice for breakfast, done under the grill with some ham and cheese then rolled up.

I've read through the thread and I don't recall it being called out, but when it comes to the menstrual blood cookie thing? I'm almost certain it's fake. Blood can't really be cooked into a pastry, cake or bread in the way that was shown there since it tends to curdle, and I can't find any link to how to make it/any other person attempting it. Anyone have anything that proves this is a real thing?

I've known people who were raised this was and I never really understood it. A pack of hotdog rolls is like 99 cents for the cheapest brands. Who the gently caress can't spend a dollar towards hotdogs they've already purchased? that's just insane penny pinching.

Loaf of multi-use bread vs. buns.

Also, the key element to a hot dog ketchup craft dinner is to fry the hot dogs with garlic.

On a related note, burgers or sausages in a wrap. A friend told me I was insane for doing it, but he's wrong. He was wrong about using toast for sausage sandwiches too. I think he's just wrong about food in general, and for that, I pity him.

Single mom working barely above minimum wage in a lovely rural prairie town raising 2 kids. Spending that money on 6-8 servings is over-spending if you could spend the same amount on 20+ servings of bread slices instead.

Anyway, I eat cheese-filled barbequed smokies on hoagie buns these days if I feel like a "hotdog". Middle-class DINK relationships rule!

My weird food is jellyfish. I've had it a few times at Japanese and Chinese restaurants. It doesn't really taste like anything other than the sauce they cook it in, and it has a weird chewy texture that most people I know hate. It's mostly enjoyable because eating it freaks other people out. I ordered some while out to dinner with friends of the family, and one of the guys wouldn't even let me put the leftovers in the same bag at the other food. Like his food might get jellyfish cooties from being near it, or something.

Yeah I was thinking about that too. The colour is also completely wrong, cooked blood is more or less black. I guess she could have used a shitload of food colouring but even then it'd be darker or there's hardly any blood there.

People called her out on it, but then she claimed that she only used just a little of blood mixed with food coloring. It's all bullshit.

Hell yes, these are amazing. Very much a Hawaii food, 7/11 sells them there.

Other Hawaii things that are weird or weird looking

Poi:


This is mashed up Taro root and I find it pretty gross tasting (and the glue like texture) but it was a staple food in Hawaii for a long time so it's still almost everywhere there.

Loco Moco:


This looks pretty terrible but is probably the best drat breakfast around. White rice. Throw some brown gravy on that poo poo. Hamburger patty, throw a little more gravy if you want. Drop a runny fried egg on top and then more gravy. It's the best pre-anything breakfast and will you keep full for a really long time.

All's I can say is I reblogged it from the original post onto my own tumblr sometime last year (yeah you knew this poo poo originated on tumblr) with a comment saying exactly that, and the chick who "made" them responded seriously in like two hours saying SHE SUPER SO DID, I BET YOU THINK YOU KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT BAKING WITH BLOOD :smug:

I've known a fair number of women who have cooked with menstrual blood -- they usually only use a fairly small amount because they want to make the person who eats it fall in love with them. The whole idea is that the victim doesn't know they are eating it.

This is basically what a lot of my favorite breakfasts end up being, minus the gravy.
