probably thousand island dressing with a bunch of sugar.

>>5465208
thousand island or some weird mixture of ketchup, mayo, mustard, and relish

>>5465208
Americans.

butter

I once saw a bag of potato chips flavored "American Cream"
this was in Germany
I looked it up and I think the flavor was actually just honey mustard or something like that

Looks like mac sauce. Thousand island, mayo, relish, and some other stuff.

>>5465208
wait wut. american is a flavor? that has to be fake

>>5465233
you cloud be right. didnt heinz and mcDs have a falling out. so no heinz is selling mac sauce.

This is embarrassing, thanks Heinz. Do they sell this in the U.S. or is it in Europe? I've never seen it.

It's probably like big mac sauce. Mix of mayo, ketchup, mustard, relish, and probably some Worcestershire sauce, spices and some sugar.

your face when it tastes like chick fil a sauce

>>5465237
It tastes like freedom.

AMERICAAAAAHHHH

>>5465208
Freedom.

>>5465208
Tastes like freedom you mudslime.

>>5465208
Lard mixed with HFCS.

Have some "American style" products from Germany. This is literally what most people think Americans eat everyday.

Let's start off with some ready made pancakes.

>>5465342
Next up: Ready made popcorn.

>>5465208
Like french dressing, just with extra sugar and bbq seasoning.

Tastes like preservatives? More like LIBERTYves

>>5465342
>This is literally what most people think Americans eat everyday.

That's okay. We think most Germans are effete playboys dancing in their nightclubs, or secret Nazis. Probably both.

>>5465350
>>5465342
No wonder Euros always make fun of our food

FINALLY: Ketchup and mustard TOGETHER in ONE container!

>>5465361
Tastes like generic sweet mustard.

I dont even know what the fuck popcorn shrimp are supposed to be

>>5465342
>>5465350
These are my favourite. McKennedy hot dogs...in a jar.

Doesnt look like the cheese cake I am familiar with

American pizza has a thicker crust and comes with corn or sometimes beans.

>>5465374
Dude, what?

>>5465374

From a different brand.

>>5465367

is a jar with liquid really that different from a plastic pack with liquid?

>>5465379
Because you're a typical American who never leaves their country...

>>5465383
Nah, but have you ever seen hot dogs in a jar in the States? It's a European thing to put wieners in jars.

>>5465377

The only place you get beef sausages in Germany is at halal butchers.

>>5465367

We used to sell hot dogs in cans and jars ourselves. So they're pretty "American" as far as I'm concerned.

>>5465350
>sweet popcorn
absolutely disgusting

>>5465377
Guess again, all cartilage, bone chips and assholes, not even real gut casing.

>>5465365
Popcorn shrimp are supposed to be battered and deep fried shrimp bits. Like, not whole shrimps, but cut so that they're roughly popcorn sized when cooked.

>>5465237
It's made with REAL americans.
May contain murricans, amerifats and other harmful american additives.

>>5465208
Fuck you people!
I put put that on my oriental flavor ramen!
It's extra healthy because I use himalyan pink salt!

>>5465391

That's pretty redundant, isn't it?

>>5465391
>flavory

lol

>>5465241
Agreed Eth.
It's oddly embarrassing. I mean, I can appreciate a nice homemade thousand island dressing, or burger sauce, but that being marketed as "american sauce" to foreigners is just....fucked.

>>5465374
NONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONOONONOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I cannot stress enough that American pizza NEVER has corn or beans on it. EVER. EVER. EVER. EVER. Fucking pig disgusting.

>>5465389

As a european I must say that I have never eaten a hot dog that came out of a jar. I've only ever seen them in jars in a Lidl store. I'd never buy those. Must be a german thing.

>>5465464
for you

>this is considered an insult in the US

>>5465702
I see ketchup, mustard, pickles...what are the things that look like oversized loogies?

>>5465704

Onions perhaps?

>>5465649
They have em like that all over the countries which eat sausages/wieners. Seen em all over Eastern Europe and Germany like you said.

>>5465704
Crispy fried onions.
And I think that's remolade, not mustard, European mustard's usually brown and generally quite strong, making it unsuitable for a brand x Everyman product.

>>5465704
fried onions

>>5465409
or sometimes it's just really small shrimp

>>5465729

As far as I know, these things' reason for existence is green bean casserole

>>5465723
>European mustard's usually brown and generally quite strong, making it unsuitable for a brand x Everyman product.

You can get all kinds of mustard in Europe. Including yellow 'mustard'.

>>5465649
Sausages are mostly either sold in a glas and in plastic packaging.

The glassed ones are precooked and edible cold and warmed up.

>>5465740
Also great with hotdogs, burgers, liver-pate and salami.

Crispy and savoy, yum.

You have no idea how authentic those are. That's exactly what people around here eat. Popcorn shrimp is delicious. Hot dogs do come in a can (vienna dogs).... and frozen pizza is the dinner, breakfast, and lunch of champions.

>>5465233

there's actually no thousand island in big mac sauce, the finished product is just reminiscent of it.

>>5465754

thousand island is: mayo, ketchup, relish
mac sauce is: mayo, ketchup, relish

Like semen

>>5465752
All these things in the pictures are things I as an American have seen eaten and have eaten myself, but it's not nearly representative of what I eat in general, nor is this particular manifestation through unfresh microwavables anything similar to what it's like to eat these things properly prepared.

