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.
You do well to flee, townspeople! I will pillage your lands and dwellings! I will burn your crops and make merry sport with your more attractive daughters! Ha ha ha! Mark my words! Ooh! Ale! I smell delicious ale!

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?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Emily, do you know about alt.buffistas.net?
Don't click on that! It's filled with evil versions of regular Buffistas!
OK, probably not....

Haven't we had the "What did you call macaroni, ground beef, and tomatoes?" conversation? For the record, my mom called it American Chop Suey.
Surely somebody's put together a regional map by now.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
"What did you call macaroni, ground beef, and tomatoes?"
A waste of good macaroni and beef.

The internet seems to say that New Englanders call it American Chop Suey, midwesterners call it goulash, and "other areas of the country" call it slumgullion.

More internet searching seems to suggest that the name "slumgullion" is western, from the Slumgullion Pass in Colorado.
Edit: nope, other way. Slumgullion Pass was named for the muddy landslide, which looked kinda like stew.
