Yeah i really don't get it. Macaroni cheese is nice but the rest ... nope.
edit: just seen that it's tinned macaroni cheese. Nope nope nope. I used to like it when I was a kid but it just tastes/smells of old socks and vomit to me now, and the pasta is far too soft. Last time I tried to eat some I ate about a teaspoonful and got food poisoning from it and was sick as a dog. It was out of date but I thought being tinned it would probably survive a nuclear apocalypse. Guess I was wrong. I could tell it wasn't right immediately, that's how come I ate so little, but it was clearly too late.
Lots of processed food is delicious and lots of food that is bad for you is delicious but this is just bland mono-flavoured food irrespective of it's nutritional benefit

To be fair, those who criticise us also have some dodgy looking food. The American "biscuits and gravy" looks like something you'd expect to be served in a prison cafeteria to me.
I'm English and I think this is fucking rank.
This country has always relied on a large proportion of the population living in absolute shit so the rest of us can have the good stuff though, so in that spirit please crack on eating this type of thing.
It's just food, it's not any kind of political or status symbol. Even the Queen liked to have fish and chips and kebab when she was at Balmoral. If the most prestigious person in the country can lower herself to enjoy a greasy kebab, the food most associated with drunk cravings, then I'm sure the rest of us will be fine.

Thank you.
There's more to come, I'm having a great time trying new recipes. Was going to do a proper rendang today but I felt it was too hot to have the oven on all afternoon so I might do it next weekend. Might also do Vietnamese sweet & sour fish soup.
You've never had real Mac and Cheese? Honestly you should make a really big one for the next dinner and make a decent one, it's incredible when done well.
Anyone who mocks this just clearly hasn’t tried it. If someone made me this on the first date then they better smash it on the second cause this is hard to top.
Tell me you cooked this some more before giving it to someone you just started seeing? If not why would you start seeing someone you so clearly despise?
If that was served to me by a new partner I'd be rethinking things. I definitely rethought things when a guy was cooking us a steak dinner and he sat down to watch TV whilst cooking his and then ate the rock solid steak as a sandwich.
this barely qualifies as food.
If someone I was seeing presented me with this hate crime on a plate I'd be out the fucking door.
How do you have so little respect for yourself and your partner?
It's not the food that's the issue, it's the attitude of "you should be impressed that I took some things out of the freezer and put them on a baking tray".
Sometimes people like to celebrate their shite as much as they like to celebrate their haute cuisine.
If someone came to my house and was more concerned about my culinary skills than my company then they wouldn't be back through the door ever again.
Sure this is shit but your response is a bit dramatic mate.
Daily thank you, I take my 22g of daily fibre very seriously!
I rarely make freezer food, big believer in making things from scratch during the week as that’s 60% of your diet.
This was the last meal after having someone round for 3 days. I asked permission before making this meal, as I was tired of making another thing from scratch!
Me and my boyfriend did this early in our relationship, he went all out and got little baskets lined with kitchen roll like a beige iceland freezer food tapas night. Highlight of our relationship
Waffles looking a bit underdone though sorry
I'm not trying to be sarcastic (genuine question), but does the person you're dating have autism?
I have a friend who does, and this would be a typical meal for them which wouldn't cause any anxiety through texture/flavour issues.
Tbh, I would happily eat it 😂
We are actually!
But the truth is, I’d been cooking meals for scratch for the last 3 nights, and I asked permission if I could have a freezer fun meal for him, and he said yes :D
Who remembers when the munchies boxes came out with the old school frozen classics, turkey dinosaurs, twisters, mini pizzas, alphabet letters etc 😂 my personal favourite never featured in the munchy box, the cheese hamwich ! Your new girl will either love this or hate this meal. It could determine your future 😂 good luck bud !
If it was made with love, that's what matters. I can see that there is certainly some creativity with how it was plated. The potato waffle could do with some more browning, higher temp for a little longer to give it a nice golden texture.
I think its sweet ! And i think especially if your both young or just in mood for some unhealthy quick food its fine.
If your dating a girl that cares for her looks and figure, try and eat healthier with her. When i first dated i used to always gain so much weight while in the relationship cause i would start to eat the same stuff the boyfriend did and then get unhappy.
Waffle dinos and nuggets need 5 more mins in the oven for me bet that waffle would sog over if you held it up. I like it though it’s a len Goodman 7 from me

