Indeed. It’s frightening to know that people eat this chemical shit that shouldn’t be called food.

Its canola oil, fake cheese, and yellow food dye. Better than whatever monstrosity Taco Bell comes up with.

What a weird take. Both are shit tier foods. Not sure what makes spray cheese somehow better.

Don’t get me wrong, I love shit tier foods! And I think people should be free to enjoy them as they please. But what in the world makes one overly processed product better than the other? We aren’t comparing a 5 course meal at a 5 star restaurant to a bowl of instant ramen. You’re comparing stuff in the same tier as each other.

Not too different than saying Taco bell is just a tortillas with fake meat and lettuce.

So there’s a scene in A Goofy Movie where a guy gets paid for his part in some shenanigans by some edible substance in a spray bottle. Given that I was a kid in a non-English speaking country growing up and watching this movie dubbed to my native language, the substance that the character proclaims that he has received is ‘Caramel sauce’.

It was only later in life, when I watched the movie with the original English language, that I learned that the character in reality proclaimed ‘Cheez-Wiz’.

All of this to say that the concept of spray cheese was so foreign to our country that they decided to substantially change this scene.

Looking back, I think they should have kept the original - gulfing down caramel sauce straight from the bottle just doesn’t hit the same as gulfing down spray cheese.

Isn’t Cheez-Wiz a brand?

I wouldn’t mind at all when they replace product placement.

Looks like I misremembered, the actual line was ‘Chedda Wizzy’: https://youtu.be/V9gOOAWebK8

A few years back, I was dating an Italian woman (she was a uni lecturer here in the UK). One day, she saw me grating cheddar cheese onto a pizza and she went fucking mental

It’s anoying, but you get used to it.

The thing is, if you don’t complain about the food quality, daddy capitalism will make sure you’ll eat the cheapest garbage possible.

And I think all the complaining is why food is so damn good in Italy. As a person from the North Europe, I can tell you that almost everything tastes so much better in Italy, and food is overall much higher quality.

That’s why if you see a fat person in Italy, it’s likely a tourist.

What an obnoxious behaviour. What problem she had with cheddar cheese on pizza?

“This is not the cheese for pizza! Why? Why you do this?!” she kept saying over and over, I thought she was joking at first but genuinely distressed. Tbh she was a bit of a strange woman (and I say this as an objectively strange man). It didn’t last longer than a few months!

Final straw was when she had been saying she missed home badly, so for her next visit I bought a dining table, assembled it myself, bought a bunch of Italian foods, some Italian wine, got it all setup with a nice tablecloth and spread when she got to mine, and she literally went “meh” when she sat down hahaha.

This is not the proper sauce! Why? Why you do this?!

I’m American and I think food in the UK is awesome. I don’t like everything, but what I do like, I really like! Plus y’all have cute and silly names for everything, it’s great. I’m sure most Americans would feel the same way if they ever get the chance :)

American food is closer to a chemical formulation than it is to “cuisine”.

Only because they’ve never had beans on toast. Well because they’ve only ever eaten American style baked beans.

Do Americans even have toasters, they seem to think that a good breakfast constitutes a pile of butter and syrup, so I’m going to assume that they’re not prepared to eat anything that doesn’t have 300 kg of sugar in it.

What’s odd is it is literally cheese though. It’s called cheese product because it is a spread, not whole cheese, and has been processed to not require refrigeration long term.

I did not know this until I googled it, so figured I’d share.
