general

it's one of those side dishes that everyone likes

but its a waste because it doesn't go with anything else

it's also *that* dish, that you always bring if you're going to a friends house for dinner

Do you like Thanksgiving sides Gent?

I'm guessing Green bean casserole maybe, that's the least starch-y side dish

oh god what the fuck is this cream corn stuff

is that corn in milk?

what the fuck am i looking at

what the hell is kansas doing

no milk, they use corn broth

its mostly just a style of corn

kind of like a less-soupy corn chowder

hmm

actually, Fire

I'm retarded

I was thinking cream didn't count as milk

lmao

i guess it kinda does?

it still is mostly corn broth

but there's definately thick cream and fat added

i see, well it lowkey looks like cat vomit

normally for thanksgiving, you make it into a casserole

which will kind of be like warm, goopy cornbread

oh yeah that looks more acceptable

so question about mac and cheese

is it always macaroni with cheddar poured on top or does it also count carbonara?

almost always the former

White American is "fancier" than cheddar

but it's never has a carbonara consitancy

fair enough

though a couple years ago, I saw something for the first time with Mac & Cheese

some retard substituted the ritz crackers on top, for cheese-its

any family that does this should be shot

i've seen a lot of memes about how people make the worst mac and cheese and that's basically become my idea of what mac and cheese is

just this horrible monster that america creates for no reason

my dad make the shittiest mac and cheese on the planet

because he can't make a cheese roux for some reason

and always boils the milk

lmao

what's your weird dutch home-cooked meal

for these types of family dinners

good fucking question

i can't think of anything that's like a go-to

actually

we do like a gourmet thing

so it's not one thing but rather we put a fuck ton of ingredients on the table and cook and eat it on the spot

kinda like that thing asians do in anime i guess

There's a dutch market near where I live, you should critique their menu

it's an Amish-Dutch market

so it's pretty simple stuff

yeah, tbh there's not even any dutch stuff on this menu

yeah this is just americanized nonsense

even the pancakes aren't dutch

yeah, this is just an amish guy trying to make it sound exotic

traditional dutch food isn't really all that great tbh

We've got a Belgian place

that's more authentic

I always liked stuffing/dressing the most

I made it with a sort of fake bread last year

yeah i'd say that's pretty accurate actually

oh man Fire, I want to go just to try pronouncing this stuff

impossible

belgians have this really soft g that is even more impossible for english people to pronounce than the dutch g

there are a lot of neat restaurants in DC, because of how many diplomats and shit live there

so there are tons of crazy foreign cafes and stuff

that's fair

it's never fun when you show up somewhere, and the menu is in cyrillic though

or in Korean

both of which i can read, funnily enough Kappa

I like that the Dutch do weeb soup though

sounds comfy

all of our weeb soup places around here SUCK

Max has a good one near her, but around DC it's all trendy nonsense

anyway yeah this is basically what we do on christmas, at least in my family

yeah, I'm willing to call that weeb soup
