Steamed Sponges

I’m glad to see that’s just cake/pudding, I thought you were steaming sea sponges…

Codpiece@feddit.uk on 13 Apr 13:58 next collapse

Don’t be silly. It’s bath sponges.

frongt@lemmy.zip on 13 Apr 18:15 collapse

Where do you think bath sponges come from?

Treczoks@lemmy.world on 15 Apr 06:01 collapse

I would not put this past some kitchens. In fact, they could be steaming cleaning sponges for the same consistency and flavour.

Just more blatant anti-Americanism from our so called allies.

This is sarcasm, right?

Southern fried chicken comes from Scotland and WAfrica. And the EAsians have done heroic work in fried poultry tech. But the idea of shredding an animal with industrial machines and recombining it all with meat glue and fillers into appetizing dinosaur shapes, rolling it in breadcrumbs and frying it golden brown and crispy is 10,000% American and you can’t deny it.

So does this include fish and chips? Is that an actual school meal in the UK? We definitely got a version of it in USA schools, although it would probably be blasphemous to any person from the UK.

Why? Was it cooked properly?

You don’t really want to know the detailed answer to this question.

we said the chicken nuggets were “beak to claw”… So the fish were fin to flipper? gill to dorsal? I’m not sure which, but they were gross. (LOTS of bits you couldn’t quite identify, in a “stick").

Well I’m not sure if US is 1st world or not. But it’s pink paste here.

they came from liquified old gym mats.

There’s very little meat in these gym mats

Tollana1234567@lemmy.today on 15 Apr 05:20 collapse

or using GRADE F meat.

This will be devastating for most school cafeterias. How dare they forbid everything on the menu just for being unhealthy!

In the end, some of the employees might have to learn to actually cook food like a … cook?
