Time for the semi-regular reboot of the afp thread, you know how it all works by now, post your favorite food disasters.


quote:

"Oh balls, the chili escaped"


quote:

"Hey ma, you know that thing we had on the stove?"

"The pressure cooker?"

"Yeah, it escaped. Into the mountains. I hope it finds a good home."

As usual, most anything goes, just don't be weird about it. It's not worth starting a blood feud over Carbonara.


But for some examples, there's the good old staple of just plain ugly food:


Unreasonable quantities of food:


The Unknowable:


The Mistakes:


The Weird:

quote:

I made menstrual blood cookies! I am not entirely happy with how they turned out, so I am going to experiment with some recipes throughout the rest of this month so I can try for something great next cycle. This recipe was far too floury.

And the Fad/Influencer poo poo:


Trip reports:
bunnyofdoom tries the Big Boss, which has less snake than one might imagine. And provides his taste test of the reeses cups burger, wherein he both wins and loses.
GOTTA STAY FAI tries out some weird Illinois regional food. And then explains the history of the breakfast abomination only known as The Harold And finishes up with a beautiful hand made reeses cups stuffed burger, beating out Bunnyofdoom. PROCLICK Then makes a delicious Ramen Sandwich
cash crab a local raccoon tries out Subway's in-name-only Lobster Sub And then goes balls ovaries deep into a Double Down
johnnyratbastard demonstrates false advertising with the help of Pizza Hut's mince pie bite stuffed crust pizza
PandaK makes his own pizzabomination
Horrible Smutbeast channels M Night in his tasting of Cadbury's with Vegemite.
And going above and beyond the line of duty, forums hero chitoryu12 goes all out and makes a sister thread just for MREs and military food. :911:
Tasteful Dickpic makes a weird hot dog abomination, but worst of all, he eats it with a fork.
Gotta Stay Fai graces us with his glorious radio voice once again. And maybe eats some poo poo from Wendys idk.
atholbrose goes to Burger King to try out their commemorative Ronald McDonald Clown Blood Burger Angriest Whopper.

Also because we're apparently doing recipes now:

Ran out the of eggs when making cornbread tonight and was no way in hell going to the store to get some in all this ice. Turns out you can use vinegar and baking soda as an egg substitute.

Not the greatest, but went well with the chili we made. Oh and lots of butter.

Bringing it back from the old thread in case anyone missed it

fizzymercy posted:

Do a chili cheese corndog casserole.

In a greased 9/13 casserole: Homemade chilli (leftovers are great for this, make sure it's warmed through though) on the bottom, then a layer of good cheddar cheese, top with cornbread mix made to package directions and mix in chopped raw jalapenos and onion, top that with chopped hot dogs, top with more cheddar cheese.
so:
cheddar cheese+hot dogs
prepped raw cornbread mix with jalapenos+onion
cheese
warmed chilli

Bake at 375f until it's bubbly and browned. Usually 40ish minutes? Serve with pickled jalapenos and sour cream and chopped onions.

It's too good. You'll die of happiness.

Sounds really good. Gonna do it next time I make chilli

somebody posted hot dr pepper in the old thread and i have to vouch for it. i've had many a sip of accidental hot dr pepper after leaving the bottle in the cupholder in the car for fifteen minutes while i pump gas in a texas summer, and thought: "this would actually be great at christmas." i highly recommend it in the proper season tbh! and y'all still in texas are due for an ice storm so what better time than the present to het up your pepper

A couple drafts of attempts at the "small pastry" concept with varying degrees of terribleness.

Part pastry, part shrimp.

All shrimp (pessimal pastry resemblance, but I wanted to draw it)

Part (of a) shrimp

in honor of the new thread i wanna inaugurate a new project to taxonomically categorize all afp

the kingdoms would be like

1. normal foods specific goons don't like (maybe because of childhood trauma, maybe because they just hate vegetables, or eggs, or condiments, or the abstract concept of moisture)
2. normal foods, cooked in a purposely weird/bad way or served on strange plates
3. forrin muck (normal food for 75% of the world that the OP hasn't encountered before or thinks sounds gross)
4. #wifematerial
5. masaokis and friends
6. stunts (kings hand and chocolate alligator)

Can someone describe the texture of jellied eel? Is it like actually surrounded on all sides by slimy fish jell-o? Is it really eel-forward in flavor? For the life of me I can't fathom an experience that isn't "Jell-o salad made with aquarium scum"

I really want to try them some day. I bet they're appalling in the fun way.

I've tried jellied eels out of curiosity in Kent, it was like extremely underseasoned and undergrilled unagi with a dollop of vaguely-salty jelly which had no real texture. The eel itself was about 50% meat and 50% vertebrae.

All in all, not the worst food I've ever had, but I wouldn't pay for a second helping.

Between the two of these I think I really have to try it now. It's starting to sound not too different from my Mema's preserved catfish, which wasn't great because it's home canned catfish in an oyster broth. But you put some vinegar and salt on it and it's food. Definitely a food.
