...where do you live that people DON'T have a dishwasher? Everyone house I've ever seen in MN has one.
Every9ne I personally know has a dishwasher.
... I know one person in this country who has a dishwasher. what the hell?
idk what it's worth but the ONLY place I've seen without a dishwasher is my sister's college dorm 🤷♀️
According to my brief googling, there are 131.43 million households in America, and either 79 or 80 million American households own dishwashers. I could not find a breakdown by state, but I suspect they're predominantly popular in wealthier areas, and less popular in poorer areas.
Someone I know moved into an apartment with no dishwasher, and they were like "fuck this" and bought a countertop dishwasher. So apparently that's a thing.
Oh good, now I can stop using the top of my good ol' 1970s TV. As a bonus, maybe my wife will stop mentioning the smell.
Please say sike 🤢
Can I also cook Salmon in the dryer?
Mmmm salmon hummus 🤤
No, it will get beat up. If it's a tumbler anyway..
you need to use that weird rack that snaps into the middle.
Nah, I don't have a smart dryer so there's no way it's on Tumblr.
Yea but it's tenderizing the meat!
I can't believe this is a real article. It looks like a parody.
I mean I've cooked entire meals in the engine bay of a car before 🤷
This was a viral clickbait thing a few years ago. It only existed on twitter and Facebook and Instagram and thankfully I haven't seen it turn up again any time recently lol no one actually cooks like this, even here in America
Yea no ones doing this
I'm going to do it now just to spite you
Haha that’ll be a nice spite bite
to be fair a teacher at my elementary school in the mid '00s told my mom that she does this, I remember it distinctly
tom scott is
Just don't tell his landlord
lol he’s an automatic exemption to nearly everything
This was a fad in the early 1990s. I know a few people who tried it. I don’t know anyone who did it twice as it tends to require you to clean your dishwasher before and afterwards.
It was on an episode of Home Improvement. Not sure if the show started it or if it was just referencing the existing fad.

Do not let the americans cook.
A serving of green bean casserole
Bone ape tit bro
Yeah I'm just gonna say it, that looks fucking delicious, S-tier side dish
It is fucking delicious. And easy as shit to make too. It's got like 4 ingredients and takes 30 mins start to finish. My family used to eat this a lot when i was growing up because we were poor and busy and this is cheap and easy. But its one of the "poor people" foods im most nostalgic about
Ingredients
- 1 can of cream of mushroom
- 1/2 milk
- 4 cups green beans (they don't have to be fresh, canned or frozen can work too)
- French Onions
Cooking
- Mix everything into a pan (except the onions) and cook at 350f for 25 mins
- Sprinkle French Onions on top
- Cook for another 5 minutes
If you want to get really fancy you can sprinkle some shredded cheese on top after it cooks (I like Parmesan (but only the saw dust stuff in the tube), or sharp cheddar). It also makes great leftovers because it microwaves really well, and can be frozen and thawed with no issue.
For non-unitedstatesians: “French Onions” does not refer to the nationalty of the alliums, or the manner in which they’re cooked. It is a specific product:
And you gotta use these ones for casserole. Its in the constitution or something
It's definitely also the name of the manner in which they're cooked though, at least regionally here in the US.
My point is it’s not that. It’s the can.
Just because they're not called French's French Fried Onions doesn't mean they aren't French fried onions.
Disagree. The can and brand matters for a fully authentic version.
You can do an elevated version that uses haricots vert and fried onions and homemade cream of mushroom made with shiitakes or chanterelles or something, but that’s kinda a different dish.
I don't know what you're disagreeing with, you didn't address anything I said. Your misguided opinion on brandname gatekeeping doesn't stop French's fried onions from being French fried onions, so it just seems irrelevant.
You can pass that my way if you're not going to eat it, easily my favorite thanksgiving side dish.
