"Bad" Food Thread: Episode III - Revenge of the Melt

Mego Thor

War! The Grilled Cheese Republic is crumbling under attacks by the ruthless Melt Lord, Count Dorblu. There are heroes on both sides. Edam is everywhere.

In a stunning move, the fiendish droid leader, General Gruyere, has swept into the Republic capital and kidnapped Chancellor Pasteurized, leader of the Galactic Senate.

As the Separatist Droid Army attempts to flee the besieged capital with their valuable hostage, two Jindi Knights lead a desperate mission to rescue the captive Chancellor....

Karl

I feel we can all agree that cheese is the best in its variety of forms

Tox

That or potato.

I mean, think about it

Think about all the different ways to serve cheese

Think about all the different ways to serve potatoes.

Now think of all the different ways to serve potatoes and cheese.

Mego Thor

Cheesy tater tots are the best way to serve potatoes and cheese.

Decius

Add some gravy, and baby you got a poutine going.

DouglasDanger

Tater tot casserole

Sorce

I had both cheese and potatoes in my breakfast this morning.

(The rest was a bagel, egg, and a couple of chicken strips.)

Madican

Blessed are the cheesemakers.

Karl

I've started cutting out the bad food and this is what I imagine going off heroin feels like.

But I don't want a potentially fatal heart attack in my 40's. These are my trials.

The guy next to me at the hotel bar the other night got this tater tot nacho pile thing and it looked incredible and I probably gained about 2lbs just watching him eat it.

I ordered a killer burg with an egg, a fried green tomato, and pimento cheese and oh my god it was so heavy but so good.

Sterica

May the burg be with you. Always.

(because it's hardening in your arteries)

Moe's Southwest Grill has a BOGO for burritos going...

Getting burritos tonight.

Burger King has jalapeño chicken fries now. They're nice, they taste a lot like jalapeño, but they aren't very spicy.

There's going to eventually be enough flavors of chicken fry that @The Betgirl and @Whippy won't need to eat anything else.

The Betgirl

I had chicken fries yesterday and I'm not sure if they were Jalapeno or not? They were in the Jalapeno box but I'm not sure if that was advertising or not.

We had too busy a weekend to make lunches for the week and I ran out of leftovers yesterday so I've gotta go buy lunch today.

I'm thinking a sandwich and pasta salad from a nearby deli. They make killer pasta salad.

Try this. You'll feel better.

People who mix cheese or cheese-like products into poor, innocent mashed potatoes and trick me into scooping a bunch onto my plate are CRIMINALS

but cheesy potatoes or cheesy grits are heaven.

Moriveth

Also have you ever had aligot

it's fucking heavenly

BahamutZERO

You can have your cheesy potatos, just don't pass them off as plain mashed potatoes and make me gag when I take a bite and then surreptitiously slide the rest of it into the fucking trash can

My condolences regarding the tragic loss of your taste buds.

ChicoBlue

I got a big bag of cheap dollar store corn twists that are just styrofoamy salt things that are amazing and horrible and it's a good thing I also got a big box of Sweet Tarts to balance them out wooobrother

#pipe

My wife adores popcorn twists and whenever she eats them one of our cats goes utterly mental. They are like the reason for his existence at this stage.

Sterica

Like cheesy potatoes are just a mashed formed of cheese fries.

C'mon

Karl

Cheesy mash is nice but I would choose original plain mash over it

see317

Loaded mashed potatoes are the way and the light.
Stuff them so full of bacon, cheese, sour cream and butter that you can only call them "potatoes" on a technicality, then inject that stuff into my veins (by way of mouth, please).

BlankZoe

The best mashed potatoes are garlic butter mash with the skins still mixed in there

#pipe

I like mash sour cream and chives.

Filling the Guy Fieri quota in the bad food thread early.

Got any details on what goes into/on top of this?
Cause it looks like it's topped off with a raw egg, and that just seems unappealing, even in the bad food thread.

Duke 2.0

Googling the world is likely your best source

my relatives are more for seafood and just go out to get this stuff

Tallahasseeriel

That is entirely too much cheese.

Maximum

I never thought I'd say this...but that thing might be too oily.

Counterpoint: nu uh.

Joking aside, I'd try it. Looks pretty tasty.

BahamutZERO

That thing looks downright american

Duke 2.0

That's not grease, think of it like a wine-based Mmarinara that the fries on the side are soaking in

it's clearly a fork and knife dish

Daimar

why in the hell would they put a sprig of parsley and cherry tomatoes on the top of it? Is that some sort of apology or is the cook just stuck in the 80s?

According to Wikipedia it's most commonly a beer based sauce. I'd 100% try that at least once.
