i don't know how slavs eat this garbage. cold salty jello with chunks of stuff in it. ugh!!!!!!!!

poutine. Sloppy canadian trash.

>>19445177
basque food from Bakersfield, CA

no idea if its better in its home country, but in Bakersfield its simply a lot of mediocre to bad dishes slammed together for some reason that is foul in both its gluttony and its quality

>>19445177
Beijing tripe
fucking tasteless bullshit slathered in sichuan chilli oil
>made me ALMOST as embarrassed to be ethnic chink as the fucking Cultural Revolution

>>19445177
ur mommas coochcie, it was so nasty I almost called in the secret police to interrogate her and you

>>19445198
The fuck, this looks like a random collection of shitty dishes that have nothing to do with each other.

>>19445177
>Oh, Berlin. What is Berlin? Berlin, as a city, brings nothing but shame to Germany on the international stage. [...] The city’s culinary performance is second-rate. Here, a sausage made from glued-together, meaty odds and ends adorned with ketchup and curry powder is sold as a culinary masterpiece. Hardly any reasonable person would consider a bratwurst with ketchup a recipe, let alone the holy grail of culinary arts. Yet, in their magnanimity, the rest of the republic lets the Berliner keep his delusion, not wanting to amplify his inferiority complex.

>>19445200
Looks pretty good to be honest.

>>19445177
The shittiest lasagna I ever had was in a high end restaurant in Rome. Go figure.

>>19445310
so I thought, but no
offal and sweetbreads should have a distinct taste of their own
otherwise you're just eating sauce
you might as well be eating tofu then for all it matters. fucking "impossible" textured soy fucking protein.

Peking duck was amazing though

i sentence you to one falafel with no drink

The worst cultural food I've had was Dutch food. Dutch cuisine is woeful. The gist of Dutch food is: sandwich and a glass of milk. Or kroketten, mustard and a glass of milk. Or some sausage and a glass of milk.

Or it's something + mashed potatoes. Just a grim cuisine.

>>19445317
Worst mexican food Ive ever had was in Mexico. Got very sick too

Went to mexico, went to a streetfood market & tried a hotdog, had mayonnaise on it, all the locals loved it though

>>19445177
Those cheap ones are just hot dogs smothered in ketchup. But if you get a properly made one, it's pretty good. Still overall it pales in comparison to their traditional sausages. Those are incredible with just a little mustard and some of their great bread.
t. American

>>19445405
based mex
they also put mayo on cob corn

>>19445177
Hotdog + Ketchup = childish
Hotdog + Ketchup + Tumric = national dish

>>19445177
Didn't like Korean or Fillipino because many dishes were oddly sweet. It's what happens when you're scrounging around American bases for ketchup so you don't starve to death I guess. Was also shocked when a block of instant noodles came out at a restaurant

>>19445382
>d*tch
>culture

>>19445177
I don’t get the hype over banh mi. Shit was dry and baguette bread just doesn’t work well for sandwiches.

>>19445953
I like banh mi's a lot but you're right that they're pretty dry usually. It's not the bread that's the problem, it's the lack of any kind of oil or sauce.

Indian food is the worst thing on this planet. Specifically their spinach curries. I had a saag lamb and palak paneer and they were awful. Just ground up veggies and cream and a ton of spices

>>19445177
I was at this Thai place and wanted to get something different from pad Thai or the usual curries so I tried squid salad. I didn’t even finish it. Way too sour and the squid was tasteless.

>>19445974
Veggies cream and spice sounds pretty nice tho

>>19445997
The dish I had looked just like this but with lamb. It was awful. I don't know how Indians can stand that type of food with its consistency. Even more alarming, I don't know how other people like it.

>>19445177
Quebecois food is literal "we have no food or money and its cold and dont want to die".

Heavy in fat and carbs and salt and not much else.

>>19445953
>>19445961
you must've had bad ones
the ones I had have a good helping of pork pate, which is where most of the fat comes from
maybe yours skimped on the pate, it's easily the most fiddly ingredient in the sandwich

>>19445177
Currywurst is great, I like it a lot.

