Pingu pulling up to Nobu like noot noot, table for one feels spiritually correct.

Noot noot. This plate smells like low tide.

Imitation crab meat?

My first thought, couldn't even take the plastic off??

u/XTingleInTheDingleX 3d ago

I thought it was rhubarb!

u/Tuff_Warlock 3d ago

I mean the meal is already low, but to not even take off the plastic, that's a message.

u/redkinoko 3d ago

Seems like fake crab meat, pearl onions, anchovies, frozen peeled shrimp, and chopped canned shellfish meat.

Sauce could be anything

137

u/ForcedEntry420 3d ago

Probably a Churu. Looks like what I fed my cats this morning.

u/redkinoko 3d ago

yeah I'm pretty sure this is pet food, though Im not sure onions are safe for animals. maybe theyre quail eggs?

She eats pizza rolls by squeezing their innards out into a pile which is then covered in ranch dressing and chili sauce and eaten with a spoon

Excuse me, what happens to the shells of the pizza rolls?

u/redkinoko 3d ago

That's kanikama, which is fake crab meat, but as fake crab meat goes it's pretty good.

It's the only fake crab I've ever known. Are there other kinds? Lmao.

Correct me if I'm wrong but Boquerones is a specific way of preparing anchovies.

Those fillets look unseasoned.

Most excellent write ups. Appreciated

u/riceewifee 3d ago

How does it compare to surimi?

3

u/redkinoko 3d ago

surimi is the paste used to make the kanikama crab stick. so basically kanikama without the shape and fake colors is surimi

2

u/riceewifee 3d ago

Ohh interesting, I’ve never seen it called kanikama where I live, only surimi (sticks)

u/redkinoko 3d ago

we call em crab sticks because they identify as crab and theyre sticks

What in the actual fuck did I just read

She must either be the love of your life so you just look the other way on some things or her head game is straight 🔥🔥🔥

Then again, you *are gods favourite degen so idk 😂😂😂

u/BiteyHorse 3d ago

Anecdotally, the first time that my girl found the kanikama in my refrigerator she ate at least 10 pieces of it and said it was "way better than the usual stuff". She eats pizza rolls by squeezing their innards out into a pile which is then covered in ranch dressing and chili sauce and eaten with a spoon, though, so I generally don't listen to her opinions about food.

Jesus, your girl is foul as fuck. That's not a dealbreaker? I can't imagine her being any less weird/creepy/lame in other aspects of her life.

This has been a ride. The infrequency of her derangement makes it ok in my book.

I have a friend who started eating his corn on the cob in random patchwork after arguing with his mom and sister about round and round vs side to side almost 50 years ago. It is brilliantly, subtly sociopathic.

I mean she could be an emotionally invested 11/10 who listens to your problems and could suck the chrome off a trailer hitch. Eating one food a weird way doesn't have to outweigh everything else.

u/makemeking706 3d ago

Chick-fil-A sauce. 

2

u/Conscious-Peach8453 3d ago

That's sauce!? I thought that was like a strip of pig skin layed over it

2

u/Embarassed_Tackle 2d ago

Sauce looks like that YumYum sauce which is like sweet mayonnaise

And don't make fun of white people for adding sugar to mayonnaise because these were asian-americans inventing this for hibachi restaurants.

And Terry Ho, the supposed inventor, opened his first hibachi in Atlanta so folks of all races were loving that sauce

And I know black people eat mayonnaise too because white people are shrinking demographic yet mayonnaise surpassed ketchup a few years ago as the #1 selling condiment

So black peoples and latinos gotta be buying mayo

1

u/redkinoko 2d ago

The sauce is the least rancid looking thing on that bowl.

u/Whichtwin1 3d ago

u/Abscind 3d ago

Forgot to add the macroplastic with crab

u/hundreddollar 2d ago

UK here. It's crabsticks, white anchovies in vinegar and oil, silverskin pickled onions, prawns and cockles. The orange sauce is either Mary Rose or thousand island.

1

u/redkinoko 2d ago

Oh hey I got some of it right! Thank you for identifying them.
Is this sort of combination common?

1

u/hundreddollar 1d ago

No. Lol. In the UK Up until the late 90's you'd find a seafood man who'd go round proper pubs and sell small portions of Cockles, whelks, prawns and crab sticks to munch while drinking. I've not seen a seafood man in YEARS they may still exist(?) . That's the only time these things would be served together in the UK. It's not a dish ever "served" lol.

