Companion to GURUving's "Boring Thread"

[Rowdyboy]

What is the blandest food you can imagine? Imagine that the dishes were prepared in a hospital cafeteria...

[Rowdyboy]

1. My answer

Rice cakes and/or cardboard

[LincolnMcGrath]

2. Rice cakes and/or cardboard

Is there a difference?

[Robbien]

13. I love rice cakes

Sometimes one gets spiced-out and rice cakes are perfect. Nice subtle flavor with great texture.

Poor little rice cakes have a bad rep.

3. Cream of wheat?

This stuff is GUMMY, dammit!

[Rowdyboy]

4. Definitely an excellent "other"

n/t

[madrchsod]

5. no salt saltines

and any mashed starch produce.

[populistmom]

6. Cream of Rice

Even more boring, but was all I could tolerate at times when I was pregnant the first time.

Plain Rice Cakes run a close second.

[GURUving]

7. Ever since I started eating chicken droppings

I don't know bland!

(reference to what these nuts are feeding cows)

[DS1]

8. Grits aren't food

SO STOP SAYING THAT!

[Rowdyboy]

10. Man, you have obviously never had cheese grits with shrimp

in New Orleans. It hurts my heart to think how long its been...

[DS1]

9. Unflavored Ramen is the obvious answer

:hi:

[SOteric]

11. Peas Porridge.

[GURUving]

12. Say "Peas Porridge priceless pies" 5 times fast

and you will win an imaginary prize!

I dare ya!

[Wonder_Cow]

14. ludfisk!

nt

[SOteric]

15. Oh I beg to differ. Lutefisk is odious, not boring.

[renegade000]

16. broth...no salt...ick

dishwater basically...

[terrya]

17. Plain jello is the blandest food on Earth.

And I've had hospital cafeteria jello....
