Stop it, you know what I mean. I’m talking European colonials which formed the basis for the modern US, even if it shouldn’t be that way. They stole Native American food too. The combination of these things formed the basis of “American” cuisine, but it wasn’t long ago in a historical sense.

That’s not normal, and they should be ashamed. The normal hot sauce is more like a chili crisp.

I also don’t find many places near me that have the mystery meat on the spindle. That’s a prerequisite. I also don’t know what’s in the “scharf” sauce but it seems hard to find too.

Edit

I have to assume that in Germany, there is one or a couple food distributors who sell all the ingredients, since they’re pretty consistent through all the independent shops. Why don’t they just export everywhere?!

Every culture takes/mixes foods from other cultures and makes it their own. I think the difference with the US is that there isn’t an ancient history to form a basis.

I miss German döner so much. It’s just not right elsewhere, and I can’t understand why.

That’s where he draws the line on ethics… for everyone else.

I do miss the breadth (heh) of reddit.

Ship of Theseus -> Nihilism -> Bargaining and acceptance. Quite the ride!

imagine AOC takes over the government and going after anybody saying something positive about Trump.

Yeah that’s not gonna happen. I get what you mean, but she’s not some despotic arch-trump.

He was a massive piece of shit, but he created the EPA. Think that could happen these days?

For me it just feels like food designed to make you sick, either because you’re compelled to eat too much or because it’s sooooo unnatural.

McDonald’s has been specifically engineered for over half a century to be as pleasing and addictive as possible, by a huge corporation who hires legions of scientists in various disciplines to achieve that singular goal.

In my mind, it’s akin to smoking: the first few times you try it, it’s gross; after that, it’s a dopamine hit that’s easy to become reliant upon.

And yet the cat has no problem refusing our bounty or telling us to fuck off. This intimidates the Gods.

My guess is that since Ring has a history of well-known collaborations with police and ICE, they wanted to re-frame their evil surveillance network as a way to save a puppy. Instead, lots of uninformed normies suddenly realized what those cameras are capable of, and had a huge negative reaction given the state of things.

It’s not a four-cycle engine. It is a four-stroke engine: each piston makes four strokes each complete engine cycle.
