Some of you really don’t like raisins, huh?
I love chocolate syrup, but it doesn’t belong on cheese or pasta.
what about chocolate pasta?
Raisins are good and anyome who thinks otherwise is a stupif fucking pile of dogshit, just my opinion though.
FUCK raisins. The nasty little fucks can go decay in a corner alone for all I care.
And I have the same reaction I have to most of these types of things - I wonder what it tastes like, and wish I could try it.
I’ve never understood why these things trigger such uproar. It’s not like it’s poison or some sort of bodily secretion or something - it’s just a somewhat unusual but entirely edible ingredient. And it could be good. So what’s the problem?
elaborate performative outrage is just fun for its own sake sometimes idk
I’ve suspected it’s largely performative. I still don’t really get it though.
Well a lot of people don’t like raisins, so that’s why it’s triggering an uproar?
It’s weird that you are forgetting that not everyone likes every food.
It’s awesome that you like raisins. Don’t need to dismiss those who don’t.
And I don’t like curry, but I’m not a acting like an upset 8yo every day that India exists.
That’s not the same, but okay.
Imagine taking your favourite dish and adding something you hate into it. That’s the equivalent.
It’s so…cloying and happy.
It’s insidious.
Don’t knock it, till you try it.
But I agree…
If it’s delicious I could have my mind changed, I will admit
I am one of those who enjoys oatmeal raisin cookies, so it is entirely plausible; but in Mac and Cheese it seems… dubious
I’ve had a pizza with figs to surprisingly great success. It made me a lot more willing to try sweet things with cheese because it was insanely delicious. I’d be mildly concerned because I don’t really like raisins but I would at least try this once.
I would 100% try this if given the chance, but I don’t like raisins, so I won’t make it myself
Oh yeah same for sure. I’m not spending money on raisins on purpose that’s just reality lol
Cheese and fruit are a pretty well known and loved combination (not just fresh like on a cheese board, but things like chutney too), I don’t see why it wouldn’t work (I wouldn’t eat it because I don’t like raisins, but I don’t object to the idea)
Yeah, totally. I’ve had cheese that was aged in raisins. Fruit and cheese are friends.
I’m very selective about my raisin eating. I don’t tend to like them in desserts, but love them in savory dishes. A lot of cuisines utilize raisins in this manner - North Africa and Mexico immediately come to mind.
I think the issue here is ultimately about texture more than flavor. I don’t want a chewy raisin in a rich, melty sauce. They’re good in kugel, which are also made of noodles, but the texture is very different. They’re springy, tender, and solid. Much more welcoming of raisins.
Beyond that, I don’t really want any major modifications to my mac and cheese. It’s comfort food and part of that comfort is how familiar it is. I don’t really want anything in there. Even something like bacon or tomatoes, both of which would probably taste really good. Mac and cheese is just one of those things that I want to enjoy simply. Additional ingredients would only detract from the experience.
Could be worse
She could add corn to it
I tried that once just because I had both, and they were both yellow. I can’t believe how nasty it was. It was one of very few of my creations that I had thrown out. I think the smushy and popping textures together wrecked my brain.
Now I really want to try that
You’re just describing Midwest hot dish…
What in the caucasity.
Just put 1 raisin in there to mess up someone’s day.
Whoever gets it has to make the next Mac and cheese.
She’s a witch! Burn her!
We live on a spinning spaceship made out of rock with 8 billion people on it and THIS is what people talk about?
You’re kicked out of the potluck for life if you bring this over.
You all thought I was crazy for wanting pineapple on pizza! How do you like me now!
I liked you just fine before?
I’ll venmo $10 to the first person willing to try it
I will do it live on camera lol
Bet
Haha you just just discovered kugel?
As an european mac and cheese is already an abomination that you dont even know if people actually eat it in america or the media is playing a trick on the whole of europe.
What exactly is the abomination here? Pasta with cheese is also eaten a lot in Europe. Just look at Spaghetti cacio e pepe or Käsespätzle?
Well the proportions of the ingredients are different and european cheese is usually made out of milk wnd not plastic. I made the huge mistake of going to an italian restaurant(had a good rating) and spent a good chunk of money on one of the worst meals i ever ate in my life. But look if you like it i have nothing against you just dont try to call it italian.
