Timelies all!
I don't think I had that dish growing up.
Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

I think we had that, but with rice instead of macaroni. Only we call it, er, hamburger and rice. So does that count then?

We had something like that, I think with pimentos? My dad could only make it when my mother was away because she thought it was so disgusting. (Which was actually the case with most of his old family recipes, come to think of it.)

One of my favorite dishes from childhood was basically mushed-up hamburger meat sautéed with salt and parsley, with the super-creative name of "mushed-up hamburger".

brenda, I know it's not godly to judge, but EEEWW!
Of course, the family dish from my father's side involves things I normally find disgusting, ladled over crackers. So I guess it's live and let live.
Also, I'm not sure I remember what pimentos actually are. Except that they have a fluctuating number of i's, and show up in olives and... loaf.
javachik! Um... hi! Sorry, our new Web blocker at work thinks this site falls under the "chat" category, and I couldn't think of an educational reason to get it unblocked!

marinated red peppers.
See, now that sounds just fine! It must be the association with olives and mystery meat that predisposes me badly toward them. I hereby rescind my EW.

The only spices my mother acknowledged were salt, pepper, celery seed in egg salad, onion powder, and garlic powder. The hamburger in slumgullion was browned with a little salt. Add a lot of water and cook the macaroni. Dump in the tomatoes, serve.
I suppose if you liked tomatoes, it wouldn't be bad. But that's a big If.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Emily, do you know about alt.buffistas.net?
