Things that are Just Wrong

[Katji]

^^^That's just....wrong? Beyond wrong.


I could live without it, I suppose. I must check whether they have it in India.

 

[Katji]

...Yes...

And...

I grow up in Germany - Most of what has been said here about beer, sounds so wrong to me .

However, as a Kid, my mum made me hot beer soup for diner... that is very wrong.
Don't do that to your kids.


Eiskaffee "lecker" - try some ice coffee with vanilla ice hummmm

In Denmark we have Øllebrød - 'beerbread soup' - which is basically hot (low alcohol) beer mixed with your old rye bread crusts. Actually it's delicious served with whipped cream. Yummy!

It had a good "side-effect" tough : I could not stand the smell of beer for a very long time, at least until my 16 (she might have forgotten the honey ;-)). but it's all fine now

Man even as a German i say Gazpaco and Iced koffee with vanilla icecream are great inventions. We Germans should have done it. Ok at least we where partly involved with great inventions like spaghetti ice and döner.
Makes the pain a litle bit less.

I think you'll find there is a difference between a Lager Beer (which everyone prefers chilled) and pretty much every other type of beer (IPA, Stout, Ale etc etc) which are typically considered more palatable at room temperature.

Yeah it's malt liquor

Never was in denmark, so i was qurious about food in denmark. Quick search didnt show much differences to german food? Ok, becks beer would need a líttel bit of transition, but with the rest of the food i think i could live perfectly.

This is all more wrong than where it started, with ice coffee.

Denmark, and yes, now I am curious. Fish and cheese? I guess.
But beer..bread soup? Why? Cheese and milk, on bread, perfect. ...I mean, like cheese sauce, but more liquid.

But at least I learned something... German has the word lekker, just different spelling.
And eiskaffee... I wondered why then eisbein, and google said "literally ice bone." .... There was that day when we all went from the office to have eisbein for lunch.

Insects as food. So wrong.... yuk.

At the moment it is rather the insects having chosen me for food... - Who could tell them how wrong that is please.

Fake meat - Beyond Meat - Impossible Foods - anything resembling meat made from Tofu.

 

[MediumRare]

Stating as absolutes opinions which are based solely on your expectations developed in childhood - that is wrong!

 

[StuartC]

putting jam on your scone before the cream.... utterly wrong!

Depends on how you pronounce scone.

Swing Low at Twickenham. That is WRONGER!

“Warm” beer.

well ... it’s not actually warm, rather around 49 to 55 degrees Fahrenheit.

Actually there is mulled beer/ale which is served heated up to about 104 degrees F. It's often served with some fruit syrup and spices such as cloves. It's a winter warmup drink.

 

[Propheticus]

Pineapple on pizza.
Or just most warm fruit for that matter.
