/ck/ - Food & Cooking

yeah desu our food mostly sucks shit lmao
we have no spices then once we stole them from other countries rich people decided they sucked so didnt even keep any just sold em off

haggis is good tho english people are just losers

>>14021802
No wonder why you drink so much. You have to to think this monstrosity is good.

>>14021768
English food is really good, it just looks gross

>>14021802
full breaky is cool though

>>14021768
Imagine being a nation with food so bad that you have to compete with Taco Bell and still lose.

english food is the greatest in the world only poofters and nonces disagree

you can lead a horse to water...

England still has the best deserts tho....

>>14022029
I've had pasties and it's like a shitty version of a pot pie, PJW is mentally ill.

Sour grapes.
That's literally it.
Bongs are just the epitome of sour grapes. Even when they were kings of the world they still refused to acknowledge their own creations were absolute fucking trash because BUH DEN DA NUH WE BRIISH GOOD

>>14022227
Name three and why.

>>14022246
Trifle because layer
Banoffee pie because banoffee
Apple pie because apple

>>14021768
mexican food is overrated in the sense that it is pure poverty food and much of its "renown" in the states is because mexican immigrants are the largest non-white diaspora and so saying you love mexican food (taco trucks in every street corner) is an easy way to signal you're not an evul nahtzee who wants a border wall

there's a reason why there's so little mexican food in places like europe, east asia, and canada, whereas cuisine from india/japan/france are much more wide ranging and universally popular

>>14022256
thats not to defend paul watson or anglo cuisine of course

>>14022227
France exist. And then Italy

>>14022253
I'll give you triffle.
I'd even consider giving you "weird bong name for banana cream pie" for historical purposes, but listing Pie A and Pie B doesn't count as separate things.
Fuck is it with bongs and making everything a pie anyway?

>>14022253
>apple pie
The desperation of bongs. Sorry, there is nothing more all american than apple pie.

>>14022271
Their general cooking is definitely better but they still are behind the British in terms of sweets. Britain has a very long history in baking and confectionery and has given us some staples that many of us take for granted.

>>14022276
For fucks sake,cooking is giving fancy names to the same thing over and over again. Or are you going to tell me tagliatelle ringitone and farfalle "are just pasta mate". If i said my favorite dishes were lasagna spaghetti Alfredo and taglierini bolognese would you say "that's just one dish"?

>>14021768
>cheesy beans on toast

Replace the toast with a tortilla and add shitloads of spices and you've basically got 90% of Spic cuisine tho

>>14022279

Bitch apple pie was thing before america was even colonized.

>>14022276
>Fuck is it with bongs and making everything a pie anyway?

Anglos don't usually eat many fruit pies, that's more of a German thing that the USA adopted

>>14022310
> If i said my favorite dishes were lasagna spaghetti Alfredo and taglierini bolognese would you say "that's just one dish"?
No, because those are all distinct dishes.
If you said "my favorite dishes are spaghetti and meatballs, spaghetti alfredo, and spaghetti bolognese" then I'd call you a fucking retard.

>>14022319
>people put apple inside of pastry before 1492

Amazing!

>>14022336
If those are considered different dishes then so can apple pie and "banana" pie. Even apple pie can be made different enough to be a completely different dish than the original.
>"but they are just crusts and filling"
Those dishes are sauce and pasta.

>>14022319
Pathetic bong, the USA is where foods from every country get transformed into the superior version. Now get in the corner with the salty Italians.

>>14021768
Bet she would change her mind if you showed her that Mexicans also have slop on a plate.

>>14022276
Banoffee pie and apple pie are completely different you fucking speshtard

>>14022373
>.t salty country with no history or culture of their own

>>14022239
Take that back, dick head

>>14022373
Just because you deep fry everything doesn't make them any better.

>>14022227
I thought it rained plenty there?

>>14022391
That is where you are objectively wrong.

>>14022365
>If those are considered different dishes then so can apple pie and "banana" pie
No.
See the spaghetti comparison.
If you listed 3 types of lasagna I'd say the same thing.
Don't be a reductionist asshole.

>>14022378
Pie A and Pie B and just Pie. You can differentiate them but if that's your choice for "best desserts" then your cuisine is "This actual unique thing, and Pie"

>>14022423
>Don't be a reductionist asshole.
YOU ARE THE ONE DOING THAT
Spaghetti Alfredo and spaghetti and meat balls are completely different dishes or do you thin changing the width and length of the pasta magically means it's another dish but changing the cooking method and ingredients doesn't?

>>14022441
>YOU ARE THE ONE DOING THAT
No I'm not, calm the fuck down.
>Spaghetti Alfredo and spaghetti and meat balls are completely different dishes
Stop moving goalposts faggot.
Is vanilla ice cream and chocolate ice cream two separate desserts, or is the dessert "ice cream with a different flavor"?

