WHY

[xp_darcy]

Please Southern Living, tell us who hurt you and why you decided to spread that hurt to the world?

This is absolutely food horror.

I do not understand is this a savoury aspic? Is the lime jell-o dip for the shrimp?

[xp_darcy]

It's "people back then had gross ideas about food, please do not." I can't decide which part is the most disgusting to me, or if it's just the unholy combination.

[xp_tarot]

No there is gross and there is confusing and then there is this. The plastic cheese slices are gross, kombucha is confusing, this is horrid.

[xp_cypher]

...it hurt itself in its confusion!

[xp_darcy]

Can your nanites kill it

[xp_cypher]

Nuke it from orbit.

It's the only way to be sure.

[xp_darcy]

Absolutely not, that's how you end up with sentient cottage cheese jello salad abominations.

[xp_banshee]

Well, might've been less chunky if she'd blended the cottage cheese a bit. The one from the picture didn't seem to have those... overall, really unappetizing.

[xp_darcy]

cottage cheese texture is... 🤢

[xp_banshee]

I don't know, I don't mind it so much. Started eating it with my grandda ages ago. It's not bad, if you mix up what you put in it - savoury or sweet. Grandda likes his with honey and a bit of fruit, but I've found it's tastiest with something like tomatoes and basil.

[xp_darcy]

I can tolerate cottage cheese if it's mixed with ricotta and shoved into baked pasta like ziti or shells or lasagna. But not as it is.

[xp_banshee]

That's fair, it's not for everyone. But now I'm craving some of those massive stuffed shells with a spicy marinara sauce and a nice salad full of radishes and carrots.

[xp_darcy]

I have a good recipe. I'll make a few pans for the mansion Sunday if you'll do the salad. Mm, bread too. Someone else can bring wine.

[xp_banshee]

Excellent! I'll bring all the salad things and I can take care of the bread as well, given I've a whole day for the lot of it to rise and bake off. Not it for wine, though.

[xp_darcy]

Anyone that wants to join us can figure out beverages and desserts. :D

[xp_banshee]

Yes, perfect.

Do you mind sharing the main kitchen on Sunday for the baking?

[xp_darcy]

Of course not

[xp_tarot]

I can do wine. I am very very good at wine. If I do not have to cook, I will bring you all the wine you need.

[xp_banshee]

Bless you, you're a delight.

[xp_darcy]

Excellent

[xp_bruiser]

I'd try it.

[xp_darcy]

I question your tastebuds, but as long as I don't have to see it.

[xp_bruiser]

I probably wouldn't like it but I'd try it! Never know.

[xp_daredevil]

sounds delicious

[xp_darcy]

I thought you had enhanced senses

[xp_daredevil]

I do!

[xp_darcy]

...And they're telling you that lime jello, cottage cheese, horseradish, and shrimp mixed together sounds delicious?

I think you need to visit the medlab.

[xp_daredevil]

the sarcasm did not translate well

[xp_darcy]

Oh. No, not at all. I was deeply concerned.

[xp_daredevil]

I promise, I am not a pod person.

[xp_darcy]

Thank goodness, pod people just aren't as fun to play with.

[xp_daredevil]

they're all pod, no person