>>19445435
>their traditional sausages. Those are incredible with just a little mustard and some of their great bread
Those are also great. Bratwurst mit Brötchen or whatever they call it.

>>19445974
The Indian food we get in Britain is good. Chicken Tikka Masala, Chicken Balti, stuff like that. And of course you need to have Bombay potato with it. And keema naan (naan bread with lamb in it). And you need to drink either a Cobra or Kingfisher beer with it, of course.

>>19446081
shit taste, québécois cuisine is pure soul

>>19445198
There are a number of similar restaurants serving this style of food up and down the Central Valley of California and in Nevada near Reno. Even their decor is similar. It's what muricans think is folksy European fare. I get plastered thanks to the cheap red table wine. According to people I've talked to, these places have been around since the 1950s.

not the worst, but ceviche was kinda shit. just really sour sushi but all you taste is lime

>>19445192
That's a good one. It's not bad, but I never want to eat much of it.

>>19445177
cajun food superior to fr*nch food

>>19445177
German food is the wurst.

>>19445177
these mexican carthweel chips . some people call them duros or chicharrones. they taste like nothing on their own and you have to add lime and hot suace to them but that just creates a big mess. just give me a bag of lime hot cheetoes instead.

>>19446617
I get it. Though they're wheat rather than corn, so different from Doritos in that way.

>>19445658
>Was also shocked when a block of instant noodles came out at a restaurant

a korean restaurant? there's a dish that comes from the war where koreans would salvage american rations and create a 'trash can' stew with random shit in it like that.

>>19446617
>chicharrones
That's slow roasted pork

>>19446625
I see you said Cheetos not Doritos. So, I'm wrong there.
They are called duros. Chicarrones are pork rinds.
Duros quality is directly related to how much you like chimoy.

>>19445198
nothing basque about this

>>19445953
baguette is very good for sandwiches, but not many countries can make a proper one

>>19446626
it's called "army stew" and the tradition is carried on because of their army rations
remember they still have conscription
for some odd reason it became popular with civilians

>>19445177
Cannot fucking stand Mexican rice dishes.

>>19445200
>calls himself chink
t. least self-hating diaspora

>>19447105
He's taking it back for the strength and solidarity of his race, anon. It's incredibly brave and also inspiring.

>>19445186
Have you tried it? Jello stays firm but with aspic it melts really quickly. It's like soup that's solid until you actually eat it.

>>19445198
>Bakersfield
There's your problem. Literally the worst city in Cali

>>19445198
>ragu bolognese served with spaghetti
>fake parmesan cheese
that alone should tell you that it's just a really shitty restaurant

>>19445177
fesenjoon, persian walnut pomegranate stew, looks like diarrhea, but some restaurants make it so sweet as well it tastes like you're eating straight corn syrup. ended up just eating the rice and leaving the whole bowl almost full once.

>>19447105
>>19447117
I've never really bothered about stuff like that
I actually found this funny at the time

>>19445177
Kurt, Central Asian cheese balls made of horse milk.

>>19445198
Not a Basque person but what that restaurant is serving is nothing like their food

No seafood on that table at all

>>19445186
With horseradish or mustard. If you get used to the texture, it's bretty gud.

>>19445953
>>19445961
If it's dry then they fucked up. Should have either pate like that other anon said or vietnamese mayo. I've never had a particularly dry one. And I think as long as the baguette isn't really tough or chewy it works great for the sandwich

>>19446626
Nope, normal ass noodle dish. Very common occurrence apparently.

Yeah this shit.
Paid $2000 fucking dollar flight for the exact same crap I get get at the mall for one trillionth off the price

>>19445186
>i don't know how slavs eat this garbage

Thank god I'm italian

>>19446194
I envy the abundance of Kebab in Europe.

>>19445177
You just had a bad version of that dish. Basically, a bad imitation for tourists. Happens all the time here in the UK with fish and chips. I gave up trying to find a decent version within reasonable distance of me. Just make my own. There are just so many nuances your'e not going to notice unless it's your own cultural cuisine. Best off asking someone who grew up eating it and they'll tell you what to look for.

>>19445177
Casserole from the United States. Makes you understand where the "goy slop" meme comes from.