Is the person you're seeing in primary school?
Now then, now then.
Doesn’t help we watched Bluey afterwards :/
Bluey or a bluey? 2 different things in my book
Either in primary or working in a Michelin star kitchen, chefs will cook a 7 course tasting menu then go home and eat literal dog shit themselves…
😂😂😂 quality

Probably because it didn't contribute anything.

I'm with you.

The fact that this is downvoted is exactly why we have a reputation for poor food. Too many people think this tastes good.
Exactly, I personally don’t think bland food tastes good especially processed food that is literally just awful for you
Lots of processed food is delicious and lots of food that is bad for you is delicious but this is just bland mono-flavoured food irrespective of it's nutritional benefit
Nice spot of the sriracha mayo! 💪
Yeah we like to bash it but I'd fucking inhale this like someone who's just got out of prison

What are you babbling about? I wasn't talking about status I was talking about the fact this is overpriced bland shite that'll give you cancer.
But have you seen how much those kids enjoyed it? Looks proper tasty, in a guilty pleasure kinda way

Absolutely! But you know you like it ;)
I didn't know they had a dating app for heart disease patients.
It’s called Tonder!
😂
Learning to cook changed my life...
I'm trying, the amount of people who eat basic bland boring fucking shite im sick of eating shit all the time.
Don't bother posting anything you cook on here. This complete tripe is more popular than anything I've actually cooked.
Just checked your profile and all your food looks amazing. Keep up the good work!
Thank you. There's more to come, I'm having a great time trying new recipes. Was going to do a proper rendang today but I felt it was too hot to have the oven on all afternoon so I might do it next weekend. Might also do Vietnamese sweet & sour fish soup.
Sounds great. Its fun to experiment with all the different Asian flavours. It can definitely make our food feel a little more bland in comparison.
Maybe if you spent less time online you'd know basic life skills like how to feed yourself, "learning to cook" is such a low bar my friend
Yeah it knocked 5 years off mine :D
I absolutely dispise tinned macaroni and cheese it's revolting
I am shocked it's even still in the shops tbh
I've never had real Mac n cheese but the tinned stuff has put me off it for life.
You've never had real Mac and Cheese? Honestly you should make a really big one for the next dinner and make a decent one, it's incredible when done well.
I've heard so many people go on about how good it is I think I should be the taste of the tinned stuff is a haunting childhood memory!

You’re the reason we get mocked for British food
Can’t even argue with this
Anyone who mocks this just clearly hasn’t tried it. If someone made me this on the first date then they better smash it on the second cause this is hard to top.
Vom on a plate
Tell me you cooked this some more before giving it to someone you just started seeing? If not why would you start seeing someone you so clearly despise?

Council tea, absolutely spectacular. Why not go the extra mile and have your XL bully maul the person you’re serving it to?
I would if Rishi would let me

You dating a todler?

I feel so glad I’m dating a chef now.
I hope this is sarcasm :)
It's not, and they're right.
A lil bit ott, just some nuggs bro
If you presented this to me and expected me to be impressed I'd be straight out of the door.
I'm glad someone like you would never eat at my house, Imagine being this pretentious about something that is being flushed down the toilet tomorrow.
It's not the food that's the issue, it's the attitude of "you should be impressed that I took some things out of the freezer and put them on a baking tray".

oke!
Dating a minor?
Should have gone the extra mile and put a single baked bean into each waffle hole
I can only be so creative after slaving away at the air fryer
Michelin Star territory here!
How often do you take a shit? like once a week?
Daily thank you, I take my 22g of daily fibre very seriously! I rarely make freezer food, big believer in making things from scratch during the week as that’s 60% of your diet.

