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

Personally when I lived in The Netherlands I was quite partial towards lots of mayo on my patates (chunky chips, only far more than merely just larger) rather than pindakaas saus, but patates are a hole different class than English-style chips (which is the same style as in most of Europe) which do gain from drizzling them with vinegar to offset the absorbed fat.

[–] brem@lemmy.world 16 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Tribbles and barn, say ye?

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

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 1 day ago

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

[–] Gladaed@feddit.org 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That's a grand name for it!

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Bloody splendid!

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

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 9 points 2 days ago

“I’ll have fries”

[–] lime@feddit.nu 44 points 2 days ago (12 children)

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.

[–] sangriaferret@sh.itjust.works 14 points 2 days ago (4 children)

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

Most olives in supermarkets are like that.

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

Like spaghetti for sauce

[–] k0e3@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 day ago

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

[–] xep@fedia.io 31 points 2 days ago (1 children)

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.

Fuck yeahhh. Olive fetish.

[–] Dindonmasker@sh.itjust.works 11 points 2 days ago

As someone who loves olives and fries this looks delicious.

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

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

[–] BeardedGingerWonder@feddit.uk 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

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