>At girlfriends family thanksgiving for the first time. >Apparently her family trims the white meat off the turkey and throws the rest away with the carcass every year. >They think the dark meat is garbage, like only feral dogs would want it >Wait till the old people are distracted with football in the other room >Have to sneak the turkey carcass into the trunk of my car to eat the dark meat later >I forget about it and it ends up making the car smelly anyway
Seriously, who the fuck does this? I'd never heard of throwing away all the dark meat before. Is this some baby boomer wastefulness that was lost on subsequent generations?
op it sounds like you were the feral dog in that story
Caleb Long
This. Her family is odd for only eating the white meat. But you are the weirdo that crept around trying to steal the "garbage". Guarantee one of them saw you and are talking shit about you and probably her to the rest of the family.

That chicken looks nasty when it comes out of the can, but I bet it would look just fine once it's been heated up in the oven.
Caleb Hernandez
depends on the family, I bet he's trying to marry up and they think he's garbage. and rightfully so

I dont have horror stories so much as the way my mom cooks is extremely annoying and substandard whenever she isnt making one of her really good 'signature' dishes.
Does not pound her chicken, doesn't time or measure anything properly, has extremely shitty knife skills, has no sense of portion control, under seasons, etc. And she thinks criticism is "being mean" so even just trying to get her to stop making 7 massive chicken breasts for 3 people + 3 side dishes is unacceptable. I grew up thinking shit like burnt rice and overly tough/bland chicken was normal til I started learning on my own from the internet.

Mother in law is awful cook. Wife told me she doesn't like pork chops because pork chops are hard, dry, and make her choke. Don't want shitty overcooked turkey this Thanksgiving so I offer to cook at her house.
> Buy fat turkey from Whole Foods with discount > Bring it two days early, dry rub 24 hours out > Butter under the skin and dick is hard > Cook it in a fucking pot because no roasting pan > Pull it out and let it rest.

PERFECT. > Get down the street > Where's my wallet? Gotta go back.. > Walk in, turkey is missing > Open oven door. > Lid on oven set to 450*f
That time the mother in law tried to Grinch my Thanksgiving turkey. Wife likes pork chops now.

It's a casserole with ground beef, shelled pasta, tomato puree, corn, etc. It's like a mix between chili and jambalaya.
Mason Sanders
so they were racists? lol
James Robinson
Never heard of it. Sounds okay though. Where does that name come from?
Aaron Jones
I honestly have no idea. I tried googling it and it's nowhere to be found. I'm sure it has to do with the native Americans though. I wonder if it's just a family recipe. I'd ask my mom if it wasn't midnight, and I'm not even sure exactly how to make it myself.

The reason you bring your bf/gf to a family festivity is because you think he or she might be in the future part of the family. Bonding through such experiences is part of becoming family. If you niggers wouldn't bring your bump and dump cunts and meat sticks to family dinners, you wouldn't need to cringe thinking of a sweet family moment. It's not like they asked you to deliver it straight from her crotch on the dinning table and enjoy some ejected womb-pudding afterwards.
Samuel Hernandez
>ground beef, shelled pasta, tomato puree, corn, etc. the corn makes it indian and the rest a mushed up decapitated head, sounds like to me
Cameron Roberts
I'm not complaining. Savages living in fucking skin huts too stupid to invent their own guns shouldn't be allowed to exist.
Cameron Perry
Learn how to read. I'm not cringing and I never said it wasn't sweet. I just didn't know what to do other than smile a little. The reason it was weird was that I wasn't the only person sitting there in silence, it was just the pregger girl and aunt talking

>boneless skinless chicken breast baked with salt and pepper until overcooked >diced into small chunks and then boiled in campbells chicken broth with potato chopped to be larger than golf balls, carrot slices and onion >she adds so much salt to the broth that it's bordering on inedible >figure out that she only puts the "soup" in her bowl with a slotted spoon
Joshua Lewis
common problem when making duck a l'orange. you probably didn't use the right kind of oranges.
Easton Jenkins
I don't know, that is weird. Seems like a waste. I thought most people have a preference when someone carves the turkey. Would you like light or dark meat?
My Dad usually hauls the carcass home to cut up and boil down. Some people just don't want to mess with it I guess.
He used to work in the meat industry and I guess some places threw away the bones before realizing they can sell them for premium money. Especially now since people want to make stocks out of them.
Nah, OP taking the carcass bird home ain't that bad.
>Have left over pizza at girlfriends >Her Dad sees it in there for a few days, toss it >Get super hungry one night staying over >See huge pizza box in garbage bin >Look to see whats around it, if the box has been breached >Looks 'aight, heat it up >Next day her Dad tries closing up the garbage bag >Takes the box out, notices it is empty >Asks girlfriend what happened to the pizza >Both look at me like some animal, feral dog >Realize I am just some subhuman CHUD eating from the waste bin >Her Dad feels bad I am eating from the garbage, buys more food
Probably the most awkward moment. Her Dad's dead now and I don't talk to her. Oh well.
Brayden Gomez
Well, my ex bf was throwing full bags of fries and burgers away because they were cold without even opening while I was unironically starving for a few months only having like 50€ in the first wolrd for a month. Done that multiple times.
Ryan Young
not necessarily family, but I have a friend who's abysmal at cooking and has the palate of a ten year old girl
>we're hanging at his place, decide to make some pasta for dinner >he rinses the pasta for literally a whole minute, to the point it's completely cold >serves it with a runny tomato sauce that has absolutely no taste (probably just watered down canned sauce) >barely seasons it because "too much salt is bad" >blows on it after plating because apparently it was still too hot
I'm not a great cook by any means, but at least my food has SOME taste to it.
Robert Clark
>mom was giving Indian head >we didn't have anything but creamed cum for sauce >it was too salty

Jack Murphy

I'd never been more angry in my life. My brother looked like he wanted to drown her in the pool. My uncle looked like he wanted to drown himself in the pool. Ruined the day.

I think that if someone, even family, did that in my home I would throw them out of the house. It's not just about fucking up the food; it's an act of total disrespect. Like going into my bedroom and rummaging through the drawers or something. You just fucking DON'T.
Bentley Reed
I never understood this. Why do women do this?
Landon Russell
Seriously why would anyone ever touch food while someone else is preparing it. I just don't understand the psychology behind it, do they really think they're helping or is it actual sabotage? Are they offended you didn't cook it the way they would have?

Sister made chicken tendies, didnt have breadcrumbs so she just served me chicken covered in flour then cooked.
This was years ago, but recently she made almond breaded chicken fingers. Bit into one and it was fucking raw.
My sister is not a good cook. She always makes shity healthy versions of food. Zuchinni pasta, turkey chili, egg white omlettes, ugh.

Blake Barnes
yea, my family use to do the same thing, well not as bad, but they would dry the fuck out of the turkey. that stopped the day I was a kid and refused to eat the turkey, when asked why, I said it "was dried out shit" trying to quiet me down to not embarrass them they told me use gravy, I caked it in gravy, cut it into the smallest pieces possible and ate it, looked my mom in the eyes "It did nothing" they stopped forcing me to eat it, I finished off with a bunch of bread and went to my room.
Nothing really happened where I can see it
Next year I don't even bother with turkey, they put some on my plate and my exact response, see they didn't care about my language much, but around family I was to not really say anything horrible, "Why the fuck did you make it like shit for so many years?"
Apparently some of my extended family heard and laughed about that, that was the last time I ever ate/tolerated shitty turkey.
If embarrassment gets these results, why the hell does every not do this?