>>19445198
Fuck me that reminds me of the midwest cooking.
Nothing sadder than a bland overcooked pork chop.

>>19445953
If the bread is dry, it's a shitty place.

My friends mom is mormon and she made us typical White Mormon from Utah / Idaho food. This is the worst thing I have ever eaten. The dish is called funeral potatoes.
It's like what I imagine future goyfeed will taste like. It's just a vague nothingness. It's like neating some food designed for a feeding tube.

>>19445198
What the hell, literally none of these dishes are Basque. Fucking Amerimutts.

>>19445382

>>19446261
Do the restaurants tend to serve farm to table type dishes? I imagine they do since the Central Valley has a dry mediterannean climate so they can at least imitate some spanish / italian cuisines properly

>>19449212
i am not european and dont get this pic

>>19447690
>>19447690
What was the shitty indian food you ate?

Cincinnati's spaghetti with skyline chili is some bullshit

>>19445177
>I was so fucking disappointed.
what were you expecting lol
>Its literally just a glorified hotdog smothered in fucking ketchup and sprinkled with some meh curry powder
you know you dont like a thing and you buy a thing and are sad haha

i never liked truffle

>>19448767
thats to vague because casserole vary more then any other dish

>>19448785
>vague nothingness.
do you not eat potatoes? what did you expect?
its sure as shit more flavorful then a baked potato

>>19449433
>Do the restaurants tend to serve farm to table type dishes?
Generally, yes. That's what they aim for.

>>19445198
Bakersfield is a complete meth infested shithole. Maybe I'd trust some Mexican food out there bit would never go to a restaurant expecting a good experience

>>19445953
Think this depends on the restro but I'm not an expert on em.

>>19445198

This looks like 5 star gourmet food from England

>sichuan chilli oil

bro.... why would you eat the gutter oil

>>19445177
I once ordered an oyster omelet from a very traditional Chinese place, assuming it was an omelet served with oyster sauce at worst but more likely some kind of pancake served in oyster sauce with "omelet" being a bit of a cheeky mistranslation. Then when I picked it up and got home I realized the folly of my ways. It was an omelet with actual oysters cooked straight into it, served with some sauce on the side. I decided to give it a go, thinking hey, it couldn't be that bad, right?

At first it tasted fine, but every bite somehow got worse. Half-way through I had to stop because I started to genuinely gag. I was sweating like crazy, my face was pale. A few hours later I was shitting and vomiting nonstop, like continual streams out of both ends.

What MOTHERFUCKER thought cooking OYSTERS into and OMELET was a good idea? Fuck you. Fuck you. This is a real fucking dish from China and fuck you. Fuck whatever dumbass punkass motherfucker came up with that dish. Fuck you for giving me food poisoning. Fuck you for assuredly giving every motherfucker that ever tried this shit food poisoning. Fuck you in your ancestral grave.

>>19449885
LMFAO came to post this. Shittiest food I’ve ever ate was in London.

>>19445658
>It's what happens when you're scrounging around American bases for ketchup so you don't starve to death I guess
true never thought about it this way

Catfish in Georgia is pretty lame, my family there thinks it's all exciting and I'm like this shit sucks.
They mean well but it still sucks.

>>19449905
The Chinese import tons of oysters from the PNW because their oceans have full of nuke test residue and melamine milk effluent. What do they do with oysters they catch? Can and export them.

>>19449922
Catfish eat mud. You have to soak the fish for a whole day to get the mud taste out. But bottom feeders in general are trash fish no one is meant to eat

>>19449212

>>19449485
American "education"

I made currywurst once, followed a recipe for the sauce and served it with chips I got from a fish and chip shop
I thought it was great honestly
For me it was a carrot halwa and gazpacho made with home grown tomatoes

>>19445186
Oh, meat jello is a special kind of hell. It makes me shudder just thinking about it. This is definitely white people's worst culinary crime.

>>19445397
Ah yes, mexican food is pretty shite. To be fair, the other Central American countries do way better than Mexico, and even further south Brazil has some really good shit. But Mexico? Nah man, shit's rank. Must be the cartels or something holding them back.