>>5465359
Actually I think Germans are sexual deviants who have sex with orangutans. And secret Nazis.

the first part is sadly true

>>5465702
these are pretty shitty, the bun and dog are edible but some of the stuff on the hot dog is pretty vile especially because it's frozen

>>5465761
I think they are joyless men with a crudely amputated sense of national pride, allowed to take pride only in personal achievement.

>>5465759
That's the joke, mate.

>>5465759
sure, of course. But... do you understand what kind of circumstance someone (not american) has to be to stoop so low as to have to eat one of THOSE meals?

People have self respect. They're not going to microwave a brown looking piece of shoe leather and a random "Sauce packet" and call that food. They'll toss it in the garbage.

Just the fact that you have eaten some of this shit confirms that Americans eat disgusting shit all the time. I live here, too. I eat a frozen pizza maybe once every 3 years. I just don't buy them. Why would I?

Anyway i know a bunch of people, and this is the way americans eat:
> they go to subway, del-taco, or any other fast food place
like once a day at least.

There are those health concious girls that bring diet apples and herring from home... but they're rare.

The majority of the people are eating fast food, al the time. That shit doesn't happen in other countries. You only go to McDonalds if you're on the way to Disneyland or something and the kids are hungry and theres no way to get food anywhere else.

>>5465773

>>5465786

You know. Like chili!

>>5465787
>I'm 1/2 of the way across the street during a red light
Top kek. I have no idea why Americans have become so enthralled with having some form of ethnic background other than white, especially when it's so small. When people ask me, I just say I have German roots and that's it. No need to break down into that one time that my great-great-grand-uncle Willy had three half-black, half-Filipino kids.

>>5465774
Generally, being tired and lazy will do just fine.

Also begin crammed into a 1 room student flat with a kitchen consisting of a combi oven, a 1 burner electric stove, a plug for a kettle and negligible table-space tends to lend a bias towards convenience "meals".

>>5465787
>all this mad

But the "Cherokee" in White Americans and Black Americans is often black or white descent.

>>5465774
This >>5465795. The fact is, a large amount of people in the US (and the world in general, but that's a different topic) don't always have the means to make full, structured, healthy meals. That's not to say they're eating pig slop or shit they found in the street. It's just that plenty of people take what they can get because they know going hungry is worse. I've been homeless twice in my life, and I don't turn my nose down to most things because I remember how shitty dumpster diving was.

>>5465790
Who puts corn in chili?

>>5465805
People that like it, like people that put deer in it, or people that drink Coors instead of PBR.

>>5465794
> I have no idea why Americans have become so enthralled with having some form of ethnic background other than white, especially when it's so small.

It's because America is a heavily multiracial country (but not to the extent of Brazil or other Latin American places), and to just be one race is boring. For example, most Black people have no idea where they came from in Africa, so they take whatever white heritage they have (Nearly all Black Americans are part white) and flaunt that to the extreme. If they are ashamed of being part-white due to implied slave master rape, they often claim that it's "Cherokee" or some other Native American tribe.

Whatever unbridled greed and delusion would taste like as a foodstuff. With harsh preservatives and dyes that are both artificial and probably are carcinogenic.

>>5465805

>>5465786
>>5465790
Are you feeling Ducky, punk?

>>5465794
Well, the modern generations of Americans (the kids I grew up with)... were obsessed with fads, popularity, and just general appearances. The popular kids at school were always the rich ones... and their parents would be the ones instigating the whole thing.

It's the fucking PARENTS that have a huge $3,000,000 house... and they buy the kid a brand new car... and they tell him to throw a huge party and invite the whole school. And obvious after that all the other dumbasses that are easily influence think "Wow, Tyler is so cool, did you go to his partty?"

In regular counties, we respect generous, humble, hard working, quiet people. In America they reward flash, cash, and ass.

It's the culture. So... when kids would make friends, they would ask me "Who aer you?" and i would say "Im Anon." And they would say "well, yeah we know your nam, gosh! but who ARE YOU? Craig is a vampire... his family are full of witches. Tyler is super rich... and his dad owns a dealership. And I'm Veronica... im a mut. I'm 1/16th cheroke, 1/1024 black, and im just SO interesting... you can LITERALLY talk to me forever. And never get bored.

oh, tehre's Jamal! I gotta go say hi to him (whispers: he's black)

>>5465795
americans are chronically tired and lazy. I would cook stew with what you described. Not a fucking microwave snack. It actually takes LESS equipment and LESS money to cook REAL food, dumb american. (he's complaining about like 4 appliances he has right tehre that are cooking.)

When i cooked at home i only had one thing - a boiling pot. I used it to boil water (kettle), i covered it to slow cook things (oven), i fried shit on its bottom (pan)...

it aint hard sucker. It's just SOOOO much easier to buy that big red box and throw it in the nuke.

>>5465805
Sounds yummy to me! Don't yuck my yum!

>>5465813
But corn is fucking disgusting

>>5465814
Sure, the US is fairly multiracial, but I don't feel the need to grasp at straws in my family history to be able to claim that I'm just as multiracial. I don't understand why people can't be proud of who they are without trying to be everyone else at the same time.

>>5465820
That's what vegans say about meat, are you a god-damn vegan?

>>5465814

for black people, its completely different. It's already ingrained in their culture that light-skinned black people are FARR more attractive than dark skinned.

I've heard this discussion at lenght, but black people like their women lightskinned.

And why is it fucking boring to be one race??? I think its awesome. If you're a fucking full blooded persion you can trace your lineage down to some fucking prince.

