There was some kind of media cycle about European football fans discovering they like ranch dressing. I think some interviewer ask a fan(or maybe a player) what the best thing about america is an they answered ranch. edit: appearantly it’s a psyop
It’s not unheard of in Europe and there are similar sauces but it’s not super common.
Haggis isn’t actually bad tasting on its own. It just tastes like corned beef hash, which is just kind of an American poverty food. My greatest criticism of it is that it’s unnecessarily carnivorous: If you’re going to eat meat in the first place then why wouldn’t you eat something that tastes particularly good?
had haggis some years ago. was with a table full of anglos and burgerlanders in scotland. all others were too terrified to even try it, since it’s the “other” food they’ve been raised to fear since birth.
im not an organ meat guy, but it’s pretty clear from the first bite why this traditional food endures. they absolutely hook it up in that casing.
out of all the other 50+ foreigners, only one other person tried the haggis and we both were fans.
though, they were already an admitted organ meat enjoyer who made their own weird shit at home.
everyone else looked at us like we were crannog men eating muddy frogs from a ditch while they drooling and noisily scarfed down their breakfast sausages.
Yeah I know, I just was lucky enough to not have that experience and so as an adult organ meat grosses me out. I’m not trying to make a judgment on people who like it though and especially not people who didn’t have other choices growing up
I used to be a waaaaaaaaaaaaaay picky eater, like holy shit. One time my friend’s mom made me popcorn rice and i couldn’t eat it because it tasted weird, i wanted plain white rice
I’m better now though and i’d smack child me if i could
I remember the year that all changed, my dad got a big promotion at the factory and my mom finished school and became a teacher
Both in strong unions
Went from eating rice and beans 5 days out of the week and maybe Chinese takeout once every month to eating fresh meat and veg on the regular
Like, I want everyone to be able to eat decent and it breaks my heart knowing that my childhood diet of subsistence is far too common and for no reason other than some bourgeois fuck wants an ivory backscratcher
Are the Scottish really into ranch dressing, is that how they make haggis palatable?
It’s not a big thing outside the US, so World Cup travelers are discovering that they really like ranch dressing.
Who ever said that the US doesn’t have its own culture??
i have eaten cool ranch doritos for years and i still don’t know what “ranch” is
I think it’s just buttermilk dressing with chives and black pepper.
I don’t know why it’s the national sauce of the US, but it is.
Mix chives, parsley, dill, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper with mayo and milk.
Its a creamy salad dressing that was invented on some ranch in California. We Yaks love dipping shit in it, particularly chicken.

Might as well use the whole animals. They haven’t yet breed an animal that is 100% prime cuts.

Im just not an eating organ meat kinda guy, it’s just not my bag
Growing up poor, I still remember the days of eating canned meat sometimes because that was all we had
That and offal
Didn’t love it, but people gotta eat

No worries
I was a picky kid too (coz of the autism) and I was rather infamous amongst my friends because of it
Probably wouldn’t smack my younger self though
I was a very depressed little kid
You probably didn’t deserve a good whack and maybe i didn’t either but it does feel very rude of me to have not eaten that rice
cleaning chitlins, you gotta do what you gotta do
Exactly

liver patte is alright on bread or crackers with a bit of cheese or certain kinds of hot sauce
I’m sure I’d probably like it but i’d have to not think about it being liver
Haggis is actually really good, I’m disappointed you can’t get it where I live, stupid laws
