@VD15 @quad @thisjayx @SuperDicq Americans liberate themselves from English rule, immediately they start eating hamburgers and become obese.

@ergo @VD15 @quad @thisjayx Brits are also hilariously obese when compared to the rest of Europe. They have the worst tasting food and still manage to become obese.

@SuperDicq @VD15 @quad @thisjayx when I was a kid my highschool class went to England and we stayed for 2 weeks there, I only ate McDonald's and gas station pizza because the food prepared by the woman of the house I was at was so fucking shit.

Also her son lived in the attic and would smash the walls on soccer game day and yell.

@SuperDicq @VD15 @quad @thisjayx I'm European but I say soccer because it is a more useful word since it only applies to one sport instead of 2.

I wish I was American so I could have money and not live surrounded by communists

@ergo @VD15 @quad @thisjayx Using McDonald’s to avoid British cuisine is also very American behavior.

There is more edible food in Britain but it is all foreign. Just look for falafel, kebab, asian takeout, indian food, etc. This stuff is all fine in Britain.

@SuperDicq @quad @thisjayx @ergo IDK why everyone's pretending they're somehow above a delectable sausage roll.

@ergo @VD15 @quad @thisjayx Yeah ok sure let’s die from diabetes from ultra processed McDonald’s foods instead of eating actual fresh ingredients because muh skin color. Very reasonable.

@VD15 @quad @thisjayx @ergo This stuff lowkey kinda sucks and if I wanted to eat fatty baked goods we do it much better in the Netherlands.

Even frikandelbroodje is better than the Gregg’s sausage roll.

@SuperDicq @VD15 @quad @thisjayx @ergo McDonalds does in fact use somewhat fresh ingredients and many items of the menu aren't ultraprocessed - better than most fast food restaurants even.

@quad @thisjayx @SuperDicq @VD15 the British bitch that was cooking for me couldn't even make a sandwich right, she put some white thing in it, I think it was mayonnaise or something.

Give me cheese and ham

No fucking cum sauce

@ergo @thisjayx @SuperDicq @VD15 sure it wasn't "gravy". Because unlike every other country where gravy tends to be brown-ish, British "gravy" looks like cum

> Unlike every other country

Gravy here is also brown. We literally invented the stuff.

Picrel is probably white gravy, which is basically just a roux.

@ergo @quad @thisjayx @SuperDicq @VD15 *proprietary

The old coca-cola recipe has been long available and the current recipe is now available; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coca-Cola_formula?useskin=monobook#LabCoatz_recipe (wow that's a lot of proprietary language in the article).

Regardless, it's disgusting slop - why anyone would drink it escapes me.

@VD15 @thisjayx @SuperDicq @ergo I dunno man, I've never had gravy. Here in Norway we typically just use straight meat juices (sjy) with minimal stuff added.

If we use a sauce it's a generic brown sauce, which is basically just a roux with no trace of meat.

@VD15 @SuperDicq @ergo @thisjayx Which I guess technically is "gravy" as per the dictionary. But when everyone else online says "gravy" they seem to imply that something has been added to make a thick sauce

@quad @thisjayx @SuperDicq @ergo There's apparently a list of different types of gravy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravy#Types

I think you're on about onion gravy. Which we also have, or at least it was always what we had at christmas. For some reason the guy who took the photo for the wikipedia page has never heard of "white balance"

@SuperDicq @georgia @quad @thisjayx @ergo Can't personally relate, but I think it's completely understandable to have objections to ingesting just about anything that comes out of another person's body.

@ergo @quad @thisjayx @SuperDicq @VD15 I like my water without an excess of proprietary microplastics and arsenic, so I don't drink bottled water.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiji_Water?useskin=monobook#Marketing
>Fiji Water reportedly contained 6.31 micrograms of arsenic per litre

You also have to be insane to pay more for water than diesel.

@VD15 @thisjayx @SuperDicq @ergo No. If you just go to the language selector and select "Norwegian" you get sent to the page for "Sjy". Which is just meat juices.

We can make "Sjysaus" which is basically when you thicken it up with something to make a sauce, which I assume is the closest thing we have to gravy. But I don't think people actually make it that often, we mostly just "brunsaus" (lit. "Brown sauce") which is just a browned and thickened roux. Basically an espagnole, without adding any stock.

@Suiseiseki @ergo @quad @thisjayx @VD15 Your tap water probably contains less plastics and it comes free with the taxes that you already have to pay anyway. Just drink tap water.

@Suiseiseki @quad @thisjayx @SuperDicq @VD15 @ergo We had this discussion before. All water is proprietary because you never can have 100% accurate knowledge of what it contains and thus don't have its source code. And neither is 100% pure dihydrogen monoxide possible to create.

@SuperDicq @VD15 @quad @thisjayx @ergo The water is always proprietary, even though it should be free.

The taxes you pay only go to the government and their buddies - anything actually useful and needed is funded by money printing.

@phnt @quad @thisjayx @SuperDicq @VD15 @ergo If you burn hydrogen, you get H₂O and non-significant amounts of H₃O and OH and some leftover O₂ and H₂, but that's 100% pure water, as that's what water is composed of.

Although, whatever is in your storage vessel and the atmosphere will then immediately start dissolving into the water, which is possible to measure.
