John Drake Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 (edited) Anybody seen Cheez Whiz in Thailand? I mean the kind in the can you can spray on top of a glass of wine. Oh, and Velveeta, too? Edited January 11 by John Drake 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even as a Brit from 't-North (Bolton) I never got into Marmite. Bovril, Vimto (a fruit drink and an anagram of vomit) and mushy peas, yes but Marmite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chili con queso is divinity. You can make it easily enough by melting down some velveeta mixed with a good salsa. Good salsa is also hard to find in Thailand. Primo salsa would be Pace Picante Sauce (hot). I've seen Old El Paso in Tops. At least it's "medium." Most other salsas are mild for some reason. Why mild salsa in Thailand of all places?

That's a good link. And he's right about the Ro-tel. And, yes, you can store velveeta at room temperature for ages.

moogradod Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 (edited) We are always striving for the best, the best hotels, the best food, the best wine etc. How about a contest for the worst (really existing) food ? There used to be an institution called "The not so terribly good club of great britain" and to be a member you had to demonstrate that you were exeptionally bad at something. They sometimes invited members to demonstrate their inabilities on stage. They soon had to close down because according to their own statues they were too successful. But we could make a list of the worst food, starting with a dish that let you vomit by the pure looks of it up to last place where you needed hospital care (Psychologist or Gastroenterologist) after yoyu had the pleasure to taste it. Cheeze wiz on wine is a strong contender in this list I suppose. And the breakfast beans etc...... Edited January 11 by moogradod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It got to the stage when I was in America that I would order a starter and dessert and miss out the main course. People really, really do not need to eat that much. I've never forgotten once walking behind three women of a certain size in Orlando, dreading that they might spontaneously explode and cover me in nastiness. But, fortunately, they turned into an all you can eat restaurant and I lived to tell the tale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My ex-wife was a terrible cook, who would boil them to death, then feed them to my infant son. It traumatized him for life. Or take the dish beloved by Americans, pork ribs. Delicious when the fat is cooked out of them, revolting when it is left in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
