You can put Sriracha and mustard on your microwave corndog.

If your comment is remotely food related and not a blatant attempt to troll you can post it here.

Yes, this includes putting ketchup on well done steak. Just don’t mention any proper nouns about the people who do that.

    I prefer beans in chili, no matter what Texas has to say on the matter.

    I’m unsure what else to say. I don’t think I have many food thoughts other than I like eating it, and you can eat yours however you want!

      Texan here: chili is spicy diarrhea in or on a serving instrument. Add whatever you want to it. If it looks like diarrhea and tastes good to you, then it’s chili.

      Next person who insults your chili doesn’t get a bowl/plate/Frito bag/handful/upside-down shot glass.

    Ice cream and tacos.

    Basically sub sour cream for ice cream.

    Taco Bell and Coldstone was my go-to combo years ago.

              why do you tempt and torture me, I must know what ice cream flavor you used for your tacos 😫

              (upon reading the sentence I just wrote, I feel an awareness that, yes, every day we stray further from God’s light, but something lures me into the dark with perverse promise)

              I seek the fruit of forbidden knowledge, please initiate me into your taco ice cream cult🙏

                Honestly whatever ice cream you favorite will work best, obviously vanilla (ish) works best, but vanilla, chocolate, or anything similar works fine. I wouldn’t recommend strawberry… but I bet someone will.

                • ok, that’s roughly what I thought - something relatively plain.

                  In my mind, I could see vanilla being plain enough to be almost like a sweet alternative to sour cream as you mentioned, which is why I thought that was a good option, but I could see chocolate working, too (I actually put cacao powder in my Mexican cooking sometimes, it can really add a nice quality in the right amount).

    Ketchup only works on really cheap or really expensive steak.

    It’s equally good at cutting gristle as it is at cutting fat.

      I think people that tolerate ranch are just fine with it.

      I am not one of those people. I have a deep loathing for ranch.

            ironically the ranch I make is vegan and is made with a canola oil & safflower oil based dressing / mayo substitute

            I find fresh dill and garlic powder are the two main, important ingredients for getting that distinct “ranchy” taste … I do like to add a little bit of vinegar and some freshly ground black pepper, and a few other tricks - but in a quick pinch just some kind of creamy ingredient like mayo, sour cream, etc. with fresh dill and garlic powder is usually sufficient

  • I’ll order chicken rings with ranch and mozzarella sticks with marinara from White Castle, and you know what? Sometimes I dip the rings in the marinara and the sticks in the ranch, just to be naughty.

    I didn’t realize where this was posted and just saw the photo as I was scrolling.

    It kinda looked like some type of gore, glad it’s just some weird food I didn’t know about.

      Since you don’t know them I’m guessing they’re not available in your area so here’s a recipe. I haven’t tried it myself but it looks right.

      https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/244753/dads-homemade-corn-dogs/

      What we call corn many places call maize. The cornmeal used for polenta should be a good substitute if that’s easier for you to find.

      As for measurements:

      1 teaspoon= 5 ml.

      3 teaspoons = 1 Tablespoon = 15 ml.

      2 Tablespoons = 1 (liquid, ergo volume) ounce = 30 ml

      2 ounces = ¼ cup = 60 ml

      8 ounces = 1 cup = 240 ml

      Now, with your scale, you can weigh out 240 ML water, and use that to determine which cup in your cupboard will be most useful. With dry ingredients, don’t pack them down, just scoop it in, then scrape to level off the top with the back of a knife.

          You could make “Hush puppies” by just frying little spoonfuls of batter. Or coat something else like onion rings, maybe broccoli?

          Also, from eyeballing the recipe I think you could use it (the recipe) to make cornbread by adding ¼ cup of melted butter (to a whole batch) and baking it in a greased pan.

          At a glance, you should be able to add whatever batter you have left to a batch of corn bread/muffins.

        Some parts of the world have never had or heard of cornbread. An even larger portion of the world doesn’t know that it comes in both sweet and unsweet forms.

        In some parts of the world you might be facing criminal charges or social ruducule for suggesting that a bread can be made with a batter.

      Wait, you’ve never had the most glorious preparation of pig entrails and cornmeal? You’re seriously missing out. Corndogs are GOATed.

    At first I thought it was bbq sauce.

    I love mustard on corn dogs - I’m gonna have to give the Sriracha enhancement a try! Looks delish

      People have really weird choices on corn dog condiments. I prefer about a 50-50 mixture of yellow mustard and ketchup, but some people find mustard completely abhorrent. And in a lot of cases I find ketchup abhorrent.

      Put anything inside the dog other than cheese and bacon and you’re going to lose sales. And corn dogs are all about being the lowest denominator mass appeal product. Which is why you don’t find cheese and bacon flavored corndogs because you have to charge more for those and nobody’s going to pay more.

      • I don’t exactly mean it should be pre-filled, but more that the bottles with finer tips could be available and you fill it yourself. I might actually try it myself the next time I get some corndogs.

        But the bacon and cheese would be bomb af, too. 🤤

          Can’t go wrong with bacon and cheese.

          I’d love it if I could go to a store with my own bottles and top off with my favorite condiments.

      At the food counter at a dutch shop called HEMA, they sell pseudo hotdogs like this. They hollow out a baguette thing, squirt condiments inside, then stuff the hotdog in. It is very… well, inappropriate now that I describe it. But it definitely comes close to your idea.

    7AM and I need to make food… I’m thinking the last of the microwave chimichangas, sour cream and sriracha…
