On the one hand, I would actually like to try and taste what SPUD is like. On the other, the pure amount of grease, chemicals, and other artificial ingredients might kill me instantly.
Uhh can't be that bad really. I mean most fast food is like that anyway right?
 
It's only enslavement when the Europans harness atomic power. It's Pinnacle Energy Liberation when the RU does it! I think way back I proposed that the RU and Europa having wildly different names for nuclear things. (stuff like plutonium and uranium being named after patriotic RU figures like Burrtonium or Custarium).
Bold of you to assume It wouldn't be Steelium or Oswaldium or in reality
Pinnacleium if you want to be really stupid about it
 
Well, it was said that SPUD was basically a McDonald's hash brown in a can. So what I'm imagining is a solid block of greasy potato that's ready to eat right then and there or can be cooked in a variety of different ways. Actually, I'm unsure in what the state of food laws regarding chemicals and artificial ingredients in the RU is. They can either be nonexistent or strictly enforced.

NUSA is the antithesis of todays USA, so Oswald probably forced all the clans to abide by government restrictions in exchange for extended capitalism.
 
SPUD is basically hashbrown congealed together with bacon grease and bacon bits. Later on, they will make a version that has beef. I'm imagining it being like a hashbrown congealed with brown gravy and tiny bits of chipped beef.
 
I was thinking about doing a pseudo-ISOT where portals in our world opened up to @Murica1776’s Future Madnessverse but then realized that the USA reacting to an alternate version of itself that literally describes itself as a “fundamentalist, culturally Marxist, Fascist state” wouldn’t roll over so well in the American political establishment. Hopefully when this TL is actually published as a book (please let it happen) it’ll manage to avoid all of these problems.

Sounds… good? Maybe it’ll taste better when it’s roasted/air fried?

I’m both revolted and intrigued. It sounds like something I’d retch seeing for the first time and then before no time would be gladly chow down on because it’s an easy to make meal.
There are times I wish there was a WMiT cookbook in a similar vain to the Official Fallout Cookbook…with the recipes obviously altered to make them less dangerous (like the cocaine in Sweet Victory being scratched out and ‘Pop rocks’ scribbled next to it)

Friends, don't get your meal from a can when you can get a Brindell's Buffalo Burger. Made with one hundred percent grass fed American Buffalo and any toppings you wish to add. Chances are there is a Brindell's near by. Just look for the three Golden B's. Brindell's, family owned since 1955.
 
Once we get to the point where the Madnessverse Internet is created, I want to see a version of Binging with Babish make a video on how to make a homemade version of "Good Ole Original Recipe SPUD"! Hell, I just want to see a Madnessverse BwB in general!

Btw! We should try to compile all the ads and posters I have made/fans have made. I sometimes post them and they get lost in the comment sea over the years
Here's one I'd made way back in the day:

That actually sounds good!
...It either means the Yankee in me offsets the Polish Catholic enough for me to be Pinnacle...
.....Or it just means I have a really junk-food sense of taste...either/or.

i know, shocking right?
 
I think I can replicate the taste of SPUD by just making two greasy plates of greasy hash browns, frying up some bacon, then putting the bacon in between the two hash browns to make a HB&B sandwich. Extra points (and chance for heart burn) by just smearing the bacon grease onto the hash browns like butter to bread.

(Please do not try what I just said at home.)

Might as well call this timeline The New Union: Last Days of Healthiness with all the extra-greasy junk food the Yankees are consuming.
Ehh, the hard-on NUSA has for physical fitness and exercise will probably balance things out. Still expect to see a whole host of heart problems in the elderly population later on.
 
Wait, I just got some ideas. The Japanese dish known as chicken rice, shown here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omurice, is pan-fried rice with a ketchup sauce/just ketchup and chicken. So, basically fried rice with ketchup. Considering that "tomato paste" is a Union thing, and the Union took over Japan, does that mean chicken rice will become a Japanese staple?

Also, do you think we'll get to see SPUD musubi?

Thank Jev from their perspective they live in a Christian Socialist welfare state
Ironically this is more like pre-industrial economics, with Rome and the Middle Ages. There’s this massive subject population which is exploited to support the higher classes. In this case the higher class happens to constitute the Pinnacle population of NUSA and the subject population is the entirety of South America.

God only knows what’ll happen when NUSA depletes all of South America’s resources.
