Ok so I appreciate everyone’s explanation of the term dirty food here is my take. I am in Canada and work at a Google 5 star restaurant. Have been in the bizz for 30 years. We still use the term in the industry but if it is used outside the industry I can only say my friends and coworkers’ friends also use it. It describes the type of food that makes you pop in awe. You see things put together slathered in out of the ordinary combinations, usually very greasy, cheesy, looks like fast food but takes a lot of work and steps and time to make but will make you excited, mouthwatering and eager to try. Nowhere near healthy as known by any Doctors. An example of this is my creation of; 12 slices of cheese piled, cut the middle out with a cookie cutter then wrap in bacon, drag in batter, deep fry, you now have a cheese bacon donut, fill the middle hole with ground seasoned beef and top with pickles, tomato and chopped lettuce and drizzle with roasted garlic mayo and sriracha, enjoy.
