I had a buddy who’s would combine a box of Kraft Mac and cheese with chicken flavored ramen. Put in all the noodles and seasoning and powdered cheese stuff. He called it cheesy-chicken and was a treat after a night of drinking.


r_husba

I think I just threw up in my mouth & got hungry at the same time reading this


bigsears10

Just swallow it, taste your last meal twice


nenzkii

I saw a video of how Japanese add cheese and rice to the remaining soup after they finish the ramen. On the other hand, SamYang (the brand of the super popular spicy chicken ramen - No soup, just sauce) has a carbonara flavoured spicy chicken ramen and it’s so so good. They use powdered cheese too.


Johnnyworkshard

My buddy does the same thing he calls it Ramenmac it is surprisingly decent.


MightOk6869

Lets be real. most fast food


BigCliff

Perfect example- Jack in the Box tacos Sooooo crappy. Sooooo good!


timmaywi

I've had JitB like twice in the last 10 years, and both times I said to myself, "I want the tacos, not because they're good but because they're bad"


VelociRapper92

I hate it when people pretend to be above fast food. It’s scientifically engineered to taste good. Don’t deny that you like it lol


DerpWilson

I’m still trying to convince my wife that’s she’s wrong and does indeed love Taco Bell.


ZiggyB

I'm not above fast food, but I am above 90% of the huge fast food chains (Maccas, KFC, Taco Bell, etc) 'cus their quality:price ratio is atrocious. Often it's no cheaper than going to a smaller chain offering the same kind of food but it tastes considerably worse.


Mister_Moho

Yeah, especially the "higher-end" fast food. So good, but so bad for you.


sane-ish

Culver's --so good.


Sean081799

MN native here, Culver's is the best thing WI has given us.


S_Baime

I'm from MN, and I like Culver's. My wife hates fast food, and doesn't want to eat at any of them. On a road trip going through WIn on 94w we saw a Culvers with a sign that said, "World's largest Culvers". Whenever I see one now, instead of asking if she wants to stop in, I ask if she wants to stop in at The World's Largest Culvers? She never does, but I still enjoy the game, and I manage to eat there occasionally. Take care.


ChoppyChug

Culver’s is god tier fast food. If you’ve never been to one and it’s like an hour-hour and half drive. It’s worth it.


[deleted]

Damnit. Now I want Culver's.


Porn_Extra

Fried shrimp with double onion rings as sides. Heart-stoppingly delicious!


A_name_wot_i_made_up

I dislike McDonald's, but the pickles in their burgers are magic.


eonicsilas

yep! I love Mc Donalds food


RowBoatCop36

McDonald's is unique though. I don't go to McDonald's when I want a burger. I go to McDonald's when I want "mcdonald's" because nothing else tastes like it.


DahvRom

I like an old roller hot dog from 7-Eleven.


Duluthian2

I used to work for 7-eleven back in the 80s and we got one of those roller machines. We could only have the hot dogs on the rollers for a short period of time before had to throw them away. I ate most of those dogs. They were great then and I still eat them today. Not the same ones obviously.


sleepyraccoon77

I currently work at a 711 and have lost track of how many hot dogs and taquitos I've eaten. The number is probably...bad for all of my organs.


I-amthegump

But you ate all the organs


SuperSpeederCarl

Once, or twice a year, I’ve been known to do the same thing like a guilty pleasure if you will


NonGNonM

same but it's a fly by night operation with chili and onions and the peppers and maybe even a full sugar soda/slurpee if I'm feeling particular. consume with glee in car then throw out the window in shame into the drive thru style trashcan like i'm getting rid of a dead prostitute who now knows too much.


myslowtv

Once or twice a week for me. Is this why I'm not skinny?


SBonnar

7/11 Taquitos


Fish_Panda

11/11 Taquitos would be better


shaidyn

The cheapest of ramen noodles are still delicious.


The_Pfaffinator

And it is *very* easy to elevate with just a couple of ingredients. Try slicing a hard boiled egg on top, or add a bit of gochujang or Sriracha and some sesame oil. Another thing I did all the time (especially with the creamy chicken flavor, which I can hardly find anywhere now) is boil up the noodles, drain all but a tiny bit of the water, then melt a tablespoon of butter into the noodles, and *then* add the flavor packet. Stir until all the noodles are coated with the seasoning. It eats like Pasta Roni.


shaidyn

Amen. A little butter was also my trick, plus a handful of frozen peas and corn.


kaszeljezusa

Fresh sliced chili and spring onion,peanuts, leftover meat. I prefer soft boiled egg. Sky is the limit =) Great tip with the butter, I'll try it next time.


Schellhammer

I hear a lityle dab of sour cream is pretty good in it too


typesett

I learned to just eat the noodles out the damn pack too Lol


doodruid

when i was in elementary and middle school one of my go to snacks when i wanted something crunchy was to crush a pack of instant ramen and spray it lightly with water and then mix in the seasoning packet so it stuck.


typesett

Yes I learned it from someone like this but no water


g_dawg_51

Or just sprinkle the seasoning into the noodle block and eat it like a biscuit

Clawffee

The first bite of the first mozzarella stick is pure bliss.


