Okay but to be fair one of my favorite snacks as a kid was just cream cheese and hot sauce rolled up in a tortilla

At the time, it was Taco Bell hot sauce, but nowadays when I do it it's with Tapatio or Cholula

Have you never seen white queso? It's usually better than the neon orange stuff that brands like that usually are.

I'm gonna be honest, I've never done that for a cheese ball and probably never would, I was reaching mentally for outside-the-box seed-and-spice mixes I've had. Mukhwas is usually in the little dish at Indian restaurants around here, and quite strong-tasting in the mint-and-anise fashion to serve as a mouth cleanser.

There is something extremely powerful about cream cheese in any kind of roll up. I buy turkey pinwheel trays every once in a while, the kind with cream cheese and roasted peppers :discourse:

speaking of which, another Midwestern appetizer:

yeah reading about it it's either licoricey or minty, so not with the cheeseball but I was interested generally until I saw everything on amazon was stale, had no ingredients label, or was full of live bugs or rat hair

Honestly the pickle ham rolls are decent but i prefer the green onion ones, or pinwheels which is the same thing but with a flour tortilla layer

The midwest occupies the same place as Vegas and New Orleans where you go there and it just sucks poo poo but after a couple years you forget how much it sucks and go oh yeah that place is wacky I might pop by.

Then you go back and it sucks poo poo and you repeat the cycle.

At least Vegas has gambling and New Orleans has good food, the midwest is just cheese and depression

I fail to see how lasagna is a more practical or aesthetic presentation of food when you could just cook and serve noodles, sauce, cheese, and meat in separate bowls.

Unironically yes, lasagna is manky, spag bog is much better.

Lasagna always tastes kinda... stewed, like quite samey, whereas spag bog always tastes much brighter and clearer. Which I assume is just because you literally have to cook all the lasag together for a while. Better I think to do the sauce separate and then add it to the pasta and then put some cheese on top.

Separation of flavours is generally better IMO unless you're actually making a stew.

Lasagne is supposed to have layers. I think you've just had some very bad lasagne.

Quite possibly, it does put me off ordering it anywhere because anywhere that does it will generally also do spaghetti which I know I like.

If you love lasagna, try savory pancake cake.



pancake -> minced meat -> pancake -> minced meat -> (etc), then top with parmesan and bake. Using (drier than usual) sugo is also possible.

My folks are both from the Midwest and transplanted to where they are now. Everything posted in this thread about Midwestern food is both accurate and intimately familiar to me. As kids we loved unsalted potatoes (unseasoned and scalloped for fancy occasions), those ham rolls with toothpicks (mine without pickles thank you), unseasoned chicken, and Midwestern church potluck casseroles.

My parents were saints.
