Chicken of the sea and waffles?
I've noticed that American recipes often have ingredients like "1 packet (brand name) (foodstuff)". I wonder if this kind of advert is how it started.
Pretty sure that's exactly how that started. Much easier to sell more of your industrially made foodstuff if you give people some ideas about what to do with it.
I fear soup over waffles is a poor example of that but I understand.
Lots of American food companies use recipes on the box to give the buyer an idea of what to make. This was a part of American food packaging going back to the Depression; learning to work with what we had was the lesson of the period. It was a time of searching for what was cheap and learning how to make it palatable.
Also quite a few packages include recipes.
- my family recipe for pecan pie has always been from the bottle of Karo Syrup
- green stuff I made for New Years was originally from a package of Jello brand Pistachio instant pudding
- family pumpkin pie recipe was from a can of pumpkin
Use more of (brand name’s) stuff to sell more. That’s all there was to it. No idea why on Earth some of these were so horrendous, though.
I'm stuck trying to figure out if it's like creamy mushroom soup or they boiled the liquid out of the mushroom soup and made a mushroom soup flavoured hunk of...mushroom soup remains?
Like a thick chunky, overly strong flavoured, very american sounding hunk of processed flavours.
Is this what they are referring to when they say they want to "make America great again"?
If you want to watch a fabulously flamboyant gay man cook disgusting vintage recipes check out "Eye Spy Antiques" on YT.
A lot of fun.
I was assuming you were talking about B Dylan Hollis until you got to the name of the channel.
Worth checking out?
Holy shit, thank you for pointing out this dudes channel, he is fucking hilarious. I was hoping someone would cook these shitty recipes and try them out.
Edit: "gonna taste like shit, but it's stunning" ROFL
This dude is great
Looked it up. That dude looks like he really enjoys making videos.
Lol you weren't joking. This dude is cracking himself up.https://youtu.be/3eNDNCe4rRw
When all the flavor buds were covered by cigarette tar
I actually don't think this would be bad. Growing up, my mom used to make tuna casserole and it was one of my favorite casseroles. Looking at the recipe, this is mostly the same, except you sub noodles for waffles. What's one carb for another? I could do without the olives though...
Expert troll, my friend. But you can't fool me.
Yeah, people do savory waffles all the time, it's just waffles with a mushroom and tuna soup, kinda think it would taste good? Like a savory pastry maybe? Then again I'm also the kind of deviant who loves olives.
I actually don't think this would be bad. Growing up, my mom used to make syrupy waffles and it was one of my favorite breakfasts. Looking at the recipe, this is mostly the same, except you sub waffles for noodles. What's one carb for another? I could do without the strawberries though...
You can buy puff pastry, ready to be filled, in stores. We used to do that a lot. Just blend all scraps and spices we could find around the kitchen, put them into the pastry, shape it and bake it in the oven. Totally delicious.
might be slightly better than some of the stuff they put in jell-o back then.
also note the size of can tuna used to come in... SEVEN OUNCES (compared to the 5oz ones we've had now for like 15+ years)
But that 7oz of 50s tuna was also like 20% dolphin by weight. It's 5 ounces of tuna.
I've been watching "Sandwiches of History" on YT lately and I believe sometime in the 1980s people realized food could taste good
This is why we need to build the wall...! From the south Atlantic to the north Atlantic. The yankie threat can not go unabated.
Also, this is fitting punishment for the Belgians. They - and the entire world - knows they they did.
Wait, what DID the Belgians do?
Ask Africans.
Doesn't sound bad tbh..i like savory waffles. Don't sugar the dough (no idea if thats a thing, just guessing) and you are good to go

There's worse....
Amateur night compared to creamed corn bologna boats.
I really hate that so many memories of my one grandmother were being traumatized by these jello atrocities.
What a terrible day to have eyes
I'd be willing to try it
It might be potato waffles
It's just the Great Value version of fried chicken and waffles.
It’s honestly not that far from a tuna melt if you think about it.
I can't remember what the movie was, but there is a scene where someone eats a tuna melt at a diner. Shortly after they go to the toilet to throw up. I can't eat tuna melt since that day.
That's not a recipe, that is bio-terrorism.
Why? Why does every old weird recipe from the 1950s and 1960s include olives?
Gross, olives.
I would like to try it, depending on "mushroom soup" it might be great or disgusting, everything else is ok.
🤢🤮
Cyberpunk 2077 has a name for food made by using other pre-packaged foods together to make something new, but I always forget the term for it. SCOP always pushes itself to the front of my mind, but that's just the basis for a lot of the packaged food (Single Celled Organic Protiens to make synthetic meats and such).
Slop, perhaps?
So there's a comfort-food staple at my house that's distressingly close to this, but sounds even worse.
It's 1 can cream of mushroom, one can cream of chicken, one can of green peas, and one can of tuna heated in a skillet. That unholy mixture is then stacked on tops of layers of toast and seasoned with lemon pepper.
It looks like the kind of food that would attack Calvin in the old comics, but my family loves it. I'm not sure how good it actually is, or if it's just the comfort food from when we were really poor and that was a feast for us.
Yeah thanks, I think I don't want any of that either but you do you
Wait till you hear about chicken and waffles! How ridiculous! /s (or is it? 🤔)
Nah, chicken and waffles is pretty good actually. I mean, people also eat them with bacon and eggs. I just wouldn't want anything fishy to come near my waffles, IDK why, but it just feels wrong.
I agree chicken and waffles is good, but I also would try tuna and mushroom soup waffles not gonna lie.
