They’re doing it for the gains.
Europe: “terrorized and colonized the world to get spices” Also Europe: “serves up absolute disgusting food like this”
What the fuck was it all for?!?!
UK isn’t Europe it’s just some shitty island
Shitty islands
And yet somehow food is the only place their culture falls behind.
I know what I said.
British Empire: Steals all the worlds spices
Also British Empire: Refuses to use any of them
The people who got rich pillaging the world weren’t the ones who ate like this.
Different parts of Europe
No, exactly the same parts of Europe. Both the Dutch and the English were know for their spice trade and are known for their awful food. The rest of Europe has better food and terrorized and colonized for other reasons.
That doesn’t contradict what I said. Neither of those are a monolith.
The people doing the colonizing and using the spices and the people eating the bland food were from different parts of their countries.
Enlighten me which part of the Netherlands doesn’t eat bland food ;)
Isn’t alfredo just greasy milk
Actual Alfredo has no dairy added other than cheese
I know, my fiancée makes it at home! I’m just a tomato kinda guy. Your comment and name made me think of greasy milk. I found it really inocuous and just a bit jarring, in a funny way.
Anyways, I retorted like that because I just ate this like a week ago. Ernest Hemingway wrote about it in For Whom the Bells Toll, in 6th grade it entranced me. It’s pretty baller. Bread, cheese and onion.
They understand mexicans and biting into raw onions. If I had a pot of my mother’s beans, I’d be in heaven. Every now and again celebrate where you come from or enjoy simple discomforts. It’s why Islam venerates pilgramages and fasting. Christians, lent. Etc.
Thanks for letting me rant, I’m gonna go buy some beans.
Edit. Am boiling beans
Doesn’t it have cream?
And butter.
Even if you did though you could spice this up cut up the onions fry them up a little bit melt that cheese and that bread on a pan. boom! you got a nice grilled cheese with some grilled onions
Raw onion is better than fried onion(I may be alone in this though). I do agree with melting the cheese, or just add more too it. This is a travesty.
Raw onion is tasty but my tummy doesn’t like it as much as I do, so I’ll usually go for fried
get some garlic in there too, in for a good time.
Throw on a little sliced ribeye to garnish, just for the hell of it.
ITs A MeLt [insert spongebob chicken meme here]
that looks amazing, imma make one tonight
But with red onion.
omfg I forgot that I was gonna do this and I didn’t go the the heb
also, red onion is good, yellow onion is good, white onion is good, all different but all good.
Came here to say this!
i’m a liar and I didn’t make the sammich. I forgot this was the plan and I got rum instead.
Understandable. Can’t argue either way. I’m over 50, both choices might kill me and I completely approve.
Well as long as we’re yucking other people’s yum…
People will mock this and then eat some peanut butter 🤢
Don’t try to normalize this abomination. The preparation is as bad as the ingredients.
If this was prepared properly and with a more sane amount of onion this would be totally fine to me. I like me some raw onions sprinkled over food, adds a little zest. Definitely not a centimeter thick slice tho.
Alright. You got me.
What uhh… Whatcha got against peanut butter?
No one was putting that much cheese on a ploughman’s during the war.
My ancestors trail recipes are more varied than this, and half of them are just normal foods with chili poured over it. Why are you like this England actual cavemen had more varried foods, at least chop up the onion a bit more and grill the whole thing.
This picture disgusts me so much that I desperately wish I could never see it again.
I dunno… that looks like a nice simple sandwich.
A bowel contraction sandwich. Thick cut. Kills men over 50. I salute you.
People really think Blitz-era Brits were so decadent? Look at how much cheese is on there! That’s enough to give an elephant nightmares. And that’s like half an onion!
Besides, London rats are a meal all in themselves. No need for fancy cheese and onion cobs when you can go to the bins behind your local and get a wriggling, squeaking meal washed down with some fresh bin juice for free.
Onion a little thick but fine I’ll give you that but the cheese??? Good Lord man!
Cheese isn’t even good when it gets that thick. It takes on an unpleasant texture. And in a sandwich like that it would be ruinous to the bread. You would at least have to slice it thinner and layer it.
Imagining what the texture of that would feel like while eating it upsets me.
Not sure about the onion (prefer them pickled myself), but the rest looks fine. It’s a big-ass chunk of (hopefully extra mature) cheddar and some bread and butter. Nowt wrong wi’ that.
To be fair Americans are incapable of eating any food which aren’t the texture of blended babyfood, so them being upset at a little texture in food isn’t really that surprising.
Tell that to the T-bone and bleu cheese salad I just polished off.
Jesus Christ, shots fired over here
That’s what I was thinking. Fresh onion is a little to crisp. I’d go with pickled onion or maybe a thin layer of diced shallots.
If it’s a nice bread and cheese, it’s fucking amazing with a cup of tea.
Cheese and onion. They go well together.
What kind of herba mystica was used?
