You wouldn't be assuming that everyone on Lemmy is American, would you? Because I lost my shit over that too.

- Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
I'm Dutch myself so nope, not assuming so XD
Nevertheless, as a European, it is my continental duty to shit on Americans, which is (partially) why I made the meme :P
Food is Anarchy dude, Live by Your Own Rules!
That's hydrochloric acid, though. Big no-no for ingestion according to my uncle who's a doctor and my step brother who teaches chemistry.
Let me guess, you're with the DEA?
You're thinking of Dihydrogen Monoxide, 100% of people who ingest it die.
And it's in literally every commercially available beverage! Wake up, sheeple!
I will go on record as saying I don't give a shit if there's pineapple on my pizza. I wouldn't order it that way, but I'll enjoy a pineapple, jalapeño, ham pizza if a slice is put in front of me.
Raisins in Mac and cheese... I can imagine it's probably tasty enough, but the rubbery consistency of raisins in tandem with sticky pasta is what I find revolting
I love raisins and even I think this would taste like shit.
I do love me some Hawaiian tho and raisins are bomb in a biryani... Fight me 🤣
Bacon is a tastier option than the ham... It's actually my favorite combo of pizza toppings in fact.
Today I learned that this thread is real and not a meme. I honestly thought people were joking about raisins in Mac n cheese.
There are plenty of americans who feel that pineapple on pizza is a crime.
pineapple on pizza is amazing
I don't get it.
Is raisins in Mac n cheese like, a big thing in other countries and us Americans just don't get it? If so I guess more power to you, that is news to me. I'd try anything once but I don't really like raisins to begin with so it's a bit of a tough sell.
And yes, pineapple on pizza is delicious. I've seen some truly abhorrent pizza toppings from elsewhere in the world, so I don't think we have some kind of monopoly on those crimes.
Raisins? Pff. Never heard of that. Frozen green peas though? That's where it's at for the boxed Mac and cheese.
I hate raisins either way but I love love love sauteed onions with my mac n cheese.
I'm going to take one for the team and make this.
I also love pineapple on pizza.
The problem with Pineapple on pizza is that everyone thinks ham goes with it. That's ok, but pepperoni and pineapple is so much better, and nobody ever gets to try it because of "Hawaiian" pizza.
I think what also turns people off of pineapple on pizza is some places do these huge chunks of pineapple. Smaller chunks are better as they actually cook down a little and are delicious.
I am also part of the pineapple and pepperoni game. I would also recommend trying pineapple and Italian sausage if you like Italian sausage.
I always like people gatekeeping pizzas that use toppings other than the traditional Italian ones.
... ignoring the fact that tomato sauce is from the Americas.
You do WHAT with Mac n cheese? Nah, forget pine apple pizza, your my new enemy.
Canadians breathing a sigh of relief when everyone blames America for pineapple on pizza instead of them.
raisins wtf
I just want to confirm, that raisins do not belong anywhere! I rather have pineapples in my cheesecake.
Why does everyone seam to hate raisins (and olives)
They are fucking delicious
I love oatmeal raisin cookies and I'm tired of pretending I don't.
Raisins are delicious and most cookies would be improved with oatmeal.
Straight to hell all the way to the bottom of hell with you with nothing to eat until the end of time except mac n raisins.
There's a big difference.
One you're putting berries on cheese with carbs
The other you're putting berries in cheese with carbs
See the issue?
When you fucking what now?
I'm italian from a family so italian we're all walking stereotypes, and pinapple+black olive is my favorate pizza combination.
You always know when someone says something like "we're so Italian we..." that they're definitely not from Italy
Not american but why would you put raisins in mac n cheese?
I'm European and raisins in mac 'n cheese??? 🤮
Pineapple on pizza is such a forced debate, nobody normal sincerely cares that much, and anyone who does is either pretending or has a toddler-level approach to food. The "authentic Italian" gatekeeping is also incredibly stupid and ironic, given Italy's history of appropriating other culture's foods then claiming they are the arbiters of the most "authentic" version of said food.
My fav dolce pizzas to make are cinnamon date puree with pecans and brown sugar sprinkled over top, or a sliced pear/apple with brie and a Balsamic drizzle.
Any contrarian food opinions are forced debate, and just plain stupid. Arguing that "pineapple doesn't belong on pizza" is the logical equivalent to arguing "no one's favorite color should be red".
I have been up and down a few posts concerning this and have yet to find (maybe i missed a couple) anyone who has tried this and reported back.
I am beginning to think that this was just some housewives joke on the internet.
"You know what, this should really rattle some budgies if i just say i add a few raisins. oooo I am such a devil" and little did she know just how well it worked.
On a basis of raisins and cheese whiz being good, I think it might have a little bit of charm.
I'm allergic to pineapple. I put habenero hot sauce on my mac. There's zero chance I'm adding raisins.
Both sound just awful
When Americans make Mac and cheese does it usually only contain macaroni and cheese? Or do they add other things?
Here in Belgium we call it macaroni with ham and cheese because we put pieces of ham in it.
Yea we put ham too, sometimes spam, sometimes bacon. It's really versatile tbh. We even have other variations like Cheeseburger Macaroni that nearly crosses the line into its own dish.
But, I have never EVER heard of raisins going into it before and it sounds disgusting.
