The Food Discussion Thread I

[Infected Mushroom]

its not a thing in Europe as much?

On fries, certainly. On bread ? Not so much. But the composition and texture is quite different from the hellmans stuff.
Also flavours vary from country to country - the Belgian stuff is quite sour, the Dutch relatively sweet.


Of course, if you truly want to talk controversial foodstuffs, we can talk about tea and how that should never go near a microwave OR milk.

I think you guys are bigger on mustards overall right? =)

[Infected Mushroom]

yes tell me more about this mysterious white goo the americans seem to love tasting.

American mayonnaise

Vegetable oil soybean and canola, water, distilled vinegar, egg yolk, high fructose corn syrup, contains less than 2 percent of salt, spice mustard seed, calcium disodium EDTA to protect flavor.

It seems I was mistaken. Most ppl make mayo with sunflower oil, well if we make it, we use olive oil..

I'm impressed by this extensive knowledge

I like to cook and make things from scratch.
That said, recipes are easily found on the internet.
But thank you.

We have 11 full sized cooking books, and 10 mini recipes booklets.
In our "ancient" Amsterdam cook book there are recipes for all kinds of condiments..

I'm okay with cooking, but I don't like the clean up =)

Microwave? Does anyone do that?

On the subject of mayonnaise, I don’t like it. Maybe out of every sandwich with mayonnaise on it, I’ve liked one, but not because of the mayonnaise.

And I’ve never heard of American mayonnaise...is ours just a lot worse?

Mayo is one of my favorite condiments, along with BBQ sauce and ranch dressing.

I'm not sure about the differences between our mayonnaise and yours, but it is probably my favorite condiment. Practically every time I use it is for sandwiches. Trying versions of it created elsewhere in the world like in European countries or Japan would be interesting.

[Katganistan]

owww, that hurt

I still love you, mint jelly.

Boiled new potatoes wouldn't be the same without you. You're delicious with cabbage, too.

And lamb, of course.

I personally love Japanese Mayonaise the best. It's sweet and amazing on takoyaki and other Japanese foods.

Have to second this. Sometimes the normal/American mayonnaise can be too bland or sour for my liking.

I know, but -- personally -- I'm not keen on lamb.

I do like mint jelly though (and mint sauce, for a thinner, tarter accompaniment).

1. Thank you, the both of you, its been so hard lately.

2. not keen on lamb? ( I need a trembly lip emoji). Lambs are the bestest.

That sounds good...I'll be sure to try some if I have the opportunity.

Speaking of mayo and Subway, I almost always order a meatball sandwich with mayo on it when getting food there.

Fortunately for my health, I very rarely go to Subway at all, even before the virus reached the US.

I do turkey on honey oats, toasted with lettuce, tomatoes, olives, and cheddar cheese. For condiments I pick olive oil and ranch with salt and pepper

And I like to combo with soda and chips

My meal when I ate there was usually toasted honey oat tuna melt with pepper jack, spinach, onions, pickles, olives, lettuce, spicy mustard, light mayonnaise, vinaigrette, sweet onion, Caesar, and salt and pepper. Don't mind how soaked that sounds—

[An Alan Smithee Nation]

I've never been in a Subway. The shops smell really unpleasant to me, it's not at all like the smell of a bakery.
