Wanda's Macaroni Salad - WTF?

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share
1

Not wanting to de-rail the Potato Salad thread completely (lord knows I tried),
I thought I’d share a completely WTF video.

Sara is a, um, plus-sized gal who obviously loves food and its preparation.

The internet is such a fun place - please feel free to share your favorite OMG or WTF videos. I’m not looking for funny kittens or kids faceplanting from various vehicles.
Taser victims and groin shots are so passe.
I seek the slightly odd to the completely stunning.

Something that just leaves you speechless and shaking your head.

Let us see what you’ve found.

Please tell me that’s some kind of sick joke.

3

I couldn’t watch past the mayonnaise. That is one hardcore recipe.

4

I love how the healthful benefits of the green pepper, carrot, etc., are all negated by the massive amounts of mayo, sugar, etc. And, come on now, Sarah, an ENTIRE JAR of mayo? Surely half a cup would be more than enough.

5

I read a comment somewhere, where someone said he’d heard that ‘Simply Sara’ had died. I posted here to ask if it was true, but nothing came of it.

6

Wow, who added the calorie counts to that? Bet it wasn’t Sara…

Also, she’s not very good at estimating amounts, is she? “About a …cup…of vinegar…” as she pours in at least TWO cups.

7

Failure to correctly estimate quantities, for example, in portion control, may lead to obesity.

8

Sweetened condensed milk AND a cup of sugar.

Bleh.

9

I think you may be onto something here!

10

They also say that the camera adds ten or fifteen pounds.

11

. . . to the face.

12

I couldn’t hear what she was saying, as I don’t have sound, but GOOD GOD!!! Is there normally sugar in macaroni salad? I don’t know, I don’t eat it.
(What’s kind of sad is that she disabled comments in all of her videos – I can only imagine how nasty people were. On the other hand…GOOD GOD WOMAN!!! YOU’VE GOT MORE CHINS THAN A CHINESE PHONEBOOK!!!)

[sub]I was eating some corn chips with hummus – I love hummus – and I had to put them away. I think I’ll favorite that video, it’ll curb my appetite when I feel the need to splurge on sweets.[/sub]

13

You must hear it to get the full effect. Do you have earphones you can plug in?

14

The striking thing about the video is how blissfully clueless Sara is. She’s so darned proud of how delicious the dish is. Why doesn’t she see the video the way we see it?

15

Heck no. At least, not in any macaroni salad I’ve ever made or read a recipe for. Most recipes at worst have an overabundance of oil and/or mayo. I’ve never seen a sweet macaroni salad. Yuk.

16

[chandler bing] So, how many cameras were on you? [/chandler bing]

17

I love that a person is spending the time and energy on making a cooking show. Even someone who is so…non-traditional looking.

But would it have killed her to clean off the counters?

18

That was nauseating. Most pasta salads have far too much mayo for my taste. Mine uses two ounces of mayo for a pound of pasta. Plus other ingredients (up to a cup of kalamata or other spicy olives, two peppers of different colors, a few tablespoons of chopped pickled hot pepper rings, five scallions, 2 tsp of sweet relish (just a bit of sweetness)).

19

Perhaps.

20

Forget the mayo (which was excessive) but SWEETENED CONDENSED MILK???

gross.
