    I mean…no…quiche is a custard base with cheese and no top crust. A chicken pot pie uses a roux with no cheese and a top crust.

    The top crust is not really that big a deal, but custard vs roux is significant. Also, cheese.

    The veggie mixture tends to be very different too, but that is pretty flexible for quiche and I’m sure a quiche with similar veggies to a pot pie would be good, but I don’t think it would be a traditional flavor profile.

      According to the way my dad makes “quiche” it’s an ommelette with more cheese than egg set inside of a pie crust.

      Booooo! Get out of here with that reasonable and accurate analysis! We’re not here for truth, we’re here for shower facts

      (Yes you are correct, eggs =/= chicken as an ingredient. You learn this when you try to use pureed chicken breast as an egg replacement in cake. It was a meaty cake)

        Haha true I don’t think I’d like a cake made with pureed chicken instead of eggs!

A “Showerthought” is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you’re doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:

  • Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
  • When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
  • More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. No politics
    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as “capitalism” and “communism”. If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct and the TOS

If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.

Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