God i hate american mentality.
> being one race is so boring
> so boring
> being is boring

FUCK. JUST FUCKING die. Nuke us all. I live in LA, but i still would LOVE for this whole country to just go up into space and die. fuck you man.

>>5465768
>implying that isn't the only thing that's worth being proud of

>Corn on pizza

I thought that was a Japanese thing. I never heard of a pizza with corn anywhere in the USA.

>>5465800
lmao what?

unless you live on a fucking reservation and your name is Running Mouth.. you're not a fucking Cherokee.

how fucking daft are you?

>>5465831

That's the joke. It's mostly a German thing. Like tuna on pizza.

>>5465824
What about the vegans who think meat is delicious, but for environmental reasons don't eat it? Are you a fucking liberal?

>>5465818
>LESS equipment and LESS money to cook REAL food

Instant food: Microwave and utensils
Real food: Cutting board, pot, knife, stirring spoon, for starters.

And cooking for one in a household without a freezer is very uneconomic, it IS cheaper than instant but combined with effort, it becomes *drumroll* Convenient.

I personally cook for myself, because I have the room and the energy for it, but I sure as hell didn't when I was crammed in a noisy hole in the wall.

>dumb american

> for starters
you're a starter alright. you're a fucking certified potato.


And even if i WERE to buy your cutting board, pot, knife, stirring spoon - that's $30 dollars. Still cheaper then your microwave. RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRETARD

Whoever said you had to guy a buy the combi-oven, it comes with the flat.

And cutting straight on the counter? fuck that's nasty, how do you keep you raw meat and veg separate?

I guess you'd have plenty of time for cooking with permanent diarrhoea.

>>5465869

BAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH fucking A dude. That's top tier. 10/10

>>5465787
Ohhh, I have a question for you. My grandma was disowned by her family for marrying my grandpa because he wasn't "aryan enough". Can I be honorary German? My name even has the sch and the oe=a in it.

>>5465208
>What do you suppose this tastes like?

Britfag here.

It is supposed to taste like Big Mac special sauce.

>>5465374
Well I know this isn't authentic. No true American would put corn or any other vegetable on their pizza.

>>5465361
>ketchup and mayo in one container

Whoever brings that to Miami supermarkets will become a billionaire

>>5465833
It was because of the One Drop Ruling.

It basically said that if you had even one drop of african blood in you, you were property.

So people started to claim that they were part cherokee if they weren't fully white or whatever.

After slavery, freemen would do the same mostly because they would face the same discrimination of not being fully black or the fact that your momma let a white devil in her honey pot or whatever.

So they claimed the same thing. Cherokee.

"I may not be fully black, but I have none of that white devilry in my blood, no sir! 100 percent honky free."

>>5465633
Yea, I don't like it. They should call it burger sauce or sandwich dressing or anything else, not "American Sauce" along with the most stereotypical subway tier trash sandwich on the front topped with an American flag. We don't even use that sauce here, 99% of people just use mayo, mustard and ketchup.

Shameful display, Heinz.

>>5466112
youre talking about something completely different. ive never met any blacks that claim cherokee but maybe thats their mentality.

im talking about 16 year old girls from connecticut that come to LA with big dreams and wanna be popular so they fucking invent a false identity.

just like 90% of american people age 16 - 25.

Okay, I am german and currently living in America. Let me explain this a bit first. In germany you have "supermarkets" like Aldi and Lidl, they have limited brand names and carry mostly storebrands. They are small because they carry only 1-2 versions of an item, these minimal choices = less space needed and combined with the storebrands/other cost cutting measures (like selling items from boxes instead of individually stocking each one from a shelf or having meat/deli/fruits/veg pre-packaged at one size/price type thing instead of dedicated people behind a counter), they offer good quality at a price cheaper than the "supermarkets" closer to what you would find in America. (Note: There are apparently Aldis in the US, but I have been to one. Fun fact though, Trader Joe's is owned by one of the Aldi Brothers)

Now, another thing of Aldi and similar stores, is that each week they have a special "theme" filling the middle aisle essentially. It could be gardening tools, maybe a computer (and accessories) or so on. The items vary in quality, but tend to be good deals (My Computer I bought in one still runs wonderfully and I only changed the case because it got a bit beat up after several moves).

One type of theme week is "Country Cuisine"

So you have an "Italy Week", a "France Week" and so on. This includes British, American, Turkish, Asian, Greek and so on.

The items and quality on these vary, from stereotypical and awful to reallly realllly good (If Lidl still makes those british week salt and vinegar "sticks" get them, some of the strongest and best salt&vinegar stuff out there).

America Week is no exception to this. So you have american items with a german slant to them, like the german Süß or "sweet" popcorn (think kettlecorn with a little more sugar, less salt) to fairly spot on items (like a McRib) and then everything in between.

Coming up on next post, german versions of american food and how this street runs both ways!

>>5466138

Part II: American Foods in germany

So sometimes a version of american food takes off in germany and it becomes the standard. A good example is "American Chili". In germany this is often ground beef, tomatoes, kidney beans and corn. Almost all versions are identical to that and while not bad, it doesn't hold a candle to a real american chili (or the greatness of a texan meat chili).

The corn (and beans) on pizza is an extension of this mindset, with a novelty item featuring "american stuff" like corn (and beans) to show how this is REALLY AMERICAN.

