Let’s eat a blood-red dish to celebrate a tyrants death of a country with red flags.
Recommend borsht btw.
America is terrified of cabbage, I’ve learned. Cabbage and beets

@PugJesus@lemmy.world, I sense a pattern.
The spirit of Ancient Cabbage Man haunts me
We have some amazing beet salads in the PNW!
Most everything with beets is delicious! It’s just exhausting to constantly encounter aversion to what delights me
I am also in the PNW and I disagree. But I just don’t like beets.
I don’t think this is true, but there are very few dishes we eat that use them. They aren’t a large part of our culture or diet. Most people I’ve interacted with while having either like them though.
The people willing to have them love them, but they’re commonly perceived as poverty foods. No clue why. Cabbage wraps, cabbage salad, cabbage stew, roasted cabbage, cabbage-based stocks, purée of cabbage, pickled cabbage, sautéed cabbage, etc., I usually get sneering, but when I bring out the same dishes subbed with parsnips or celeriac, they’re culinary masterpieces. I chalk it up to Cold War propaganda gone haywire.
That could be why, yeah. It’d make sense. My family is from WV originally (I never lived there though), and “poverty foods” aren’t looked down on. Honestly, some of my favorite comfort foods are “poverty foods.”
Might be a silly place to ask, but are any of these favorites dairy free? I’ve been hunting for new recipes lately!
Black beans, sausage, and rice is a common one I really like. A WV special is pepperoni rolls, which can have cheese but it isn’t required. Everyone loves those when they try them. I’m not sure why they haven’t spread further.
To be fair, beets are not very appetizing. Cabbage, though…

Also did the Loony Tunes folks design all signs back then?

It was all done by hand with a paint brush. It looks good because they had a lot of practice. Bet it was done on butcher paper.
