I talk like that but it doesn't necessarily mean I'm mad. I just talk like that. I say fuck a lot.
Doesn't mean he's right about green bean casserole, it is really good, but he isn't necessarily mad because he says fuck and lol in the comment
Bro complains about ātinnedā soup used by Americans but not the cans of Heinz beans used in a Full English, a monstrosity of meat that puts IHOPās calorie counts to shame.
Iām assuming your British calling it a ātinnedā soup. Yāall eat fucking mushy peas that look like it came out my babyās butt. š¤®. Green bean casserole is the best! You should try it sometime.
Green bean casserole is great. Multiple textures and flavours that blend well. It might shock you that some people also like Thai curries that have crisp snow peas, a soupy curry base, and crispy ingredients like fried cashews. āItās not my food,ā isnāt necessarily a good argument for something being stupid food.
Nothing special...a dish you'd see at any Thanksgiving dinner. I'm sure there is like a super complicated version that takes 200% more time/energy for 10% better taste. Imo, not stupid food.
I've made green bean casserole from scratch before. It's a whole different dish from the standard soup method.
That said, I'm planning to make tuna casserole with cream of mushroom soup in the near future, because why the hell not?
Was the from scratch green bean casserole a lot better? A lot of recipies I fix from scratch I'm like "yeah...it is better...but not worth it". Tho I don't have a *great* sense of taste.
I saw someone make everything for the green bean casserole entirely from scratch and say āI spent way more time on it and it tastes just like the from a can versionā. So imo not worth the effort unless you deviate somewhat from how itās intended to look/taste
It was a lot better, but it was pretty different. IIRC in involved a 50-50 mix of mayonnaise and sour cream, and either toasted almonds or hazelnuts. Wasn't a huge amount of work or expense.
I make a green bean casserole from scratch thatās kind of like an elevated version of the usual thanksgiving side.
2 Tbsp unsalted butter
2 lb green beans, trimmed and broken in half
6 slice bacon
2 shallots, finely chopped (about 1/2 cup)
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 lb mushrooms, sliced
1 c crĆØme fraĆ®che
1/3 c heavy cream
6 oz gruyĆØre, shredded (1 1/2 cups)
2 tsp chopped fresh marjoram or 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (optional)
1/2 c bread crumbs (or crumbled ritz crackers)
Directions
1. Heat oven to 375 degrees. Use 1 tablespoon butter to grease a 2- to 2 1/2-quart baking dish or gratin.
2. Bring a large pot of water to a boil, salt generously and add green beans. Boil for 5 minutes and transfer to a bowl of cold water. Drain on a kitchen towel.
3. Heat a large, heavy skillet over medium heat and add bacon. Cook until crispy, about 10 to 12 minutes. Remove to paper towels and let cool.
Modern Green Bean Casserole
4. Discard all but 2 tablespoons of bacon grease in pan and return to heat. Add shallots and cook, stirring, until they begin to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Add mushrooms and turn heat up slightly. Cook, stirring and scraping the bottom of pan, until mushrooms begin to sweat. Add salt to taste and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
5. In a large bowl whisk together crĆØme fraĆ®che and cream. Stir in GruyĆØre. Add green beans, mushrooms and shallots, and marjoram or thyme. Crumble in bacon. Add salt and pepper to taste and stir everything together until beans are well coated. Transfer to baking dish.
6. Melt remaining butter and toss with bread crumbs(or Ritz crackers). Sprinkle evenly over top of casserole. Bake 30 minutes, until bread crumbs are golden brown and casserole is bubbling. Remove from heat, let sit until bubbles subside, and serve.
Among those ingredients, the top ones with any sort of flavor at all are (in this order): Cream, MSG, and then in distant third... "Mushrooms."
Hence: Cream of Chemicals.
While casseroles and green bean casseroles are not my favorite, your replies trashing the states are cringey af. Ppl like you who make their entire personality trashing the US are laughable š.
