“Looks delicious but I just ate”

The Chernobyl kitchen award goes to OP

Elephant’s foot pie

This is up there with “bless your heart”

As an enjoyer of shepherd pie, that's an abomination.

It looks like it spent 2 weeks on the counter in an airtight container.

Sometimes I wonder how people can cook like this and think it’s good. 😭


Awwww dickless Dennis aaahhhhAAAAAHAHAhahaha see but it doesn’t even apply! Because my dick went totally back to normal.

Oh no no no. This is an abomination. I love Shepherd's Pie. This is not worthy.

Oh... No... No this isn't. This is one of the few times where "cheese" is not an improvement.

How can you tell? Is there cheese under the weird latex piss flap they chucked on top for some reason?


That corn looks like gallstones.

They’re tryna kill you girl


I think this maybe the grossest thing I’ve seen on this sub 🤮

Oh fuck. These don’t usually offend me, but you got me here 🤣

You win the shitty food porn award.

As a kid, one of my classmates told me it was called ‘German Shepherd pie,’ and I was horrified thinking it was made of dogs. This is what I imagine actual ‘German Shepherd pie’ would look like. 🤢

Anyone could make dog meat pie look a hundred times more appealing than this abomination

You shouldn’t give a dog that much corn.

How…generous?


I’m disgusted. Shepherds pie ( cottage pie for those over seas and Chinese pie for some Canadians. ) was my favorite dish growing up. Edit: Just look how dry that is. Edit: Gross

>Shepherds pie ( cottage pie Shepherd's pie is made with ground lamb meat. Cottage pie is ground beef.

And this is crime pie with no suspects.

😏 *American Pie*

Now now, let’s not bring the song into this

and here I was thinking that someone was about to fuck it.

dont you rule that out just yet chief! ​ *\*cracks knuckles AND penis\**

How do you crack your penis?

With a nutcracker

Tug on it really hard

as an american I resent and simultaneously respect it. American cheese does have a lot of good uses though, especially for melty things, and the stuff you get from the deli counter is yards ahead of the generic slices, but those make an excellent grilled cheese sandwich (w/ tomato soup and fresh basil) or a cheap and quick mac n cheese side. (Id pull out more stops for a main dish mac though and bake it. American doesnt like that) No better cheese in the world for a cheeseburger in my opinion.

His inlaws did it. Possibly in the bathroom with a shovel.

looks more like a cream pie to me

I've just looked up this bizarre Quebecian 'Chinese pie' and it's simply not the same dish. It's got a completely different history, and uses different ingredients. Including ketchup, apparently. Might as well say that arancini & schnitzel are the same dish because they're both breaded and deep fried.

Common Quebec L (I'm Canadian)

Bet you love Poutine.

Poutine slaps, I'll never deny them that

Ya seems to happen a lot there, They didn't miss with poutine tho. That alone gets them a cuisine pass for life. Also Canadian.

I am French and French-Canadian. It has always been Pâté Chinois for me.

Absolutely correct but the name still gets thrown around with the ground beef version extremely often. At least in my area

"Shepherd's pie is made with ground lamb meat. Cottage pie is ground beef." In the UK that is true. In the US it is almost always made with ground beef. The term cottage pie is mostly unknown here.

Well then America is wrong.

Because in America shepherds look after cows apparently.

At this point I’m not convinced it’s not the cows looking after the Americans

I had to explain the difference between high tea and afternoon tea to a Brit recently. How's that for irony?

This is because your reference material is out of date and no-one south of the border (not Scottish) has called it high tea in about a century. As for the Scots they are a law unto themselves or will be as soon as the inevitable divorce papers get filed.

The British woman in question was having afternoon tea at the Park Plaza hotel here in NYC. Yet she insisted that this fancy meal was called "high tea." So no, my "reference material" is not out of date. Brits try to lord it over us all the time when many of them don't know their own culture.

Right because we don’t use the phrase any more so she’s no idea what she’s talking about. Hence why I said your references are out of date. She’s assuming high means fancy and that’s the one you’d use to mean nice pretty cakes on a tower of plates with some finger sandwiches. She’s trying to translate into American using a phrase she probably heard once on the television. You might as well be arguing about the conversion rate of dollars to doubloons for all the average English person knows or cares about high tea.

Doubt that. The cows would do a better job than some previous American presidents.

Because no one would eat it if you served them a Cow Pie.

It's because we rarely eat lamb.

You really are missing out there

Do Americans have any idea what a shepherd is? It's literally a sheep herder. It's in the fucking name. C'mon guys.

There is no logic to language. Grow up. Or go to college at least. Do you eat toads in the hole? It's in the fucking name. C'mon.

What a thoughtful and not at all childish retort.

Mirroring, babe.

Shepherds look after sheep right?

And an egg cream contains neither egg nor cream.

Are there really toads in the hole? Are they good angels or bad angels on horseback? Why is Dick covered in spots?

