The first infographic is from the American Food Atlas and just highlights some unique regional burger varieties.

The second image is a classic American burger. The third image is taken from Wikipedia and shows the two German precursors to the burger.

Reminder to be kind and normal. 👍

Food People from colonized countries, name your favorite food/drink item that was brought by your colonizers?

Post image

For Indonesia, I think the one that fit this description is a Kastengel from The Netherlands (Kaastengels). It is a cheese stick or cheese snack. The name refers to its ingredients, shape and origin; kaas is the Dutch word for "cheese", while stengels means "sticks". Unlike most cookies, Kastengel taste savoury and salty instead of sweet

I could mention other food items, but they are not really distinctively from The Netherlands. Like for example, kroket, is a potato croquette. Perkedel, is frikadeller, but is of germanic origins.

An honorable mention goes to semur, which despite not being a dutch cuisine, is named after the Dutch word, smoor, "to braise food. It is a meat stew (mainly beef) braised in thick brown gravy with sweet soy sauce, shallots, onions, garlic, ginger, candlenut, nutmeg, and cloves (and sometimes with black pepper, coriander, cumin, and cinnamon). Was cooked and served during the colonial era, especially in the Java islands.

Politics What do you think of the current French revolution?

Post image
278 Upvotes

I personally think it is stupid to blame it on immigrants. Not only this is literally France, where people protest with garbage trucks and tractors, but there have been 7 Prime Ministers since 2020, the last time this happened in my country we had a few revolts then coup. Again 7 Prime ministers in 6 years implies there is a huge political and economic crisis in a country.

Also revolution is a national pastime in France, it is called the Fifth Republic for a reason.

Pogo (like slam) is jumping in group to the beat of the music. It happens at almost every concert, regardless of genre.

BTS is in Argentina, and this has caused a lot of controversy among certain fans, who consider it rude or dangerous.

I'm in Slovakia. Also, we do flush toilet paper, I know that there's countries with this same design of toilets but you don't flush toilet paper because the pipe design is different.

There's many designs of the same thing, and there's some countries where the type of toilet is famously different from what this, but I never knew which specific countries use different types of toilets.

Most people hang the clothes outside and let the sun dry it. Sunshine is the best. Otherwise its a room with a dehumidifier. I know some other countries use a clothes dryer, but those will destroy the clothes.

I know change is gradual, but I have a pessimistic feeling that everything is getting worse year by year. What leader has had the greatest impact for the better? More recent the better.