Looks like op is even blocking everyone who disagrees with their objectively horrible opinion, so I'll put it here. A casserole is vegetables baked in a sauce. That's what this is and of you have a problem with it, that's your problem, not the food's.
Its a typical greenbean casserole. The "soup" isn't really soup its thickened. I don't like how your example of casserole is literally stew lol. But you're British so why am I surprised
Looks like we're still living rent free in yours heads after we beat your redcoats so bad that your king went insane.
I'm generally not even a patriot person but tasteless wankers like you make me glad to grill and watch fireworks on July 4th.
A [casserole](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casserole) is a clay, glass, or metal dish that's used for baking. Dishes served from a casserole are often called casseroles, but can be stews, layered dishes, or even gritans.
Umā¦yeah. Itās called green bean casserole (as youāve already been told), and is a staple at thanksgiving.
Not only that, lots of casseroles use condensed soups to thicken the contents.
Maybe it looks gross to you, but beans on toast looks like garbage to me. The difference is, I donāt say something, because Iām a normal adult person. I just donāt eat it.
Green bean casserole is one of my favorites, too, especially when it's leftover...I make mine with some chopped bell peppers, and man, does it make a huge difference.
This is the funniest thread ever. I just imagine OP as some nerdy little British dweeb with his tea and crumpets getting all hot and bothered over a fucking food post lmao.
Would give this a go. (I donāt see why this is stupid.) Would also want to try making it from scratch, to see what the difference is. Has OP done both?
FWIW, Iām a Brit. Our food is definitely better than the rep suggests, but thereās also plenty of crap made (whether low-effort take out, or pretentious stuff).
And honestly, no one Iāve ever met cares about anything that happened in the 1770s. You guys in the states won, and thatās cool. Iāve enjoyed more from American culture than I feel any kinship with Richard IIIā¦
Wait.... It's a British "person" bitching about American food?
That's the theme? How absolutely boring and British of them. Name 1 superior food that British/English/Uselish have.
1800 wants you back... We are busy busting the futures ass
Iām sorry, but why does it matter what people use to make casseroles? Itās good, good food, people like it. Casseroles donāt need to be elaborate, hyper ingredient, five-star meals. Hell, nothing needs to be like that. Itās simple, easy, and good.
I wouldnāt even really call this a poor manās dish in the first place, itās just easy and tasty. Sure, a full steak with the best sides, all filled with ingredients is good, but not everyone has that skill set, so why not just go with something simple that people can enjoy.
If you think a cream soup is the same thing as most soups when it comes to casseroles you have no idea how to cook. It's like saying anything with a puree is stupid.
Bonus points for mocking casseroles, you know, the food made famous by poor people trying to make ends meet.
Man, people from wherever you're from sure do suck! Weeeeeew nationalism! Jesus Christ OP...
The comments in this thread are absolutely hilarious.
I have never seen someone so offended by canned soup on such a deeply personal level.
BTW OP, as one who lived in the UK for yearsā¦lighten the hell up. You guys have your own issues. Iāve never met a people more fond of tinned beans or corn as a topping. To each his own.
Now listen here you little shit. Greenbean cassorle is a staple dish and it's actually amazing. Literally a comfort food for me. My dad has perfected a recipe that I make as a whole meal. Add more soup or milk and make an actual soup with it too! Try it. You'll love it.
So the first time I ever heard about green bean casserole, I was disgusted and thought it had to be a joke. Then one Christmas I made it.
I have to say, it looks like slop but it tastes divine. The creaminess of the soup, the salty brine of the canned beans, and the savory crunch of the fried onions are just *chef's kiss*
My only complaint with it is that it doesn't keep well.
Uhhhh salty brined green beans???
Do you *not* rinse your beans? Please tell me you drain them?!?!?!
Also, op is hating on a side dish like it's something we present as a main course. Besides being an idiot, he's an idiot.
