🧑‍🍳 Eight American foods banned in other countries.

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.
My mom used to make hominy and sausage in a skillet. You cover it with enough pig fat, it's not bad.
 
Throwing another one out there that my mom use to fix back in the day that I just couldn't eat. Fried Salmon patties. Them things stink up a house and are nasty. My sister loved them. I still can't eat them to this day.
"It's just a little bone. It won't hurt you."

...as you're squeezing the damn thing between your fingers wondering "I'm eating this? Is it competition with gristle?"
 
Covered in ketchup they weren't too bad.
Tourists love the two places. Most don't go due to the price or finding out there's no seating available. I have eaten at both Poogan's Porch and Magnolia's. I've seen their salmon burgers; tried the one at Magnolia's. Yeah, it wasn't anything like the ones we had cooked in the old skillet.
 
I have no problem eating salmon out of the can; that's lunch usually once a week or so.
Canned salmon just gets in my head.

Circumstances brought me back here from Tuscaloosa for a few months some...geez, a long time ago. I grabbed a job at Eagle's Landing Golf Club. Head's greens keeper, of all things. While it wasn't salmon, I took a can of tuna and crackers with me A LOT. Perfect thing to eat as the heat was moving in (and by that time I was playing golf.)

(I laugh thinking about this...had my own cart with a cooler, my clubs, herbicide and pesticide, maybe a rake depending on the day. By the time the GM got there at sun up I was on the back nine watering, while playing, while spraying weeds, and watering. They had a pumphouse that pulled all the water out of the reservoir...it was basically three holes at a time. Great "college" fill in job...TOS was just kicking about then.)
 
Raw horse is really good, had some in Japan
Now while I was doing my basic training at Ft. Dix. We were told after that some of the meat was from horse. This was in 1974, and during this time the government was trying to get us to eat this meat. Now the Army when you went to the chow line. We had two line to choose from, one was the main line, the other was the short line. The difference was main dishes or short order like burgers and hot dogs. We also had a full salad bar.

Think that rumor has been around forever.

Most galleys were set up that way, fast food or meat and 3.

In the middle east the shawarma options were often chicken or meat. No idea if the meat was lamb, beef, or what but most were good.
