why did lucy wrench me for mac and cheese :(

@georgia haters thats all

@georgia mac and cheese is the absolute worst dish imaginable

@lucy oh I totally forgot that you hold that opinion

@lucy @georgia #blocked

@georgia it's funny that Käsespätzle is basically german mac and cheese, and somehow despite being german it's actually better than mac and cheese. that's how low im rating mac and cheese smh.

@lucy@netzsphaere.xyz @georgia@netzsphaere.xyz kill yourself

@anemone @georgia no u

@lucy@netzsphaere.xyz @georgia@netzsphaere.xyz german food is good

@lucy @georgia I like mac and cheese, but only made from scratch. (Dried macaroni is fine, of course.)

@anemone @lucy Ive only had pork shnitzel and I didn't like it but I don't like pork. oh I also had leberwurst and I didn't like it either. lol

@anemone @georgia rare cases most is pretty terrible tbh. german bread is next level tho.

@lucy @georgia mac and cheese is actually peak
make pasta in your favorite shape
make a bechamel and add your favorite cheeses
toast some panko on butter
add panko on top of pasta and bake

@lucy@netzsphaere.xyz @georgia@netzsphaere.xyz you guys have good sausages

@anemone @georgia @lucy you need to stop with the bad takes anemone

@anemone @georgia @lucy faggot

@meso@the.asbestos.cafe @georgia@netzsphaere.xyz @lucy@netzsphaere.xyz you're gayer than i am

@anemone @georgia i don't like meat so i don't understand what's so special about them

@anemone @georgia also nice reference

@lucy @anemone @georgia also german beer--personally I'm a fan of franziskaner

@genmaicha @anemone @georgia i like some local types but im a fan of czech and english beer. still better than anything you'd find in the US ig

@lucy @anemone @georgia the best US beer I've tried is Sam Adams, but my ultimate favorite is Guinness, which is of course from Ireland

@genmaicha@stereophonic.space @lucy@netzsphaere.xyz @georgia@netzsphaere.xyz have you drank anything that's not mass market swill?

@lucy @anemone @georgia that being said, in America there are plenty of stores where you can get specialty imported beer

@anemone @georgia @lucy no cuz I don't drink that much

@anemone @genmaicha @lucy my favorite beer is an Indian beer (not an IPA) called Taj Mahal

@genmaicha@stereophonic.space @georgia@netzsphaere.xyz @lucy@netzsphaere.xyz fair

@anemone @georgia @lucy now if we were talking about tea, on the other hand, I am very much a snob

@genmaicha@stereophonic.space @georgia@netzsphaere.xyz @lucy@netzsphaere.xyz tea is better than beer

@genmaicha @anemone @georgia i don't like when beer is too bitter, most local types are kinda sweet (without sugar added, just how they brew it) and somehow still somewhat high alc content

@lucy@netzsphaere.xyz @genmaicha@stereophonic.space @georgia@netzsphaere.xyz sour beer is the only good kind of beer imo

@anemone @genmaicha @lucy I love sours

@georgia @anemone @genmaicha indian? not IPA? that's rare

I remember trying Herring at a cafe in Jena. My friend said it was a pretty traditional Thuringia fish/meal ... was .. not that great. Kinda bland yet tolerable. I dated a girl who really liked that raw pork sandwich .. Gehacktes Brotien? Is that right? It was okay. It doesn't really taste like anything though and I hated the raw pork getting stuck in my teeth.

Chicken Schnitzel is nice, but it's pretty much Australian Chicken Parma without the sauce.

Also I wasn't a big "bread for breakfast" person back then and the only bacon I could find was the thin stuff at Aldi or the overpriced/over-salted stuff at the butcher.

oh but I did like those big blocks of cheese you put on the grill. I think it's just a large chunk of Halloumi? I assume that's what it was because I don't know of any other cheese that grills that way.

@djsumdog @anemone @georgia > east germany
yeah... im glad i don't live there
hack/gehacktes/mett on buns is common where im from, it's super weird lol.

@lucy @djsumdog @anemone WHAT AM I LOOKING AT

It looks cute ... and .. raw...