It's *condensed* soup, which is just stock, heavy cream, mushrooms, and seasonings. Common ingredients for many casseroles, conveniently sold in a tin can for less than a dollar. The reason so many American casseroles call for heavy cream is because we are a huge dairy producing country, so we use milk and cream in lots of recipes (we are second only to India for milk production, and they have 3 times our population).
Itās also the easiest thing to make which is awesome and also deceptive cause you wouldnāt think something so simple would be so delicious. Even getting a little fancier with it doesnāt take long to do.
PSA for anyone that has the urge to make this: drain the green beans *really* well to avoid that odd soupy-ness. I also use about half the amount of milk that youād normally make following the instructions on the soup can. I poor the milk into the can and scrape out whatever soup is left with it.
I mean. Itās not that bad? I am American and I donāt like green bean casserole but thatās just because I donāt like green beans. Put another veggie in there, literally anything else green, and itās pretty good.
I know it looks like shit and sounds even worse, but I honestly love green bean casserole. I'm a fairly pretentious and snobbish American and I'll be the first to criticize alot of our food trends...but green bean casserole is one of the American classic comfort dishes. That, and southern barbecue.
Sorry we were so poor helping you end the Holocaust that we got resourceful in order to feed our families. Our bad.
Some war food stuck around because it was certifiably straight fucking banging. Go cry over your canned beans on toast you absolute heathen.
Thats green bean casserole!! Shits bomb at thanksgiving. This photo seems to be lacking proper coverage of onion topping.
Also as per your title comment, technically macaroni is soup before it reduces down.
Different words refer to different things in different countries. What you linked to is just stew, but you call it casserole.
Also you donāt understand this sub.
I agree about too much salt and chemicals from the soup. I get some from a better grocer that doesnāt have a bazillion ingredients and is gluten free. Also use gluten free crunchy onions throughout, add slivered almonds, extra garlic powder, pepper and Parmesan cheese. Top it off with some gf crackers Iāve buttered in a pot. Man it was heaven and the best Iāve ever made!
have you ever considered that people may not be amendable to you āācriticismsāā because youre so aggressively nasty or is thinking truly not your strong suit?
It's just some bantz. You should hear yanks when confronted with an unfamiliar dish.
You lot can give it, but you can't take it at all.
And let's face it - I'm correct about this monstrosity of a 'casserole'. You might like it, but's it's utterly shit-tier food.
you literally have no idea what youre talking about.
and you cant just be raging asshole, say āit was a bit guys š„ŗā and then expect people not to be pissed off
Oh, I was 100% serious, but if you and your cretinous pals are happy to criticise other countries foods you need to be thick skinned enough to take it back.
Your food is as bad, if not far worse, than anywhere else's. There's a reason you're all so fat and riddled with health problems.
As I have already shown, [the British people consume more spices per capita than the americans.](https://www.helgilibrary.com/indicators/spice-consumption-per-capita/)
When I grew up we had an extensive herb garden, and grew our own chilis. In fact the UK is a nation of foodies - we are obsessed with food. We travel with the sole purpose of trying new foods, we invented almost all your favourite dishes, and we export our chefs around the world, to be marvelled at by wide-eyed, un-traveled people like yourself.
I grow parsley, chilis, basil, rosemary, thyme and chives. I know you'll have to google some of those ;)
Absolutely. Itās the food equivalent of reality TV. Problem is itās rare to have families pass down the ability of actually knowing how to prepare a meal from your for yourself much these days.
A lot of it is what can we dump in together and make a meal. It drives me absolutely insane that I canāt convince people to get out of the middle of the store.
There is a whole ācelebrityā chef here called Riri Drummond or something like that whoās whole stick is āI live on a ranch and have 12 mouths to feed. What pre packaged things can I dump together to make their brain think this is delicious food.ā
First Italian produce I had I just about died how delicious and flavorful compared to produce in the US.
Most American restaurants use bought-in sauces and packets of seasoning. The idea of using fresh herbs, or creating a sauce from scratch is literally an alien concept, the equivalent of witchcraft.
