    It's really not all that healthy BUT... I like it :smile:
    The T-giving buffet should never be about health options, imo.  ;)

    You can have my helping of GBC, Brian.  Enjoy it!

    Not about health?  Well, then, lets move on to the pie!  Better yet, pies!

    Indifferent. Finds its way onto my plate.
    It's not great, but it isn't disgusting by any stretch of the imagination.
    Well, maybe it does look like barf...

    Honestly that picture is nasty! I do like the cass. I do take a small scoop because I like everything else more. I'm a whole lotta polish so I do eat kilbasa and golumpkies! Oh I sure do love my gwumps! Oh the joy! They get their own separate plate.

    Gwumps are pigs n a blanket or stuffed cabbage rolls. Three meat mixture in that bad boy! Omg mouth is watering. 
    Oh please let it rain today.

    Yes they have. I won't touch the canned version. But this is delicious. A ton of work though

    We're smoking our turkey this year. Wanted to share we are smoking a green bean dish with bacon and shrooms. :smiley:

    Time for this disgusting shit to be rolled out again.  I, for one, will ignore it.
    Blech.

    Time to make some real green beans, with fresh beans, lightly steamed, maybe some lemon juice, or sautéed with slivered almonds.

    Sounds great!
    I go with a little water, some olive oil, and a tight lid.  Once they are (very) lightly steamed, strain out the water.  Leave the oil.
    Crank the fucking heat. 
    Shake every so often.
    Blast with a freshly cut lemon and a good sprinkle of red salt.
    Eat.  Enjoy.

    (Or, make a mushy & disgusting concoction with some bullshit canned soup and canned fried onions.)

    I like it but if given the choice I’d rather just have green beans.

    Look at this -- people put this on the T-giving buffet.  (Looks like a dog bowl filled with barf)

    Well WTF is THAT?! I would have thought anyone would eat that, lol. Disgusting. And what, are people actually canned beans? That's gross. I've always pictures a nice dish with fresh french beans, properly cooked, not over cooked, and not swimming is half-congealed shit. So in my mind it seems like it would be good.
