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.
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.)
you’re fucking kidding me right?
Snickers, green apples, and cool whip
and it’s fucking delicious. Just had it at Thanksgiving.
That’s because it’s mostly fuckin sugar mate fuckin hell 😂
So what does the word salad actually mean then? So far it appears to be a mix of anything, served in a large bowl.
That’s pretty much it, it’s not far removed from Jell-O salads with other unhealthy crap added to them.
To be fair as someone from Louisiana… All of you should be banned from making food
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!
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.
