have you ever had a hamburger with custard it's a disgusting american food
after our first few incarnations you let us know about other questionable foods that
should probably never be spoken of so here you go 10 more american foods that should be banned
spray cheese what do you think is coursing through my veins right now
cheese whiz we all know that the cheese capital of the united states is wisconsin they claim to
be true cheese connoisseurs so how is it that spray cheese was produced in wisconsin early on
since it is probably the furthest thing from real cheese there is not only does it contain no real
cheese but it's also really harmful to your body wired once called spray cheese one of the world's
most unnatural foods and it rightfully owns up to the name that's not natural spray cheese contains
twice the amount of salt that normal cheese does but this one comes with a little bonus a bunch of
chemicals that should never ever be consumed by any living person can cheese made with 12
real cheese yet here we are spraying that stuff on crackers and making leaning towers of cheese
basically anything delivered from a pressurized can should not be on your grocery list ever maybe
it's time the fda takes a new look at this fake cheese wannabe and puts a stop to the madness
brain sandwiches it's too thin if i were making a foot long brain sandwich at quiznos
ever heard of the expression brain food well unfortunately no eating this very peculiar meal
will not make you smarter brain sandwiches not a euphemism by the way are surprisingly very popular
in the united states specifically in indiana they used to be made with cow brain but thanks
to mad cow disease it was switched to pig brain which to be fair doesn't sound any more appealing
i think i'll pass the pig brains are breaded then fried before usually being served with some
mustard in between two buns because we all know that mustard can make just about anything at least
palatable brain sandwiches are most popular down around the southern tip of the state in and around
evansville where the hilltop inn is one of the most celebrated curators of this delicacy you
like zombies zombies eat brains despite the very bizarre nature of this dish it's still somehow
very popular and has its fair share of dedicated fans believe it or not there is actually a proper
way to cook the brain to ensure it's at its best for example you need to make sure you have really
cold hands when you handle it to ensure that it doesn't end up um melting away gator tails
see you later alligator when most people think about alligators their first instinct is to be
scared or to feel some type of fear basically anything except hunger unless you're from florida
then you eat these things as appetizers like their mozzarella sticks if there's one thing
about florida it's that the gators run around like they own the place in backyards golf courses
they're found practically everywhere sure make yourself at home this occurrence could offer up
some explanation for the resident's predilection for gator tales the sunshine state abounds with
hot food destinations and gator tales have their very own spot on many local restaurants menus
in fact many southerners actually fry up the tails and eat them as casual snacks
so you know if you ever go on a picnic it's the perfect way to warn the live alligators in the
area to stay away from your basket floridians stick these in stews mash them into burgers
eat them with gator ribs and the list goes on much like any exotic meat it supposedly tastes
just like chicken tastes like chicken yes this cold-blooded killing machine tastes like rubbery
succulent chicken also the lean white colored meat is so high in protein and low in fat content that
it's regarded as a healthy food who would have thought avocado pie avocado i don't know how to
pick out an avocado in recent years there's been this whole wave of sudden appreciation for avocado
in all forms avocado toast in particular has seen some new heights of popularity and has become the
ultimate instagramable meal however it looks like there might be a new kid in town that's trying to
dethrone the popular avocado toast another day another avocado toast in case you didn't know
there is such a thing as an avocado pie and it's a californian creation through and through
at first sight the avocado pie looks like a classic key lime pie with its bright neon
green and fluffy texture but as soon as you take your first bite all the similarities disappear
oh except that it also usually comes on a graham crust you said it was a key lime pie many people
have their very own recipe for avocado pie which is a little odd because how many ways
are there to make mashed avocado and pie crust taste good the most frequently used ingredients
however include avocados obviously whipped cream and sweetened condensed milk okay when you say
it like that it doesn't sound so bad you might even think you'd like to try it out just to see
what a whipped avocado guacamole style pie would taste like if that's the case you must have a
tremendous love of avocados chitterlings chitlins that's pig intestines for y'all that don't know
chitterlings also known as chitlins are how to put this delicately a culinary dish usually
made from the large intestines of a hog in a way it shouldn't bother us too much after
all we eat intestines all the time at our hot dogs right my hot dog the only difference is
with a hot dog you don't see the parts you're eating you can pretend like it's just regular
mystery meat and keep on eating carefree but with chitterlings the intestines are right there
in your face boiled or fried without any disguise it's not only hog intestines though sometimes
the intestines of cattle and other animals are also used this dish is popular in the south but
especially in south carolina they have an annual chitlin strut which is dedicated to promoting
the goodness of chitterlings they want people to love these so badly they put on a whole festival
in their honor complete with a beauty pageant the prettiest pig beauty pageant has been replaced by
a pork rib barbecue competition chitterlings are said to be more tender than bacon and the taste is
supposed to be comparable with nothing else maybe that's a good thing or maybe it's not turducken
like a turducken a poultry within a poultry it's like inception with meats this one is such an
