worst sounding sushi roll at guy fieri's southern bbq & california style sushi restaurant tex wasabi's

Jeff Smith just said: "Remember not long ago when we called all pasta 'macaroni'?"

iirc even garlic was considered somewhat exotic in the pre-70s Midwest.

until about 10 years ago mum had a jar of MSG in her spice rack (it had an expiry date of 1985 so I don't think she'd used it for a looooooong time, lol)

it's still good

no kidding

only celeb chef i've worked \\around// is c0licchi0
but basically the lead chef at every restaurant is always a hair away from just demolishing the whole line emotionally, verbally and sometimes physically

huh seems like one of the nicer ones on chopped

he's okay. I was working at cr@ft a good many years before top chef started. I overheard a meeting or three about his GLOBAL BRAND at the time and did a lot of eye rolling. now he's on treme and i'm eating dried seaweed for dinner
HE'S A MONSTER is what i'm saying

later. much later.

i never saw a fresh herb or actual garlic bulbs growing up

I did, but I had parents who a) grew their own vegetables, and b) cooked soul food occasionally, particularly collards

why would you ever want those

oh we had garlic salt too, I mean what else were you going to put on your chicken after the minced garlic and the garlic powder?

btw have I mentioned that I overseason like a fiend?

my mom once made a "mexican pizza" that was basically four pounds of ground beef, old el paso seasoning, and six pounds of cheese on a pizza crust. i feel like guy would somehow understand.

I invented a chicken rice recipe when I was in high school that was:

1 cup rice
1 can Campbell's Chicken Noodle Soup
1 cup water

it was fucking good, too

i feel like every food concoction i've come up with while drunk or ragingly hungover could go on guy's menu with a slightly spiffier presentation

Yeah the bar I worked at had mexican pizza like that, also toss a bunch of lettuce, black olives, and tomatoes on it and serve w salsa

doritos tempura

i wonder if the food scientists behind doritos taco bell revere or despise what fieri does.

never ate garlic growing up. dad would come home for dinner and then go back to work (funeral director) and didn't want "garlic breath" while he was greeting people.

lol everything

I think my parents only ever fed me garlic growing up

you must've been pretty hungry most of the time

I'm only slightly exaggerating when I say my mom just made variations on hamburger helper or shake and bake chicken.

We had that too! I'm feeling nostalgic for it now.

Clearly time to revive this thread

One of Mr Veg's favorite things that his mom makes is an enchilada thing that has ground beef, black olives AND chopped hardboiled eggs in it.
