My dad grew up in Indiana in the 40s and sometimes talks about the food. Oregano was an exotic spice to be used sparingly, and he ate pizza for the first time as a teenager. I'll have to ask if they ate a ton of canned food. I remember hating visiting his mom's house because the food she cooked was always insanely salty and it invariably featured some sort of green vegetable with all the green boiled out of it, and then salted. That sort of poo poo is why people think they don't like vegetables.  Reeses produces enormous eggs of roughly this volume around easter and I always eat at least one or two every year with a deep sense of shameful delight. How can such poo poo quality chocolate be so good. How.

No pic because it was a million years ago, but one of my Mom's boyfriends used to eat mayo and peanut butter on toast and dip it in his coffee. I always assumed I remembered it wrong, that it was cream cheese, but I asked, and nope. Mayo and PB. I grew up pretty poor and didn't eat a lot of non-canned, non-preprepared food growing up, so when I became an adult I went crazy trying all the fruits and veggies I didn't get as a child. Turns out I like a bunch of poo poo that I thought I hated. But now I can't bring myself to eat things I used to love, like pickled herring. And to eat goon who dropped the knowledge about wasps and figs, thanks. I didn't know that. And now that I know did are delicious and remove an rear end in a top hat wasp from the world, they taste better.

Saddest food yet. Somehow they're always sour. I genuinely did not know canned potatoes were a thing until I was in my mid-twenties. Someone posted in the general discussion thread of GWS that they were a cook at a homeless shelter for teenagers (I think?) and they were having difficulty finding recipes the kids would eat that they could cook with their donated foodstuffs. I wish that guy had done an A/T. My mother's rule regarding canned foods: unless they are tomatoes or you canned it yourself, NOT ALLOWED. In case anyone wondered what my crazy mother would say. it seems to be a running theme in my posts.   GOD HAS DIED

There's literally nothing wrong with canned foods and those who think there is are the worst kinds of food snobs. I use those canned potatoes in cooking. They're excellent in a homemade vindaloo

The only acceptable canned food is Libby's corned beef and any soups/stews with the exception of Progresso. Also corn, green beans, whole pineapples, tuna, tomatoes in various forms, beans, fruit salads, juices, and stocks. Anything else though.....gross.

Ddraig posted:There's literally nothing wrong with canned foods and those who think there is are the worst kinds of food snobs. I could rant for hours about the food my parents eat. I've discovered that they just hate flavor at all, and to this day they still bitch about how when I cooked for them I used "too much onions and garlic." By that it was one small onion, and one clove of garlic. Basically everything they eat comes from a can, box, or is frozen. It's so sad that they're so used to eating that way, that an actual home-cooked meal with effort put into it is not good to them. That said, I actually don't have issues with that pre-made stuff, it's a great timesaver. I don't care if you throw down a can of something, or a box of Betty Crocker if you're actually putting effort into something, it's just when that's all you eat it's sad

Canned beans (not green beans; black beans, kidney beans, chickpeas) save a ton of time. Tomatoes and artichoke hearts are a no-brainer. Most other canned veggies are easier to find and cheaper frozen. And not as water-logged.

That sort of poo poo is why people think they don't like vegetables. I was doing some research on food history because of all the "White people food is gross and bland" jokes and it seems like what most people joke about as "white people food" is actually just food descended from poverty and is usually eaten by the poor still today. World War II helped kill a lot of the use of spices and interesting foods in America and the UK due to rationing and American cuisine suffered in the 19th century with the large portion of the population engaging in travel and settlement, so only the really egalitarian parts of the populations continued eating anything awesome. We're finally now in an age where people are rich enough and transport is cheap enough that you can create virtually any world cuisine with as much or as little spice as you want for a low price, but the momentum of the past has kept the shittier stuff going.

Yes, it does. I could go out right now, drive two minutes to the local dairy wholesaler, and pick up a 10-year old cheddar block and it would look similar melted. This topic seems to come up every time someone posts an orange cheese, like everyone thinks every orange cheese is velveeta or something.

I don't get the velveeta hate. It works perfectly for what it was meant for, a cheese and melts extremely easily and doesn't clump up or have pools of fat in the sauce. Same with margarine, great for baking, terrible for any other alternative use of butter.

Why would you not use real cheese instead of velveeta, and why wouldn't you use real butter in baking instead of margarine? You literally can't buy Velveeta or any Velveeta like product in Australia and I've never thought to myself "You know what, I wish this cheese was easier to melt and also, not actually cheese."

deadly_pudding posted:I suffer through an eternity of smooth marinara because my girlfriend, though she likes vegetables, can't deal with the texture of an intact piece of tomato. I guess, realistically, I can probably afford to just buy my own sauce separately, but we don't go through it fast enough to not end up wasting it. There's not a lot of things more pathetic than an opened jar of tomato sauce from like 2 months ago that you forgot was in your fridge. I have the same problem your gf has i love the taste of tomatoes but the texture of them triggers my gag reflex even raw un cooked ones. I drink a lot of v8 and eat a lot of tomato soups. as for hfcs it is in most things but not everything you can generally find a version of anything w/o hfcs in even walmart. Just gotta read the labels.