@georgia @djsumdog @anemone @lucy apparently they eat something akin to this in wisconsin too

@georgia @anemone @djsumdog mett is ground-up meat, 50/50 beef and pork usually. it's put on a bun, with diced raw onions, salt and pepper.
the picture is a play on words I'd rather not translate lol.

@genmaicha @djsumdog @anemone @georgia germans smh

@djsumdog @anemone @georgia and yes, it's eaten raw, and it's not something rare or obscure either

@lucy @djsumdog @anemone is it tasty?

I was trying to figure out the wordplay and looked up hedgehog and saw that one translation was "igel" and now igel/hedgehog hunter makes so much more sense!!! .. I miss igel .. I hope he has a better life after leaving fedi

@djsumdog @anemone @lucy hes back on fedi under the name teto and now hes really racist

@georgia @anemone @djsumdog i don't like meat. tbh it tastes very different, it tastes more like cooked meat but more... mild ig?

@djsumdog @lucy @anemone @georgia

Igel is still here, goes by that anime Tato or whatever, red hair.

@djsumdog @anemone @georgia the meal is known as "Mettigel", mett being that type of ground up raw meat

@anemone @georgia @lucy

Finally, a good post.

@lucy @georgia @anemone @djsumdog yeah the taste is… bland. which is why it’s usually full of salt, pepper and onions

@cvnt @anemone @lucy moth spotted

@georgia @anemone @lucy leberwurst is goated im sorry

@georgia @djsumdog @anemone teto/igel is insane

@unmind @anemone @lucy I dont like pork smdh its that Jew in me

@lucy@netzsphaere.xyz @georgia@netzsphaere.xyz @djsumdog@djsumdog.com seems like the kind of guy who should commit suicide tbh

@lucy @georgia @anemone @djsumdog on its own it’s so bland it might be british

@georgia @unmind @anemone based, pork is bottom tier

@anemone @georgia @djsumdog he lives like 2h away from me :3

@lucy @anemone @unmind I love beef but its a no-no for that Hindu in me

@georgia @anemone @unmind cows are so adorable i love them

@georgia @anemone @lucy i dont like pork in general but leberwurst i ate a lot as a kid cuz my dad is just an extremely german coded man and its nostalgic and also tasty imo

@lucy @anemone @unmind theyre cuddly too.

@georgia @anemone @lucy hindus can eat beef the beef thing is just brahmin centrism

@unmind @anemone @georgia pork is just one thing in leberworst. it's got liver in it too, literally in its name.

@lucy @anemone @georgia i know, is it not pork liver? when i was a kid we just called it liver sausage in english

@unmind @anemone @lucy Hindus can eat meat period but meat is still tamasic and so yogis shouldn't eat it. As an aspiring yogi I have to avoid himsa as much as possible.

@unmind @anemone @georgia liver sausage is a direct translation of leberwurst and yes? and yes it is

@unmind @anemone @lucy I thought it was pork liver too. chicken liver meanwhile... sublime.

@lucy@netzsphaere.xyz @georgia@netzsphaere.xyz @djsumdog@djsumdog.com seems like the kind of guy you should suicide

@lucy @unmind @anemone @georgia leberwurst on some of the darker german breads is actually great

like, what i usually bake with mixed wheat/rye/spelt flour, linseed and sunflower seeds that’s all fluffy inside but has a nice crust? match made in heaven, i really liked that before i quit meat

@mia @unmind @anemone @lucy you're a vegetarian too? I dig it. I'm going back to being a vegan in 2 months ish

@mia @georgia @unmind @anemone it's over

@georgia @unmind @anemone @lucy yep haven’t had meat in 4 years. definitely been good for my health lol

@s8n @anemone @mia @lucy @unmind nah I'm never eating a steak again I just became a pescatarian for a little while.

@lucy @anemone @georgia

german bread is next level

THIS. like you guys have no idea. you NEED to start growing more diverse crops

@mia @anemone @lucy monoculture lyfe

@mia @georgia @anemone rye is low-yield and only resisting the colder climates really. ig that's mostly about geography.

@lucy @georgia @anemone could grow it in canaderp i guess

@mia @anemone @lucy let's annex Canada for better bread

@georgia @mia @anemone i did like those weird cinamon bagels i had in boston tho.
