Following the example set by our intrepid heroes (who are probably still feeling the pain), I've decided to make good on my promise of eating and showing off a ridiculous regional dish. The Horseshoe A Horseshoe, as any Illinoisan will tell you, was invented right here in the Land of Lincoln, and we defend it ferociously. "It was OUR idea," we scream, "to take a piece of Texas toast, put some meat on it, cover it with fries, then cover the fries with cheese!" Here's a cross-section of this behemoth: There are no horseshoe rules other than bread, meat, fries, cheese. The meat can be whatever you want, even that weird Gardenburger stuff, though most locals opt for a good ol'-fashioned hamburger patty. Today I've chosen turkey because I'm in a turkey mood, and had it topped with mushrooms, diced tomatoes, and jalapenos. I have no way of weighing this loving thing but if you hold the container with one hand, you risk losing the 'shoe when the styrofoam breaks because it's pretty heavy. Wish me luck and if I die and BARONS survives I guess he's next in line for my stuff. Hope you like your new '94 Ford Ranger (sorry, the A/C doesn't work)

Are you Canadians telling me you've never heard of or been to: There's one in Niagara Falls, ON, and when we go, it's drat difficult for me not to eat every single meal in there. I think they opened one up in the US somewhere in California. https://smokespoutinerie.com/ Anyway, it's probably been posted before, but the Cookingforbae Instagram page is a gold mine.

They're not bad, but they get a little too messy for my taste a lot of the time. However, they're opening a wiener shop ("Grab your wiener here!" is the actual tagline) near my place. When they open, I'll let you know.

pookel posted:Sadly, that looks miles above the quality of the school lunches I remember from grade school in the 1980s. I just GIS'd and couldn't find anything that resembled my school lunch memories, either. Think "macaroni in red sauce that's been sitting around for hours and congealing, so when they serve it to you with an ice cream scoop, it sits there on your tray in a perfect ball that you're afraid to touch." Pasta with red sauce is probably the better of modern school lunches. One dish that's was pretty common when I was in school was lightly season ground beef with the texture of sand and tortilla chips with no veg because the taco meat probably was cooked in a tomato base sauce. I gained like 15 pounds from 5-6th grade because my elementary school had a vendor that sold junk food and my middle school had a vending machine which were way more inciting lunch choices to kids.

You guys are really making me want to pick up a Tamale Boat from Al's Beef and document my death from colonic implosion after I eat it. E: For the uninitiated, Chicago-style Tamales are a tube of cornmeal paste stuffed with ground beef and various spices. They're pooped out of a machine that is basically an industrial Play-Doh extruder. They come out like this: then get deep fried until they turn bright yellow and delicious.

Actually, I always eat it when I'm drunk, so maybe that's why it looks so fuzzy to me. But yes, good gravy, weird combos like pulled pork keep it interesting. This reminds me that I still need to make/show you guys the Jailhouse Burritos because they look like slimy versions of these squares.

They come out like this: When I was a teen, one of my favorite things to "cook" for myself was a pot with a can of chili (with beans) and two tamales; mix until you have something that looks like a can of dog food, and serve on a plate with some oyster crackers pressed into it. It would seriously just plop out of the pot in a weird tuna can shape and hold that shape while you ate it. I get heartburn just thinking about it.

BlankIsBeautiful posted:Are you Canadians telling me you've never heard of or been to: If you like Smoke's poutine you are in for a real treat the first time you taste actual poutine. Smoke's is the Kraft Singles of poutine. Next time you're in Canada, go to Montreal (which is amazing for reasons other than fries, cheese curds and gravy) and on your way there stop at a roadside casse-croûte somewhere in Québec and prepare yourself for a life-changing experience.

The bread at the bottom is a bit weird though, I would forego the bread and just eat it as a particular rich subset of chilli cheese fries?

This thread and google image search reminded me of these things: These were the loving poo poo back in 3rd grade. Wouldn't eat one of them today since I'm trying to make sure my blood sugars don't go overboard so I avoid diabetes but these were too good. MMMMM, cheap white bread sticking to the roof the your mouth! Also to get back to the Anti-Food Porn stuff what in God's name am I looking at here?

The bread was soggy, stale, and probably laced with cyanide. The peanut butter was barely there and completely overwhelmed by gobs of super sugary (yet somehow flavorless) jelly. Despite that the jelly was probably the only thing that kept it edible since that much refined sugar can make almost anything taste good.

It's pretty tasty, even if it is a pile of cheese fries atop a half-sandwich (hey, it's the Midwest, bland is all we've got). The true anti-food porn begins in a couple weeks when county/state fair season starts up. We get ourselves up to all sorts of culinary atrocities during the summer
