🧑‍🍳 Eight American foods banned in other countries.

I’m good with the Mac and cheese being banned, it should be everywhere.
Not a fan of creamer so that one is ok as well.
Haven’t had fruit loops in years so it does not matter to me one way or the other.

Meh. Don't care. I'll continue to eat what I eat. And that includes Ritz crackers and pork. And since I don't travel outside the U.S. (hardly travel at all, if I'm honest), I don't have to worry about not having them in another country.

The food and chemical lobby has had its way regarding food dye, so the change is good. Instant potatoes, mac n cheese, grits, most snack foods, most premade foods - hell people, read the labels. If there's something you can't pronounce, don't eat it.

I use the Yuka app to identify problematic ingredients. I recommend it. I ignore the warnings on smoke flavoring. A man has to live.

When I was a kid that was my go to cereal when I was sick. (About the only time Mom would buy a box.) Tim hit the nail on the head with their artificial dyes...took all the taste away as well.

We should ban hominy.

Ever tried pozole? I'd keep hominy just for that.

You're getting into this genre again. There is no definition of pozole. It's so different every where you go.

Name those countries.

Mongolia... not willing to try horse meat.
Uzbekistan (See Mongolia)
Kazakhstan (See Mongolia and Uzbekistan)
Somalia... not a fan of animal organ street sausage.
England, I'll give them the fish and chips, but the rest is pretty bland.
Any country that's main dish is Hummus, That is some nasty
All of the Norse countries... Iceland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark... all of the countries that allow their fish to ferment (rot).

Never tried it. What is it?

I'm going to interpute here. Kayne. Shut up.

This is an analogy. Not a description. In your life how many different "grits" have you had? It's all the cook, the time.

This thing with pozole? It's like a TTU cheerleader. You never know where it came from. (yeah, I think that was funny.)

Google the word and see how many different dishes.

Think, though i could be mistaken, they all include hominy. I'm aware of the red and green versions and, like most soups everyone adjusts seasoning and extras to personal taste.

I'm not sure how many different grits I've had but it's been a bunch. Folks used to get local milled then they'd get some from TN then whatever the Navy called grits, still not sure what that was. It's been a lot.

Only had a few pozoles and other than one being green they were similar. Kinda like grits with salt and butter vs grits with sugar. I highly prefer one but technically it's still grits.

It's a Latin soup with hominy and various meats, spices, and chilies. Good cold weather dish.

When they don't know, it's called shit and goes on a "shingle"

Had that a few times too. Luckily we had fresh eggs most of the time and breakfast was usually my dinner so I'd have a 3 egg omelet and crash until the berthing inspections and incessant announcements started up.

 

[footballer]

Ok. I get it. I eat grits from time to time but not a fan of grits either.
Hominy by itself or in any dish? Pozole? Nah, just give me a tacko or a cotc.
The taste of hominy comes from the ingredients used to make it. Very off putting for me.
