Current mood:Is splooge AUTHENTIC?!?

Wank is not an authentic topping for bruschetta!
Surfing around from one of the latest wanks, saw this linked in [info]coflower's journal and thought it was absolutely hilarious.

Over on [info]vegrecipes, [info]rain_andflowers posts asking for a simple recipe for bruschetta.

You wouldn't think this would be a wanky subject.

Fortunately, [info]tranzutopia is here to set us straight. There is no cheese in bruschetta, EVER. [info]miss_cupotea says "forgot about the vegrecipes authenticity mafia.", which sets off the racism wank; it is SERIOUS BUSINESS to make cracks about Sicilians, but perfectly okay to make cracks about Scots. (There is more wank about Scottish cuisine here. Also somewhere in there is an allegation that they're only being OMGMEEN because Tranzutopia has diabetes and epilepsy and stuff and can't type. And anyway, the batshit crazy is OK because hir mother just died. Or something.) [info]abazureonna tries to inject some Earth logic into the situation, but nothing doing; all it does is provoke some comment about somebody in Hoboken stealing noodles.

[info]tranzutopia's now deleting some of hir comments, but [info]coflower has helpfully archived some of them. It's four whole posts of archived crazy.

Thank you.

Ask for bruschetta, get Scots vs. Italians. Who knew? Also, who knew cooking was serious business?

Whoa. Damn. I saw this when it showed up on stupid_free, but I had no idea tranzutopia had gotten that batshit. If her mother-in-law died a half-hour ago, what's s/he doing on the internet wanking about bruschetta and Scottish food? Not that people don't have the right to be on the Internet when bad stuff happens, but if it's affecting one so much that it is affecting one's ability to be sane... then get off the site for a little while?

Of course, this is assuming s/he would be sane anyway, which is... unlikely, and that's being gracious.

It's not like bruschetta is the easiest thing in the world to make, or anything. Chop tomatoes, maybe onions. Toss with balsamic vinegar. Spoon onto garlic toast. Sprinkle with basil chiffonade. Wilt under broiler. THERE, BRUSCHETTA.

Mmm, I want some bruschetta now.

As a Scot from Aberdeen, I know I should probably be offended by the ragging on Scotland but hell, I'm just really amused right now.

Also, I'm slightly confused about the "I lived on an island in the North Sea and cooked for the oilrigs" thing. I'm fairly certain the catering staff are, you know, on the rigs and flotels with the crews.

ONOEZ the Sicilians are being persecuted! Except that I haven't met too many non-Italians who can tell the difference between Sicilians and other southern Italians.

I've made bruschetta with cheese before. And I'm part Italian and part Scottish. So I don't know how that all works out. Apparently I hate myself and make terrible food?

WOW. Maybe you should actually stop posting if you're having a medical problem instead of trying to shame people on the internet. I really can't fathom the kind of life I'd have if food internet drama caused me mass amounts of stress.

Seriously, I don't have a fit every time I see "Cajun Chicken Pasta" on a Chili's menu. Oh, wait, I haven't trained for years under the wing of sensei Paul Prudhomme in the mists of the bayou. Alligator-Teeth Chopping Technique! Hurricane-Power Blending! KYAHHHH! I AM ONE WITH THE FANBOAT!

I've had bruschetta. Pronounced both ways. With and without cheese. Made by first-gen Italian relatives and neighbors hailing from Calabria, Napoli, and Sicily.

I suppose I should be expecting the Mafia at my doorstep any day now. Good thing I know how to make stuffed shells.