This in bong land had to try it fish tasted like nothing totally bland and the chips were soggy

>>19445953
Baguette is primarily used for poboys, and when properly made they are fantastic. You can ape it into a hogie roll, but baguette is the right way to do it.

But yeah, banh mi looks like a crap sandwich, never tried one.

>>19445974
Indian food is fine, when you remove the poo and dysentery from it. Naan is fantastic.

But OG Indian food is definitely rank and will make you poo on the side of the road.

>>19446922
Mandatory service. Literally everyone knows army stew because everyone knows a soldier because of conscription. So not exactly "popular" more house hold name. And it gets videoed a bunch.

It would be like all males in the US get conscripted and all US citizens are familiar with runny eggs because all males know what it is from service and tell their relations about it. Then runny eggs becomes a national dish because everyone has experienced it or knows about it.

>>19447645
Did you really spend $2k for cucumbers and corn? You are a brainlet and should be separated from your money as soon as possible so we can remove you from the gene pool.

I paid for super fucking rare firefly squid that show up for 2 weeks out of the year, and even then I STILL didn't pay anywhere near that amount. For $2k I expect a fucking blow job while I am eating. I'd get it if it was a floofy 30 course michalin star dinner, but $2k for basic bitch sushi really rustles my jimmies.

>>19450517
You have to find a good chippy in a seaside town. The average fish and chips is not going to blow you away.

>>19449837
I imagine those restaurants are probably higher end. I'm a Califag and whenever I eat in the central valley im on a road trip and and want to get to my destination so i always eat at some boomer fartbox diner that definitely does NOT get local produce from the central valley.

^link related is a cafe i've been to in San Francisco that is genuinely farm to table. Inspired by North African mediterranean cuisine, since they source food from mediterannean-type farmlands inland, like farms near Tracy / modesto. Also have food trucks that try to get local farms to your table

>>19450517
the best seafood I ever had was from a chippy right on the dock in a fishing village
>>19450579 is right, it really do be like that

>>19449905
>being this faggy over a rotten oyster
oyster omelettes are great tho
try it when you're in Singapore, they have better quality control there

>>19450558
I think it's just the vagaries of social media
army stew existed decades before some mong did a mukbang on Instagram and everyone dived into it
the US equivalent is probably MRE reviews, which again, was around for years before it got a little bit more popular - not as big as army stew of course

>>19450575
of course he didn't
for starters, I've never seen a high-end omakase serve fucking CORN

>>19445177
that was also my take on currywurst exactly, OP

behold

>>19450575
>>19447683
>>19447687
>>19451272
I probably need to explain myself. Yes I spent $2000. Probably a little more but I’m feeling forgiving of myself so I’m rounding down.
It wasn’t all spent on the food technically, I’m also including the airfare and hotel accommodations, as well as the erotic massage, but it was all for the food so yes I spinet that much in food.
I’m sire most people here would do the same as there’s no point eating ethnic food if you aren’t surrounded by and served by the people of that ethnicity.
Also there is more than just ‘fucking corn’ there’s also cucumber slices and salmon with a dollop of ketchup, my host wanted me to have the real deal but I was able to add my aside to help the flavour because otherwise I’m just eating rice and seaweed.

>>19451389
>dollop of ketchup
>sushi
Jesus fucking christ anon

>>19451393
We’ll I don’t want to go that far but the server nearly punched me when I started grinding my salt shaker on it.
Protocol, always take your own seasonings if you’re going to other ethnicity areas, you need to be able to control what enters your body and if you need to adjust their taste to better suit your needs then don’t be afraid to stand up for your rights

>>19445177
You cannot buy a good one one tourist places over here. That time has gone. Even some only insiders know are bad because the sausage makers are gone or "under new management". But Currywurst itself is only a marketing hype like nearly every product see in the normie media.

>>19448767
Homemade casserole is the opposite of goyslop.
A Big Mac is goyslop.

>>19445177
Maybe bøfsandwich. Basically a hamburger which is ruined by turning it into a wet mess by dousing it in gravy.

Had fish lungs in an "upscale" chinese restro. I can't even find a picture of it. This is maw but it's not the same.