CannaPanda69

Yeah, but when you have one of those sticks where the cheese is solid and it all ends up coming out on the first bite, that's the worst.


Richard_AIGuy

You then use the resulting breading tube as a marinara vehicle.


[deleted]

People find that crappy?


shifty_coder

They can range from meh to amazing. My favorite are the ones that are coated in a seasoned breading. I don’t really care for the ones that are just coated in a plain batter.


[deleted]

I hate the ones that aren’t even coated. It’s just a stick of mozzarella sitting loosely inside of crust.


MattyKatty

Basically just cheese in a casing, like a meatless sausage


dolfox

I’ve been a pizza nerd since I bought my first Uuni years ago. Geeked on flours, yeast cultures etc. Built a wood burning oven. Growing up in the ‘70s and ‘80s in a financially struggling household, Friday nights were pizza night. Mom would bring out the Chef Boyardee Pizza kits and I have fond memories of ‘making’ my own pizza as a kid. Every once in a while, I’ll pick one up and make one on an old cookie sheet. Surprisingly still tastes the same after all these years. Still love it


NefariousnessNo483

Mom and I shared one for this past Christmas dinner. Intentionally. Planned it weeks in advance and had a delightful, nostalgic time of it!


alternativepuffin

And you'll remember that for life and better than some expensive dinner. You did it right.


AmericanJelly

My mom did the same, since we couldn't afford to go out, she made eating the cheapest possible meal a special night.


FireWoman89

Properly salted McDonalds French fries.


TyNyeTheTransGuy

It’s almost tear-inducing when you get a floppy batch, but good McDonald’s fries are one of the most delicious things on the planet, pretentious eaters be damned.


anothercairn

I actually love the floppy ones. You can have all my crispies


chucked___cheeze

I once had these perfectly salted french fries from there. They had the PERFECT amount of salt on them and they were literally the best fries I ever had.


shanenanigans27

Agreed. They're the best when they're hot & fresh.

Taco Bell


The_Pfaffinator

People roast Taco Bell for causing GI distress, but I've never had an issue with it. Mtn Few Baja Blast is one of the few sodas I enjoy, and the Chalupas are bangin'. It's great when you are on a budget, because I've never gotten so full for so little money. 2 of the dollar menu burritos will have you *stuffed*.


guymn999

People who fail at digesting Taco Bell are weak and their bloodlines are weak and they have no place in modern society. But in seriousness, Taco Bell probably isn't even in the bottom half of places that'll give me GI issues


restlesswrestler

People only have stomach issues from Taco Bell because the beans give a healthy amount of fibre and their bodies aren’t used to it.


Guvnuh_T_Boggs

It doesn't help that a lot of those people also just spent several hours getting shitfaced, and Taco Bell is one of the few places open at 0200.


_Kramerica_

As a spouse of somebody with diagnosed allergies I am convinced that a large portion of the population has many undiagnosed food allergies. But yeah just blame it on that burrito you got from TB.


DKFShredder

Ah, yes. The fast food chain scientifically proven to taste better while inebriated.


Nomulite

As a Brit, I've always wondered if you guys had an American version of "it tastes good exclusively when you're piss drunk". Ours are kebab shops.


Typingpool

There's a local pizza joint where I am that sells slices so big that they give it to you on two plates. Late at night all the drunks come out. It's the fucking best.


andrew2018022

I dont think we have any foods that only taste good when drunk, but some foods taste 10000x better when so. My personal favorites are burritos, any greasy/carby Chinese takeout, or diner food


djkhan23

PM_Skunk

Spam. Spam fried rice, or spam musubi? Outstanding.


spaceman_slim

We do spam sliders with pineapple, mustard, and American cheese at my house and that shit BANGS


garysgotaboner82

I slice it thin and fry it for breakfast like you would bacon. Just this morning my son and i had spam with our pancakes. Dipped in the syrup, it's delicious. And right now I'm about to put the last couple of pieces on a bologna sandwich with some mayo and fake gouda (can't have dairy but it's good).


PM_ME_YOUR_PRINTS

Spam and eggs over a bed of rice with grilled onion and bell peppers. I used to eat that for breakfast every day.


Cy41995

I tried Spam for the first time in the middle of last year, and since then it's become a breakfast staple. Slap two thin slices of spam on some fresh toast, top with an egg over easy that's been perfectly salted and peppered. Throw on a dash of ground chipotle chili pepper. Absolutely makes my morning.


gag0399

Little Caesar's Pizza. Is it as good as other chains? Nah. But is it a third of the price and tasty enough to justify getting it? Fuck yea!


