Dicks and holes
A vehicle for salt.
Like spaghetti for sauce
Also what kind of container is that in?
Dont tell me only americans use styrofoam?!
Fries need to breathe. Cardboard container wrapped in paper, the holes carved on the top to avoid them becoming soggy.
No, but i’ve only seen this once.
Btw, microplastics.
Nah. Also in Germany styrofoam is used for take away by some places. But it really sucks from my perspective. If you put really hot stuff in it (like fries straight from the fryer) it may melt and your fries have plastic shit attached to them and, since it doesn’t allow condensate to exit the crispy food will turn soggy really fast. Carton is so much better from every perspective.
Luckily, legislation in the EU is trying to reduce single use plastics.

As someone who loves olives and fries this looks delicious.
Some cheese on top of that and you have a feast.
Add feta >> Greek poutine
I was just coming to the comments to mention that! I made it this last weekend. Fries are so good with feta cheese!
🤔
Feta and tzatziki or skordalia, squeeze a lemon on it. Now it’s Greek Poutine.
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.
That might explain why i hate them so much even though i love all other olives
That might explain why I only ever get the texture from olives on pizza…which is…actually still ok with me. Flavorless for sure but yum olive texture
The texture of canned “black olives” isn’t really all that different from most types, but they have a much weaker flavor because they are processed in a matter of days instead of weeks/months/years of the alternative methods. Those longer methods, usually some combinations of brine and/or fermenting are where most of that flavor comes from. I only know this because I had a grand idea to try to grow my own olives and I looked into it and realized I wasn’t ever going to end up with my own that resembled stuff from the store. This is just more random info hiding in my brain instead of things that would be useful on a daily basis.
Lol I went down that olive rabbit hole once during covid. So much more work than I thought
Hah, exactly when I did it
I believe thats any black olive thats not the wrinkly ones.
those are raisins, ramp
Italian Oil Cured Olives – Pickle Licious https://share.google/cfzpWxZeVuz7QHrL5
you think they may be wrinkly because they’re cured?
Yes, all olives are cured in some fashion. They’re very hard fresh from the tree.
that’s fair.
Are black-treated green olives cheaper than black olives or what?
i think so, actual black olives aren’t very popular so they’re harder to get
I just looked, here (Switzerland), black olives from Migros are more mild and throughout black, the real deal. Probably from Tessin or Italy. That’s why the coloring of green olives was news to me.
Most olives in supermarkets are like that.

It’s the same fruit, there’s no ‘black’ of ‘green’ olives. It’s just picked while unripe because it’s cheaper to process.
The blacks are more ripe tho. And the greens in brine, against the bitterness.
Edit: but most are colored with E579 or E585.
If it’s good enough for NASA, it’s good ebough for me
Just be careful in cold weather
Fuck yeahhh. Olive fetish.
Honestly, I’d eat this… I usually think British food is disgusting, but they have me with this one.
This would not be a common British food, no. I’m curious what British food you don’t like though?
Probably beans on toast.
Food of the gods!
Americans don’t have a good enough drinking culture to appreciate British food.
You ain’t never had an ice coooool budweiser with some gas station tornados… and it shows. Ain’t never even thought about a Mcflurry Mcdouble, or you’d have already transcended… into heart failure. Let freeeeedom ring mofukr!
lol!!
Would eat
Mate. It’s called pribbles and tarn, you dunce.
That’s more like it. “Nuts and bolts” makes way too much sense to be an actual British name.
Nuts and bolts sounds more like cockney rhyming slang for an electrical outlet. 230 volts -> bolts -> nuts and bolts
Proper scran, that
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!
Hmm… isn’t hoser like an insult?
Some people might use Scouser as an insult, but it’s just people from Liverpool.
Oi, I’m but a simple socialist who once lived in a commune, residing in the world’s newest fascistic regime! A few of us Yankees still read. I personally prefer to watch the beebs so I can keep up with current trends such as Cockney rhyming slang.
He said “I love fries.” and got misheard.
“I’ll have fries”
that’s british poutine
poo-tin
We just call it cheesy chips with gravy.
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.
I thought nuts and bolts was chex mix with cheerios and pretzel sticks
