Doesn't even have to be dinner

[–] omgarm@feddit.nl 15 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Without paying much attention or zooming in I could tell this was Dutch. Then I saw the white chair, the cheese and de Ruijter.

[–] Frostbeard@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (7 children)

The white chair is TripTrap made by Stokke (At least the original design, guess it's been pirated by other makers) This could have been any Nordic country as well apart from the details ofc :) I blame IKEA for that

So the Norwegian Forest Cat is sitting on the Norwegian children chair :)

Edit. Think it might be a siberian actually...

They're Maine Coons actually! Brother and sister.

Hard and soft tacos? How accommodating.

[–] gentooer@programming.dev 10 points 1 year ago (5 children)

Are hard tacos actually nice to eat? Whenever I see them in movies and such, it seems like the tortilla would just shatter the moment you bite into it.

It's like a tortilla made of a giant cornchip. Breakage can be an issue but they don't explode like glass or anything.

[–] idunnololz@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Soft tacos are easier to eat but you can't get Doritos crunchy taco shells as a soft taco

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Have you ever had a tostada?

[–] fushuan@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

That's just toast in Spanish, it's not a specific meal or anything.

Why not both indeed.

Crunch wraps!

Soft taco around a hard taco.

Tuxedo Batman is so polite, and cute.

10/10 deserves dinner.

Literally just finished eating White People Tacos... so good. The cat is the only creature there with any taste.

[–] Klear@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Does the colour of the skin of the ingredients really affect the taste?

[–] door_in_the_face@feddit.de 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

White people tacos refers to a specific way of making tacos, which has little to do with any Mexican recipe. It's named that way because it's usually eaten by white people.

[–] KrankyKong@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

And it mf slaps frfr

It's not limited to only white people

But white people love it the most

Where is dinner at? I will be there for taco night every time.

[–] gedaliyah@lemmy.world 21 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And on Taco Night no less‽

[–] scarabic@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I am so gratified to learn that others use this term, too. Ain’t nothing wrong with some hamburger meat in a large tortilla chip with cheddar cheese, but it is most definitely not the same food item as you get from a taco joint. This is one of those home cooking exclusives.

[–] chalupapocalypse@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (3 children)

People shit on these tacos but it's a way better use of ground beef than fucking manwich or hamburger helper or meatloaf, or anything else besides burgers.

[–] Markus29@feddit.nl 2 points 1 year ago

TIL about manwich and hamburger helper, those look disgusting indeed. Only similar thing we had is Pasta carbonara in bag which was not to bad actually if you add your own veggies.

[–] scarabic@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yeah that’s a good point. We make some pretty gourmet meatloaf at my house so I might quibble with you on that one. But I am sure there’s some awful meatloaf out there too. Manwch is just… I can’t even. Isn’t it basically dog food you put on bread and call it a sandwich?

I was going to comment the same excitement to someone else who used it above but couldn't think of a good way to phrase it without sounding mildly bigoted.

[–] _lilith@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago

Damn I would have eaten that whole spread growing up. Late for dinner? more like foods gone

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 15 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (3 children)

I know the seasoning packets say to drain the fat from the hamburger after browning, but it always leaves it so dry. I never drain the fat out or add water and I let it all marinate for at least an hour before serving. It's so, so much better.

I thought it was weird my SO grandma's cat ate at the table with us but I guess it's not unusual.

[–] FreakinSteve@lemmy.world 13 points 1 year ago

White people taco niiiiiight!!

Next taco night, add a bit of water to your sour cream to make it a little bit runny. Then add a bit of salt, some lime juice and smoked paprika. Is nice.

[–] gentooer@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This is why I prefer low-fat sour cream for burritos and tacos, it's a little runnier. I just throw some finely diced shallots in there and leave it for some time in the fridge.