>>19447645
Sushi is one thing, but the way japs get up about this shit is fucking mad sometimes. It's just fucking rice. Rice. It's not some stroke of culinary genius. It's just fucking rice.

>>19445177
Thank you. Currywurst is so bad but people act like it’s some delicacy and you’re a pleb if you don’t like it.

>>19445953
whoever made it for you forgot to put pate or mayo on it. also the veg should be heavily pickled and dripping vinegar.

>>19451397
im pretty sure the entire country declared a national holiday on the day that you flew home

Haha nice try but Theres clearly Otho g between aged day and mountain day.
Plus my hosts, and their neighbours, insisted on taking me to the airport and seeing me off. That’s a sign of respect as they wanted to make sure I got on the place safely to return.

I mean the hotel wasn’t that much but ok, that’s why I just summed everything up

>>19451607
>Plus my hosts, and their neighbours, insisted on taking me to the airport and seeing me off. That’s a sign of respect

>>19447645
>$2k flight
You fucking retard

>>19451608
Think what you want buy they said that I was welcome to come back anytime I wanted. On my last day I overheard their cute daughter, who’s 19 and we went on a date as she showed me around the city with her friends, she said “Kare wa tsui ni satte iku”.
This means “he’s really leaving?” She was upset because I was going.

>>19451613
>I’m also including the airfare and hotel accommodations, as well as the erotic massage
Yeah I think I know where most of the 2k went.

Tororo. Had it while in Japan.
It's basically a paste made from a native tuber that looks and feels like snot, but it tastes even worse.
And then they have the audacity to put it on plain rice, as though this somehow makes either taste better

>>19451617
>Kare wa tsui ni satte iku

this is high level bait but im laughing anyway

>>19451673
I probably just phonetically misspelled it. She had tears in her eyes and couldn’t look at me on the entire car trip to the airport. You might call it bait but I was the one living in her home, if you get my drift.nnav8

>>19449922
catfish can be really good but usually its really bad.
the only times i've ever had good catfish was from some sketchy shacks on the edge of the water

i'll tell you what, anon, you probably did bless that poor japanese family with some much-needed context about the state of the american male.

Currywurst is a great food to eat when you're leaving the bar or between bars.

Ahh Fancy Feast, my cat loves this shit.

>>19450439
/pol/shit

>>19447491
Isnt that like pure survival food since it stays good forever?

Wdym currywurst is absolutely bussin

>>19451517
All Japanese food is like this. It's alright but nothing to write home about. The litmus test for if food is actually good or not is to ask yourself
>If I served this to someone and told them it was British, would they still like it?

>>19450517
It's pretty much peasant fast food from the coast, very filling but not particularly healthy or nutritious.
>>19447645
Sushi is extremely disappointing.

The dutch are good at cheating money from people.

>>19452917
They don't cheat people. They just want you to pay for the product you take.
You come to my home and drink a glass of water you better Tikkie me a few cents for it.

>>19449485
The Dutch are well known misers and bottom tier cooks. Yuri is trying to capitalize on that without knowing wtf is going on either.

You now realize ~90% of dishes you can buy are simply ridiculously far from the homemade original from which it gained its appreciation.
If a restaurant made it for an affordable price it's going to be shit unless it's fool proof stuff like deep-fried potatoes and pasta.
It's the same shit with fruit and vegetables people buy off season or simply got unlucky getting a flavorless turd in the store. It happens all the time with stuff I 100% know is delicious when the ingredients align.

>>19445198
Who's the girl? Sister? Cousin? Coworker?

>>19446617
You got them from white people didn't you

>>19445198
kek this reminds me of eating in Western restaurants in Indonesia or Chinese restaurants in France. People that live there enjoy this localization of ethnic food, it works. I don't really get what is Basque about this though, is it popular to style things as such in America?

>>19445382
What about all the fusion food they made with their old colonies like Indonesia? As a trash food example I really enjoyed the vending machines that sold satay sauce fries. Cheap as fuck and tasty.

>I don’t get the hype over banh mi
For me it's just a moderately good sandwich when you want a quick lunch. Tends to be decent no matter where you get it, not much more to say. Are there really faggots acting like it's something amazing?