I asked for three of the best bong desserts.
I got a a layered dessert, a pie, and a pie.
The flavor of the pie is irrelevant. It's still two pies.

>>14022457
>Stop moving goalposts faggot.
>If you said "my favorite dishes are spaghetti and meatballs, spaghetti alfredo, and spaghetti bolognese" then I'd call you a fucking retard

Come on now

>>14022465
Reread the post, retard.

>>14022457
>The flavor of the pie is irrelevant. It's still two pies.
Gain how the pie is baked id different how the filling is made is different. You can't call them the same thing unless you are willing to call 80% of pasta dishes "the same thing" because they are boiled pasta with sauce.

>>14022469
Follow the conversation brainlet. The one moving goal posts is you.

>>14022423
>>14022457
banoffee pie is served cold and is open-top, and contains whipped cream on the top, then toffee and banana (sometimes in the form of a layer of toffee, followed by a layer of banana). depending on the specific recipie, the"pastry" of the pie will often just be on the bottom, and can be more of a biscuit base, making it more similar to a cheesecake than your average pie.
an apple pie on the other hand is a much more traditional style of pie, with a closed top, often served hot.
despite them both having the word "pie" in their name, apple pie and banoffee pie are really nothing alike.

>>14022472
>unless you are willing to call 80% of pasta dishes "the same thing" because they are boiled pasta with sauce.
Hyperbole does you no service here.
Lasagna is fundamentally different from Spagoot meetyboi. Two different pies are still made fundamentally the same, which is effectively equivalent to "bake crust with filling".

>>14022476
I haven't moved a single goalpost.
Name three distinct desserts.
Blueberry, apple, and cranberry pie is all just "pie".

>>14022481
They are distinct within the realm of pie, I never questioned that.
But in terms of dessert, they are categorically both "pie".

>>14022485
they're actually very distinct in terms of desserts as a whole, as i explained quite well. if you don't have a problem saying that apple pie and cheesecake aren't the same dessert, you also shouldn't have a problem with saying that banoffee pie and apple pie aren't the same dessert.

>>14022485
>"bake crust with filling".
boil pasta with sauce
How is spaghetti Alfredo different than tagliatelle bolongnese?
The thickness of the pastas and its shape? the pies do that as well. The sauce? the filling is completely different in the pies. How the sauce is mixed with the pasta? well the layers work completely different on a banoffee and apple pie. TH cooking method of the sauce? again same thing the filling is prepared completely different in each case

>>14022485
in fact you don't even bake a bonoffee pie, you leave it in the fridge to set like a cheesecake

>>14022029
oh, look, it's an empanada

Imagine not liking mexican food.

>>14022596
Yeah, imagine having working taste buds.

>>14022029
I mean, if thats his taco than yeah, obviously a pastie would be better. Thats a shit taco, m8.

>>14022605
>>14022610
It must be terrible not to know what good food tastes like.

>>14022498
>>14022503
>>14022513
Imagine being this upset because somebody called you out for listing pies twice

>>14022373
Ì'm american, and texan, and you're wrong. What the fuck is texmex if not objectively inferior mexican food?

>>14022613
> yeah bro just let me put half a gallon of lime juice and some chilies in there. what? you don't taste anything but lime and chilies? oh dude that's how real Mexican food tastes haha, you aren't going to complain about the taste are you? i bet you just like the taste of plain bread brosef.

Colorado mexican food is the best. The inside of this burrito is pure meat.

>>14022596
imagine the smell of someone who eats that shit.

>worst cuisine in the world

>>14022613
Its weird, you're taking two people with opposite points and insulting us both.
My point is there are a bunch of tasty as hell tacos and greasy ground meat and processed yellow cheese only represents a small portion of the taco pantheon.

I would take a cornish pasty over the picture the twitman posted.
But I would take a shrimp taco with salsa fresca or taco al pastor over a cornish pasty.

>>14022712
>shrimp taco
You objectively have the worst taste in mexican food and food in general.

>>14022702
>your highest cuisine looks like stuff you'd buy from a vending machine in a french train station

>>14022731
yeah, nah, ur a cunt.

If there's one thing the French know it's good food.

Nobody can underestimate how much people love american food. Foodie faggots dunked on once again.

>>14022780
>Fast-food fans lined up for their final fix this evening before McDonald's closes its doors amid the coronavirus shutdown.

You fucking homosexual.

>>14022760
Thats fair. I live in a desert and I don't need to have my meals to warm me up as much as you guys up in the wind and rain might.

You can convince me based on the day and weather your Brit food is as good as baja mexican food, but you'll probably never convince me its better.

If mexican food isn't unhealthy and greasy then it is terrible mexican food.

>>14022827
If the cheese is eaten sparingly, that actually isn't an unhealthy dish at all. It's just carbs and fiber and maybe some protein in those enchiladas.

If American food is so good why did we have to send a footballer over to teach you all to cook? What series is kitchen nightmares on now 30??

