A tiramisu is a sweet lasagna. You have alternating layers of carb and sauce and cheese mixture of some kind.
A shepherd's pie is it's own unique thing as there are no alternating layers and the cheese layers are not mandatory.
The French parfait (different from what you're probably thinking) is a flipped shepherd's pie.
The American parfait is lasagna, as it's usually alternating layers of carb, fruits (with their sauce, often very jammy), and not cheese but a dairy mixture still.
According to Wikipedia, it’s frozen custard if you’re in France, but in America, it’s basically a layered dessert.
Which means this thing actually DOES follow most of the rules, it’s just failing at the dessert part. Unless you’re the type of person who considers pizza a vegetable, I guess.
One of the catering companies I worked for was in the running for a contract to provide food for 3 for-profit prisons. My boss showed me some of the menus he was working on for it and I nearly fell over laughing because he’s doing stuff like “Pan seared salmon with farro and grilled vegetable salad.” Apparently no one had told him the target food cost was 7 cents per meal.
That’s why you avoid them, and hope they’ll avoid you in return. It’s probably the least dickish thing you can do, and you can always just tell them you’ve been busy with other stuff if you do end up wanting to have contact again. Insults, offenses, betrayals, etc. are much harder to come back from.