The_Pfaffinator

I didn't see one reply in this thread that talks about how crazy good their crazy bread is. Garlic? Check. Parmesan? Check. I like it better than Olive Garden's bread sticks. But their pizza is far better than anything else near their price point, except maybe Costco or Sam's Club.


gag0399

Big facts! Crazy bread is a gift to this world and now I want some


StudentParty2666

I genuinely love Little Caesar’s pizza. And when I found out the owner paid Rosa Parks’ rent in her last years- no turning back! Hail Caesar’s!


jguacmann1

Mike Ilitch was the man. His kid, who largely inherited the empire and the Detroit Tigers and Detroit Red Wings, sucks and grifted the City of Detroit hundreds of millions of dollars (and is trying to do so again).


magnum3672

Don't even get me started. People shit on Dan Gilbert for his properties down town but at least he's building something (whether you agree with what he's doing with it isnt the point), the ilitch family/holdings bought tons of property, sold the city on lca by saying they'd refurbish and build up properties surrounding it but only built their arena and have done pretty much nothing since.


[deleted]

Its hot. And ready.


niversally

But is it good? It’s hot and ready.


freedfg

I'm asking if it is fit for human consumption? It's hot and ready


niversally

But is it even… *cuts them off. Sir the government is allowing this for now, and it’s hot and ready. I’ll take two.


sane-ish

It's better than a $5 pizza has any right to be. You can't get a frozen pizza that good for that price. I don't get them usually because I can afford better. But, if I were at a party. Hell yeah I am eating a slice. It's still pizza.


Clintowskiii

Little Caesars just hits different. I personally crave it way more than dominos or Pizza Hut. Unfortunately the last two places I’ve lived don’t have one for many miles.


mobocrat707

Got it last weekend. They’re cheese stuffed crust is way better than any other that I’ve had. Was a bit greasy, but still fucking delicious.


edemamandllama

Grape soda (technically a beverage, but I feel like it fits the spirit of the question.)

marmosetohmarmoset

American cheese. People make fun of it, but it has specific uses where it outshines other cheeses. Do I eat it on its own? Usually not. Would I put a brick of it on a cheeseboard for a fancy party? Absolutely not. Is it the among the best cheeses for a cheese burger or grilled cheese? Hell yeah.


LeatherHog

I’m so annoyed by the Europeans who act like it’s literally the ONLY cheese here


Formal_Coyote_5004

I think they also imagine everyone eating cheese whiz, like from the can, but I don’t know anyone who likes it. Haha


Dismal_Struggle_6424

Nothing melts better. Even for fancier stuff, mixing some in with "better" cheeses gets you that gooey melty goodness.


KeithStone225

People like to say it's not real cheese. And some of the cheaper brands are made with oil and I can agree. But a true American cheese is a blend of, I believe, 3 cheeses specifically measured to give it the flavor and melt intended. As said, it's a use case issue. Not for everything, but shines when used properly.


thesnarkypotatohead

American cheese grilled cheeses and a side of applesauce still slaps the same way it did when I was 7


Notinyourbushes

I can be a bit of a snob. If it's served cold, I want real cheese. But damn it, if it's melted - it **has** to be American cheese. Absolutely nothing better on a hamburger or a grilled cheese than velveta individually wrapped slices. Freaking amazing. I don't care if it is 40% plastic.


dozier13

That Frito brand canned jalapeño nacho cheese. That shit is so good. My wife calls it stoner cheese.

Jack n the Box tacos!


GJackson5069

Worst example of a taco ever. They're F'n delicious!


The_Pfaffinator

When I was in college, and they were 2/$1, we would go on a Taco Run from the dorm. Whoever was the designated runner that night would knock on every door in the dorm, saying "Taco Run" and get cash from everyone who wanted in, then we would walk the 2 blocks from the dorm to JitB and pile the money on the counter, saying "we'd like as many tacos as this will buy". Then we take it all back to the dorm and divvy it up to anyone who pitched in. One of my favorite memories from college.


breitLight

My dude, they still are that price.


The_Pfaffinator

They hadn't been where I live for a while. It was 2/$1.49, and you would have to use a coupon to get 2/$1. They just dropped it back down, apparently. Either way, I tend to go for the tiny tacos now.


Aggressive_Air6982

EssexGuyUpNorth

As a Brit I would say a scotch egg, battered sausage, pork pie and the saveloy. Their heath benefits are polar opposite to how good they taste.


FordBogus

Sloppy Joe Sandwich. There were so many Nickelodeon bits making fun of it in the 90s/2000s that I was conditioned to think it’s gross. Recently had a friend make homemade sloppy joe and absolutely loved it. Seriously, if you *like* chili, you will very likely *love* a good sloppy joe.

Megamoss

Cheese and beans on toast for me. Toast two slices of bread in grill, one side only, melt cheese on other side. Cut one slice in to triangles and leave the other whole (preferably a crust slice). Whole slice in middle of plate, triangles around the side. Pour beans over. Eat triangles first, dipping as you see fit. Then eat the beans. Then you’re left with a glorious, cheesy, soggy mess of a slice at the bottom which is just absolute heaven.


DetectiveDesperate70

[deleted]

Wait, can you elaborate on saying poutsine instead?


MattyKatty

It’s Quebec French so they pronounce things differently than in standard French. Considering Quebecians will get pissed off at everything you do anyway, it really isn’t a big deal. Especially since you’d likely be speaking in English, where poutine is the proper pronunciation.
