Stupidest name for a diner dish?

[Must_B_Free]

The idea of a "fudge fantasy" is frightening enough in itself, let alone the cookie...

Rooty Tooty Fresh and Fruity - regardless of the tast, you have to say it! Roots aside, I don't want to eat anything "tooty"... brussel sprouts are bad enough.

1. How about "Hot Dish" from North Dakota.....there is NO recipe

is means a thousand different "casserole" type things.

[trotsky]

2. We call it "hotdish" in Minnesota, too.

And be careful, buddy - I was raised on hotdish! Rice & hamburger, ham cheese & potato, turkey cheese & noodle, the possibilities are endless and you can put all your food groups together that way. :)

14. That's what we called it in MN also.

Our Wisconsin cousins would mock us. Called it "casserole". Said a "hot dish" was what a "casserole" was served in.

22. I got teased in Wisconsin too for my use of the word hotdish.

Tell your cousins they have it backward. The "casserole" is what the "hotdish" is served in.

[Left Is Write]

21. Yeah! You said it!

There are many recipes for hotdish, of course.

My family favorite is hamburger hotdish. I also make a great chicken hotdish.

I am constantly teased about the word "hotdish" (born and bred Minnesotan here!), but I don't understand the confusion. It's hot. It's a dish. What's not to get?

5. Hawaiians love the Poo Poo Platter

8. That's PuPu platter,

and it's usually served with several small dishes, sort of like a Polynesian tapas, and almost always features a marinated meat dish served with small wooden pupu forks.

4. Can't forget Frank Carvel's "Cookie Puss"

the icecream cake that looks like a clown face...

[AlCzervik]

6. He always sounded like he was on the verge of a major heart attack

[CO Liberal]

7. It Was TOM Carvel

"Cookie Pusss..... Fudgie the Whale.....To a Whale Of a Dad....fresh product....we do NOT use an air pump!"

My kid sister studied speech when she was in college. She was convinced that Tom Carvel had a cleft palette.

At St Patrick's Day, of course.

11. Why not Steak Fried Chicken?

[CO Liberal]

12. What's Even Dumber is "Chicken Fried Chicken"

I keep telling people around here it NOT "Chicken Fried Chicken" - it's "Fried Chicken"!!!!!!

[Must_B_Free]

13. Does that go for Steak Fried Steak, too?

[CO Liberal]

15. No

But many places in and around Pueblo have "Chicken Fried Chicken" on the menu.

I want so badly to ask if a chicken fried my chicken.