Granted, Americans are no better at this, with soft pretzels (not a laugenbrezel and it never will be as good as a REAL "pretzel") to versions of german sausages (most suck) and then the one thing that makes me REALLY rage.

Black Forest Ham, in america this is cooked ham (kochschinken in germany) with a black "rind" because black forest? In germany this is like prosciutto from the Blackforest (Schwarzwald) and it is called "Schwarzwalderschinken". The american version is NOTHING like the original german (which is trademark protected in the EU, though America doesn't respect that at all and slanders this delicious foodstuff with a bad knockoff)

Don't get me wrong, the USA makes a lot of amazing stuff, like peanut butter, maple syrup and the best cheddar ever.

What other questions do you guys have?

>>5466164

Post more pics and give more examples plz, this is very interesting to me. Especially how you will add beans and corn to American food to make it seem more "American", even though we don't actually put corn and beans on pizza here. I'm interested because we do the same thing to other ethnic foods and end up with something entirely different than the original. For instance somebody might serve a pretzel cooked with basil and served with marinara and call it an Italian pretzel.

Go on germanbro.

>>5466164
I share your rage over black forest ham bro. Shit sux and you can't get the real deal over here

>>5466164
Is the American chili spicy?

>>5466180

Thinking back on the "Cuisine" weeks another one comes to mind with "Mexico Week" this leads me to a semi tangent, about the awfulness of "fake cheese flavor" in germany. Simply put, we can't do it. Any equivalent of "Kraft Singles" (known as Schmelzkäse, literally 'melting cheese') sucks over here, nothing like cheetos (which are good), cheese sauces/dips in the american style are awful (really bad), but I encountered the worst offender in a Mexican Week, which had these goddawful cheese flavored "Tortilla Chips", I use quotations because they were bad. Other things like Flour Tortillas had the wrong consistency and slightly pasty (not that delicious chewiness and stretch of a real good one) or Bagels (think bread formed into a bagel shape, again lacking that texture and skin of the real thing). Sadly I don't have any pics atm, never thought it was that interesting until now.

in short, germans have access to a lot of good cheese (except good US cheddar), but cannot into fake cheese of any kind.

>>5466181

Worst of all is when you have people say "This is real Blackforest Ham"

>>5466198

Not really, which is odd as you do get spicy food (like in german-chinese/thai/asian or turkish), but at this point it's like "fake chinese" food, so ingrained that some people just prefer the fake stuff over a delicious slow simmered chunks of seared beef simmered with tomatoes and paprika (bell peppers) with some imported dried chilis.

>>5466164

Proper Speck was something I sorely missed while I lived in the US.

>>5466138
I'm not an expert on USA Aldi, I've been there only twice, but Aldi here is that place that only sells its own brand items and charges you money to use a cart and to check out with plastic bags, but their food is cheap.
Also they sell random things, which I guess is that "theme" you talked about. I bought a minifridge there.

>>5465464
the word you're looking for is oxymoron when two words mean the same thing so one is redundant
>fat american
>mad europoor
I'm from Europe so no one get mad okay?

>>5466271
>the word you're looking for is oxymoron when two words mean the same thing so one is redundant
lol no, that is not what an oxymoron is.

Skinny American would be an oxymoron.

>>5466242

For others who don't know what speck is, close thing is bacon, if not sliced as much and used in cubes often to add extra flavor to stuff and it's delicious.

>>5466249

In Germany you put a "1 Euro Coin" in the cart and you get it back when you return it, this is again a cost cutting measure (no employees constantly returning carts). As for bags, in germany they are about 6-9 cents each and quality (enough to last several trips if not overloaded) and they normally sell a sturdier bag as well (for 49 cents to an euro or so). A lot of people just grab empty boxes from the shelf or bring their own bags. A fun thing with aldi is how fast they are as cashiers and how they almost never make a mistake, while in the US they don't seem to focus as much and take a longer time (though the small chat is nice). Also, in germany if you have just 1-3 items, almost everyone lets you go first in line, partially because it goes so fast, also just to be polite. I have been in supermarkets where it is late at night, they have one or two filled carts and while I have only 2 items, they don't want any delay.

Another note about German grocery stores, you can't get as amazing discounts as you can in the US (like 50% off items, BOGOF and coupons, I can get PAID to "buy" items from a store, which as a Schwab amuses me to no end.

>>5466279
of course an oxymoron is when one word juxtaposes the other, sorry it's quite late and I'm an idiot

Some side notes:

Senf (Mustard): Simply put, germans have the best and that's only counting the normal stuff. It has a balance of flavors and spice through it that just make it perfect. I can't eat american yellow mustard at all actually, though I will not say the USA doesn't have good mustard. My standby is "Deli Mustard" especially some of the fancier versions with some extra horseradish. I also supplement this with french mustard (not french's), english mustard like Colmann's (only stuff that has a kick like the germany spicy mustard, though it lacks some of the balance) and Swedish (comes closest in balance at times, but is milder and almost sweet).

Another type of mustard in germany is "Süßer senf" which you often find in Bayern (Bavaria) served with "Weißwurst" a small soft white sausage, served with the sweet mustard and brezeln (and ofc beer). Sidenote for Bayern, it is the Texas of Germany, as in, it is loud, distinctive and everyone outside treats them like THIS IS WHAT THE COUNTRY IS LIKE. Germans don't constantly wear lederhosen, just like americans aren't constantly in cowboy hats and boots and riding horses. It happens, but it is more regional and not reflective of everyone.

