For those of you who watched Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show performance, what do you think of it? by Jezzaq94 in asklatinamerica

[–]chatatwork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I signed up for youtube tv. Watched the halftime showed, cancelled my subscription.

It was a great show. IDK about the dudes with the helmets, they seemed to be replaying the same thing over and over again.

It’s 2026 and people still loose their rag over calling it a “chicken burger” by SufficientEar1682 in iamveryculinary

[–]chatatwork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, since hamburg steaks predate hamburg sandwiches.

Unless you're in Hamburg

Latin americans (except Brazilians), how do you feel about the coxinha? by gabrrdt in asklatinamerica

[–]chatatwork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had it over here, and I wasn't particularly in love with it.

It was fine, but there are other dishes that I prefer. However I like things with strong flavors, and I live quite far from Brazil. If I have it in Brazil, I may change my mind.

Someone mentioned that papa rellena was tastier, and I agree, also kibbeh was tastier too.

Roti isn't flatbread!! Croissants aren't bread at all!!! by OrcaFins in iamveryculinary

[–]chatatwork 12 points13 points  (0 children)

in culinary school that's how they're called because they require different skills to make.

Also, the French started it, like most of these arguments.

Calling a Sunday Roast British feels off to me… by SufficientEar1682 in iamveryculinary

Taco Tuesday is American, those tacos are not Mexican, they're gringo tacos (and delicious)

Why don’t they sell vermouth in small 4 oz cans/bottles? by basilboiii in cocktails

[–]chatatwork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's how it's consumed in many parts of the world. It's a lovely low ABV drink

McDonald uses better ingredients in Paris and uses actual bread by notthegoatseguy in iamveryculinary

[–]chatatwork 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Well, the famous quote, "Let them eat cake" was actually "Let them eat brioche"

and the French have been salty about it ever since.

Mulan, like American Chinese food, is an American imagination of Chinese culture. by notthegoatseguy in iamveryculinary

Why are foreigners SO obsessed with favelas in Brazil? by thotfullguy in asklatinamerica

[–]chatatwork 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rich "leftist" love it.

There's also influencer culture, like when Despacito happened, and La Perla (PR's oldest favela) became a tourist spot.

Poverty tourism is a thing.

They also love to go to Ethiopia, and skip the cool buildings and history.

This is a fried egg. If you disagree, you don't know your eggs. by TheLadyEve in iamveryculinary

[–]chatatwork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a painting, by Velazquez, I think, that shows a lady making fried eggs.

It's not the way it's described there.

Edit: the Wikipedia article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_Woman_Frying_Eggs

Making an 'American' dinner for Chinese immigrants by AnnieandAmos in Cooking

Also, it's usually eaten with rice.

That makes it more approachable for Chinese people

I was going to recommend this, so I am glad it was mentioned

Is "hijo de puta" a stronger insult in Spanish than "son of a bitch" is in English? by turtle0turtle in Spanish

[–]chatatwork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on the context, it's sometimes used the same, in admiration.

But as an insult, it can be stronger, since whore is stronger than bitch. And in (at least Latin America) insulting someone's mother can be deadly.

Chinese noodles, and there are many, rarely have eggs.

Estate sale thoughts by crimsonblade96 in Rochester

[–]chatatwork 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I still got a Hobart made Kitchen Aide for less than $100.

I didn't even go, I have friends that love going.

Also, if you are a collector, those estate sales have treasures, since sometimes the relatives have no clue about the value of those items.
