Mayonnaise on Sushi. WTF are people thinking?

 

[M0nochromatic]

If you'r eating at a new location, or a strangers house, and you salt and pepper the food/pour condiments on it without tasting it first, you'r commiting a crime.

 

[hobblygobbly]

Don't be crazy. You can't put that in the toaster, for it is bread, not toast.



The juice in steak isn't blood. It's a type of protein, and it changes as you cook it as you alter the iron oxidation, and with it, the flavor.

I know that but I'm talking about the actual taste of blood in some steaks I've had, I don't know if it seeps into those juices but there's an obvious blood taste, some better prepared steaks have it, some don't. Maybe it's just better cuts or something.

[Makai]

Literal food crime

Beer and this delicacy gets me so fucking heated...it's the only time I actually force my wife for sex. Seriously, it drives me nuts how good this combination is.

 

[Bjoern the Smexy]

What happens if you stick this in a toaster?

Then it's called "taosted bread".

 

[gai_shain]

What happens if you stick this in a toaster?

something like this, but this picture looks like it was put in the oven and not in a toaster

 

[Fug Slanderson]

Ketchup on a cheeseburger. I like ketchup. I like cheese. But I do not like when the two are combined.

Mayonnaise on Sushi. WTF are people thinking?

It's pretty common in Japan, but their mayo is also kinda different. It's not great but better than you'd think.

 

[Commanche Raisin Toast]

I can't figure out how to use the bullet list feature on here.

*Automatically putting mayo or mustard on a burger as a standard practice. Just put it on the side please.
*Sweet pickles/relish
*Making crazy topping or prep choices for a dish just for the sake of making it wild and wacky, like random pickled veggies, mixing something stupid with mayo and calling it a fancy sauce or something, etc.
*Well done buffalo/bison- it's supposed to be eaten medium at most
*Using gamey duck meat in situations it clearly doesn't belong in

 

[Playsage]

- Fuck mayonaisse on Everything but sandwiches
- Sauces on pizza (A friend used to do it)
- Cheese on pasta with fish and/or sea food
- Leaving pizza's crustes
- Drinking wine to pizza
- Everything that has a strong smell of vinegar
- Dipping "elaborated" biscuits in chocolate or Nutella (if they are already chocolate-based it feels so redundant)
- calling "vegan salami" or " vegan bacon" something that actually isn't salami or bacon

 

[Rel]

Using shredded cheese of any kind on a poutine instead of cheese curds.

 

[Mossybrew]

- Well done steak
- Beans and/or Rice in a Carne Asada Burrito

 

[Shpeshal Nick]

Most things I see come out of America really.

 

[Dereck]

- Leaving pizza's crustes

My man

 

[GKSilKamina]

- Ketchup on hot dogs
- Pineapple on pizza
- Well done steaks
- Non-runny egg yolk
- "Birthday cake flavored" cookies or ice cream
- Canned scrambled eggs. Seriously, it takes like two minutes to make scrambled eggs why the fuck would you ever buy the canned variety if you have access to fresh eggs
- Canned hamburgers/cheeseburgers
- Canned whole chicken
- Canned raisin bread

Mayonnaise on Sushi. WTF are people thinking?

I have never seen anyone do that before. Why?!?!

 

[EvilKatarn]

Wasting food.

 

[PSqueak]

This only applies to my current living place:

Street Hotdog vendor that uses cheap super market buns.

Should be punishable by jail time, super market buns are for home made hotdogs only you maniac!

 

[Capra]

Putting a shitload of food on your plate, barely even touching it, and then throwing it all away.

Most of the other people at my school's dining halls piss me off for this very reason.

 

[Symphonia]

British food. At least English food, can't speak for the other regions.

Elaborate.

 

[Hilbert]

I have never seen anyone do that before. Why?!?!

Sometimes you will see a roll with a drizzle of flavored mayo based something on top. I think that is what they are talking about.

 

[LyleLanley]

Some of you have horrible taste. That is all.

 

[mattwhite924]

• Anything above Tabasco in terms of spicyness. You don't wanna die? Don't eat too spicy. #lifehacks

But Tabasco is nothing. At least give me something spicy enough that I can feel it.

But honestly, there's no such thing as too spicy.

