Right now, here’s the rules:
- Posts must include an image or video containing food or drink.
- It must be unusual or cursed in some way. a. For example, something like Doritos Milk would be unusual, but normal milk would not.

How to tag:
To tag your posts, please prepend or append the tag name inside square brackets. For example,[OC] Foo bar baz or foo bar baz [Meta] would be acceptable. Multiple tags will require separate pairs of brackets, like so: [Edited][OC] foo bar baz
Here are the current tags:
- Edited - The image was manipulated with editing software.
- OC - You made this cursed food yourself!
- Meta - Relating to the community itself.

(BTW, I’m looking for someone to help mod here! I myself would not be enough if this community goes beyond a few posts a day.)

I wonder if it would hold together well enough for a grilled cheese...
You have to be stopped
You stopping progress must be stopped
You could dust each side lightly with starch of flour while still cold and fry in oil and that might hold together (and be quite crispy). Worst case, you may need to toss the noodles in the starch/flour, shape, and chill again first.
I think you could do it but you would have to move quick.
Slice the spaghettloaf into two slices, and spread mayo on one side of each slice. Keep the spaghettloaf in the fridge until youre ready to go.
You want a sizable pool of oil with a high smoke point - heat it up until it's nearly smoking, then quickly add 2 sliced spaghetti, mayoless side down. The first side in the oil will form the inside of your grilled cheese, let it sizzle until it starts to crisp, then flip, add your cheese and let both outsides sizzle a minute to gain structure.
Once both outsides have some rigidity, fold the sandwich together. Continue to flip & cook until desired color is reached.
Sprinkle with salt, pepper, fresh parsley, and a little parmesan cheese, and dip in your favorite marinara sauce.
Recipe can be made vegan with vegan cheese and mayo.
When I was a kid, my mom used to occasionally put leftover spaghetti in a pie dish as a "crust" and use that to make quiche.
Based on that, I would say very gently dip each slice of your spabreadi in an egg wash and briefly bake. I suspect it would solidify enough for grilled cheese. Texture would probably be fucking weird though.
