Macaroni with cheese. As in the macaroni was cooked on its own and the cheese was a sauce.

The idea comes from the reality of it being the truth.
In this regard though Greeks,Italians,Spanish etc are not considered white. You can taste the culture in their food. We're talking British American White here, throw in the Scandinavians too. Food taste like wood.
I’m surprised that so many people picked up on this bland food thing because I never noticed it, but it’s true.
There is an actual explanation why WASP New England, and by extension, Europe, has uncharacteristicly bland food. It was because in the 1600s it became a status symbol by the elites to stop seasoning their food....
“Back in the Middle Ages, spices were really expensive, which meant that only the upper class could afford them. But things started to change as Europeans began colonizing parts of India and the Americas.
"Spices begin to pour into Europe," explains Krishnendu Ray, an associate professor of food studies at New York University. "What used to be expensive and exclusive became common."
Serving richly spiced stews was no longer a status symbol for Europe's wealthiest families — even the middle classes could afford to spice up their grub. "So the elite recoiled from the increasing popularity of spices," Ray says. "They moved on to an aesthetic theory of taste. Rather than infusing food with spice, they said things should taste like themselves. Meat should taste like meat, and anything you add only serves to intensify the existing flavors."
The shift began in France, in the mid-1600s, adds Paul Freedman, a professor of history at Yale University. "It was a way to also show off the wealth of the French provinces," Freedman says.
The rest of Europe soon adopted this new style. "It's a redefinition of what elegant is," Freedman says. "It's sort of like — in fashion — for a while having more frills, more jewelry was fashionable. But then someone said that a basic black dress with some pearls is much better."

Fam. White People in general are terrible cooks. Italians can not save you. They have a very strong food culture and are the exemption.
I’ve seen some shyt that is straight appalling. Most white People don’t even trim the fat off chicken before cooking it
White folks don't wash their hands after using the toilet.

The closest you'll get to "seasoning" from Cody and Liz is pet dander from hugging their cats
Nah, she had to be using half a cup or something. I had a 'follow the directions' phase and it tasted nothing like hers.