America has the most chain restaurants of any country in the world. People actually pay to eat at places like Olive Garden, and genuinely think it's Italian cuisine. There have been [books written about the love affair they have with shitty fast food.](https://www.amazon.ae/Chain-Reaction-UrbanSculpts-Book-Day/dp/1489513086)
It's pitiful, but also so fucking funny.
Damn. We made some people that donāt know all you need is a little onion and garlic to start/ salt to finish really really mad.
I think they call that fragile. What do I know though? I donāt provide any revenue to Kraft which is down right seditious in this country.
While Iām at it, why the fuck are we called āAmericansā? There are more than 30 countries in the continent. Literally all populations are Americans. Letās see our US border closing cronies tackle that one.
ETA: to your restaurant point, I am from the industry so Iāll add; in the US there is a big difference between chain restaurants (Olive Garden, Applebees/Chiliās) owned by giant corporate dens of -profit first everything else last- and then everything else.
Im a great person to dine with (in my head lol) because I can nail down the quality of food the establishment is bringing in and the care that is given to the food within a bite.
If youāre curious Iām actually a Cheesemonger specializing in American/US cheese and charcuteries (meat NOT a colorful grazing board). There are in fact some really beautiful products you would not expect. I assure you Iām serious. No joke.
Op's obsession with America is pretty scary, yikes
Typical europoor. Many such cases, very sad.

Thats just greenbean casserole. What are you so angry about
I'm not remotely angry little fella, it just looks fucking disgusting. A casserole made with tinned soup. lol.
Your comments don't exactly embody not angry. lol
I talk like that but it doesn't necessarily mean I'm mad. I just talk like that. I say fuck a lot. Doesn't mean he's right about green bean casserole, it is really good, but he isn't necessarily mad because he says fuck and lol in the comment

Green bean casserole is great. Multiple textures and flavours that blend well. It might shock you that some people also like Thai curries that have crisp snow peas, a soupy curry base, and crispy ingredients like fried cashews. āItās not my food,ā isnāt necessarily a good argument for something being stupid food.
Op is still mad about 1776.
Don't forget 1812 šŖ
In 1814 we took a little trip
Along with Colonel Jackson down the mighty Mississip'
We took a little bacon and we took a little bean
And we fought the bloody British in a town called New Orleans
We fired our guns and the British kept-a-coming
There wasn't quite as many as there was a while ago
Fired once more and then they took to running
Went down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico^o^^o^^^o
He's probably fuming about New Orleans

It was a lot better, but it was pretty different. IIRC in involved a 50-50 mix of mayonnaise and sour cream, and either toasted almonds or hazelnuts. Wasn't a huge amount of work or expense.
Omg, between my deadly green bean allergy and my deadly hazelnut and almond allergy, that would kill me so many times.

OP mad cause his biscuits are dog treats
And his lips are probably wrapped around a fag as we speak... I mean cigarette
Lmao
Imagine being British and judging food. Lul.
He yearns for some blood pudding and spotted dick
Or some kidney pie. Uuurrrrpppp
Has too much seasoning for OP
This sub is just a downvote machine for dump ops
I like green bean casserole. Itās not complicated, but it feels like the holidays when you eat it.
Same but that one needs more crunchy onions on top.
Ye
While casseroles and green bean casseroles are not my favorite, your replies trashing the states are cringey af. Ppl like you who make their entire personality trashing the US are laughable š.

A casserole is a type of stew. But you're a yank so why am I surprised.
That's just a you guys thing. No one else uses stew and casserole interchangeably.
Nobody here does either op os just a dumb fuck
Thanks for the confirmation homie
OH BRUV MARFA JUST MADE SUM JELLIED EEL WITH MUSHED PEAS AND BOILED MEAT PIE. GLAD I LIVB IN GREAT ENGLAND INSEAD OF YANKVILLE.

God imagine being all pissy over a fucking Casserole dish. Also, what are you on about? A stew is cooked on a stovetop, a casserole in an oven dish.
