MOD POST Important Changes to r/StupidFood

2.7k Upvotes

Hello r/StupidFood Patrons,

Happy Holidays! We hope everyone is enjoying a cozy and delightful winter season. We’ve listened to your feedback and are thrilled to announce some major updates to the rules and the overall direction of this subreddit to help maintain quality and improve your experience here.

What’s Changing?

1. Ragebait is Now Completely Banned

We’ve noticed trend of low-effort, “ragebait” posts made solely to rake in upvotes. This includes TikTok-style shorts that intentionally ruin food for shock value. These posts detract from the spirit of our community and will no longer be allowed.

2. This is Not the Place for Self-Created “Crappy” LOW-QUALITY Dishes 

Posts of intentionally poorly prepared dishes from your own kitchen just to get upvotes are not permitted. r/StupidFood is about the bizarre, odd, or genuinely surprising foods you encounter out in the world—think unusual restaurant meals or strange grocery store finds, not your own contrived stunts. Exceptions to this however is if it's a really bad meal someone made then you can post it here. Remember, just because you don’t like it doesn’t mean it’s stupid.

3. Subreddit Appearance Updates

We’ve freshened up the look of our community! Check out our new banner, avatar, and updated flair/status indicators. We hope these changes make the subreddit feel more fun and engaging.

4. Zero Tolerance for Racism

This community is for enjoying weird food—not attacking people. We welcome everyone, regardless of background, culture, or religion. Any racist or hateful content will result in an immediate, permanent ban. We’re committed to keeping this a welcoming space. Posts that make fun of other cultures and religions will be removed. Make fun of the food not the culture.

5. No A.I.-Generated Content

A.I.-generated submissions don’t align with our goal of sharing authentic, community-driven content. Such posts will be removed as low-quality.

5. Political Posts and comments are not allowed

r/StupidFood is not a place to go on political rants. Please don't turn this subreddit into a twitter thread and just keep politics to yourself.

Implementation & Future Plans

We’ll roll out these changes gradually over the next two weeks, with updated rules posted in the sidebar. Please review our Wiki for guidance on our purpose and evolving rules. After these updates stabilize, we plan to open moderator applications to further support our community.

If you encounter posts or comments that violate these rules, please continue using the Report button. Your diligence helps keep our subreddit enjoyable for everyone.

Your Feedback Matters

We want to hear from you! Please use this thread to share your thoughts, questions, and concerns. We’ll be actively monitoring the comments and will respond to inquiries about the rules as promptly as possible. Your input helps shape the future of r/StupidFood.

Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work together to make this subreddit the best it can be!

— The r/StupidFood Moderation Team

Edit: I just also want to remind everyone that we are kind of short on staff and we are not perfect so we are sorry if we don't get to comments and posts right away! Please bear with us as we are kind of overhauling the subreddit! ALSO these rules are not set in stone and can be changed according to the communities liking so please don't get upset!

Gluttony overload I tried Dill Pickle Fudge!

38 Upvotes

It's actually pretty good. Not dill pickle flavor enough. Just as I suspected, dill herbs or pickle flavoring (whichever is being used) changes in taste when sweetened and added to creamy stuff. Just like the way that peanut butter is so versatile. I bought it for Christmas due to the German Christmas pickle ornament tradition. as in, it seemed like a fun thing to try on Christmas Day haha. Even my partner liked it who doesn't like sweet things and he was skeptical at first. It tastes more like a white chocolate fudge but i would enjoy it less sweet and more dill flavor. Just a little.

Seasonal chicken we got at my work, they are labeled as "holiday spiced" but the box we got them in says eggnog flavored. They taste vaguely of cinnamon, idk why anyone thought this was better than regular chicken.

Look, I'm from the Southern US and we do eat some weird things here. I've eaten heart, sweetbreads, liver, gizzards, lizards, bugs, and chicken feet. But I cannot imagine brains in milk gravy. Can anyone advise?

And why Amazon thinks I want this is beyond me....

ಠ_ಠ Salmonella stuffed waffle

Post image
0 Upvotes

I was always seeing people walking around looking happy with this waffle, the stand always had a never ending queue of people eager to buy one, so I wanted to try. So I did buy myself one today.

Hands down the worst fucking thing I’ve eaten in 2024.

I’ve seen a mural earlier today that said “Nie wieder ist jetzt” (Never again is now) and I think they meant that ignominy of a “waffle”. When they said “vanilla cream” I expected chiboust cream, or even a variation of chantilly.

How foolish of me.

Here’s a name for that insult to all creams that ever existed that they dare to sell to innocent people: RAW FUCKING MERINGUE WITH FAKE ASS VANILLA EXTRACT

Aka the flavour of instant regret.

I should have asked “I’ll take a waffle, Disappointment flavoured please, with a side of Disgust, yes”

Investing my 5€ in subprime-mortgages in 2006 would have been a better investment than this demonic horror. Christmas abnegation to keep traditions up I guess.

The stand advertised “Waffle with vanilla cream like before”. They forgot to mention that by “before” they meant the post-war recession when people ate bread sandwiches and apparently isolating foam waffles.

End of my rant.
