Don’t even pretend like y’all don’t have some weird shit on your menus.
Cheesecake is a bit of a misnomer. It's more like an etouffee in a crust.

I'm from Louisiana/Texas with family in the Midwest. When we'd visit for the holidays, it was some disgusting shit. Green, opaque jello molds with random foods suspended in it, pickles and cream cheese on toothpicks, and random "salads" like the ones above. My mom (from the south) made macaroni and cheese casserole one year up there and everyone was floored
Were the pickles with cream cheese wrapped in ham or some other deli meat? Because those are delicious.
I'm not going to lie, yes they are, but they're not Thanksgiving food, dammit!
😀
Those are delicious anytime snacks, I’ll have you know. (Seriously, I make them once a month or so. Great low cal snack)
I love Cajun food, but all of the dishes pretty much taste the same with different textures. Let's not pretend like Louisiana is the mecca of cooking here.
I don't mean to but compared to the image above, food in Louisiana looks like a Gordon Ramsey dish
Ahhh, Mom's pineapple cheese salad. Reminds me of when she used to handcuff us to the chairs and tell us to go ahead and scream while spooning it down our gullets. I miss her every day since the hay baler accident. Dinner just isn't the same.
Did they ever find out who started the baler?
There were too many sets of fingerprints on the button, like they all pressed it at once somehow.

My joke about being from Iowa is that you could have a salad potluck without ever seeing a piece of lettuce! My family's wildest is Snicker Salad, Tapioca Salad (marshmallows and mandarin oranges), and Cranberry Salad.
what in the actual fuck
Weirdly, while Snicker salad does have Snickers in it, the base is chopped green apples. (At least when I have seen it.)

Pineapple cheese salad
Never heard of this, wonder how it is baked on a pizza crust.
(Yes, everyone’s cries are delicious.)
No you actually made it sound good
From what I can tell, the primary ingredients are:
- Pineapple
- Cheddar cheese
- Crumbled bacon
- Mini marshmallows
The first three sound great on a pizza, but the marshmallows ruin it for me.
oh those are marshmallows. I thought they were some kind of white cheese cubes.
I’d try it at least once for science.

"Food"
Ambrosia is still the Queen of disgusting "salads"
You shut your whore mouth!
as a former salad cook, can confirm. ambrosia hurt my heart every day.
I postulate an evolutionary "Crabification" of culinary science:
Everything, at the terminus of its evolutionary branch, becomes casserole.
No.
Tastes like depression.
Both the era and the emotion.
You people are all speaking about food but I don't see any recipe here. I need to taste some of these Midwest or Louisiana cuisine before I have an opinion.
I genuinely want to taste this salad. Also, if it has potatoes in it, it is a salad in my country.
I'm from the midwest. This 'salad' looks to be chunks of cheddar, pineapple, bacon, and marshmallow. If they were feeling particularly spicy, they added some mayonnaise. You honestly have no need to try this.
I can't tell if that's bacon or some kind of nut. And because of the absolute bizarre combination already, I can't rule out either. Or both.

Pizza salad: tomatoes, peppers, mushrooms, lettuce, cubed mozzarella, pepperoni slices
Combine ingredients, discard lettuce, spread ingredients over flatbread of your choice, bake
Mother is a nutritionist that used to own a restaurant, girlfriend is a nutritionist that worked 15 years in restaurants. I'm disgusted most times I discover people's family recipes...
You can have my broccoli, bacon, and raisin salad and cookie salad when you pry them from my cold hardened arteries.
Why do all of these mid-west “salad” recipes have a 4-5 ingredients that seem ok, and then one god damn ingredient that is absolutely BONKERS. Like, why on earth does the cookie salad have mandarin oranges in it!? Whhhhhhyyyyyyyyyyy
Sometimes people put pineapple in it too but that doesn’t work as well. It doesn’t sound like it should work but it does. ¯\(ツ)/¯
Sigh… fair enough. Not going to yuck anyone’s yums, but I feel like I need to know the lore behind all of the various salads now. Is there a VaatiVidya for mid-western artery-destroying family-gathering side-dishes that I can binge watch on YouTube?

Any cold food is a salad.
Scotch eggs, sausage rolls. Serve with salad cream if there's any doubt.

What do these people call actual salads? You know, with vegetables.
Rabbit food.
Reminds me of The Gallery of Regrettable Foods.

Abominations
Has anyone tried these? They look and sound disgusting but I don't want to assume.
Have had. Is gross.