Spezi/Schwip-Schwap/Mezzo Mix: While America has the amazing Dr.Pepper, Root Beer (why can't we have this!) and Ginger Ale (not as good as British Ginger Beer, but it does in a pinch). Germany has "Spezi" which is like Cola+Orange Soda, but it doesn't taste like that and it's amazing, rich, refreshing and delicious. Also, all of the soda over there uses just cane sugar, unlike here where I can't drink the HFCS stuff (except Barq's, because even with awful HFCS it is like liquid crack). I don't tend to drink much soda, barring some good Diet ones (Diet Dr.Pepper and Coke Zero for example) and Cane Sugar stuff. I also drink tons of seltzer, as in germany carbonated mineral is dirt cheap, strong and delicious. Almost everyone drinks it there.

While I love Salt and Vinegar, as well as Sour Cream and Onion Chips (along with stuff like Cheetos, normal and spicy and Jalapeno kettle), there is one chip I pine for that you can't get here.

Paprika Chips, potato chips (and even pringles) with the flavor of bellpeppers. It's like having a "pure" BBQ chip without as much going on, a flavor that works with almost everything and not sweet.

If you ever have the chance to try it, I would recommend it heavily, this is the one of the best chip flavors out there and one oddly missing in america.

I honestly don't like american "cream cheese" cheesecake, in germany we have one made from Quark, which is like a thicker yogurt (maybe greek yogurt is the closest you will get, still different though), it's creamy, softer, not overly sweet and you don't feel about to die from a slice.

It's not that bad, but not that good, I tried it once and when you can get a nicely grilled delicious sausage in a roll (weckle) with fresh grilled onions and german mustard on it for a similar price and then also delicious currywurst, it's pointless.

>>5465816

I will admit we do it, but then again, people in america like pineapple on their pizza (the water from it gets on the cheese and ruins the browning! it's sweet!), so I suppose every country has it's weird pizzas.

Just out of curiosity, have you ever visited Texas? There's a ton of towns with direct German heritage, which I grew up in. My dad didn't learn English till he went to school, they all spoke German at home, as did everyone else in town. That was in the first part of the 20th century, though. But when I was a kid, I remember every store in town, everyone spoke German to each other. There'd be a little English interspersed with it, but all the locals spoke German. But what's odd is it that the German we speak here is like an archaic form of German, one that stopped evolving in the 1800s, which is when everyone came over on the boat (landed in Galveston, and went on to found two towns, New Braunfels and Fredericksburg) When I was a kid, in the 80s, our distant cousins from Germany use to come visit (from Dusseldorf) and they always got a kick out of listening to everyone talk, because it was like listening to old German. Pic related, where all of my family is buried.

>>5466372

I haven't yet, it's nice to hear about that though, what is the food like?

(I once spoke with some Pennsylvania dutch, though that was pretty hard for us to understand each other and we switched over to english pretty fast)

>>5465208

Whenever I visit my cousins in Germany they have some of this shit and I get extremely buttmad when I offer to teach them how to make the 'American' versions of shit instead of buying this crap and they say no because they refuse to learn how to cook. They're terrible autistic manchildren though, so I guess I can't expect much from them.

Britbong here, we sometimes have products in stores that are "american style" on things like hotdogs and frozen burgers, literally all they change is some added smokey/bbq type flavour, like a oven pizza with barbeque sauce marketed with stars and stripes on the packaging, but its not common.

Unrelated but ust recently we started the new mcdonalds line of USA themed burgers, you can get pic related plus a bunch of others, and they commonly have a bbq/smokey taste that us brits seems to associate with the USA.

>If Lidl still makes those british week salt and vinegar "sticks" get them, some of the strongest and best salt&vinegar stuff out there.

I know what you are talking about and yes they are amazing.

>>5466388
Well, the food is great, but it's a mix, like you'd expect. There's tons of German food, including Schwienebraten, Rouladen, Koeningsberger Klopse, Sauerbraten, Schnitzel of all kinds, Kassler Ripchen, Currywurst, all sorts of wurst of every variety, all sorts of German salads, vegetables, etc. But also tons of TexMex, real Mexican, and traditional Texas dishes like Chicken Fried Steak, Chili, etc. And more bakeries than you can shake a stick at. Tons of bakeries. Fresh breads of all kinds, pastries, pretzels, sweet pretzels, and more, everywhere.
When I was in high school, I apprenticed to a pastry chef who had moved here from Germany. Good lord, did I learn so much.

>>5466414
Man I get so buttmad over big chains and their specialty burgers in countries outside of the US. Whenever we get a specialty burger it's just another type of bacon burger or chicken burger. You guys get weird combos and shit.

>>5466414

Yeah, BBQ is another big IT'S AMERICAN thing, right up there with corn.

>>5466422

I am glad you have seen how great real german food is, especially the awesome bread and pastry stuff. Have you tried german cheesecake? Or Spätzle? Lebkuchen?

>>5466426

Go to "www.brandeating.com" they cover regularly the crazy stuff everyone but the USA gets from the major fast food chains as a side thing.

>>5466391
Thats hilarious, I don't know why I think this whole America themed week or month in European countries is so amusing to me. I'm just imagining a grocery store in Germany decked out in American flags with Guns and Roses blaring and there is a huge aisle filled with hamburger buns, velveeta, "american sauce", Iron Man 3 DVD's, and Slim Jims.

