What do you think is an overrated food? (lemmy.world)

Lobster is so so so overrated. 75% of the weight is shell. You could get tiger or argentinian shrimp for the same price per pound if not cheaper and you get 3 times more edible meat by weight.

Pizza Hawaii.
Not because of the flavor,
but it should have been called Pizza Brazil.

Bubble tea.
MacDonalds foods.
Pizza hut Pizzas.

I think I might not be answering this question correctly.

I think it technically should have been called Canadian pizza but there's already a canadian pizza (pepperoni, mushroom, bacon). Coincidentally, my go to pizza order is half Hawaiian and half Canadian.

That sounds like a pretty good combo pizza!

I was hesitant to have Hawiian pizza the first time, but I instantly liked it. I soon changed it up though to get bacon instead of ham so it adds crunch and smokiness.

Korean fried chicken sauce is also good on pizza.

Ya I'm not a big fan of the ham version, I usually have it with pineapple and bacon crumble/sausage

Is korean fried chicken sauce like the buldak ramen sauce?

[–] anon6789@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Looking at the Buldak Original ingredients list, it looks like many of the same ingredients, but in reverse proportions.

Buldak has a lot of chicken flavoring/bullion to make the chicken flavor (dak=chicken) and a lot of pepper flake to make it hot (bul=fire) and then soy sauce and seasoning.

The fried chicken sauce doesn't have the chicken flavor since it's intended to go on actual fried chicken, and I don't make it super hot. It's a little more earthy and a little sweet.

I use a decent scoop of gochujang paste (lower heat level), a nice amount of minced garlic, a splash rice vinegar, a tiny blep sesame oil and some sesame seed, and then honey or brown sugar to taste, then soy sauce to get it to a nice dipping sauce consistency.

I don't measure it, I just make it for making fancy pizza, so I eyeball it in a ramekin and then drizzle as desired on pizza.

The thing is, it makes people think pineapples originate from Hawaii.

When in reality they come from under the sea. I watched a docuseries about it.
