Have you ever made a meal you'd be embarrassed to show a friend?

That's the nachos I'm eating right now lol

I was a vegetarian for about a decade when I was younger, and I made a lot of dhals and lentil and legume curries. A lot of the food I ate was outstandingly tasty but looked like baby shit lol

I'm sure I could make Italians embarrassed with my rice cooker risotto. Me embarrassed, no way. It was good.

It should be more liquidy and less clumpy.

Lots of pasta in mushroom soup.

Nachos sounds like a winner though!

Always. Every single day.

My goal is to host a dinner party and serve three courses. Then I'll be able to die happily.

Butter sketti. Spaghetti (or favourite pasta) cooked, add a bit of butter and salt - it's my comfort food.

It can be elevated by turning it into Aglio E Olio.

Yum. This was a common comfort meal in my childhood! Add some cheese too in my case

I put cheese in packet Thai soup

Negative. I gladly share my abominations
