Over time pasta carbonara has become one of the most controversial dishes out there. You would think with a simple preparation of pancetta, egg, parmesan, and black pepper it would not be a big deal. However not too long ago I read an article about Nigella Lawson posting her recipe for the dish on twitter, and people flipped out on her. All because she puts cream in her sauce. In all honesty despite any lack of authenticity cream might provide I tried her recipe and I enjoyed it.

Bacon Ramen
I have an intense love of ramen that dates back to when I was in middle school. I was sleeping over at my best friend’s house and for lunch her mom made us grilled cheese and chicken flavored instant ramen, or as they referred to it, ray-man noodles. I later learned that ray-man is not widely accepted as canonical pronunciation of ramen noodles, but I digress. I had a period of about two or three years after that where I would always force my mom to keep maruchan in the house because I was that about it. I was obsessed to the point of complete burnout.
Steak Dolly

lies in the same recipe being used for years on end with no refresh button being hit.
