Marinara sauce is not good on mozzarella sticks/ fried cheese anything

r/

Hey let’s take some good fried cheese whatever and stick it into some (often way too sweet, often cold) tomato sauce. I get why marinara is popular with mozzarella sticks or whatever, I do actually like pizza. However the tomato sauce on pizza is not the same as marinara. It’s usually less sweet and more thin, and there’s usually an even tomato-cheese ratio. There’s also usually pepperoni or some kinda topping that makes it even better.

Now the opinion that will make me sound clinically insane is I love mozzarella sticks with mustard and honey mustard

    I agree and would like to add dipping a shrimp in cocktail sauce is vile.

    This is like arguing what toppings are best on a pizza. Everyone is different. Whatever tastes good to you is no business of anyone else.

    Pointless post.

    Mozzarella sticks with honey mustard??? Or even just mustard?? Brother you are insane.

    Marinara is often too sweet, I agree with you there, but boy do I love dipping a mozzarella stick in some good red sauce that just adds to the flavor of everything. YOU sir have a bad opinion.

    I agree. I think it’s gross to dip them in cold marinara. I maybe would feel different if heated. I prefer ranch but only if it’s good ranch. I eat them plain otherwise.

    As someone who loves Mustard and Mozzarella Sticks, this is wild. I eat mustard on my fries, but I would never dunk mozzarella sticks in mustard. Love em with marinara though!

    The marinara should be warm, injected and also on the side. Marinara everywhere! Legalize Marinara!

    Try dipping them in marinara and with the honey mustard. I know it sounds insane but me and my friends used to do this where we worked and it was shockingly good. Works with chicken tenders and fries as well.

    Mustard? Honey mustard?!! You’re the exact kind of person who dips pizza in ranch. Sacrilegious and reprehensible smh… We live in such a society.

    I stopped reading at mozzarella sticks/fried cheese because it’s 5 year old kid’s birthday party food.

    No marinara on my mozzarella sticks here. Ranch or garlic butter!

    You think marinara is too sweet, but then honey mustard?

    I can’t with you. Honey mustard is vile.

    Judging by the number of times I’ve been served fried mozz with watery-ass cold marinara I’m guessing OP’s opinion is unpopular.

    I’m guessing the mustard would be good. At least it would actually cling to the mozz stick.

    Ranch with mozz sticks or like a sweet spicy sauce.

    Marinara sauce is always disgusting

    Where on earth are you finding cold marinara being used for dipping?

    And secondly why mustard.

    Take the upvote.

    I avoid mozzarella sticks. Idek how people don’t choke and have to regurgitate the cheese sting that has been deep throated so far down it’s already half way through your intestines in the process of enjoying a cheese stick.

    One time we tried mozzarella sticks with caramal sauce for ice cream at a party. It was pretty good and we got others to try it too. People would say it’s weird but works.

    I helped a lady at the grocery store with her pork roll problem, and she told me in Buffalo they dip mozzarella sticks in a raspberry jelly type sauce. I’d try it.

    Just dropping in to say that I also think marinara sauce is pretty lame and that I also love dipping my mozzarella sticks in honey mustard. Keep on keepin’ on, fellow weirdo
