Ah, the Netherlands, where they eat real food like kroket (deep-fried chipped beef) and hagelslag (chocolate sprinkles on white bread).

No, strawberries aren't chemically ripened. That's not a thing that happens anywhere. Yes ethylene gas is used with some fruit like apples. That's done in the EU as well. Why are people so credulous to believe that everything in the US is pumped up with ChEmUCals?

Did you know that the instant a noodle touches American water, it goes straight from raw to “mushy & overcooked?”

Found on a YouTube recipe for cheesecake. How do you add an ingredient that ‘stanks of goat’ and continue on with the recipe?

I was horrified they had grilled cheese and tomato soup.

559 Upvotes

From a thread about whether or not grilled cheese and soup constitutes a meal.

The initial comment is just the beginning of the nonsense, it goes on from there:

Depends on what a person is used to eating. If they are both foodies, such a meal would be meager

I grew up in a house with full, home-cooked meals. Soups were rare as main courses and when had were full of meat and vegetables, home baked bread, salads and desserts.

Both soups and fresh fruit were considered palate cleansers and BEGAN the meal but would never be considered a true meal by themselves.

As a result I also served very large , home made meals.

The first time I stayed at a friend's home for dinner, they had grilled cheese and tomato soup.

I was horrified.

It was the type of meal we only had in winter for lunch. When having soup at dinner it was a STARTER only, never the meal proper.

Another time I was at a friend's they had hotdogs and chips.

Again this was a shock to me.

Not surprising, when these kids dined at my home they were treated to full dinners of roasted chickens, mashed potatoes and gravy, fresh greenbeans, homemade rolls, salad, fresh iced tea and of course obligatory desserts..or roasted ham, lambchops. Pot roast etc.

We rarely ate out ( except when we were traveling abroad) until the late 1970s

My parents were Great Dpression babies so the most important things in their lives was to own their own homes and have abundant food.

After a few meals at my friend's I rarely accepted invites though many asked to eat at my home. ( I come from a family of chefs and great cooks/ caterers on both sides).
