FOOD THREAD VOL. GRUB LIFE

I'll say it now, if it has raisins in it that ain't no empanada
i'll disagree
i've had raisins in an argentine empanada and a filipino empanada and both were damn good

it was different. the raisins weren't like how you buy in the store. not as dehydrated.
and there weren't many at all maybe 2 or 3 per empanada. added a little sweetness. i liked it
 
had some Al pastor tacos for lunch... presentation looks terrible cuz it was take out but it was legit lol... no diet soda this time just plain as water smh

Final product. Not the BIGGEST fan of Creole Style Jambalaya because of how the tomato mixture is prepared. Came out good tho. Well seasoned, but still too acidic for my taste. Next time I'm gonna make a stew out of the tomato mixture and fry it a bit to reduce the acidity. Similar to how Jollof Rice is prepared.

B Sox B Sox I see you made "alterations" to the $3 Pizza. I was tempted but didn't do it. I just ordered Two of them.

& Flatbread is so damn good man, still refuse to count them as being real pizza. :lol:

When I saw the price wasn’t changing as I was doing it I was all in :lol:

The shape is weird but they actually make a solid crust I feel like. Hard to not call it a flatbread though.
 

Flavor Wise, they got #1 Right, Brown SUgar/Cinnamon. However, I am a crust dude, and Pop-Tarts have always had solid crust for a cheap snack. The Frosting kills the crust for me, so I would prefer unfrosted. I would like to try #12: Frosted Chocolate Chip Pop-Tart, no frosting with a solid flavor.
