That seriously looks like the dinners we had every night in the 80's. I'm so used to it now I think it looks percent fine. It's I hadn't grown up in the 70 and 80s I would think it's terrible I guess

Something without macaroni in it to start with

No definitely have to add some pasta. That’s how I’ve always seen it made.

I just found out American Goulash is a thing, hence the confusion.

Why would you call that goulash? It doesn't resemble the real thing at all?

I'm making real Hungarian goulash, not marzetti.

You’re arguing with “America bad” people who don’t know food history

Hungarian immigrants created it a long time ago, likely using what they had regular access too

People blaming it on modern Americans are silly. Sometimes immigrants made twists on their original cuisine based on availability of ingredients

There are many Americanized dishes that are amazing. It is a beautiful thing if dishes get adopted to a different culture.

However... it is obviously super confusing just referring to whatever this is as 'goulash'. The only resemblance is the use of smoked paprika? There's different starch, meat, veggies, preparation method, it's just a completely different dish.

My point is that this was what Hungarian immigrant brought a good chunk of time ago & that’s what it’s called

This is the version of goulash that got introduced to America by Hungarians so long ago

I think the issue is that it neither looks nor tastes like Hungarian goulash, and most of us had elementary school lunch versions of this which is bland and greasy.

I mean, okay? That doesn’t change the origins though. It was made BY Hungarians who had come over here for who know what reason.

I'm not arguing with you... I'm trying to help you af the people shitting on it understand why so many are shitting on it. The altered-by-Hungarians version has been literally watered down even further. Why are you so defensive that you're being rude to people siding with you?

Because Americans are incapable of not butchering culinary naming conventions.

Like renaming ditalini to "salad macaroni". Or adding garlic to mayonnaise and calling it aioli. Or butchering the meaning of the word picante. Or taking the word for peppers in Italian and using it to rename a sausage that already had a name. Or gorditas and chalupas and tacos.

The list is endless really.