Somewhat on topic my favorite store is doing Italy month this whole May where they are promoting imported Italian foods. There are Italian flags everywhere and they've been playing Italian opera music over the sound system. I'm just having fun imagining how a similar store would celebrate America month in Europe.

>>5466431
Oh, yes! All the women in my family make Spatzle (for certain dinners) and Lebkuchen is always made during the holidays here. German style cheesecake is pretty popular in restaurants here, but my family didn't make it at home very often, because it was "too rich", lol. During the holidays, we also make a lot of strudel and marzipan.

>>5466441

Hah, I wish it was that funny for America week or that much dedication on the other ones. It isn't as special or fun as it may sound, it's really a mix of real and "fake" or bad stuff occupying the center "special" aisle.

It does have hamburger buns, america sauce and such and I remember a couple other weird stuff, like Blueberry Juice

>>5466446

Do you have:
Schupfnudlen
Leberkäse
Flädle Suppe
Hawaii Toast (please say no)
Kartoffelknodeln (must have the little "crouton" in it)
Rotkohl
and lastly, do you know "Butterbrot"?

>>5465208

>>5466468
Do you have:
Schupfnudlen - No
Leberkäse -oh hell YES
Flädle Suppe - Yes!
Hawaii Toast (please say no) - No, I know what it is, but I'd never had it or heard of it until I left home.
Kartoffelknodeln (must have the little "crouton" in it) -Yes!
Rotkohl - Oh most definitely, I make it on a regular basis. It's one of my favorite foods.
and lastly, do you know "Butterbrot"? - You bet I do! :)

Okay, I have a question for you! Do you eat or know of Koch Kaese? (we always add caraway seeds)

>>5466468

not him but if there's 1 german dish someone should try what would it be? Or a couple if you can't decide.

>>5465993
Yeah, I know. Pizza already is a vegetable :^)

>>5466488
>Koch Kaese
Don't know about that

Hawaii Toast is the worst food item germany has ever made besides failing at fake cheese forever. That said, it's not that bad honestly, sorta like ghetto pizza crossed with Hawaiian pizza, but I never get how it stays popular

Also, my mom always makes one knodel with 3 croutons as the lucky one.

Schupfnudeln are sorta like german gnoochi, but different, it's most commonly served hot and pan fried with sauerkraut, speck and onions

There is nothing in the world as good as fresh bread with butter on it like butterbrot.

My oma used to make this amazing sauerkirschkäsekuchen btw (sour cherry german cheese cake)

>>5466491

Hrmm, there is a LOT of great ones, but let's see (and note, I am biased, because south german)

>Spätzle mit Soße, and prolly a schnitzel too
But those first two alone is good enough. Also, northeners eat their Schnitzels with just pommes and ketchup, heathens. Spätzle is sorta like a hand formed irregular egg noodle, often panfried too, there is also a "casserole" version of Spätzle, Emmentaler (swiss cheese), Roasted Onions, Speck, Salt and Pepper layered over and over which is amazing too

>Kartoffelsalat, Zwei Weinerle, Senf
South german potato salad (think a light vinneagrate sorta, with two "hotdogs" that would be closest to Nathan's? But better and then the german mustard)

>Brezeln/Butterbrot
Laugen (lye) is what gives the pretzel it's dark hue and that distinctive rich crust, soft pretzels and little hard ones can die in a fire compared to how good this is. Also amazing served with german butter. Which brings me to Butterbrot, which is often a semi-dark german bread (like a rye one) with a nice thick (but not too much) spread of butter on it, untoasted, wrapped up with two pieces facing each other butterside (to not make a mess)

>Lebkuchen
Original German Gingerbread, it's soft, rich, so flavorful and spiced. People in Nürnberg will say they have the best, but the best is from Ulm.

>>5466491
>>5466521

Just a couple more and I promise I will stop

>Sauerkirschkäsekuchen
My oma made the best, straight up

>Currywurst/Wurst
The sausage bit I mentioned above, sooo good. And then a great currywurst, as it's grilled, cut up, covered in curryketchup (add curry powder to ketchup), served with a roll and sometimes grilled onions on top if lucky. Leberkäse on a roll is also good, but it's not AS good

>Turkish
Just like america has amazing taquerias, germany has so much good turkish food. And let's be honest, greek food is a pale greasy imitation of the turkish stuff. Doner Kebab, Yufka Kebab, Lahmacun, Borek, Pide, Baklava, Dolma, etc. it's amazing and if I didn't get amazing mexican stuff, I would crave it even more than I already do

>>5466521
This is fun, and informative. It's weird, but once I left home (for uni and then work, in other parts of the US) I've never found another german-based community or area, which makes me so homesick. So, it's nice to trade info with you, even though I'm just a german by heritage, not by country of birth, it makes me feel at home! I'm going to get to go home for a visit in a couple months, and I'm so looking forward to it. I'm going to drive there (even though it's a three day trip) just so I can take coolers with me to bring back a bunch of wurst, baked goods, pickles, and anything else I can get my hands on.

>>5466580

Surprisingly good german food is hard to find in the US from what I see, especially because you can see all the german influence in culture, heritage, etc. in america. And I mean, the food is perfect for american tastes, it's simple but flavorful, rich but not overly so, hearty and just comfort food.

>>5466589
I'm surprised it isn't more popular, I've only seen real German food around the central Texas German enclaves like anon was talking about. Theres every other type of cuisine around but not much German. Like you said it's perfect for American tastes.

So Germanbro, from what you're telling me "Haufbrau house" isn't an authentic German restaurant?