Beans on toast tastes really good even if it doesn't look great. It's beans in a spiced tomatoe sauce. It's comfort food the same way Mac and cheese is in the US. It's not supposed to be some deep rich meal, it's just a good comfy meal with minimal effort.

What people don't realize is the quality of produce is different in bongistan. Our animals aren't raised on hormones and eating cement. If you have good produce you don't need to cover it in spices and herbs to disguise the taste. Only low quality and nearly rotten meat needs that sort of treatment. When you complain about a lack of spices you show how stupid you are. A good steak doesn't need to be KFCed now does it?

>>14022256\
Probably because any Mexican food outside of Mexico and southwestern US is absolute trash.

>>14022839
At that place they dump a shit load of cheese on it and its amazing. If it isn't unhealthy then it is bad mexican food.

>>14022675
>Colorado
>not being made of half green chilies

>>14022886
Under the cheese is a bath of green chili. Its amazing.

>>14022890
what place?

>>14022873
Mexican cuisine in general is trash. I live in south American and all the restaurants opened by Mexicans here failed while the Indian ones are still going strong.

>>14022896
Santiago's in Denver. Its a local chain.

>>14022839
not all mexican food looks like that but if it does and you were to say "hold the cheese" you best believe that lard fried shit will still be unhealthy....still good but still unhealthy

>>14022760
>you can see your breath inside
Please, give us more cuisine advice, anon who has not even discovered fire. Surely your tastes are refined.

>>14022864
You overestimate differences in food quality. Just because we have garbage available to us, doesn't mean we exclusively eat the garbage food.

Your "looks bad tastes good" idea is also at play. Just because something looks cheap or comes from a drive through window, doesn't mean it isn't tasty as fuck.

But please, tell us more about how your <X> on a <Y> with <SLOP> on top is the superior cuisine, because your <X> was raised on your friend's filthy, unregulated farm.

God i miss green chili so much

>>14023021
>the food snobbery is just Europoors blowing smoke out their asses to feel better about being irrelevant in the modern day
That's just Europe in general these days. Watching Euros babble on and on online about how superior they are for accomplishments from hundreds of years ago or things that don't really matter much like the precise method of preparing a certain dish honestly comes off as a senile old man reminiscing on the "good old days". Take away the smug veneer and it's actually pretty sad.

>>14021768
love taking a vinegary post-brekkie shit to chest especially if it comes from a bonafide slag.

The British declared a war on food in 1776.
I do cherish sticky toffee pudding with custard, strawberries and cream, and also Eton mess.

>spics talking shit about food when they eat ant eggs

lmao

>>14021768
Bongs still have this batshit crazy imperialist attitude. They are the worst tourists and think every foreign country is inferior and should conform to their tastes. Meanwhile literally every other country just laughs at them.

>>14023381
That sounds a lot like the stereotypical American tourist. The pommy tourists I've met have no recollection of any empire.

>>14023381
From what I've seen displayed on 4chan "laughs" isn't the verb I'd use.

>>14023385
Nah, most Americans who travel abroad are usually disappointed with how everyone tries to cater to their tastes (like, we have all that shit at home and want to try something new), so usually tread off the beaten path. Bongs take the tourist bus during the day and go back to the hostel over the ex-pat bong pub where they can meet "new people" and talk about all the crazy shit they saw on their Disneyland tour while getting drunk and watching "football".

>>14022756
I love how every map of bad American traits in the USA corresponds so well with maps of the black populations in the USA.

All cuisine is boring because they only have hot or cold food.

>>14023413
>Americans usually tread off the beaten path
I've seen yanks complain the lack of elevators, and take extra insulin pills before stuffing themselves at restaurants, and everyone in the building can identify where they're from because they never keep their voices down.
Us bongs have a bad reputation when we're abroad, but you're delusional if you think you're seen as any better.

>Youtuber makes 5 minute humble and tasty British snack
>Americans: This is the pinnacle of British cuisine!

>>14024540
>and everyone in the building can identify where they're from because they never keep their voices down.
Honestly I've never seen Americans as being particularly loud compared to other nationalities, Spanish, Italians, Chinese and Scots are the loudest in my own experience.

>>14021768
>implying even the eternal anglo food is worse than flip food
nothing is worse than low class city flip food. nothing.

>>14022319

well I would assume then that basically nothing is british because I’m sure someone was eating it or doing it somewhere else first

>>14024551
oi mate lets make a toast buttie eh

>>14022596
why did they deep fry their tortillas instead of superior griddle?

Bacon, apple pie, apple cider

>>14022383
You're right I'm more just angry that no one has killed PJW and turned his body into a fine paste, I'm sorry anon I have nothing against pasties I just didn't love them when I had them, but it's probably a great comfort food if you grew up with it.

Have a great day anon.

Don't you mean the mass produced versions? Anything american is trash, which is why you love Gordon Ramsey so much
