Curious/fun poll.
A noodle soup comes to mind like pho.
Feel free to add suggestions and reasons why if you want.

    Variety is the spice of life , love me some ribs, but would probably get bored after a while.

    • Reggyscum on 15/05/2023 - 20:45

      I'm a rib lover too.. not long ago i had a 4 week streak where i ate slow cooked home ribs at least twice a week, 1 week was 4 times. By the 4th week it did start becoming a little boring.

      I'd probably get over it after two boxes. Back in highschool, could've had them for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

      Now, I feel like I'm actively dying eating the last few bite of one box.

      • Jimothy Wongingtons on 14/05/2023 - 23:30

        nah i can still smash 2 boxes easy, but yeah the body aint what it used to be for sure…

    Garlic bread is my favorite food. I could honestly eat it for every meal. Or just eat it all the time without even stopping.

    Seriously though, maybe pizza. You can make it savoury or sweet, healthy or unhealthy. Can even make keto fat head pizza if you’ve eaten too much garlic bread in the past and got fat…

    Suggested French Omelette

    I think I could eat a French omelette every day for the rest of my life. Just beaten eggs with salt and pepper, cooked in a pan for like 20 seconds with butter, and looks like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qXPhVYpQLPA and should be slightly gooey/runny inside after it's folded.

    You can spice it up with fillings like bacon, cheese, or add some herbs to the egg. I used to eat fried eggs every day but I like this omelette better. And it cooks quicker.

    • capslock janitor on 14/05/2023 - 10:31

      "Suggestion pending - waiting for moderation" huh

      • AustriaBargain on 14/05/2023 - 10:33

        Probably Francophobic poll policies. And I didn't submit it twice but it is there twice. Okay now it's there three times, I don't know what is going on. Scotty must have been sleepy when he programmed the poll function….

    • Member 0230 on 16/05/2023 - 16:04

      @AustriaBargain thanks for sharing.

      I love eggs, and this is amazing.

      I had a second go today - non-stick yesterday and stainless steel today - and getting better at it.

      Link for those interested in the writeup / webpage.

        Non stick is what Julia Child recommends. I think Julia Child recommends 2-3 eggs in an 8 inch pan with curves sides. I've been using a 20cm pan with three eggs but I probably could go with a pan a little bit bigger. Pan needs to be quite hot to cook it very quick, but not so hot that it browns the omelette at all. Shake the pan in a pulling motion towards yourself and to quicken cooking scrape at the middle of the omelette while doing that with the back of a fork to form curds. Some recipes call you to lift the omelette to have the uncooked egg run under it, or to just keep shaking it, I think it really depends on how much egg there is in the pan. And don't be scared of it being a little runny on top before folding, it will cook a little longer when you take it off and result in a creamy finish.

        Watch YouTube videos, they cook so quick that they can demonstrate it like three times in a minute.

    I always view paella as misleading.

    I like watching it made. I enjoy how it looks.

    But then I start eating it and it's just a shitload of rice with a little bit of topping.

    • ripesashimi on 14/05/2023 - 18:14

      The feeling is mutual. Paella in Spain itself was also dissapointing.

      • gimme on 14/05/2023 - 20:51

      The paellas I've had are super-flavourful with LOTS of yummy toppings (for me the more spanish chorizos the better) — I guess it depends who's making it for you!

  • Cheaplikethebird on 14/05/2023 - 10:49

    Yeah Pizza is the hack move for this thought exercise because the assumption is you can switch up the toppings. There should be a restriction on toppings in the fine print here.

    I vote pizza if the hack loophole is open, bolognese if not.

        Been home cooking my way through the taco Chronicles and its Cochinita Pibil all the way.. No cheese, sour cream or any of that American stuff. Just slow cooked pork in the most amazing flavours ever with some picked onions on home made tortillas. Chef kiss.

    Sandwiches are pretty versatile (assuming you can change flavours) so maybe that.

    • love2buy on 16/05/2023 - 08:26

    If pizza with any variation of toppings is allowed, I’ll go with sandwiches.
    Having to eat a sandwich everyday would be no hardship, the spectrum of fillings and toasting options are unlimited.
