minus-squareBroadfern@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up28·5 months agoA good split pea soup, for sure. Edit: and macarons look super pretty but taste…meh? Imo. Like if you were to imagine what Barbie food tasted like, it’d be a macaron.
minus-squarecattywampas@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up16·5 months agoI dunno who your macaron guy is but I’ve had some absolute bangers.

minus-squaresp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·5 months agoYep, I was gonna post this. Split pea soup just actually looks like literal vomit or diarrhea, has a very, very weird texture to it visually… … but if you do it right, it just tastes amazing.

minus-squareBroadfern@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·5 months agoYes. Coconut macaroons are S-Tier cookies, especially when the bottoms are dipped in chocolate.
