[–] Gladaed@feddit.org 7 points 8 hours ago

That's a grand name for it!

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

Nothing beats dutch style peanut sauce on fries

Throw a dried fish on top and some Swede would post it to foodporn

[–] k0e3@lemmy.ca 5 points 10 hours ago

I dunno, "some shit" is a better name.

[–] frozenpopsicle@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 10 hours ago

Fuck yeahhh. Olive fetish.

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 38 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Tf did this guy just call chips and pips?

[–] Rekorse@sh.itjust.works 4 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

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

[–] Milk_Sheikh@lemmy.dbzer0.com 30 points 1 day ago

Proper scran, that

[–] brem@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Tribbles and barn, say ye?

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

[–] ohshit604@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 day ago (2 children)

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

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

[–] Brosplosion@lemmy.zip 4 points 6 hours ago

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

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.

[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 1 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Are black-treated green olives cheaper than black olives or what?

[–] lime@feddit.nu 1 points 4 hours ago

i think so, actual black olives aren't very popular so they're harder to get

[–] sangriaferret@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

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

Most olives in supermarkets are like that.

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

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 9 points 1 day ago

“I’ll have fries”

Like spaghetti for sauce

[–] xep@fedia.io 31 points 1 day ago (1 children)

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

[–] slothrop@lemmy.ca 29 points 1 day ago (3 children)

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

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

[–] BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.uk 6 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

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

Americans don't have a good enough drinking culture to appreciate British food.

[–] MrShankles@reddthat.com 1 points 6 hours ago

You ain't never had an ice coooool budweiser with some gas station tornados... and it shows. Ain't never even thought about a Mcflurry Mcdouble, or you'd have already transcended... into heart failure. Let freeeeedom ring mofukr!

[–] vrojak@feddit.org 17 points 1 day ago (4 children)

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

[–] ggtdbz@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 10 hours ago

Some garlicky gravy-adjacent sauce and maybe something like chili flakes and I’d eat that with zero hesitation.

Even if these look like the abhorrent “olives” that are surely the leading cause of people thinking olives are disgusting. If these were freshly sliced regular brown olives (regular to me in the Mediterranean) they wouldn’t even need sauce at all. Although the chili flakes can stay.

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Nacho cheese or a good aioli and id eat that.

As someone who loves olives and fries this looks delicious.
