MsKreed 1,435 Posted April 13 Since eliminating gluten, I no longer eat macaroni salad......but any ‘mayo based’ salad (macaroni, potato, egg salad, or even tuna salad) should have some crunch in it. Otherwise its just a mushy pudding texture. Like baby food. 🤢🤮 Never had carrots, but it would be worth trying. Celery and/or onions – absolutely necessary. But they must be raw/fresh. because the only thing worse than having an intentionally mushy texture is mushy ingredients that are supposed to be crisp. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ann 358 Posted April 13 I do like chopped dill pickles in my potato salad. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Linda Roorda 150 Posted April 28 I gotta admit... these posts are hilarious! I'll make a stab at my ideas of yum since I can't eat any of these items anymore - mustard only on hotdogs, no chili, no relish, no onions, definitely NO ketchup!! And NO mayo, gravy or anything else on french fries - just salt for the purist LOL! Syrup on breakfast sausage - absolutely not! But a big yes to homemade Dutch Balkenbrij covered with syrup like my mom-in-law used to make after a cow was butchered!! (It's like scrapple from the PA Dutch who are Deutsch, aka great German peoples, but NOT Dutch from Netherlands like me and my late hubby.) And yes, dark chocolate is the best! How I wish I could have some!! Grated carrots in salads, not small chunks. Miracle Whip? Nah! And how could I forget a favorite I long for - Vita pickled herring!! There's the Dutch in me - miss that sweet/sour raw pickled herring with onions! LOL! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beekeeper 13 Posted May 18 Funny. I grew up with no condiments on anything. Not sure why ketchup or mustard was never on the table to add to things. I still do not put anything on french fries, hamburgers, hot dogs...and don't like things added. Banana bread needs to be just bananas, no nuts. Same with cookies, unless of course chocolate chips are being added. Those are okay in anything baked... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you think Miracle Whip is better than Hellman's Mayonnaise? Do you think cats are superior to dogs? That chocolate is nasty? Let's hear it!

Chris 2,774 Posted July 4 This might be considered in-patriotic today, but I have to say that the Nathans Hot Dog eating contest just grosses me out. For one, soggy hot dug buns is just plain disgusting. But also, it feels to me like a celebration of gluttony. I know, I'm probably in the minority on this one. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MsKreed 1,435 Posted July 11 I think "Shark Week" is just dumb. There's probably about 2-3 hours of interesting, informative programming.....and 60+ hours of nonsense. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
