You're probably American. Specifically, flyover American.

Better not let on that you like arugula or you might get hazed by the local toughs on suspicion of being a homosexual, a foreigner, or a college graduate. Quite possibly all three.

it's like tuna salad, not prawn flavored mayo

The rest of the world calls it rocket, rucola or roquette. 'Arugula' was a phonetically-spelled word invented in 1960 by an American writer who misheard local guidoese.

It's a little bit like Imperial measurements or driving on the right hand side of the road. Americans do it because they're too fucking stupid to realise that the rest of the world actually has it right and they're in the wrong.

Maybe the country that invented the automobile gets to decide what is the right way, my little ass blasted yuropoor.

>>9188730
doesn't really matter, it has a few generally accepted names which includes both arugula and rocket.

>ass blasted yuropoor

You do realise that the automobile is a European invention, my poorly educated American teenage friend?

>>9188792
'Arugula' is an Americanism not generally accepted by the rest of the world.

Arugula (/əˈruːɡələ/), the common name now widespread in the United States and Canada, entered American English from non-standard (dialect) Italian. (The standard Italian word is rucola, a diminutive of the Latin "eruca"). The Oxford English Dictionary dates the first appearance of "arugula" in American English to a 1960 New York Times article by food editor and prolific cookbook writer Craig Claiborne.

>>9188947
Arugula is not used in Europe any more than pommes frites are referred to as 'French fries'.

It's almost as if you don't realise that other countries with thousands of years of history and culture do things a little differently to your country.
