British charcuterie
so... beige...
Are those waffles?
Not enough dark chocolate for me.
Ware your dark chocolate sources, my dear. Apparently Lindt has a ton of metals in it, which is tragic because they're my favorite chocolate.
Baker's chocolate, any brand.
fresh from the fridge, so you can shave it with your teeth and enjoy the shavings melting and for a moment feeling like chocolate pudding
Spaghetti-Os are disgusting.
I... I love them. I don't know what it is but the more processed the food the more I want it. And these things taste like they've been assembled from compounds never actually found in nature.
Did you grow up eating them? My wife did, and she loves this trash, too.
Yep. That whole plate looks like my childhood.

I had them again for the first time in probably 15 years and man that shit is nasty. Overly sweetened mildly acidic sludge in a can. The "meat" might be the worst part.
I tried them last year and I have to say they brought back childhood. So many memories!
But when I tried again, they didn’t have the original style without meat. That stuff was vile even when I was a kid. You know it’s bad when chopping up cheap hot dogs to put in it are far above the “hot dogs” style

That all looks pretty fucking delish, ngl...
Plug your arteries in five easy steps.
Is it a sign that you're not young when you see that and go ugh. How bout some veggies and stuff.
I’m being all smug over hear just finishing one of my most healthy meals ever. I made tuna steak, roast potatoes, and spinach salad. Lots of bright colors!
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).

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.

Speak for yourself, this platter just gave me a second wind!:))
It's giving me wind, all right ...
That's half the fun!;)
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?
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?
It is British, and it is a complete list of things my 7-year-old British son eats.

You do know that pizza can be made in any size right?
Same with sausages
The confusing thing about this pizza (to me at least) is the crust. The smaller you make the crust, the harder it is to make it consistently shaped. Being a small pizza, the crust must also be very small, and this is an incredibly consistent crust thickness.
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 😕
I’ve seen Celeste pizzas, but this one appears to be half that size.
Publix sells pizza-ready doughs, rip some off, flatten, put some jar sauce, pre-shredded cheese, and sprinkly with tiny pepperoni, bake that's like 2 minutes of work.
Maybe, hear me out, the pizza is normal size, but everything else is just huge.
I legitimately went through a brief phase of entertaining that concept before deciding to use the Spaghetti-O’s as the scale anchor. It’s still entirely possible at this point.
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.
