Welcome to Food Crimes! This community is here to collect all and any post about cursed food and generally unusual consumables.
Right now, here’s the rules:
- Posts must include an image or video containing food or drink.
- It must be unusual or cursed in some way. a. For example, something like Doritos Milk would be unusual, but normal milk would not.
- No AI posts whatsoever, and any images that were altered (Ex: Photoshop, Gimp) need to be tagged.
How to tag:
To tag your posts, please prepend or append the tag name inside square brackets. For example,[OC] Foo bar baz or foo bar baz [Meta] would be acceptable. Multiple tags will require separate pairs of brackets, like so: [Edited][OC] foo bar baz
Here are the current tags:
- Edited - The image was manipulated with editing software.
- OC - You made this cursed food yourself!
- Meta - Relating to the community itself.

(BTW, I’m looking for someone to help mod here! I myself would not be enough if this community goes beyond a few posts a day.)

I know enough people who break their spaghetti before cooking them or who cut them before serving them.
I die a little inside every time.
I die a little inside every time I hear a noodle slurped

I'm just gonna go ahead and say yes and not click the video lol. I can be incredibly sensitive to certain noises. Pretty sure I have misophonia
Why is that?
It goes against my culinary convictions. 😄
It is meant to be enjoyed in its full, long form - in my book. Breaking spaghetti changes the texture and how it twirls around a fork, thus changing the classic dining experience.
Plus, long spaghetti is (are?) perfect for catching the sauce evenly.
None of this will keep anyone from breaking them, but it keeps my world safe and sound. 😁
Nah, i prefer to cut and mix them instead of that thwirling and slurping. They could make Spaghetti Couscous-sized for all i care. But you do you.
How else are you to fit them into small pots?
You need to watch the pot but laying them over the pot of boiling water until they're soft enough to bend in the middle works fine.