Coulda fooled 99% of the people that eat there!

I visited southern Germany once (Munich as well as Austria and Switzerland). I had a great time during my entire visit.

One funny thing is that the "german" style of sleeping where you only use a quilt and no sheet (at least in the hotels that I stayed at) was so pleasing to me that I sleep this way at home.

Also you're right about the mustard, I had some mustard in London that nearly made me shit myself because I was coughing it up so hard. It puts French's (the brand) to shame in terms of how intense it is.

Germany though, very enjoyable country and people.

>>5466886

I have never been there, what isn't authentic about it?

>>5466899

It's a "german restaurant" that fancies itself a legit place to get german food. Lot of sausages and all that as well as beers and pretzels.

>>5466913

I can't really comment and another thing, I can be forgiving to an extent if the food is good. Like, there are german-chinese places (same with american-chinese) that serve tasty food, though not authentic (nothing like a good mapo tofu). Less so if it isn't good and they call it authentic.

On the mustard, I do find british to be stronger than german overall, it has good flavor, but it gets lost, while even the strong german mustard doesn't take over the flavor.

>>5466931

What part of the US are you living in? Favorite american dish so far?

>>5466943

West Coast and for a short list:

Buffalo Wings
Easier access to real chinese food
Affordable Sushi
Nachos/Burritos/Tacos (the good ones)

I could do some more, but want to keep it simple

>>5466952

Oh buffalo wings, those are good shit I didn't even think about not being able to find those in europe.

California is a gold mine of good mexican food, it's too bad you don't live near NYC so you could have a real bagel though.

>>5466959

I have had good bagels, some local places make their own, the chewiness of a good one is something unique.

Lucky on mexican food as you said, it is amazing how close it and turkish are in some ways. (Very different in other ways though)

And yeah, I don't understand why other wings exist when there are buffalo ones.

>>5466959
>California
>good Mexican food
I actually find a lot of their stuff to be not as good as in Texas. In my experience living around LA for awhile, their stuff tended to have a lot more tomato in it. Not really what I expect out of Mexican cuisine. I much prefer a chili-base to sauces.

>>5465305
Lard isn't really a common ingredient. Partially hydrogenated palm oil, perhaps.

Not the person you're responding to, but almost every black person I met while growing up claimed to have cherokee ancestry. One of my best friends is black and cherokee on her father's side and until I read this thread I thought nothing of it. Now, I'm doubting all of them, hah

>>5466601
Many Americans, especially in the Midwest, are of German descent but almost none are connected to their heritage. In the 40s, a lot of them probably decided assimilate into American culture and lose their German culture due to the cultural and political biases that resulted from WWI and WWII. That's probably why you don't see a lot of authentic German cuisine around America. At the beginning of the 20th century there used to be a really large German community where I currently live in Brooklyn, New York too.

You can definitely find good food of various flavors of Middle Eastern if you're out here in LA. Try the places all these fucking Armenians inhabit.

>>5467355
Some places in France to it but it's really not popular there. White pizza where you replace the tomato sauce with cottage cheese is way better.

>>5467366
what? You replace the tomato sauce with alfredo. It's based on cheese but you don't literally replace the sauce with like parmesean, that would just be a sauceless pizza. Besides, I still like buffalo pizza the best. Alfredo pizzas are just so heavy.

Pesto is also really good but you need to be careful about what toppings you use. It's really easy to totally overpower the pesto imo

>>5467376
>You replace the tomato sauce with alfredo.
I assure you most place just use "creme fraiche", a variation of cottage cheese. It works, it's basically a thicker flammekueche.

>>5465208

>>5467389
Never seen that done here, though I don't really consider creme fraiche to be a cheese, it's a cream.

I've also done hotsuace bbq pizzas, which are alright. We used to do a cheeseburger pizza at a shop I worked at, which had pickles, ground beef, iirc ketchup and mustard and I cannot recall the rest. It was better than it sounds.

>In the 40s, a lot of them probably decided assimilate into American culture and lose their German culture due to the cultural and political biases that resulted from WWI and WWII

This is true.
>>5466372 here.
My dad was a kid during WWII (yeah, he's old, he got married old and I wasn't born until he was in his fifties), but he said that during WWII, the residents of our town were advised to not tell pepole where they were from, because it might cause trouble, and that people from neighboring towns would drive through and throw shit at people and yell at them, etc. I think the only reason they weren't hated on more is because Chester Nimitz was from our town (he was the Fleet Admiral of the Navy in the Pacific during the war). Luckily, the residents didn't feel the need to abandon their culture, so it's still intact today, but I'm sure a lot of other German communities did.

>>5467548
Oh and I also forgot to say that those biases didn't go away after the wars, either. I remember being in high school and hanging out with some kids from the town 20 miles over, and they called us Krauts and Nazis. Pretty offensive, but that's how it was. I don't think it's like that anymore now, I think that era has finally gone.

>>5467254
> almost every black person I met while growing up claimed to have cherokee ancestry

In New York it's all about black caribbeans claiming to be Arawak or Taino or some such thing. I think there's even a famous rap star who does that, I can't be bothered to google it.

Also, they really pour Valentina all over their pizza.

German-anon who went/lived in Texas, how did you like the barbecue and how did it compare to your previous expectations or "fake" barbecues?

I say "fake" because there is nothing that gets cooking Texans (or anybody else who cooks real bbq, really) more pissed off than "barbecue" that's actually just fucking grilled stuff. A proper bbq dish takes hours, possibly a day or more. Low and slow. Grilling is the total opposite.

