Tribbles and barn, say ye?

Oh just great, another fokkin’ scouser. Just what we need.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

Canadians got Hosers and Britains got Scousers, who would’ve thunk it!

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

Hmm.. isn't hoser like an insult?

Some people might use Scouser as an insult, but it's just people from Liverpool.

That's more like it. "Nuts and bolts" makes way too much sense to be an actual British name.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Nuts and bolts sounds more like cockney rhyming slang for an electrical outlet. 230 volts -> bolts -> nuts and bolts

He said “I love fries.” and got misheard.

Is that real? I love potatoes and I love olives, if this is a legit dish I'll try it!

black olives from pizza places are usually not actually black; they're green olives that have been chemically treated to oxidise quicker.

...which is presumably why they usually taste like o-rings.

[-] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago

That might explain why i hate them so much even though i love all other olives

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

That might explain why I only ever get the texture from olives on pizza...which is....actually still ok with me. Flavorless for sure but yum olive texture

[-] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

The texture of canned "black olives" isn't really all that different from most types, but they have a much weaker flavor because they are processed in a matter of days instead of weeks/months/years of the alternative methods. Those longer methods, usually some combinations of brine and/or fermenting are where most of that flavor comes from. I only know this because I had a grand idea to try to grow my own olives and I looked into it and realized I wasn't ever going to end up with my own that resembled stuff from the store. This is just more random info hiding in my brain instead of things that would be useful on a daily basis.

Most olives in supermarkets are like that.

Some cheese on top of that and you have a feast.

Feta and tzatziki or skordalia, squeeze a lemon on it. Now it’s Greek Poutine.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago
[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

I was just coming to the comments to mention that! I made it this last weekend. Fries are so good with feta cheese!

[-] [email protected] 17 points 1 month ago

Looks kinda dry but with some sauce this actually would be great fast food

[-] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago

Nacho cheese or a good aioli and id eat that.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

I vote for aioli!

Mayonnaise, probably.. would work for most Europeans.

For the Western hemisphere, hollandaise or Thousand Island. (Keep in mind, ketchup won't work well with the olives.)

Asia, you're gonna want a few extra things to build it up. Japan got it right with Umami, baby.

As someone who loves olives and fries this looks delicious.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago

Whilst I have no idea what this is, the British practice of putting vinager on one's chips yields surprisingly good results.

Honestly, I'd eat this... I usually think British food is disgusting, but they have me with this one.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

This would not be a common British food, no. I'm curious what British food you don't like though?
