Same here. Everyone's dissecting the particulars of American food and the cooking process and I'm just sitting here going "I'm a broke-ass college student. My kitchen consists of a mini-fridge and a microwave. There is nothing I can add to this discussion."McElroy said:They dub American movies in Central Europe... French John Travolta, German Kurt Russell and so on. We always get subs.
Funny how I kinda like how this thread has been even though I'm almost an antithesis to food snobism as I don't really waste time cooking.
...Well, I buy fresh apples from the grocery store, and I'm pretty partial to slicing them up and sticking them in grilled cheese with some cheddar or gouda or something. But methinks that doesn't even approach traditional "American" cooking, even though it's pretty much the only home-cooking I'm capable of.
For the record, as an American, I heartily agree. Hershey chocolate really is ass. I haven't had much Mexican chocolate, but I adored what little I did find.Lightspeaker said:Anyway, since we seem to be throwing food criticisms back and forth across the pond: I personally was absolutely horrified when I tried a milk chocolate Hershey bar for the first (and only) time. I couldn't believe it was actually supposed to be edible. It was probably the most revolting thing I've had in my entire life.