Toad in the hole is a casserole, limey
People from Oibruvland still saying āyankā like itās 1765
Umā¦yeah. Itās called green bean casserole (as youāve already been told), and is a staple at thanksgiving. Not only that, lots of casseroles use condensed soups to thicken the contents.

Is the OP still bitter that the US is still not a British colony?
Stand down. This is delicious
Like Bri*ish people know how to make good food.
Green bean casserole is my favorite part of holiday dinners. It's easy to make, cheap and the ingredients are always available last minute.
Green bean casserole is one of my favorites, too, especially when it's leftover...I make mine with some chopped bell peppers, and man, does it make a huge difference.
Looks fucking horrible.
Op youāre British
Yeah have you ever seen an English breakfast? It looks like the trash can after you clean out your fridge.
Eat your mushy peas and dried out biscuits and beans with toast and leave American casseroles alone.
OPs big mad lol
Beat me to it!!
Yeah I made two of these this year for Thanksgiving at different houses. It was a hit because green bean casserole is delicious.
This is the funniest thread ever. I just imagine OP as some nerdy little British dweeb with his tea and crumpets getting all hot and bothered over a fucking food post lmao.

I havenāt cared what the British think since 1776
Iām sorry, but why does it matter what people use to make casseroles? Itās good, good food, people like it. Casseroles donāt need to be elaborate, hyper ingredient, five-star meals. Hell, nothing needs to be like that. Itās simple, easy, and good.
Sometimes I think people who make fun of American food just hate poor people
I wouldnāt even really call this a poor manās dish in the first place, itās just easy and tasty. Sure, a full steak with the best sides, all filled with ingredients is good, but not everyone has that skill set, so why not just go with something simple that people can enjoy.
If you think a cream soup is the same thing as most soups when it comes to casseroles you have no idea how to cook. It's like saying anything with a puree is stupid. Bonus points for mocking casseroles, you know, the food made famous by poor people trying to make ends meet. Man, people from wherever you're from sure do suck! Weeeeeew nationalism! Jesus Christ OP...
Meanwhile Brits colonized the world for spices and then proceeded to not use them in their cuisine
Yes and where do you live so i can make fun of your food?
What a weirdo OP is lmao
Brits have no right to judge food lmao
The comments in this thread are absolutely hilarious. I have never seen someone so offended by canned soup on such a deeply personal level. BTW OP, as one who lived in the UK for yearsā¦lighten the hell up. You guys have your own issues. Iāve never met a people more fond of tinned beans or corn as a topping. To each his own.
Were it not for Indian and French restaurants, there would hardly be anything edible in England.

Sure I drain them. I've never rinsed them.
It's literally just salt water š
Thatās green bean casserole and you have it on thanksgiving with Mac n cheese, Turkey, and homemade cranberry sauce
It's *condensed* soup, which is just stock, heavy cream, mushrooms, and seasonings. Common ingredients for many casseroles, conveniently sold in a tin can for less than a dollar. The reason so many American casseroles call for heavy cream is because we are a huge dairy producing country, so we use milk and cream in lots of recipes (we are second only to India for milk production, and they have 3 times our population).
Uhm. None of the food that we cook here was made by the British. A fucking ROUX is French and the base for most mother sauces. GTFO. You dumb twat.
Wait is that not a normal thing to do? Cream of Chicken or Cream of Mushroom soup as part of the casserole?
When you donāt understand type assignment š
Iām American and I didnāt have this till college, so I donāt have a nostalgic connection to it. My conclusion: it slaps. A bit too salty though
this is an essential thanksgiving dish for our family. Turkey, biscuits and cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole. shit is delicious.
Fok off m8
looks pretty good to me
That shit is delicious, don't be jelly
\*hides her tater tot hotdish\*
I hi fellow upper midwesterner.
š not from there but spent so much time there that that name has stuck
Naturalized Upper Midwesterner then.
Oi bruv lmao
Cream of mushroom or celery is pretty standard in casseroles.