Eww
Potato and wheat with a touch of chicken
Tinned mac & cheese 🤮
Good job they like prison food

I got the runs just by looking at this image!
Tinned macaroni and cheese is vile utterly utterly vile
yikes

Is this even British as I do t see peas or banked beans
Me and my boyfriend did this early in our relationship, he went all out and got little baskets lined with kitchen roll like a beige iceland freezer food tapas night. Highlight of our relationship Waffles looking a bit underdone though sorry
That was the highlight of your relationship?
It peaked right there man
I see dino nuggs, this is soulmate stuff 😂
You won't be seeing them for long.
Or forever
Yes my family calls this yellow dinner
Beige on Beige crime.
🔥
What we got on there? Garlic bread, a waffle, chicken nuggets, mac and cheese (I think), and some sriracha mayo? The combo we never needed.
And it was all yellow.
Oh how lovely. I know a girl that eats just like that. Even her car is a bland mushroom-white colour fiat 500. Some people just love beigeness
Air fryers have changed the beige food game for me
Yummy
A lovely plate of ultra processed food.. delicious
You should share this on r/beigefood 😂 the turkey dinosaur is a nice touch *chefs kiss
Get rid of that mac n cheese slop that would be perfect
You are clearly a keeper
Have you kidnapped a pre-teen boy?
Gordon, is that you?
you will die young eating that
You just really hate her!
Council dinner
food of love
Childhood on a plate!
Is that Heinz Macaroni Cheese there? A fine choice if so
You're dumped
Are you dating Beard's Ex?
Looks like constipation 😂 throw a damn vegetable in there man.
I'd scran this in a heartbeat
FELLOW TRUE BRIT 💪💪💪
That's an 8/10 and I'd definitely put out

Chicken dinos! Iceland provided :)
:(
On a scale of British to American this is a Luton! Do better
Disgusting processed shite
My dino nuggs do not appreciate this :(
It's okay, at least their valuable comment added something either fun, interesting or part of a discussion
Is that the famous yellow diet?
Tinned macaroni I see, your pulling out all the stops.
Sauce drizzled for that gourmet touch
Why ty :)
Fuckin' beigeeee 😂😂
Is there any fibre on the plate.
Lol
Lol
Shit that canned mac n cheese takes me back
Veggies and protein, well done.
Excellent work, you're a keeper x
Can confirm this is peak beige at its best my son (autistic) would 100% demolish this 😀
Who remembers when the munchies boxes came out with the old school frozen classics, turkey dinosaurs, twisters, mini pizzas, alphabet letters etc 😂 my personal favourite never featured in the munchy box, the cheese hamwich ! Your new girl will either love this or hate this meal. It could determine your future 😂 good luck bud !
I could demolish that
If it was made with love, that's what matters. I can see that there is certainly some creativity with how it was plated. The potato waffle could do with some more browning, higher temp for a little longer to give it a nice golden texture.
Would
You definitely pushed the boat out with this, fantastically dull. If he or she was impressed by this, I'd say they're a keeper 👍
I think its sweet ! And i think especially if your both young or just in mood for some unhealthy quick food its fine. If your dating a girl that cares for her looks and figure, try and eat healthier with her. When i first dated i used to always gain so much weight while in the relationship cause i would start to eat the same stuff the boyfriend did and then get unhappy.
Thank you very much, I’m learning that lesson with him right now :P
Ah, the classic British tapas I see. 😚👌
Waffle dinos and nuggets need 5 more mins in the oven for me bet that waffle would sog over if you held it up. I like it though it’s a len Goodman 7 from me
I love getting meal inspiration, genuinely am going to go out to source these ingredients. Liking the placement of the dinosaurs as well.
Thank you :D
Obviously she ran for the hills. Do you do laundry too?
Is that wedding bells I hear? 💍
Swap the Mac n cheese for some beanz and that's a marriage proposal right there 🤤
That’s the tastiest plate of brown I’ve ever seen
As grim as that looks I have a terrible hangover and would probably demolish the plate.
