I grew up in a household that kept with a healthy Mediterranean diet, no sugar, drinking whatever milk my mom decided was healthiest at the time, salads and kale chips, where cutting the bottom of a broccoli stock would be considered a cookie-
And then I moved to the Midwest. My god the orgasmic feeling of digging into chicken wings for the first time or a corn pudding. I had no clue that everyone here puts marshmallows on sweet potatoes or in a sandwich with peanut butter, like what?
And pizza- PIZZA. Look, I've had plenty of pizza before, vegan, peach slices on arugula with a light sauce. But Chicago deep dish? Pizza or not it's a monument to man's gluttony. Double dough? My god that thicc slice is choice.
The chef's here are essentially participating in assisted suicide, and it's the best thing ever. When I go out now, I'm going to Dr. Kavorkian's 24 hour diner, extra gravy please.

Nope, he's Columbus's favorite son. So much so that the left wing has been meming about renaming the city Flavortown for years

Ahh, that's right. It's been so long since I've seen him in anything. XD

Anybody can cook like Paula Dean. All you need is lots of butter, cheese, and racism.

Packet of ranch mix. Then you put a packet of ranch on top of that. Now into the crockpot for a week.

Where does creme cheese come in blocks?
cujo255@sh.itjust.works · 9 pts · 213d
..everywhere? In the us at least it does
Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works · 1 pts · 213d
Here in the Netherlands I've never seen it not come in a tub.
captainlezbian@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 212d
It also comes in tubs here, but the traditional way here is a block in a foil like wrap that can be resealed by it being a sticky product
stormeuh@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 213d
Doesn't Mon Chou traditionally come as a block?
Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 212d
Oh yeah, you're right!
Tehhund@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 213d

Costco has some cream cheese in tubs, from what I recall.

I picture a lady named Marge wearing Mom jeans and a sweater vest with an accent like the characters in Fargo.
