I have to admit I only tried peanut butter once in my life, I was around 16 or so. It was kind of very odd and so I didnt try it again! Anyway, if you are not really really looking for it in Germany, you wont find peanut butter not be offered a peanut-butter pan-cake or so! smile.gif

Is it because the peanut is a genetically impure, and therefore inferior food to the most pure and superior German foods ja? tounge.gif

Well, we eat...butter! And then we put something on top of the butter, such as cheese or ham. Extraordinary isnt it. Now if you give me this shit that we feel superior and stuff and "if I would say what is in my mind right now I would get banned" well then I guess you have set the direction this discussion is going. It is nothing new that most americans have underdeveloped sensitivity is terms of taste. This occurs only if you are brought up with only a limited variety of tastes (experiences) and so you stick to extremes e.g. sweet or fatty, since those are the major ones. I could ask you guys about the most spectacular cheeses and spanish hams in the world and you would probably think I talk about .... well who cares. YOu call it arrogant, I call it the willingness to learn. I tasted the typical american peanut butter but you basically never tried a Gryere or Reblechon and you would probably puke from a Roquefort. When you got to the butcher you only know to chose between dried and cooked hams, dont you! You wouldnt know a single fxxxcking name of one of those hams.

Yes we most of us call your tastes childish and underdeveloped. Food is culture! Stick to your peanut butter I give a shit (indeed) tounge.gif

I just wanted to tell you that it is very uncommon here. No implication or message between the lines. But if you ask me so politely..I cant resist.

"Pizza, burger, pizza, burger, hot mexican stuff like taccos and stuff, burger, monster-vegetarian sandwich, fruit-loops, peanut butter, californian red whine (they are getting really a lot better now though), spare ribs, 2kg steak, grilled Marshmellows, chinese stuff like spring roles and pork sweet and sour. Damm it, is that your food culture? biggrin.gif Yes I am arrogant indeed!

In germany they put butter on sandwhiches. Ham sandwich with both pieces of breads buttered. Actually its quite good. I cant stand American cheese. Its the most flavorless thing ever. And I love French mustard. But I also like Pizza, hamburgers, and marshmellows wink.gif

Great think about America is its a great mixture of other cultures food, all fast-food ized.

Ah, shut up you Euro-snob. I dont give a flying flip how many kinds of ham you guys have, because ham is ham. And if your ham is so goddamn good, why isnt there a Herr Hamschnitzel restaurant on my corner? And what are those Golden Arches over there in Europe? Why, is that McDonalds? With its inferior and undeveloped hamburgers? Which everyone seems to enjoy so well? Why I think it is. You you can take your Roquefort, your Gryere, and a couple Croissants while your at it, and shove it. USA rules!!!!

BTW, whats up with the no ice in your drinks? Too gauche for you?

Thank you Tex for standing up to that foul smelling cheese eater.  It's people like that, who give Europeans a bad name.

Mods, please close this anti-American shit for a thread, and perhaps think about giving a warning or two to a certain individual in here.

Genetically impure? What peanut butter are you eating?!?

Mine is peanuts. Nothing but mashed up peanuts. smile.gif

I agree that North Americans generally have different taste in food than Europeans. And that is bad why, you saurkraut eating, sausage munching schweinhund? (Just kidding Albert...but it had to be said biggrin.gif)

It is pretty peurile to knock people for what they do or do not like to eat. After all, some Koreans consider dog to be good eating. Just accept that tastes vary and dont eat what you dont like and get over it smile.gif

Oh yes Sherrif! You should have been the Ref in the Corea Italy game!

Hah, Tex Mec! Of course you got a McDonalds around your corner, you live in the US!  tounge.gif

And european restaurants are indeed not to be found everywhere cause they dont offer the appropriate food for people that just want to eat quickly and cheaply! I didnt think you would take a punchback so badly. First you piss me off and then you get a boomerang argument and finally you start this girlish stuff like "I dont wanna know, I dont care about you anyway"!

It seems you are running out of rethorical ammo when the discussion turns towards food and then you start to bark like a little runaway dog!

LOL, nice. You called me unsophisticated, I called you a snob. Fair trade if you ask me. And I never said I was completely close minded; for example, I love Spanish food -paella especially- but I suppose thats too "Franz-Working-Class" for you, because, after all, you have such sophisticated tastes.

BTW, there are plenty of European restauraunts in my area. French, Italian, etc. No German Restaurants though tounge.gif

What Im saying is, you have no business putting a downer on American food just because your tastes (which are obviously in the vast minority) vary towards things with odd names and odd smells. You can eat whatever you want. But dont tread on our food because of it.

(Sprinkle Euro-trash jokes liberally, add water, cook for 30 minutes, garnish. Final product: US v Europe Flame War. Serves about a forum's worth)

I like your recipe, but it lacks something: Dessert: Thread closure and post restrictions wink.gif