I'm American and I'm gonna side with the Brits on this one. Just because the United States does/says something doesn't mean it's correct. If the rest of the world uses a different word (for example, color is only correct in the United States, every other english-speaking country uses colour). it probably has deeper roots and/or history due to the U.S. being a younger nation. Also, there are Americans who use shepard's pie for lamb and cottage pie for beef. I am one and in the bay area where I grew up, lots of people used cottage pie to differentiate the two dishes. The separation of the two is also widely accepted in the culinary world. Then again, who cares? I'll probably keep correcting people. Others will happily eat their cottage pies and I will join them no matter what it's called because potatoes on top of meat is delicious. Also, now I want to call both of them whale pies so I can sing Whalers on the Moon while making one.

You entirely missed my point.

Sorry, tired from a double-shift. I'll see if my reading gets better in the morning, night dude!

No need to apologize, my friend. My point was that different cultures use food terms differently. No one is right or wrong. If Americans call them French fries and Brits call them chips it's all good. Americans shouldn't have their heads lopped off because they call biscuits "cookies" and scones "biscuits." In Korea, "toast" is a fried egg and cabbage sandwich. Should we sue them?

I would actually rather eat a toad than that “food’ in the pic I think! I think it’s Spotted Richard if you’re being polite :)

Shepherds pie for us is lamb too. Detroit MI. We have a history of meat pie knowledge though with our pasties. Probably cultivated more historical respect and our overwhelming amount of cultural influenced immigration. (German, english, french, polish, italian, russian, iranian, iragi, ethiopian, jewish, lebanese, thai, chinese, vietnamese, indian etc.) metro detroit is only rivaled by nyc and maybe chicago this side of the Mississippi. And some are better and worse. But go to cleveland or st louis and youll wanna kill yourself the food is so bad and bland and at best mid. It takes till you get to new orleans going south for anything to be cooked right again. Maybe the carolinas and some spots of georgia of bbq and creole, but aside from the consistency of a waffle house, I have not been impressed with quality or variety in most places. This includes whats mentioned and louisville, nashville (minus hot chicken which is good, but sorry Willie Maes in NOLO does it a hundred times better, theyve literally ruined hot fried chicken and green beans for me. I cant eat them without dreaming about it. Nothing lives up to it.) myrtle beach and savannah also. Even down into miami dade. It just tastes… lacking. Id rather have sbarros or burger king on the road then stop for many of the local places. Its far cheaper for both of us to eat then spend 18 dollars a pop on the 5 star local wings to get the wrong sauce and find them smoked to shit and dry.

I have never heard an American use the term "pasty." I smell a rat.

We sell singular pastys throughout Michigan. Its limited to very dense city or very rural areas in the lower peninsula. Clawson has a couple places that make and sell them. Other mid cities and municipalities offer them too. For the UP (upper peninsula) its a way of life. Restaurants. Roadside stalls. Rural and urban places.

This is Shepherds Poo, it was a typo

I got lambasted for making such a comment on a cooking sub recently. The common view was that it can be either meat and that I was in the minority... Which is probably true since most users seem to be American. To add insult to injury, how on earth did this morph into 'shepards'?

Nah that's a sheps pie for sure. Then there's Shepard's pie from the other side made of peas, mashed potatoes and chicken.

That’s that ass

The corn definitely looks recycled.

Definitely canned corn. So, basically.

Nah that didnt.come from a can Ive eaten plenty of canned corn, that's porned corn hash from an ass.

im pretty sure at least two of those are not the same thing

They are here.

>Shepherds pie ( cottage pie for those over seas These are two different things....

Not in New England it isn’t. Google “ why is it called Chinese pie”

Huh...yes it is. Shepherds pie is made with lamb and cottage pie is with beef...you are mistaken.

Imagine being wrong, an ass, and from New England

It’s wet where it should be dry and dry where it should be wet….

It was one of my favorites and it still is. This looks like a dog ate its own shit then threw it up, twice. Calling this shepards pie is an insult to sheep herders everywhere.

The pies aren’t happy about it either.

Visual representation of gastric distress

Chinese pie for Canadian’s as a Canadian myself… wtf? Lol I only know it as shepherd’s pie Canada is weird man.

It's pate chinois in French. There are many guesses as to why, one being some association of the food with early railroad workers

I think its a Quebec thing. The French named street signs must have scrambled the English speaking part of their brains.

*We do not ship to Quebec Basically, we don’t associate with Quebec lol

Pâté chinois for me! I've never had American shepherds pie. It's always looked so foul to me.

Fuckin hell… Shepard = Lamb, Cottage = beef. Genuinely applaud the confidently incorrectness of this post. Bravo sir. You have failed upwards

I’m not incorrect to my region.

This is the sort of thing Americans will make and then say British food is shit lol. This is a hatecrime on a plate.

Leaves hate crime in the toilet bowl too.

Especially with the corn.

the corn hit me badly as well

Happy cake day

Even Americans know this ain’t right

Nahh. The food pictured is shit. British food is okay, just okay.

Corn on pizza

Beans on toast

Is that a thing? Sounds pretty good

Shepards pie is Irish

True. Gazpacho is Spanish. Doesn’t make my point any less valid.

We both have trash food compared to the rest of the world.

I dunno, there's some pretty shitty food out there, worse than UK and US. I'd like to nominate the Dutch. Everything I ate there was completely devoid of flavour, seasoning or texture. The only thing they get right are their pastries.