>>19445177
Krautfag here. I also think that Currywurst is overrated bullshit. Nice dubs btw

>>19447236
Place I went to in Baku used quince juice to sweeten it a bit and make it look more appealing, then you got this rockin plov with it too. It was probably one of the most delicious things I've ever had.

How else are you supposed to eat a pizza when they don't cut it into slices?
I have a little black book where I document which American pizzerias do exactly that, and I never return to those places. I'm not paying a premium to do their job for them.

Anything out of Europe or Japan. Trash tier cuisines all the way through.

>>19445186
Holodets is bretty good, but you actually need a real, broth-based one. Adding store-bought gelatin just makes the end result flavourless.

Aspic us hardly only a slav food

French fries with mayo is fucking disgusting
Don't care if the Belgians invented them, shit is still terrible

>>19458636
This. If you ever made a high collagen broth out of chicken feet or wings, oxtail, or beef tendons, then put it in the fridge, you have made holodets. The only thing separating that from purpose-made holodets are suspended pieces of meat, there is nothing more to it.

Is it actually good? I don't think anyone thinks it's amazing, it's more of a novelty. It can be a nice savory snack on a hot summer day.

>>19458643
your piss-flavored licorice fucking sucks

Chitlins. Literally smells like feces and has no more flavor than a sausage casing, which is to say very, very little. But supposedly American blacks invented it so it's held up as a respected cultural relic in the US
>you're supposed to soak them first
You can spend 12 hours washing, rinsing, and soaking and it's still gonna smell of feces (so is your whole kitchen). People making this in the "traditional" way are literally eating poop. The only way to mitigate the smell is through chemical treatment (people literally soak in bleach) but that only masks the smell and doesn't remove the poo.
>>19451517
Nothing amazing but it's not bad either. If you're mad about sushi rice and seaweed when chitlins exist then you got problems

Chippy chips are traditionaly soggy u cretin. And you should make sure it's cod or haddock if it's not specified. Order curry sauce as well but just the regular one not the fancy flavor or with raisins In it.

There are better things out there but it is 'cheap' takeaway food. I prefer a pie or butty but fish and chips has it's place.

Never understood currywurst, either. Germs have so many good options for basic bitch food, especially sausage, and they end up going for that? For me, it's gyros. Gyros can be great, but out here almost all they gyro places are run by arabs that insist on making them doner kebab or whatever, with the giant rotating packed meat slabs, and charging the same sorts of prices as places that actually grill their cheap cuts of marinated meat with some dignity. They still tend to make some great hummus and falafel, at least.

Bratwurst is fine if you get a good one. Schnitzel however?

Schnitzel is the biggest fucking DRECK ever conceived. It's breading a tiny piece of meat and MORE FUCKING BREADING.
The german goes absolutely bananas for this shit. Schnitzel and Leberkäs. Germans don't know how to fucking eat.
Any good german recipe is bavarian or from austria. There is no good food here.

pimento cheese i had it from a 5 star restaurant and it was still bad
shrimp and grits isn’t good either. grits on their own arent even that great to begin with, and shrimp doesn’t go with it at all making it even worse. possibly two of the worst southern foods

Now all go ahead and say "yeah these Americans with there cinnamon sausages and Chipotle. And some they the had even sliced apples on it. Tried it. It's shit. Though it would be cultural food. American cinnamon Chipotle sausage with apples culture food is gsrbage" (but that's not the truth, just a idiot made idot food wich not represent your country)
Would you be feel represented? As an American? Wouldn't you defend that obviously wrong picture of the food culture of your country? Or defeat?

as an adult I didn't seek this out ever

however as a kid and growing up as a Romanian I know for a fact it is a dish that makes use of weird texture meats like tongue, really its the only weird meat meal

you sacrifice the pig at around x-mas, you make use of all you can, and shit like the tongue is nasty as fuck so you shred it

as a kid I could not enjoy the different textures and would only pick out the gelatin

the gelatin, with real broth from the bones and the meat of the pig, and with lots of garlic flavour in the end food, and adding some horseradish, makes it very very tasty, like a solid tasty stew with a lot of flavour, the meat is not so flavorfull but the broth based gelatin is

kind of like the gelatin from spammed meat, to me its the most tasty part

also it helps because it lasts for a while in the fridge when done

I would probably eat this thing again over a blood sausage, but probably will never eat it ever again as it is meat scraps in tasty gelatin

