Five guy style twice fried French fries. Hamburger bun grilled cheese with processed cheese food slices, hot dogs from the air fryer. Fry sauce made from mayonnaise, ketchup and malt vinegar.

Ask your doctor if American food is right for you.

Cost per person: $2.40.

review by an American: the aesthetic is right, but all the details are wrong. would definitely eat it, would never have thought to make it. fascinating to be on the other side of how other cultures must feel about our attempts at their cuisine

I'm sure someone somewhere has made that exact sandwich before, but not on purpose. that's the kind of thing you make because you're stoned or broke and it's all you've got right now

    American here, @FauxPseudo@lemmy.world. Don't listen to this.

    That shit looks great. Looks like a sourdough bun from Jack in the Box. I don't eat a lot of food like this, maybe once or twice a year, but that there looks killer. Good job!

    Another American here, sure it looks great, but that wasn't the point of the comment. It's that it's not quite American food. I love malt vinegar as much as the next Anglophile but we don't really use it here except for fish sometimes, and sure I'd fuck up a hot dog sandwich but I've never heard of one outside of a struggle meal.