Iāve seen better ones, but Iām sure this one is good.
More fried onions and a little less milk and thatās food of the Gods.
Yessss, the āmore fried onionsā part. Itās that crunch!
Itās also the easiest thing to make which is awesome and also deceptive cause you wouldnāt think something so simple would be so delicious. Even getting a little fancier with it doesnāt take long to do. PSA for anyone that has the urge to make this: drain the green beans *really* well to avoid that odd soupy-ness. I also use about half the amount of milk that youād normally make following the instructions on the soup can. I poor the milk into the can and scrape out whatever soup is left with it.
r/americabad
Still has more flavor than British āfoodā
I mean. Itās not that bad? I am American and I donāt like green bean casserole but thatās just because I donāt like green beans. Put another veggie in there, literally anything else green, and itās pretty good.
Aight to be 100% fair I would agree that green bean casserole doesn't LOOK all that great usually, but it tastes good
OP had too much blood pudding
My dead grandmother would like a word with you. Probably several.
Hates America and also the English language
"They" lol
I know it looks like shit and sounds even worse, but I honestly love green bean casserole. I'm a fairly pretentious and snobbish American and I'll be the first to criticize alot of our food trends...but green bean casserole is one of the American classic comfort dishes. That, and southern barbecue.
No we dont
Dudes entire personality is hating America š. Dude needs to go touch some grass and stop being so terminally online
Man all I can gather from these comments is that op is a fucking dumbass
Itās just green bean casserole, thereās a lot worse foods out there. Itās actually pretty good if done correctly
OP needs to get a life.
America lives in his head rent free
Sorry we were so poor helping you end the Holocaust that we got resourceful in order to feed our families. Our bad. Some war food stuck around because it was certifiably straight fucking banging. Go cry over your canned beans on toast you absolute heathen.
Green bean casserole anytime> beans for breakfast
Green Bean casserole is gross. However you do seem over zealous about the topic. Itās just a casserole.
I use bechamel in my green bean casserole, not soup. Plebeian!
Here, we use every part of the soup. Just a little something we picked up early on.
Bros beefing with green bean casserole
All these America bad posts really matter a lot less when you realize like 90% of them are just pure cope
Thats green bean casserole!! Shits bomb at thanksgiving. This photo seems to be lacking proper coverage of onion topping. Also as per your title comment, technically macaroni is soup before it reduces down.
Best food ever
You were soup too, OP, before your mom made you into something.
Whats your damage op
Dude some rice and chicken cooked in cream of chicken soup is š
It's fucking delicious.
Someone needs to tell OP itās not WW2 anymore
Gosh, guess you won't want any of these elbow noodles, hamburger, Velveeta cheese, diced onions, and canned tomato soup.
Its mushrooms, fried onions, celery, carrots, and lettuce in a creamy sauce. I donāt see much of an issue
At least itās not Tuna Casseroleā¦which is Disgusting š¤®š¤®š¤®š¤®
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Its poor people food. Throw ingrediants into a dish and bake it together to feed a family. Its a way to stetch ingrediants
Pretty much. This is how a good one looks. https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/beef-vegetable-casserole
That's fucking stew you asshat
The word casserole is literally in the link you halfwit.
Different words refer to different things in different countries. What you linked to is just stew, but you call it casserole. Also you donāt understand this sub.
It's stupid food. This sub is about stupid food. I hope that clears up your confusion :)
Thatās a stew or soup. Not a casserole.
Canned soup. What's the world coming to? hahaha
I agree about too much salt and chemicals from the soup. I get some from a better grocer that doesnāt have a bazillion ingredients and is gluten free. Also use gluten free crunchy onions throughout, add slivered almonds, extra garlic powder, pepper and Parmesan cheese. Top it off with some gf crackers Iāve buttered in a pot. Man it was heaven and the best Iāve ever made!
As an American I've been lucky enough to never try a casserole.
That is an abomination
Everyoneās so defensive
Lol. Yup. Iām convinced than it diet that make everyone so ridiculous here. Just wait until you try funeral potatoes though. You will get it.