>>19445177

> I've seen Germans swear by it all the time, but when I tried it I was so fucking disappointed.
Its literally just a glorified hotdog smothered in fucking ketchup and sprinkled with some meh curry powder... fucking trash

OP, those Germans were likely jesting and just trying to get you to eat that trash.

Currywurst is an old fashioned version of absolute garbage, drunk food. It was displaced since a while mostly by Döner etc, Burgers, Asian fast food.

However it has retained its’ status as junk food for tourists, national or international, and should be treated as nothing else.

>>19469143

After church, my grandparents used to take me to some place with windmills, and the interior was cool (as a kid) but yeah the food was just subpar at any of these overpriced themed restaurants in the valley. There is a large Dutch population that settled there. And I think it stems from that, but by now they are all 4th gen dairy farmers.

How the fuck does currywurst even become a German thing? I can see how doner is basically their national food now, they've always had lots of turks and shit, but were there ever many Pajeets and stuff in Germany? How the fuck would curry become popular out of nowhere? Seems like it should be a bong food anyway

>>19463030

>>19470435
People don't realize that curry is to flavoring what italian food is to cheesy dishes. Indian seasonings and herbs are the gold standard for flavoring across a lot of the world. Heard of the East India company?

>>19445198
anon, I just want you to know, I looked up this restaurant from your picture. This place is a fucking hellscape, how do you people live with yourselves?

>>19470711
Eh, it's turmeric coriander and cumin with whatever other spices. Often ones not native to India, like chili peppers. There's plenty of spice mixes that are just as good. Curry powder is different from garam masala, which it is derived from. Garam masala is distinctly Indian. Curry is just a name given to different, sometimes vaguely, related spice mixes. I'm not a fan of the more fragrant spices in savory food, like cinnamon, so I'm often disappointed. Curry-like dishes have been developed in similar ways by many cultures in the form of spiced gravy. The novelty and pungent qualities of the spices, along with their high price and status, had more to do with the popularity historically than anything else.

Indians got lucky with their herbs and spices. Just plain luck. Central Americans were similarly lucky. Chili, chocolate, vanilla, tomatoes. Then Europeans, being more militarily advanced, just took all this shit and made it theirs. Globalization of ideas. Man I'm stoned as fuck. I love Sundays.

>>19461044
pretty bad
would probably order tongue & tomato while slamming down brandy

>>19470711
Curry powder is British, going back centuries. The Germans probably got it from across the channel.
>>19470765
Garam masala has all the spices in curry powder (minus turmeric and plus a few more), except theyre toasted. That give it a more subtle, earthy flavor, so youre not hit with strong cinnamon flavor or any other individual spice.

>>19470435
It's just spices and everybody can use them. German sausages also contain exotic ones like mace, nutmeg, coriander, cardamom, ginger, allspice or cloves.

>Currywurst is an old fashioned version of absolute garbage
This is actually true, and I say that as a currywurst-eating German. Currywurst first became popular after the end of WW2, when food was in short supply. The spicy sauce allowed vendors to use subpar or expired meat (and even cheap fillers like sawdust) because it would mask the taste.

Any tard on here with your opinion just hasn't had a good one. Live near a Viet community in the US and get them for a few bucks, or in Vietnam for even less, when they're freshly made and they are amazing. Was sad when moved back to Japan and left them behind, but the boom in Viets on slave visas has been a boon for the Banh Mi scene. Place near me makes a killer version.

I never said curry powder is Indian, but curry powder is quite obviously based on Indian flavors. Indian flavors are generally the gold standard for such foods. Curry powder specifically is an adaption of these Indian flavors to conveniently use for flavor to actually make the food taste like something that isn’t just salt

No, he is wrong; he might as well say that barbecue ribs are held up as a respected cultural relic in the US because it's soul food
