It's pretty much processed lard with occasional meat-esque flavors.

"taco in a bag"



Uh, I don't know what to tell you. Did you just make this up?


Taco in a bag is a thing I have eaten, although here it was called frito pie and it was just chili, onions and cheese dumped into a bag of fritos. It's obviously trash but sometimes trash is what you are after.

The worst things I've eaten were some soup a friend of mine got at a sushi place. I don't know the name but it was a clear lookin broth with some horrifically funky taste and egg custard on top. It was miserable. The other was a Durian fruit bubble tea. Durian fruit tastes as bad as it smells, do not believe the lies.

my dad got me to try braunschweiger as a teenager and I liked it because I'm a bad person. I enjoy it occasionally, but the store that sold the 'good' brand closed. so whenever my dad goes somewhere that has it, he gets me a few slices. :3:

It's one of the grossest foods made up of otherwise non-gross ingredients.

Scrapple at least is an Amish/Pennsylvania Dutch dish that is a bunch of poo poo like hog snout and pork fat mushed together with cornmeal or some other grain type stuff into a loaf then sliced and pan fried and served with breakfast. I can see how it would qualify as a gross, weird food, but it's a local favorite where I'm from and I love it dearly.

Scrapple is the king of breakfast meats and every day that I work I eat a scrapple, egg, and cheese sandwich as a reward for being a grownup who goes to work.

Aesop Poprock posted:

I live in lancaster county and have eaten scrapple many times. Like most Amish savory foods it's extremely underwhelming and tasteless, unlike their baked goods and sweets which are generally amazing

Scrapple can be good but specifically the type you get from PA Dutch style places is just bland as hell. The Amish are also responsible for a lot of those savory jellies which as you mentioned are trash

I think this is because spices are sinful and make you start asking questions about the rest of your dull rear end life. Sweets just make you sleepy and content.


ROFL Octopus posted:

It's pretty amazing how far "lunch meat" and "manufactured meat product" go in terms of making things sound appetizing.

e: Apparently the closest equivalent we have in the US is bologna, basically an unholy fusion of beef and pork, with all kinds of artificial ingredients thrown in. I can't give any kind of opinion one way or another because I haven't had it in 15+ years.

Bologna is loving great if you don't just but the cheapest poo poo you can find. Venison bologna is a super common thing to make with deer scraps and is one of the best sandwich meats out there.

FYI I am super sensitive to the honor of my meatpaste friends and will be compelled to defend them at every opportunity. You guys have no idea the taste pleasures you are missing out on.

Braunschweiger is good with mustard + bread and butter pickle + onion.
That Devon stuff looks kinda like Taylor Pork Roll, which is a salty, not-great meat product popular in New Jersey. Fried bologna is pretty tasty, to people from Pittsburgh this is called a "jumbo sandwich" for some reason.

I'm going to buy olive loaf today, to try it.

Liver and onions can be delicious if you cook it right. The problem is most people try to cook it like salisbury steak when you only have to sear it and let it simmer in the juices from the onions for a little.

^^^ Pissy bitch babies might balk at eating tripe but a well-prepared menudo or plate of crispy tripa tacos is life-changing, doubly so when under (or the morning following) the influence of alcohol.

As far as lovely Mexican food goes, I gotta submit moldy corn scrapings instead:



Huitlacoche, also known as corn smut, consists of some idiot's bad corn harvest that was overgrown with a local fungus. Instead of throwing it away like any sane, decent person would do, he convinced you that what resulted was actually food, probably because you're an idiot too. Usually prepared for breakfast with eggs in my experience, this doesn't even have the benefit of being one of those "looks gross, tastes great" foods. Instead it's this kinda flavorless filler-tasting item that picks up the taste of whatever it was prepared with, kinda ruining the point of including it in the first place.
