Do you mean pretty much every diet/nutrition study done in the past few years that encourage people to eat whole grains over processed starches and sugar? Because the general consensus is the former is better than the latter.

 This was a "dish" I had often as a kid, I don't know if anyone else ever made it or it was some bizarro recipe that was in my family. It's macaroni, tomato juice, and a bit of butter to taste. Photo courtesy of my cousin who decided to revive it a few weeks ago.

This is similar to something my family makes, except instead of juice we use canned tomatoes (self-canned, not store bought) and pepper to taste. It's good food on a cold day, easy to make, and it is delicious

Okay, this is going to sound ridiculous, but I was watching QI and heard a mention of "wasp fudge". I tried googling around about it just to see what that might be, and I just found a couple things saying it is an old school rural UK recipe. Anybody know anything about it?

I tried googling around about it just to see what that might be, and I just found a couple things saying it is an old school rural UK recipe. Anybody know anything about it? 3 cups of white sugar 3/4 cup butter or margarine 2/3 evaporated milk (or 1/2 cup milk + 1/8 cup whipping cream) 6 oz chocolate chips 7 oz marshmallow fluff (a jar is 7.5oz, but some of the goo just won’t come off the sides) 1 tsp vanilla 1/2 cup peanut butter —– Lightly grease a 9×13 pan with butter or margarine. Combine 1 1/2 cups of sugar, 6T of butter (margarine), 1/3 cup of milk in a heavy-bottomed saucepan; bring to a full boil stirring constantly. Continue boiling for 4 minutes. Keep stirring or it will scorch. This is not good. Remove from heat, stir in the chocolate until it’s melted, then add half of the marshmallow fluff and the vanilla Stir until well-blended. Pour and spread into the pan as evenly as possible. Repeat steps 2 through 4, but with peanut butter instead of chocolate chips, and without adding vanilla. (I don’t bother to clean the saucepan in between times) Spread peanut butter mixture over chocolate layer. Cool at room temperature. While the fudge is cooling, scrape the saucepan clean with a rubber spatula, applying the fudge detritus to face in unladylike fashion. (Seriously, this is my favourite bowl/pot-scraping recipe of all.)

I imagine somewhere like Olive Garden would be scrupulous about sourcing their supplies because if it came out that their calamari was actually reclaimed pork parts it would cause a storm of outrage and bad PR that would take years to overcome. The local greasy spoon or fish n chip shop on the other hand, would be much more likely to buy a box of 'kalamari style food rings' if the price was right because even if their customers found out who cares?

RaspberryCommie posted:You too? Practically grew up on this. I'd rather just go the Canadian route and eat some Kraft Dinner with ketchup. Same basic concept but tastier because it's not watered down and also has a flavour somewhat resembling cheese mixed in.

It ain't just Internet nerds, dude--there are tons of people in the real world that literally do not know how to make boxed mac & cheese, rice, pasta, etc. You probably encounter at least one of these people every day. Asking one of them to add a can of soup or chili to the mac & cheese after preparing it would be like asking him or her to solve the Pompeiu problem.

I once saw on a life hacks account that the following is an advanced recipe to make gourmet cuisine: Cook chicken. Warm up frozen broccoli. Cook pasta. Mix everything together with jar of alfredo sauce.

I went on a cooking course hoping to learn some skills beyond usual kitchen skills. That's when I discovered stuff like making a basic white sauce from scratch etc is considered advanced by most people. There was someone there who was shocked to discover you can make bolognese sauce from actual tomatoes, and not just from a jar of pre-prepared sauce.

That's just a literal translation of the Chinese characters. It actually says pasta with tomato sauce and ground meat.