Tomato, in chunks or slices

A lot of vegetables are perfectly fine pizza toppings.

>it doesn't hold a candle to a real american chili

Now tell me what that is supposed to be.

>>5467506

Our Rewe has that too; they sell imported American HFCS Dr. Pepper for 1.59€ and regular Dr. Pepper with actual sugar for 0.69€ right next to them in the regular softdrink section.

Either the classic ground beef/turkey with beans in a spicy rich sauce made from tomatoes and chilis or the texan all meat kind.

>Either the classic ground beef/turkey with beans in a spicy rich sauce made from tomatoes and chilis or the texan all meat kind.

It's most curious that whenever you post your recipe in a chili thread somebody pipes up and says that it's not actually chili and that you have to make it so and so. Which then in turn gets beaten down because that's not authentic chili either.
It's weird, man.

>>5471024

Well, maybe I don't get the differences, but what I know chili should be is rich, tasty, meaty and some level of spice. Needs to have meat and/or beans and some mix of chili/tomatos for the sauce/flavor. Everything else is a mix of that.

>>5471028

Some dude said that a chili shouldn't have any tomatoes in there. Actual chili has to be made with beer he said.
There is no winning

Just make what tastes good and learn from what others do to make theirs taste good, anything else is MADNESS

why do you feel compelled to shitpost

>they don't have flavoured popcorn, probably!
>stupid americans!

>>5471062
Does your nationalist programming compel you to defend this shit?

You know what tastes like America to me? Melting a couple of tablespoons of this stuff in the microwave in a coffee mug and drizzling it over a big ass bowl of Boy Scout popcorn and shaking salt all over the whole fucking thing.

Then eating it while watching Adult Swim.

>>5471344

>boy scout popcorn

thanks for your support
you know, over 70% of the proceeds go to local scouting programs!

(trails end actually does make my favorite microwave popcorn though)

>>5471344

I'd really like to know what that tastes like because I can't believe that it'll taste like butter

>>5472269

It does.

>>5465208

it tastes like butter in small doses, but if you have alot it has a metallic taste, kinda nasty

>>5465208

American mustard with mayo?

>>5474281
Mix up some Coleman's mustard powder to make the mustard with some American mayo for a good combination.

Make the mustard first then mix the two afterwards. You can thank me later.

Exiled northern German studying in Ulm here, where to get the good Lebkuchen?

>>5474953

Weiss Lebkuchen

http://www.lambertz-shop.de/weiss-saisonartikel.html/

It is right across the Donau in Neu-Ulm, they should have a factory store there.

>>5474967
Thanks.

As a Britfag, allow me to explain our European way of thinking.
We look at things like burgers, hotdogs and burger sauce as American, because to us this seems perfectly acceptable.
It was invented there. However, there are huge differences in how we cook things.
American pancakes are thicker, whereas ours lack the baking powder in the recipe, thus are thinner.
American cheesecake is baked in the oven, whereas our cheesecakes are set in the fridge and never really see any heat
(except to melt butter into the biscuit base)

So for most things, when we put the word 'American' on the label, we're not stereotyping American food as much as we are creating the distinction.
Don't be upset. We love your food.
We apologise for fucking it up once in a while.

>>5465208
This better not be anything short of fucking Freedom.

Where do you think this is? Commiestan?

>>5469945
It's pretty meh. But that's what people here think what American style pizza is like, either something with a very thick crust or some horrible half assed mutant Chicago deepshit pizza.

Please don't. A Brit's as much a stranger to me as an American.

You've got good taste in root beer. Why don't you like Virgil's?
If you ever get the chance, try Henry Weinhard's.

>>5475472

Virgil's was in the A&W camp in some ways, too creamy and sweet, not much much "bite" and I honestly prefer my root beer with more bite but not overly so (see Dad's). It is good quality, I enjoy it, but I wouldn't go out and get it.

Henry Weinhard's for me is like Thomas Kemper's and Sprecher's. They are not bad by any means, more balanced in flavor than Virgil's (Kemper's is a bit too sweet with the honey though)

Btw, what do you think about domestic Ginger Ales and Beers?

>>5475408

Have you had them? They are great!

Henry We

>>5475546
Haven't really tried enough to get a taste for either.
I only know Root Beer cause I grew up loving the stuff and nowadays I occasionally feel like treating myself to a fancy brand - very occasionally.
I'm surprised there are other people as into it as me.
>Thomas Kemper's and Sprecher's
Never heard of them before, must look into it.

>>5475546
Yes, I've had them. I live near Ravensburg and they sell them in stores here. They are good (a bit too sweet maybe) compared to other factory made ones but far from the best without that restriction.

Have you had Hatzel's? They are handmade with premium ingredients and no conservation additives.

>>5475581

Well, Canada Dry is a nice inoffensive one (I prefer the diet because no HFCS). Reed's is goddawful, never ever try it, I have never had one that bad.

Thomas Kemper's is small brewed and they use honey, which changes it up,

Sprecher's has a crow on the bottle and wider than other ones IIRC, it's not amazing, but it is solid. Sort of like the Mug's of bottle/cane sugar kinds.

>>5475591

I do like Hatzel's, but never my favorite. I may be biased with a lot of family in Ulm and getting them fresh a lot. If I ever see them over here I will give them another try.

Thousand island dressing (big mac sauce)
