minus-squareBroadfern@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up28·6 days 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-up16·6 days agoI dunno who your macaron guy is but I’ve had some absolute bangers.
minus-squarebizarroland@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·6 days agoAgreed, Barbie is a meringue at best.
minus-squaresp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·4 days 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-squareearly_riser@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·5 days agoMacarons are awesome. That light airy slightly crispy “bun” things plus the creamy middle. Based on the comments I wager I put a lot more emphasis on mouth feel than a lot of people here.

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