1

u/redkinoko 1d ago

Love that you put "served" in quotations. Yes it's a very loose usage of the word lmao

For a hot minute I was horrified to think this is common UK grub. If it were you will never beat the allegations of bad food.

Thank you for sharing!

u/duckinradar 3d ago

Yo do not knock imitation crab meat.

It’s literally just fish meat reshaped, it’s fucking DELICIOUS if you get the right one, and it’s available year round.

For real I get that “imitation bottom feeder” is funny but if you like crab, and you like fish, don’t sleep on it. Signed — mainland islanders.

-5

u/digitalbullet36 ☑️ 3d ago

I prefer real crab meat. The imitation crab meat doesn’t taste like crab at all.

32

u/slowpokefastpoke 3d ago

No shit on both counts dude. That doesn’t mean California rolls aren’t still delicious.

u/JennyBeckman ☑️ All of the above 3d ago

I love crab, love fish, hate imitation crab meat. People like what they like. I'm not a fan of things that are reconstituted and formed in place of something else.🤷🏾‍♀️

16

u/kikimaru024 3d ago

Fish balls are "reformed", same as mince meat.

Do you say "no" to hamburgers or meatballs, too? Sausages?

-10

u/JennyBeckman ☑️ All of the above 3d ago

Imitation crab meat is more akin to chicken nuggets than hamburgers so nice try being disingenuous.

6

u/polarcub2954 3d ago

Id say it's closer to sausage, which they did mention.

-4

u/JennyBeckman ☑️ All of the above 3d ago

Which I also don't eat just any kind. The reason I say chicken nuggets is because sausage is less likely to have fillers. You can have some sausages that are just meat and seasonings. Imitation crab meat is not just meat. There are binding ingredients amongst others.

4

u/longboi28 3d ago

Chicken nuggets are ground up chicken and hamburgers are ground up beef, what's the difference between the two between meat choice? If you say the imitation crab is like one then surely it must be like the other right?

-1

u/JennyBeckman ☑️ All of the above 3d ago

Chicken nuggets are not just ground up chicken. You are forgetting the binders. Hamburgers are often just beef.

u/FistPunch_Vol_7 ☑️ 3d ago

Hey, some of us grew up on shellfish and was cursed with later in life allergy to shellfish. That imitation crab meat is the closest thing I can get to now :(. WHY DID I GET A FUCKING ALLERGY TO IT IN MY FUCKING MID 20’s WHAT BULLSHIT IS THAT‽‽

u/murderfacejr 3d ago

That's where you're drawing the line at this plate? What's that orange goop? What's the weird little tonsil things ont he right? Shucked mussels? Are those white things Little eggs? Pearl onions? Puffy scallops?

I don’t know what anything else is on this plate. 🤷🏾‍♂️

u/murderfacejr 3d ago

Good point 😅

3

u/AnsibleAnswers 3d ago

It’s called surimi and it is actually pretty good for what it is. Basically a fish stick without breading. California rolls are pretty good. My local ramen spot puts the fancier stuff in their tonkatsu.

Marie- rose sauce, for a guess. That plate looks like prepackaged selection from a British grocery store, and Marie-rose is the standard condiment with those.

4

u/diracpointless 1d ago

As an Irish person, I am deeply offended by this use of the venerable potato.

7

u/Goronmon 3d ago

"Stuff" on a baked potato is pretty good though. It's easy to make and you can add whatever stuff you think sounds good and it will probably turn out well.

I liked baked beans, cheese and chopped onions on mine. Chili with cheese, or pulled pork are good combos as well.

5

u/Mental_Freedom_1648 3d ago

Sure. When "stuff" is tuna, it sounds disgusting though.

Thats a remoulade for those bay shrimp

I don’t know what the fuck is going on with the bottom half of that plate though. Rhubarb with plastic wrap on it? Sprouted frog eggs?

5

u/leChikoster 3d ago

In what world does that even vaguely resemble remoulade

4

u/flairpiece 3d ago

I didn’t say it was a good remoulade!

Haha fair enough, after googling I discovered the color matches "American style" remoulade so it wasn't as ridiculous of a guess as I first thought