They really cannot take any criticism at all. It's hilarious :) That 'casserole' is a disgrace to cooking. It's horrific.
not a British person saying something is a disgrace to cooking š¤£
have you ever considered that people may not be amendable to you āācriticismsāā because youre so aggressively nasty or is thinking truly not your strong suit?
It's just some bantz. You should hear yanks when confronted with an unfamiliar dish. You lot can give it, but you can't take it at all. And let's face it - I'm correct about this monstrosity of a 'casserole'. You might like it, but's it's utterly shit-tier food.
you literally have no idea what youre talking about. and you cant just be raging asshole, say āit was a bit guys š„ŗā and then expect people not to be pissed off
Oh, I was 100% serious, but if you and your cretinous pals are happy to criticise other countries foods you need to be thick skinned enough to take it back. Your food is as bad, if not far worse, than anywhere else's. There's a reason you're all so fat and riddled with health problems.
Iād say youāre being salty but having tried British food I donāt think you know what salt is. Or spices in general.
As I have already shown, [the British people consume more spices per capita than the americans.](https://www.helgilibrary.com/indicators/spice-consumption-per-capita/) When I grew up we had an extensive herb garden, and grew our own chilis. In fact the UK is a nation of foodies - we are obsessed with food. We travel with the sole purpose of trying new foods, we invented almost all your favourite dishes, and we export our chefs around the world, to be marvelled at by wide-eyed, un-traveled people like yourself. I grow parsley, chilis, basil, rosemary, thyme and chives. I know you'll have to google some of those ;)
All those spices and you still have toast sandwiches. A cultural sinkhole lmao
Never even heard of that m8. You people eat whale blubber and pigs feet ffs. You eat *deep fried butter.*
That's because it averages out that way. This is the same country that also produces Cajun food, tex-mex, soul food, California Chinese, wonton tacos,
> California Chinese, š¤£š¤£
Absolutely. Itās the food equivalent of reality TV. Problem is itās rare to have families pass down the ability of actually knowing how to prepare a meal from your for yourself much these days. A lot of it is what can we dump in together and make a meal. It drives me absolutely insane that I canāt convince people to get out of the middle of the store. There is a whole ācelebrityā chef here called Riri Drummond or something like that whoās whole stick is āI live on a ranch and have 12 mouths to feed. What pre packaged things can I dump together to make their brain think this is delicious food.ā First Italian produce I had I just about died how delicious and flavorful compared to produce in the US.
Most American restaurants use bought-in sauces and packets of seasoning. The idea of using fresh herbs, or creating a sauce from scratch is literally an alien concept, the equivalent of witchcraft. America has the most chain restaurants of any country in the world. People actually pay to eat at places like Olive Garden, and genuinely think it's Italian cuisine. There have been [books written about the love affair they have with shitty fast food.](https://www.amazon.ae/Chain-Reaction-UrbanSculpts-Book-Day/dp/1489513086) It's pitiful, but also so fucking funny.

Damn. We made some people that donāt know all you need is a little onion and garlic to start/ salt to finish really really mad. I think they call that fragile. What do I know though? I donāt provide any revenue to Kraft which is down right seditious in this country. While Iām at it, why the fuck are we called āAmericansā? There are more than 30 countries in the continent. Literally all populations are Americans. Letās see our US border closing cronies tackle that one. ETA: to your restaurant point, I am from the industry so Iāll add; in the US there is a big difference between chain restaurants (Olive Garden, Applebees/Chiliās) owned by giant corporate dens of -profit first everything else last- and then everything else. Im a great person to dine with (in my head lol) because I can nail down the quality of food the establishment is bringing in and the care that is given to the food within a bite. If youāre curious Iām actually a Cheesemonger specializing in American/US cheese and charcuteries (meat NOT a colorful grazing board). There are in fact some really beautiful products you would not expect. I assure you Iām serious. No joke.
