It really is

Colour_me_triggered,

Imsorrywhatnow?!

miversen33,

When you fucking what now?

theragu40,

I don’t get it.

Is raisins in Mac n cheese like, a big thing in other countries and us Americans just don’t get it? If so I guess more power to you, that is news to me. I’d try anything once but I don’t really like raisins to begin with so it’s a bit of a tough sell.

And yes, pineapple on pizza is delicious. I’ve seen some truly abhorrent pizza toppings from elsewhere in the world, so I don’t think we have some kind of monopoly on those crimes.

Macncheese isn’t a big thing in other countries. Now cheesy potatoes with raisins!

RememberTheApollo_,

What?

stolid_agnostic,

I get the joke now, thanks.

ILikeBoobies,

Mac and Cheese is a Canadian thing

I wouldn’t want to consider the Kraft boxes to be Mac and Cheese but it’s the only thing with statistics

Canadians out-eat Americans when it comes to these blue-and-yellow boxes by 55%. That means Canadians buy 1.7 million boxes of the 7 million boxes of Kraft Mac & Cheese that are sold each week

Peaty,

It’s also why Kraft/Mondalez makes the weird flavors for you guys like Pumpkin Spice or Cotton Candy.

Calm down, 'Muricans. We didn’t lose our shit when you replaced the Spatzen in Kässpatzen with Macaroni and the cheese in Kässpatzen with fatty, gloopy cheddar “sauce”. You can bear this one.

@HotDogFingies@kbin.social avatar

We're dumb and very deserving of ridicule, but let me correct you anyway.

Macaroni and Cheese was introduced to the US by James Hemings, a man enslaved by Thomas Jefferson (our 3rd president), after returning from Italy, where he learned how to do pasta stuff because Tommy just loved noods.

So, yeah. Slavery.

Starshader,

Don’t be so mean, they do not have access to quality food.

Interesting. Mac and cheese, it seems, evolved from the pasta and cheese casserole dishes of Italy and England popular around the 14th and 15th century. While kasspatzen seems to have originated from around the areas of southern Germany with no mention of it as a dish until about the 1700’s.

Curious that.

norgur,
@norgur@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

First of all: Don’t you think Kässpatzen “evolved from” something, too? Like… both are “cooked dough stuff with cheese”

And secondly: your argument is not the counter you might think it is. The core of my argument was that Mac and Cheese are a downgrade to the food it came from. It doesn’t matter, if the origins are in Italy or Germany, the argument stands. Slopping fat with cheese flavor on pasta is nothing one could claim any culinary high ground with

And lastly: we all agree that this is some light hearted, friendly banter here, and not some patriotic conflict about cultural superiority, right?

mriormro,
@mriormro@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah sure, I don’t care. But the Italians in the other room might lose their shit if they find out the Germans ruined their casserole with unholy German egg noodles.

PsychedSy,

Dried egg noodles are the true crime.

HotDogFingies,
@HotDogFingies@kbin.social avatar

I love dried egg noodles. Please, sir, can I have some more?

PsychedSy,

Dude raemes egg noods are the best.

That’s hydrochloric acid, though. Big no-no for ingestion according to my uncle who’s a doctor and my step brother who teaches chemistry.

Melody,

…What? In what place was HCl^-^ ever mentioned?

Your reply is nonsensical.

VikingHippie,

I was referring to the liquid that the girl in the picture is pouring…

TurtleFantasy,

You’re thinking of Dihydrogen Monoxide, 100% of people who ingest it die.

VikingHippie,

And it’s in literally every commercially available beverage! Wake up, sheeple! https://lemmy.wtf/pictrs/image/32946478-c7e0-4128-9170-2bacccc4a959.png

It's only a matter of time :(

sounddrill,

Let me guess, you’re with the DEA?

VikingHippie,

Hell no! Drugs won the war on drugs

sounddrill,

cook meth with your step brother wen

VikingHippie,

Nah, he doesn’t have cancer and we have single payer healthcare here 🤷

sock,

drugs have not won the war on drugs until everything is decriminalized B)

VikingHippie,

Drugs are here to stay and thus have won the war. That they’re not legalised and closely regulated means common sense hasn’t won yet.

sock,

until people can get help without fear of incarceration and healthcare sponsored therapy drugs have not won. people still suffer

also when the illegal drugs just funnel minorities into prison for slave labor the drugs haven’t won

sock,

whatever liberal ill drink whatever i want

VikingHippie,

You go right ahead, no reason to defame me like that 😄

arefx,

Both sound just awful

Gestrid,

Pineapple on pizza is just… no.

Pineapple on pizza is only weird cause we pair it with Canadian Bacon.

Try Pinepple, Bacon, and Jalapeño. I call it PBJ pizza. Gets a real weird look when I only call it that haha

Some guy in the original thread said he’d try the Mac and raises on livestream. Excited to see how it works out

Starshader,

When you will die, you will have to spend at least one week in an Italian hell, where you will be forced to learn how to cook a proper pizza with a Napolitan Nonna.

BluJay320,
@BluJay320@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

Alright, you got me. I’m gonna try it.

ryry1985,

I actually prefer something that will piss off the Italians AND the Germans: pineapple, sauerkraut, and canadian bacon pizza

Someone,

Hey don’t call that thick cut ham crap Canadian or bacon. We eat regular bacon up here. Ham sucks.

scottywh,

Ham is good., It doesn’t belong on pizza though

scottywh,

That has been my go to pizza for like… 30+ years…

It’s so good.

AdmiralShat,

There’s a big difference.

One you’re putting berries on cheese with carbs

The other you’re putting berries in cheese with carbs

See the issue?

Bene7rddso,

Yes. So Sprinkling raisins on top of the mac&cheese is fine

HotDogFingies,
@HotDogFingies@kbin.social avatar

YES.

negativeyoda,

I will go on record as saying I don’t give a shit if there’s pineapple on my pizza. I wouldn’t order it that way, but I’ll enjoy a pineapple, jalapeño, ham pizza if a slice is put in front of me.

Raisins in Mac and cheese… I can imagine it’s probably tasty enough, but the rubbery consistency of raisins in tandem with sticky pasta is what I find revolting

Dkarma,

I love raisins and even I think this would taste like shit.

I do love me some Hawaiian tho and raisins are bomb in a biryani… Fight me 🤣

scottywh,

Bacon is a tastier option than the ham… It’s actually my favorite combo of pizza toppings in fact.

stolid_agnostic,

Today I learned that this thread is real and not a meme. I honestly thought people were joking about raisins in Mac n cheese.

Tak,
@Tak@lemmy.ml avatar

Ugh. Pineapple on pizza was created in Canada.

If you wanna throw shade at us go to deep fried Twinkies or something.

AngryCommieKender,

Deep fried butter. I think we went too far

Spaceinv8er,

And it should’ve stayed in Canada

Tak,
@Tak@lemmy.ml avatar

Woah there. I love pineapple on pizza. Pineapple, jalapenos, and mushrooms is just a great combo.

scottywh,

Add bacon!

michaelrose,

Straight to hell all the way to the bottom of hell with you with nothing to eat until the end of time except mac n raisins.
