I got sick after eating a spicy mapo dofu once, I don't think it was even the dish itself but something else I had that day. I had trouble eating anything with sichuan pepper for at least a year.

dragonfruit is the worst because it looks like itll taste amazing and it tastes like nothing. even in tropical areas where its supposed to be grown and stuff it tastes like nothing

It's telling that Dragonfruit is so weird looking and unfamiliar at the time to most people that Kamen Rider Gaim(a series that had it's whole aesthetic built around fruits) used them as the props for the series' "Helheim" fruit with only very minor modification, they're that alien looking

Honestly, I'd give it a bite or two. I don't like blueberries, but I can imagine the taste going decently together. A bit like white chocolate and cranberry, two flavors I despise singly, but taste good together.

I feel like it would be heavily dependent on the cheese in question being used I imagine

Cheese and fruit pair well, and blueberries really aren't that sweet, mostly tart; as long as its just one or two per bite its probably pretty good.

Sweet pasta casserole with cheese is a popular cheap kids' dish around here. But the cheese is quark, the fruit is usually apricots or plums, and it's topped with meringue.

Also it looks gross (I think it tastes gross as well, but most people seem to like it well enough)

Quark cheese? That's strange. I'm down with that casserole, though, it's got a kind of charm. What's up with the crust, if it has one? It's hard to tell from that picture, but a soggy bottom would be nearly as bad as a burnt top.

Sorry.

passionfruit i can miss but i am sort of fascinated by fruits of the type that are just pods full of hundreds of little juice bags. pomegranates are the most famous but give some consideration to the humble kiwano melon perhaps?



or maybe the finger lime is more your speed?

Wanna eat those juice bags.

My frequent self-challenge is to de-seed an entire pomegranate without damaging any of the seeds, they end up tasting much better that way than if you just buy the juice or machine-extracted seeds like a schnook

I can strongly recommend SAC juice, which is tiny cans of mandarin juice filled with unbroken juice sacks from the mandarins. I have no idea how they separate the juice sacks and I'm not sure I want to know. It is very cheap, tasty and squishy. They pop in the mouth like little mini gushers.

Struggling to find a good picture, so here's a youtube of somebody being grossed out by the SACKS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAwbkSIW6ZY

Well don't you know I'm caught in a trap?

I think that's a smoked brisket, the outside turns pink and it's called a "smoke ring" usually the outside is seasoned forming an attractive "bark"

Here's a not unappetizing as gently caress picture of some smoked meat.



I think this is what was being aimed for.

I ask relatively few things of a mayonnaise; one is that it not be brown. I decided to poke around a little bit and see what I could find on the subject. the answer is "basically nothing," but I did find some afp.

and a clickbait puff piece from the Today show about Alton running out of oil and using mayo instead:

The pink ring is the smoke ring, similar chemistry as to why cured meat is pink even when it's cooked well through.

I have baked swordfish with a solid coating of mayo mixed with soy sauce surrounding it

You don't serve that part but it seals in the moisture during cooking

It's still not the best way but it worked fine

I know no pizza rules and all but how is it that anchovies became (or always were?) such a standard, basic, default component of a "pizza" that they are the only remotely pizza-like ingredient in that Hellmann's english muffin and mayonnaise recipe and that's somehow enough to qualify?

Like on a pizza alignment chart thing it'd be "has anchovies? ✅ IS PIZZA"

We got this economy double size boxed of mac and cheese and it was terrible, blander than anything I've had before and the noodles just melted like that in the pot and became a carb-mass.

When I was studying abroad in Japan there was a bar in our lovely little backwaters town that all the students went to get poo poo faced and their "specialty" was chicken sashimi. AFAIK nobody got sick eating it but I couldn't bring myself to try it. Honestly it's imagining the texture that kinda weirds me out more than the potential for salmonella poisoning.

I've seen some disgusting food in these threads, but this is the first thing to just make me frown. It's a full sorrowful frown of disgust and pity for anyone who would not only think this is good food, but would want to eat it.

It's just shameful.
