Supes be fancy.
He puts ketchup in it
SHUT UP
Flavor enhancement needed after he over braises the stew meat. Classic X-ray vision blunder.
I think canonically Superman just really loves ketchup

It’s one of those things that can easily be awful if done incorrectly. They used to serve them for hot lunch at school and I hated them. Then I had a proper one when an adult and my eyes were opened.

Most closely associated with Boomers, so makes sense to know your audience.
Show me one who’ll eat a truly rare steak.

The one I tried was at some sort of street fair. I thought the batter-to-hot-dog ratio was all wrong. Could've just been a bad one

There’s an incredible asian eatery near me does all kinds of street food and they do a version of a corn dog. I have no idea what’s involved by its layered? So whatever meat then a coating of batter the. A coating of I think some sort of spiced breadcrumb ? All deep fried.
I’ll give one a go if I’m ever allowed back to normal food and off this regime.

I’ve seen Korean versions around, so I assume that’s what you’re dealing with.

I'm so sorry to do this, but I'm gonna start calling everyone on RM "you banana" when disagreeing with them.
You have no one to blame but yourself.

Never tried it, no clue what it actually is
Some kind of grey morning gruel
A boiled breakfast dish of oats and milk. Very tasty. Called "porridge" abroad.
Jorge wrote:"Grits"
What the fuck is that
Same thing but made from corn instead of oats. Not as tasty.
Jorge wrote:"Lobster bisque"
It's like a soup?
Yes. A creamy and thick seafood soup.
Jorge wrote:"Cream soda"
What? That's not real
Vanilla flavored soda. I'm guessing it was named that way because Americans are dumb.

A slang word for capicola. Italian sliced deli ham with a spicy rub around it.

A cooked hot dog on a stick, dipped in corn batter and deep fried.
Standard at state fairs, they do that with all kinds of things now and just call it "deep fried ______".
Quickie fat fuck redneck food.

Beef bourguignon is delicious and I can confirm it’s tough to make, I tried it once and it was a disaster

We’ve made it a bunch, didn’t seem that hard. Can you cook other things?
I even made a mushroom only version once, since my wife loves mushies. Was pretty tasty!

Did that libtard motherfucker just claim that oatmeal is better than grits? And did he talk shit about corn dogs?
Ban that dumb piece of shit.

I just think oats are way more flavorful than corn.
And if you read it again with an open mind, I really wasn't talking shit about corn dogs at all.
Leave it to our resident troll to make assumptions and act like a big snowflake.

You sound like you're from one of our vassal states (like ello). Or are you one of those self hating Americans everyone hates so much?
