The culinary atrocity thread
polycounter lvl 19
Sure sure, fancy recipes are all well and good but this thread is for all the garbage we shovel into our bodies whilst working long strange hours with no time to cook.
Pictures speak louder than words:
Some leftover soy-meat, it was so bland I had to mix it with ketchup and cheese to keep it down. Coors Light, for when regular Coors is just too flavorful and strong for my sensitive palette.
Hot dogs, cheese, ketchup and mustard (not that fancy spicy stuff either, pure yellow baby!). Combine with some concentrated grapefruit juice and some classy reading, you got yerself a night!

Good grief! There's *always* time to cook if the alternative is what you concocted in picture number one. While I respect that you industry types work hours that prevent you from developing the Adonis-like physique that I have (me = teh hawt, of course), that "sandwich" looks less like food and more like a form of digestive torture due to be banned with the next Geneva Convention. At least four times as much beer is needed to make that palatable, and by palatable I mean too buzzed to possess a sense of taste.
Soy beef and ketchup, God save us.
I grossed my roomate out last year with my odd leftover combinations. I called it 'Franken-meal'. I didn't have corn starch to thicken the unholy stew, so I used potato flakes and corn flakes. Thank goodness for Tobasco sauce. I'll just leave it at that.
Heck, the soy thing was still healthier than the alternative of going out for fast-food
After consumption of this noxious substance, I spent about half an hour eating toothpaste and drinking fruit concentrate (undiluted) in an attempt to get rid of the taste.

Try soy bacon. I dare you.

Didn't Bill Engval joke about that stuff on the blue collar comedy tour?
Never been a fan of soy myself; soy milk always tasted like oily water, and those soy (insert meat to be replaced) substitutes always grossed me out.
Lupus: picture isn't showing up, what are you talking about? I'll give anything a try, I'm hoping to give Balut a try after my Philipino friend told me about it (hard boiled egg that's been fertilized so there's a creepy embryo in it). I also want to try Lutefisk because it sounds so crazy. I probably wouldn't eat a live octopus though, that's just mean
Incase it doesn't, this testicle of Satan is known as 'vegetarian haggis'.
By "light" do they mean lower alcohol content? (like over here) or is it something about the flavour?
You want a culinary atrocity?

Hey, it says "A New Taste of Scotland" right on it. What do you think Scotland tasted like?
Whats the deal with Americians and their light beer? They always seem to drink it.

As I recall, Samuel Adams made the beer called Utopias that has the worlds highest alcohol by volume.
" Our 2003 batch topped out at a record breaking 25.6% ABV"
Yum.
In America, few people really seem picky about the flavor of their beer (IMO). I'd say Americans are far bigger snobs about coffee than anything else we drink.
but beer, i drink beer for pleasure, i like it strong and tasty (like my wiimen) mmmmmm black sheep
The point of Light Beer is two-fold. Firstly it is watery and light on calories so you can drink them about twice as fast as normal beer. So, if it is your goal to get drunk on beer, as it often is for Americans, light beer is your best bet. The second benefit of light beer is that it is very cheap. Typically, cheaper than bottled water or soda. So, if you are poor and looking to get drunk on beer -> light beer is the ticket.
That's, like, $10 of beer. It's probably only beer in the sense that it's brewed somehow. Anyway, that's the point of Light Beer. I rarely drink it any more.
that's possibly the most disgusting thing i've ever seen.

To me it looks incredibly appetizing. No joke.
*I'm referring to the trashcan'o'beast, NOT the hamdog.
Directions:
Take all the hotdogs you have, but have no buns for, and cut them into bite sized pieces.
Put in a bowl and cheese on top. Microwave until cheese is melted.
Serve with chilled ketchup.
Bonus: this meal is also low in carbs!
Mind you, I have not personally witnessed one. A co-worker has though, and said the restaurant had couches in the lobby, he laid down on one to recuperate.

I'm not suprised. It looks like the last person that ate it didn't enjoy it.

I have to say, 'vegetarian haggis' translates to me as those very same words

This is absolutely my most favourite beer in the world. Nice, strong (but not too strong!) taste, and what little after-taste it has is delicious!
Yum!
