ERASERHEAD (1977) dir. David Lynch — In Heaven, everything is fine. In Heaven, everything is fine. In Heaven, everything is fine. You’ve got your good things. And I’ve got mine.
I’m armed to the teeth Like a fucking animal I ruin everything I get my bony hands on
And here we go, now Over the bridge of sighs We will get a cross like christ, crucified It’s like a birth but it is in reverse Never gets better, always gets worse
I’ll gnaw at anything New England is mine, And it owes me a living
Step one Step two Step three Step four, we fall through the floor Fall through the floor Fall through the floor
I want to feel like I feel when I’m asleep I want to feel like I feel when I’m asleep I want to feel like I feel when I’m asleep
I am irritated to an almost irrational degree by this entire article that consists of “I HAVEN’T HAD THIS FOOD AND IT LOOKS WEIRD, THEREFORE IT IS MONSTROUS”
Like maybe four or five of them are gross?
They even try to call these long bean pods “scary” and compare them to “spiders” repeatedly. Holy shit fucking live a little or at least realize there are more than four foods in the entire world
Other things that frighten, confuse and disgust this writer:
-Fish but from a fish that’s very big
-Marshmallow creme, in general
-Fruit from a can (OF COURSE)
-Ham, but stuffed with greens
So many of these “gross” things are just ethnic dishes too…??
I like how shredded wheat is apparently this horrifying thing only people in Colorado have ever heard of.
How on earth are bierocks gross?? They’re just like any other baked dumpling but with German flavors… Also they’re a big staple in my city, which is the largest in Kansas… :/
This is the most ridiculous one, to me:
“Virginia: Brunswick stew If you’re a fan of slurping up vegetables mixed with meat, then it’s probably fine to eat this, except for the fact that the meat used can vary.”
It… stew. Just, normal… regular… stew.
OK LOOK
Cincinnati-style chili isn’t “chili”. It’s a meat sauce with not a lot of tomato, seasoned with allspice and unsweetened cocoa, more like a molé, without the ground chilies element. If you think of it as “regular” chili, you will be SORELY disappointed. (P.S. The black bean stuff at Skyline is 1000x more delicious)
AND OF COURSE SPICED TOMATO GOES WITH PASTA WTF
Guys. This dude isn’t comparing the bean pods to spiders. He thinks they’re actually spiders: “According to Thrillist, there are different flavors of these eight-legged creatures.”
He thinks… the beans… are spiders.
Also fuck off, ambrosia (or the green stuff, as I’ve always called it) is FUCKING BEAUTIFUL.
He thinks people just fucking throw whatever they found dead on the side of the road into a stew: “So you might be eating something other than chicken when you get this
dish, like rabbit or “whatever else [Virginians have] access to.”
Like, please go play in traffic.
First off, yeah, scrapple is unsettling. As a native pennsylvanian I will be the first to say that pig offal, oats, and spices molded into bricks is not appealing to everyone. Doesn’t stop it from being delicious though. It is essentially American haggis.
But FUCK YOU, PORK ROLL IS A GODSEND.
is pork roll/taylor ham really the grossest food the author could find from jersey lmao
i’m surprised they went for processed meat over something like fucken disco fries
this is objectively the worst article about food I have ever read
