You wouldn't be assuming that everyone on Lemmy is American, would you? Because I lost my shit over that too.

    Food is Anarchy dude, Live by Your Own Rules! Star Butterfly pours sugar onto a spicy chimichanga with a smile while Marco Diaz looks on in horror at the perceived food crime.

    That's hydrochloric acid, though. Big no-no for ingestion according to my uncle who's a doctor and my step brother who teaches chemistry.

    I will go on record as saying I don't give a shit if there's pineapple on my pizza. I wouldn't order it that way, but I'll enjoy a pineapple, jalapeño, ham pizza if a slice is put in front of me.

    Raisins in Mac and cheese... I can imagine it's probably tasty enough, but the rubbery consistency of raisins in tandem with sticky pasta is what I find revolting

    I don't get it.

    Is raisins in Mac n cheese like, a big thing in other countries and us Americans just don't get it? If so I guess more power to you, that is news to me. I'd try anything once but I don't really like raisins to begin with so it's a bit of a tough sell.

    And yes, pineapple on pizza is delicious. I've seen some truly abhorrent pizza toppings from elsewhere in the world, so I don't think we have some kind of monopoly on those crimes.

    Raisins? Pff. Never heard of that. Frozen green peas though? That's where it's at for the boxed Mac and cheese.

    The problem with Pineapple on pizza is that everyone thinks ham goes with it. That's ok, but pepperoni and pineapple is so much better, and nobody ever gets to try it because of "Hawaiian" pizza.

    There's a big difference.

    One you're putting berries on cheese with carbs

    The other you're putting berries in cheese with carbs

    See the issue?

    I have been up and down a few posts concerning this and have yet to find (maybe i missed a couple) anyone who has tried this and reported back.

    I am beginning to think that this was just some housewives joke on the internet.

    "You know what, this should really rattle some budgies if i just say i add a few raisins. oooo I am such a devil" and little did she know just how well it worked.

    On a basis of raisins and cheese whiz being good, I think it might have a little bit of charm.

    Pineapple on pizza is such a forced debate, nobody normal sincerely cares that much, and anyone who does is either pretending or has a toddler-level approach to food. The "authentic Italian" gatekeeping is also incredibly stupid and ironic, given Italy's history of appropriating other culture's foods then claiming they are the arbiters of the most "authentic" version of said food.

    My fav dolce pizzas to make are cinnamon date puree with pecans and brown sugar sprinkled over top, or a sliced pear/apple with brie and a Balsamic drizzle.

    I'm allergic to pineapple. I put habenero hot sauce on my mac. There's zero chance I'm adding raisins.

    When Americans make Mac and cheese does it usually only contain macaroni and cheese? Or do they add other things?

    Here in Belgium we call it macaroni with ham and cheese because we put pieces of ham in it.