american thing only in america would you find a massive and slightly impressive creation like this
one turducken is the perfect thanksgiving dinner to impress or scare off your guests and it's quite
simple to prepare too all you need is a deboned chicken oh and a deboned duck and a deboned turkey
then you just have to stuff the entire chicken into the duck and later stuff it into the turkey
add some stuffing between each layer and voila you have got yourself three layers of bird all in one
convenient bite i'm not even mad that's amazing not sure if this is genius or concerning but the
point is it's scary as heck it's supposed to be unusual wonderful and have great taste we can
certainly agree on the unusual part it also turns out that the origins of the turducken are nearly
as complicated as the dish itself no one seems to agree on who came up with it first maybe whoever
did doesn't want to take the blame for this giant franken bird it was him he did it some say that it
was chef paul prodom who invented the dish others claim it's dr gerald r lenasa a surgeon from new
orleans who should be credited well whoever's brilliant idea it was to combine not one not
two but three birds together it's okay we don't really need to know clam pizza can i please eat
my ham and clam pizza in peace that's wrong those toppings are wrong ah pizza it's such a hard thing
to mess up no matter how you prepare it it seems to always be delicious well to a certain degree
remember when you thought anchovies were the worst possible thing you could ever put on your pizza
then everybody started hating on pineapple he had his first heart attack when he saw pineapple on
a pizza now clams are the new victim of pizza shaming some people believe that pizza should
be minimalist and others especially those living in new haven connecticut think putting loads of
clams on a pizza is the best way to go that's right these naked slippery slug-like mollusks
that kind of look like aliens are part of the classic dish over there and it has been praised
pretty heavily okay clams by themselves are pretty good pizza obviously does pretty well in the tasty
department but when they are joined together on a warm white sauced pie something just seems a
little off it's more likely you'll end up with a white hot mess than a presentable meal let's just
say the chances of this becoming your new go-to pizza favorite are pretty slim it's probably best
just to stick with the classic sometimes you've just got to stick to the good old classic toppings
and leave the seafood where it belongs in the ocean but as weird and unappetizing as clam
pizza sounds people still go crazy for this stuff why no clue but we don't intend to find out nutria
rodent yum when you think about foods that look a bit controversial to eat what do you think about
perhaps frog's legs or maybe chicken hearts well forget everything you know about ambiguous eating
because nutria takes the cake every time think about it how would you feel about eating what's
best described as a large semi-aquatic river rat boiled in a crock pot for four hours no no no no
no yeah probably not high on your list of must-haves but in louisiana it's a delicacy
a bayou classic even it might be a little off-putting to think about eating a large
rodent like that but apparently it tastes just like chicken or almost apparently it's a rougher
tougher version of chicken the nutria or the giant river rat is an animal native to south america
introduced to the u.s in the early 1900s whose population growth is kind of hard to control
the solution why not eat them oh god what i could eat well here's why not it's an enormous
terrifying orange toothed water beast that not everyone can stomach obviously back when it was
first cooked people simply used what they had to get by but today there are about a hundred
other options that come to mind before eating nutria no amount of cajun spice in the world will
ever be enough to erase those nightmare-fuelling teeth from our minds burgu maybe stew stew yeah
to be fair this meal can actually be quite tasty and politically correct it just depends on what
you decide to make it with burgu is a stew usually prepared communally at social gatherings in the
midwest and south especially in kentucky it's the basis for civic fundraisers and the go-to
dish when you have tons of leftovers there are a lot of different ways to prepare burgu but the
traditional one is made using venison or mutton however it's not always this straightforward
burgu also has a pretty cynical nickname that it also goes by and it's entirely accurate it's
often referred to as roadkill soup because more often than not you have no idea what's actually
in your stew i'd rather be roadkill that can be arranged it could contain anything from squirrel
raccoon and even possum basically any kind of animals available mixed in with your vegetables
sure eating those types of small animals makes sense in a case of emergency but why use them
when you have so many other options not found on the side of the road despite its previous rather
booming reputation burgoo is slowly declining in popularity most likely due to health warnings
kentucky's traditional roadkill dish is now being made more and more often with chicken and pork all
of us love chicken saying goodbye to the critters st paul sandwich you had your last egg sandwich
the saint paul sandwich looks pretty harmless at first but when you take a closer look it's
all kinds of weird available in american chinese restaurants in the st louis area of missouri the
saint paul sandwich has all of the basics of a sandwich pickles onions mayo lettuce and tomato
all in between two slices of white bread you got a sandwich the part we're not so sure about is the
big piece of egg foo young among all of this for those who don't know egg foo young is an
omelet dish found in chinese cuisine legend has it that the saint paul sandwich was invented by
a chinese-american chef in the city who wanted to please mid-western palace in the 1940s and named
it after his hometown while it may not sound like the most appetizing dish out there most critiques
have been surprisingly positive for the people of st louis this sandwich is one of their signature
dishes and they take great pride in it this place makes the best sandwich in the world not
so sure this one will become the next big thing anywhere else mind you but you never really know