 

[RowdyReverb]

Sweet salsa is disgusting. In fact, anything tangy that is made sweet is a crime. Sweet pickles/relish, sweet ketchup, etc. all gross

 

[Bjoern the Smexy]

Elaborate.

i think he means the cliched way of thinking that all English food at least looks disgusting as fuck when he is actually just 50% right with that sentiment.
Though the thing is that most of the time the uglier it looks the tastier it is (which totally boggles my mind).

But Tabasco is nothing. At least give me something spicy enough that I can feel it.

Yes there is. If you developed a fucking stomach ulcer from eating fucking spicy food all the time it's probably too fucking spicy (excuse my language, but one of my best friends had this happen to him, which was definitely not a fun thing to experience).

I'm curious to know which food he considers ugly.

I don't/can't think of any English dish that looks disgusting.

 

[Phu]

This is toast from where I am from (germany)

and thats what we think off when talking about bread most of the time

What do you call the first one before it is toasted? Is it not also bread?

 

[mattwhite924]

It's a common misconception that spicy food causes ulcers. Capsaicin can actually help with them. It has several other health benefits as well.

Japanese mayo is great. Much prefer it to the bland normal mayo. Its a little like Heinz salad cream

 

[MicH]

I'm not German, but in Denmark the pre-sliced, pre-packaged store-bought bread like the first picture is typically called toast bread or sandwich bread.

 

[Unmasked Ferret]

Mustard in mac n' cheese.

 

[Angry Grimace]

The concept of well-done steak actually confuses me

 

[keffri]

• Nutella

 

[entremet]

Overcooking chicken.

 

[E92 M3]

I don't get the big deal about ketchup on hotdogs.

More or less. I was, of course, not too serious. It's not as if every English dish sucks. Fish and Chips is edible, Roast Beef is fine, Chicken tikka masala (if we count it) is good as well. It's just that that there's more than enough dishes or variations that (at the very least) look bad or seem like an unfortunate combination. English breakfast, which is the go-to example, is just horrendous.

 

[Anoregon]

Mustard in mac n' cheese.

What the fuck, I've never even heard of that

 

[A Fish Aficionado]

Whenever there is a thread like this, I'm just glad I'm not picky at all.

 

[Lightning Count]

Ketchup on anything is horrible.

 

[A Fish Aficionado]

Mustard in mac n' cheese.

Powdered mustard is a very common ingredient in mac and cheese.

 

[gai_shain]

the first one is toasted toast, its just toast if its not toasted

 

[Gutek]

Raisins in anything (except in chocolate)
BBQ or pastrami on French bread
Peas in Biryani
Deep fried Pierogis
Fruit "teas"
Sweet pickles

 

[DiipuSurotu]

Nutella is fucking gross.

 

[A Fish Aficionado]

Hm, you're right, I can't find anything about the rice thing. I could swear I read it on a store-bought pack of rice, but I don't remember the brand.

In my experience, American fruits and vegetables are unnaturally photogenic compared to produce from other countries. The most prominent example would be American apples, which are extremely glossy and shiny and fake-looking. They're waxed with shellac and/or (FDA-approved) chemical waxes.

Unlike natural "wax," the kind of wax they add later to make the apples more visually appealing doesn't prevent decay. I find American apples have a tendency to be overripe on the inside even though they don't look it from the outside, unlike apples from pretty much any other country, which actually look real.

You can find a ton of sources for the produce thing being bad in various ways, which differ based on the type of produce; e.g. for apples, some of the chemical waxes can break down into carcinogens.

EWG is not a legitimate source. Might as well source food babe or Mercola.

Shenanigans, there is no bread that pastrami is not delicious on.

I thought this thread would be about food wastage, or at the very least animal cruelty.

 

[Unmasked Ferret]

What the fuck, I've never even heard of that

I have a friend who insist it's good, the rest of us disregard his opinion.

Powdered mustard is a very common ingredient in mac and cheese.

That's a little different from pouring mustard into the mac and cheese as if he were putting it onto a hot dog.

 

[KorrZ]

A well done steak is a crime for sure but the real criminals are people who cook a steak well done and then proceed to dip it in ketchup to eat it.

 

[Snkfanatic]

Nutella is fucking gross.
