The Food Discussion Thread I

Looking at the poll, I don't really ever eat fast food, except Dunkin Donuts for their convenient, if inconsistent tasting, coffee. I'm there far too often. Taco Bell used to be the one fast food place I'd go to (on the weekends, shocker), but with my party-fiend side of my personality finally dwindling down as I exit College, so does my 12AM Taco Bell runs.

Denzel: "We gonna do ^%& about it. Close it up, throw it back in the trunk. Everybody go home and have some pumpkin pie, some warm apple cider."

Anybody ever had pumpkin pie with warm apple cider?

By the way, what's the difference between apple juice and apple cider? And would he be talking about the alcoholic or non-alcoholic type?

Apple juice is more heavily filtered, and then is pasteurized so that it stays good longer. Cider is made from mashed apples, so there's more pulp, and it's not pasteurized.

Hot alcoholic cider sounds absolutely disgusting. He would have been talking about the non-alcoholic variant, which is a traditional autumn beverage, alongside pumpkin spice everything

I see...

It sounds delicious though. Has anyone tried this combination? Is it a big thing in America?

Hot apple cider, a cinnamon stick and copious amounts of rum is a lovely drink, especially if you are outdoors on a cold day.

Speaking of which, I am probably going to have a McDonalds meal later. This time, a Big Mac. And 2 servings of fries. And a large Milo.

They serve Milo as a drink option?

Over here we only get coke, 7 up, some limited ice teas for combos

Oh yeah, I mostly went for Milo. It extinguishes the mouth fires, and I also really love their version of Milo. It's nothing special, tbh, but... it has a different taste. Quite like it!

It sounds like an interesting combination. I would like to try sometime.

I named the nation after my favorite electronic dance music band.

I like listening to music like this when I’m working on threads, RPs, and drawings. It makes me think.

I love Pizza My Heart! There's also a spot south of SF called Velo City and they make their own mozzarella and sauces. Combine that with pineapple pizza and it's delish~

While I strongly disagree with your lack of interest in the diversity of other pizzas, we are at least adults of refined tastes. May your slice of pineapple pizza be as delicious as mine, may the cheese be cheesy

Pineapple on any savory food is anti-based. Cringe, even.
If I want to add cloyingly-sweet cubes of fruitiness that doesn't blend well with the rest of the dish, then I'd go all-in and toss in those cheap fruit pieces that're packaged in those tiny plastic containers with disgustingly-artificial liquid.

I've been snacking on some packs of sugared dried blueberries today. It's a brand called SnackMate.

It's like raisins except with blueberries. It's very good!

Anyone else tried before?

by **Infected Mushroom** » Wed Nov 18, 2020 6:23 pm

Ooooh they have a cranberry flavor too

I may try this as well next time

Are we doing snack recommendations now? Here's mine:

https://yummybazaar.com/products/kirin- ... -oz-500-ml

Kirin's tea in general is really refreshing and perfect for when you don't have time to brew tea yourself. I recommend their straight tea, lemon tea, and milk tea.

Is it sweet?

This is my favorite bottled tea. It’s a sweetened green tea.

Sorry, Shazbotdom. I have to blaspheme. I just love ham and pineapple pizza, and I don't care if I burn in Hell for it.

(I also like pepperoni, and Margherita, if that makes you feel better).
