In before people try to quote the stupid cube rule of food. That is one set of opinions that people try to claim as objective truth. The cube rule is not fact, it is opinion backed up by a poorly constructed model. By all conventional measures, a hotdog is a sandwich.
We are the Cube Rule. Lower your shields and surrender your ships. We will add your food's biological and technological distinctiveness to our own. Your food categories will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile.
But is cereal soup?
That's a tough one. Spaghetti-O's fall in the same category
I mean It’s just Cheerios in tomato juice
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
That’s almost as disgusting as real Spaghetti-Os.
All food is soup (which is just a salad with a lot of dressing).
This is amazing. I love pedantic food arguments.
The author does not understand how ingredients work, or why you wouldn't microwave a salad.
Never would have thought of cereal as salad, but he makes a good point.
Is cheesecake pie?
Yyyyyyyuuuuhhhhyyes?
It’s a chowder unless you used too much milk.
Say it roight, Frenchy!
Cereal is over-dressed salad. That way I eat salad almost every day.
It is a casserole.
My personal favourite ...
Mashed Potatoes is Irish Guacamole
Nah, there's no cilantro.
Irish guacamole is spiced with salt ..... and sometimes pepper for the adventurous type
Potatos are the starch (like rice and beans). Gravy is the mole.
Beef Wellington is just a bland imperial burrito.
You've never had a good wellington. They're fucking incredible done right.
I meant bland as an antonym for spicy, not a synonym for bad.
Lasagna is cake.
I have identified a problem.
According to cube rule, an entire pumpkin pie is a quiche, while a serving of pumpkin pie is toast.
This means that something like "pumpkin pie" cannot be classified without specifying "whole" or "single serving." I would posit that foods should always be identified by their single serving unit, but I don't see that sorted here.
An addendum is required.
Try modulating the phase coil inverters to match the frequency of pumpkin pie.
ketchup is a fruit smoothie
Sangria is fruit salad.
It's a pasta sandwich.
Wouldn't lasagna be a macaroni cake since the dough is referred to as macaroni noodle dough?
I have never heard pasta dough referred to as macaroni noodle dough...
If you look at the various pastas in the store they are mostly labeled macaroni product, from elbow macaroni, to rigatoni, to linguine, and shells. Spaghetti, and Lasagna aren't labeled macaroni products, but are made from the same pasta dough.
Your country is fat and uses macaroni as a reference point for pasta.
Its not even a question, everyone knows hotdogs are a type of taco

It's sandwiches all the way down
Yes. I told my friend that I would get us a chocolate lasagna and enjoy it and she talked all kinds of shit. I brought a layered cake and she was so mad haha
Going with no, at least if you require the “pasta” to be the same thing for both, ingredients wise.
Please notice how the spaghetti have no egg (uovo) in the ingredients, as opposed to the lasagna.
You know that both of them have "with eggs" and "no eggs" varieties, right?
You can also make a cake without eggs.
I will unfriend and block you, but it’s possible.
If you are talking about Lasagne - the pasta type and not the finished product, you would be right in saying you can find it both with eggs and without, by the article it says it is a north/south thing in Italy. But honestly you can find thousands of variations of them even moving just a few dozens kilometer.
On the contrary to be spaghetti and not something else they need to be - to directly quote - "a special pasta format made exclusively from durum wheat semolina and water, with a long, thin shape and round cross section."
I'm not sure if it is the same outside of Italy. But at the end just do what makes you happy.
Fair, but neither is the regular kind. Generally speaking, lasagna, tagliatelle: eggs. Spaghetti, fusilli, penne and so on: no eggs.
Edit: actually, might be worth pointing out that this is in Italy. It’s true that recipes can change wildly in different countries…
Wife says yeah

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.
Fun will now commence.
