Lol!!!!

carrots+raisins=how can you go wrong. Jeez, you people are like a bunch of petulant children. Let me guess, you still eat cocoa puffs, Doritos and chef boy-r-dee too? Expand your palette, you might be surprised at the discoveries you make.

I'm not at all picky! For the record, I eat carrots, I eat raisins, but adding mayonnaise & sugar & other stuff so it gets soggy & gross is not what I call appetizing.

For the former the host can not complain because frankly she is being lame. Potlucks are a lame way to think you're being a hostess.

For the second, held at a neutral location, if a mob needs to eat (think football team, office members) than it is a neutral event and I think a potluck is fine.

Just don't throw a potluck and think you're a hostess.

Pies can be labor intensive but there are plenty of other things that aren't. I mean seriously, how hard is it to cook some pasta, add some sauce and cheese, throw it in the oven to let the flavors blend and call it a day. Dishes like that are easy and taste better the second day. No excuse not to put together something simple and homemade.

Carrot raisin salad is repulsive.

Then don't eat it dumb ass. The whole point of a potluck is that different people bring different things and there will be something for everyone. I have never once gone home w/ leftover carrot raisin salad and have had repeated requests for the recipe. You are clearly in the minority.

I think that stuff is disgusting too. I wouldn't eat it, but I'm sure some people would. I wouldn't even pretend to want any of it!

People are just being polite. I always tell people their gross salads are delicious because they seem to need the affirmation. Carrots and raisins salad sounds gross. And I live food.

You must hate Morocco

Yep, that is right. I hate Morocco just because I loathe carrot & raisin salad. Don't even ask how I feel about Mexico because I don't like Taco Bell.
