Council charcuterie - best cuisine in the world
Can confirm, my autistic brain wants this Platter badly
Why is it that autistic people prefer bland processed food sometimes? I’m pretty sure my brother, who is not diagnosed, is autistic and he went like eight years only eating microwaved pizzas and microwaved pizza-adjacent products.
Poverty charqutery.
as if i wouldn’t continue eating this no matter how rich i was, only difference is that they’d be more ethically sourced and where possible vegan.
My brain had a really hard time with the scale of the items on the plate. Where does one get a pizza the diameter of two dino nuggets, topped with tiny pepperoni?
Maybe, hear me out, the pizza is normal size, but everything else is just huge.
Sure, but the rest are convenience foods. There’s nothing convenient about making a tiny pizza from scratch, and I’ve never seen anything like it in the frozen foods section.
I live in the states, they’re pretty common. They usually come in a little foil lined box with microwave instructions 😕
If this is British - and it does look like British tapas - then that could well be a Chicago Town frozen mini pizza. They’re…not great, but they are convenient.
It is British, this is:
- Chicago Town Microwave Pepperoni Pizza.
- Bernard Matthews Turkey dinosaurs
- Potato smiles
- Chicken dippers
- Chicken fingers (all four above by McCains)
- Cajun Curly fries
- Heinz Spaghetti Hoops
- Birds Eye Potato Waffles
It’s a lovely bit of beige, and nice for a treat, but I’d rather have something a bit…less processed?
Good work!
Man, I want those tiny pizzas. I’d cook up a stack of ‘em, separate with wax paper, and keep ‘em as a snack on the go.
Fuckin pocket pizzas you kiddin me?
Is it a sign that you’re not young when you see that and go ugh. How bout some veggies and stuff.
Maybe you haven’t aged enough. There’s an awkward period in your 30’s ~ 40’s where your brain is confused and forgets what delicious looks like. Don’t worry: you get it back in your 50’s.
You’re eating this shit in your 50s? I mean I love fried foods but if I’m gonna eat them I’m gonna get good stuff.
Oh, yeah. Ima take up smoking again when I turn 60. Statistically, something else will kill me long before I develop cancer if I start at that age.
I’m not opposed to better quality fried food, but there’s something comforting about being able to dig into the freezer and pull out something to shove in the oven, without having to make a trip out, wait for for, and/or eat in public.
one part of my brain sees this and drools, another part of my brain knows how miserable it will be to poo after a day of eating only carbs and protein.
And this is why i feel you could make a tidy profit from selling chicken nuggets with ground up vegetables in them, like vitamin gummies except with food instead of candy. Meatballs are already basically this since they generally contain onion (at least in sweden).
Veggie “chicken” nuggets are already delicious! They’re just expensive. I’d rather have morningstar nuggets than anything in this picture on taste alone, and I’m not vegetarian.
