cursed cuisine
West Virginia
Country roads, take me the hell away from here.
You've not from West Virginia if you never lived in West Virginia
1950s cuisine. Stick some carrots in there for decoration.
- Yeah, and suspend it in some savory gelatin.
  
  While on benzedrine. Happy days.
- And here is the site that started the modern world down that road of horror all the way back in the late 1990s: https://lileks.com/institute/gallery/index.html
  
  oh, you've heard of candle salad?
Country roads take me back home, get me out of West Virginia, please help me god.
My colorblindness makes it look like concrete to me.
- I bet you wouldn’t be able to taste the difference ™️
  
  Much, much saltier than concrete.
That looks a lot like ground and congealed SPAM.
Where's the food crimes comm when you need it?
- In America? Just be thankful there's not Velveeta and ketchup on it.
  
  Just be thankful there’s not Velveeta and ketchup on it.
  all set up in meat jello.
  hurk
This is fine, but I prefer it when you take the pie, put it into a food processor, compress it into a log and then slice it to serve on sandwich bread. Serving it just sliced out of the pie is lazy.
TIL James Taylor has a song called "Country Road."
It is not about West Virginia.
Processing ultra processed meat even further? Even for poverty food this is too much.
So that’s the ham pie Amanda was talking about
Silly Putty Pie. Yumm
I see lots of references to John Denver, Country Roads, but I present:
"Bye, bye Miss Bologna Pie"
- Doc saw my arteries, said I would die...
  
  May I suggest:
  Doc took one look at my arteries and started to cry
  Them surgery boys pumped propofol now I’m high
  Singin’ this’ll be the day that I die…
Why not use liverwurst at that point? I guess it's guaranteed gout.
That does not look like a real recipe.
This, however, is a real recipe: https://www.food.com/recipe/mile-high-bologna-pie-387434
It also starts out with, "if you like bologna, then this is the pie for you." Does anyone like bologna? Isn't it more of an "eh... it'll do" food?
And then there's this. https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/appetizer/meat-appetizer/bologna-cake.html
It has Worcestercire sauce in it, so you know it's gotta be some good bologna cake.
- A couple of family members like fried bologna sandwiches, but I'm pretty sure it's ~~because of past trauma~~ nostalgia more than flavor.
  
  Yeah, this feels a lot more like "okay, well I can't afford to make my kids good, nutritious food, but bologna is super cheap, so maybe I can make it taste acceptable" sort of dish that certain unfortunate people grew up with.
- I really like bologna. I'll eat it by itself fresh outta the fridge as a snack sometimes.
No but I know when it's time to keep my shoes on and go home
The finger imprints in bottom left make this visual much more striking.
I’m from wv I don’t know what holler this monster was created in but it can stay there before it spreads.
I thought it was the mcdonald's pink goo
@ptz@dubvee.org can you confirm?
- This is not a thing.
  We like pepperoni rolls and sausage biscuits.
  Not. This.
Thats a load of baloney!
I wish to die now
I didn't want to
You can still buy that stuff in cans
It's not even cooked after?
- It's a sandwich meat, you don't need to cook it.
- Do you usually cook your deli meats?
  
  I toast my sandwiches. So yes, in a manner of speaking yes.
No.
I don't want any. :(
Is this that "meat pie" I keep hearing about?
Why
Looks like tiktok engagement bait. That will never work here! Oh...
is that a meat mousse
Joey Tribbiani approved.
