Well, here's my stab: take a stone of sliced onion, clad in under-seasoned batter, deep-fry, then cram into a loaf tin. Voilà! Heartburn and bad breath in one mammoth, indigestible slab. Laughing

^^ Cheese on onion rings? That's just unamerican! Only thing we put cheese on is hamburgers, fries and macaroni. Okay and grilled cheese sandwiches.

P. S. Martha Stewart made an appearance on the Next TV Food Star program last Sunday. She had to judge the contestants foods. One contestant made "sloppy joes" which Martha thought was beneath her. To quote her "I never eat that kind of food". What? They didn't have sloppy joes in prison? Surely you jest.

Don’t forget the good old healthy, Philadelphia cheesesteak

I'm trying to remember the name of some American female cook type who's show used to be broadcast some years ago on Sky (I think).

Bit of a cross between Hyacinth Bucket & Loyd Grossman. I think the lady died a few years ago. Used to love watching her.

Any clues??

Found it - Julia Child. I think it was her accent that fascinated me most.

Edit: I think you'd have to go a long way to beat these

I think you are confusing the Yanks with the rest of the US, i.e. the South and the West.

The Yanks don't do that, however I can give you no guarantee for the rest of the country (and, to be honest, I'm really not that sure about New York City).

Btw, I enjoy French Fries (= 'chips') with malt vinegar on them. (The Brits know what I mean, the Americans are shaking their heads in unbelief and utter disgust. Laughing

)

You mean the Roman Chinese? Laughing

Right, you can´t argue about that.

@ KD yes there's no accounting for taste.
The East of Scotland prefer brown sauce on our chips instead of vinegar.
Its a peculiar brown sauce sort of watered down vinegerised HP sauce known as chippy sauce.
My sister gets a bottle to take back home when she visits
You cant get salt and sauce on your chips outside our area
Or Golden Wonder crisps

Mmmmm. Lovely. Although wifey & daughter have both got into this wierd idea of eating chips with salad cream Confused

Edit: although chips have never been the same since they stopped selling them in newspaper.

@ iMike

Wifey and daughter are not weird thats the way I eat them.
So that must be normal

In Iceland they eat them with mayonaise Rolling Eyes

I've never had cheese w/ onion rings either. I've never seen anyone else pair cheese w/ onion rings. And I'm 1000% sure Martha Stewart did not invent/create onion rings w/ cheese or otherwise & certainly would not shuttle any onion loaf out of her kitchen. I don't get piling onion rings on top of each other & calling it a loaf & neither does Martha. Rolling Eyes

Julia Child was brilliant.....even if she favoured the french cuisine...and served with the O.S.S. in France in WWII.

Big old moose of a lady, and one of a kind.

Bah. French fries, chips, onion rings, malt vinegar, brown sauce, all for wussies.

Poutine is the real thing.

(It's pronounced poo-TIN)

Posted: Sun Jun 22, 2008 10:48 pm

HA! I knew poutine would make an appearance sooner or later. Nectar of the gods.

When did BBQ sauce become a chicken gravy? Shudders at the thought. Surprised

BAH! Heartburn N00bs!

Try this.

Toast three slices of bread (perferably white bread. NO HEALTHY STUFF)

Next, butter one both sides, other two one side. assemble as so. one side buttered bread slice. Bacon. Ham slices. double buttered bread slice. Turkey slices. Chicken slices. last piece of bread. Cut and eat.

Frozen pizza. Add generous amounts of favorite cheese. (Mexican mixes from the store are great). Bake. Let cool and cut. Add sour cream on top. eat. Very Happy

Wash all down with 64 oz KFC bucket drink.

-waits for the screams of the health nuts.-

After reading this thread I felt I had to rush out and buy some...

Salad. You know the green, crunchy stuff, full of vitamins and fibre.

One of the lunchtime favourite for school kids round here seems to be chips and cheese Wink

and Irn Bru
And of course Scotland is the home of the deep fried Mars Bar.
I do worry for the next generation

We were in a pub in Anstruther and overheard a conversation at the next table, a wee boy and his mother.
" Maw, Maw, There's green stuff oan ma plate."
"Thats yir salad ya mug ye "

I dont know which worried me more, her parenting skills or the poor wee soul not knowing what salad looked like at his age.

<creak, groan> Thats me climbing down of my high horse

Elvis Presley's Grilled Peanut Butter
and Banana Sandwich

2 slices of white bread
2 tablespoons of smooth peanut butter
1 small ripe banana mashed
2 tablespoons butter
Spread the peanut butter on one slice of bread and the mashed banana on the other. Press the slices gently together. Melt the butter (or to be truly Elvis-like, melt bacon fat!), over low heat in a small frying pan. Place the sandwich in the pan and fry until golden brown on both sides. Eat it with a glass of buttermilk.
Please note: Elvis tended to eat 12-15 sandwiches a sitting! So belly up!

It makes as much sense as the USA denying entry to a well-known singer because of his name (and that's as far as I'm going with that) Shocked