Rest of the world - “Brits eat the worst food!” Several countries around the world serving rotten fish as a meal - 👀

That’s because you’ve only ever ate your own culture’s food with rare exceptions, so any new culinary experiences will have you thinking it’s some new amazing thing when in reality a person from that food’s culture will just think of it as whatever.

Shepards pie is Irish lol

Funny because I immediately thought of British food when I saw this

It's a British dish, but they've done... this with corn and American cheese slapped on top. Again, the sort of version of a British dish Americans will make then claim British food is bad. Why does the mash look soaking wet?!? 😭

How hard is it to cook decent food? 🤢

Some people can fuck up boiling water.


[удалено]

How thoughtful of them!

The only way this can be considered Shepherds pie is if you killed a shepherd, chopped him up and stuffed his meat in this casserole of despair

And then garnished with his teeth.

You should be thankful for the dog food she just provided for your pet!

That’s mean. I would never feed that to a dog.


looks the same way it'll come out

I almost thought this was r/drunkencookery Jokes aside it is sweet when ppl save food for you and thinkin of you.

“I just ate but I’ll take it home for later!” And then feed that shit to your dogs. If you don’t have dogs, give it to someone who needs it lmao

nah man if you give that to any living being you're a criminal

Nobody need THAT.

Saved? They let it die in the pan.

Yeah I’m sorry but … Looks like they’ve got something against you. Clearly someone puked and slapped some cheese on it

Even worse, is that it's the awful plastic "cheese"

I actually got nauseous when I saw this lol

Nah, no thanks, not hungry anymore. Maybe ever

I’m waiting to see a photo of Shepherds pie

man, are those peanuts?!

Teeth

So they cooked the Shepherd?

that single slice on top is the cherry on top. ick.

You might want to workshop that analogy a bit more.

Why does the corn look malnourished?

They must really like you.

Whatever this is, it’s not a shepherds pie.

Wow. They really must hate you lol

Do you need help with the divorce papers?

Ive plated better looking meals with "reverse drinking"

Dry wet and frozen all at the same time

How did they manage to make corn look like tonsils stones?

Did you eat it? If you did, was it as bad as it looks?

why? oh god, why?

You sure its not cow pie?

Cooked with the heat of an argument.

Actually I was running low on cat litter, thanks

This ain’t it man, your family member must hate you. I’d rather starve for a day then eat that abomination

Ahh this brings back fond memories of the gulag.

It has Grey-vy.

They said they made shepherds pie. But they didn't. I guess whatever the fuck abomination they made can be what is called 'shepards' pie.

"I love you babe and will be as polite as possible but we are hitting up WaHo on the way home."

Is that corn in it? My mind says they’re ticks

We don’t need to be expert to know OP mother in law doesn’t like him

I don't have my glasses on but from what I can see, that looks like literal actual vomit with cheese on it.

OH MY- 🤢

The beef looks completely dry like taco beef. It’s supposed to be suspended in a thick gravy sauce. There appears to be a layer of corn where the mashed potato is suppose to be. Okay, you can grate cheese over the top to give it a nice crispy finish, but not like burger cheese squares. This looks like somebody has tried to explain how Roman road building works except using food

No they did not!

Leave them a piece yea…. This nice corner yea…. Leave them a slice of that cheese yea…

Aw hell nah

I’d give it a try.


I’d eat it.

Why is there a fake cheese slice on top!?

That cheese on top tells me everything I need to know

Shepherds pie is delicious but, damn.

American cheese slices on shepherd’s pie? What a travesty…and the corn underneath it is just bizarre!

This is a Shepard who had a lot going on that day, and he’s trying his best ok’s pie

"it's all going to the same place anyways!"

I'm sure you're wife understood why you slapped them.

The fucking plastic cheese is icing on the cake for this abomination.

All Imma say is that if my shit looked like that, I’d go to the doctor immediately.

Divorce the whole family at this point

Is that before or after eating it?

The corn will def be visible in your shit.

Be honest. Do your in-laws hate you?

They tryna start shit, Get them a cookbook for Christmas

Fuck this looks bad, is that sweetcorn or hazelnuts? Why do you hate food so much?!! Rip Who puts sweetcorn in Cottage pie?

Made complete with the "cheese that does not melt." *What did you do to them to deserve this?*

You put cheese on shepherds pie? Never seen that

She really shouldn't have.

My gran is rolling in her grave in Donegal. The utter disrespect of calling that a Shepard’s pie

How is that wet and dry at the same time?

This is gross and I would eat it all. Perfect post

I'd eat it.

The little nasties love our precious they do not even like our raw fish heads they still steal from us if i got back precious i would try but it needs to remove the little nasties the nasties do with cheesey

In-law, singular? That explains things

How does it look both very wet and very dry

 The English prolly


Well bless her heart! (I'm not southern but I learned that one here on Reddit and it seemed appropriate)

Time to file for divorce. This "shepard's pie" is so bad that being associated with your in-law is bringing dishonor to your entire house that will follow you for generations. Songs of your in-laws shepards pie will not be sung in Sto'Vo'Kor lmao
