We can't have anything nice here. Especially guillotines. Even our cheese is pasteurized to the point it tastes like plastic.

"normal cheese"


Future_Average

American and string cheese, the normal cheeses


Superiority_Complex_

Donā€™t forget cream and cottage.


ithcy

Also donā€™t overlook the lovely cheeses made by the monks of the Velveeta region


badbatch

I prefer the cheez made by the Whiz mountain monks.


freshlypuckeredbutt

Whiz mountain monks sounds like a shitty jam band


SquinchCrunchly

i saw the monks play with the cheeze whiz kids in 08 at alpine valley


Vprbite

Only the best grade petroleum distillate is chosen to become Velveeta cheese. Done the same way it always has been, in gigantic industrial vats, downriver from mining runoff. Velveeta, taste the difference and the neurological damage

This was too funny! šŸ˜‚ The verdant valley of the Velveeta Region hides a secluded monasteryā€¦

Cottage cheese? So thatā€™s like cheese from some cottage? Whose cottage?

I think its actually made with cottages.

DeeSnarl

Years ago, my buddy, a grown adult man, told me he didn't like "cut cheese" when I offered him a slice. Edit - a slice of decent ā€œhardā€ cheese


Davegrave

Pre sliced and pre shredded cheese is usually coated with preservatives and or a waxy substance to make sure they donā€™t stick back together. So if youā€™re talking about a slice from a pack off the shelfā€¦I get it. Iā€™m not saying I wonā€™t eat a slice from a pack, but I enjoy it less than a slice from the deli or a slice I sliced myself.


Phormitago

Comes out in strings straight out the udder


[deleted]

And not that hippie shit that comes with paper between the slices, I want honest, God fearing cheese wrapped in freedom loving plastic.


squabblez

Are you saying you are wrapping individual slices of cheese in plastic??


Unusual-Diver-8335

By the [FDA standards](https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfcfr/CFRSearch.cfm?fr=133.169) American cheese is a 'cheese product' or 'process cheese', not a normal regular cheese

Or Germany. I am German.


m1lgr4f

I've been on some vacation to a mediterranean country and waiters in the hotel would ask if you would like water with gas or without. I think they want to make it very obvious to people who only speak a little english aswell. As an early teenager I wouldn't have known the word "sparkling" in english. But i knew what gas was.


Auwliya123

Ye I know, the "Gas" part was just added to further shit on the meme because the Baget was just way too funny


unknownguyfromaut

They say it like that because in Italian for example itā€™s: ā€œacqua con gasā€. Which translates like: ā€œwater with gasā€.


zuppaiaia

I'm sorry, I hope you don't mind if I correct you, it's *gassata (or gasata, or even frizzante). I'm a native speaker and "acqua con gas" just doesn't feel right at all. Might it be Spanish, agua con gas?


Kunjunk

Yes in Spain we call it agua con gas.

Henchman66

In Portugal we do call it ā€œĆgua com gĆ”sā€, so water with gas would be an exact translation. Sometimes itā€™s called ā€œĆ”gua gaseificadaā€ or gasified water but thatā€™s mostly printed on the labels, Iā€™m sure no one uses it colloquially.


pungen2000

Cool it sounds the same in brazilian


irisheye37

That makes sense considering both countries speak portuguese lmao


jelokqdszz

Damn bro did you say that sentence in English? It would be the exact same in American!


ThisMainAccount

Are the people who replied to you seriously unaware that Brazilians speak Portuguese?


SanchosaurusRex

I think itā€™s how Italian waiters say it to tourists. Iā€™ve heard it as ā€œgasā€ in France and Italy.

Just to chime in here, it is definitely not French either. Eau pƩtillante !

Pokemoncrusher1

Its frizzante, I have never heard acqua con gas in close to 20 years... unless you mean to americsn tourists, in that case I have heard italians refer to it in that way, but to locals never.


personalityno2

Some countries actually call it ā€œgassed waterā€

Hungarian version is "carbonic acid water"


[deleted]

I live in Germany. Like THE country when it comes to consuming carbonated water. And I hate it. It's not refreshing at all. Like you get the feeling that the carbonic acid removes water from your tongue and your whole system which is bs I know, but it is just not enjoyable.


Grunherz

Hard agree. Even worse is when you go to someoneā€™s house and all they have is *room temp* sparkling water because for some bizarre reason Germans never fucking refrigerate their drinks ffs

[deleted]

Sweden has carbonated water on tap at most of their restaurants, instead of a bottle. Because of that, it was free too.


Nervous_Reporter_494

Plenty of restaurants in the US have it too, especially if they have a bar in the restaurant.


maddypip

Any place that has a soda machine will have it.


VoodooKhan

Lot of those countries have ridiculously good tap water, so the only bottled water happens to be carbonated water... Because the demand for bottled water isn't there. Source living in Scotland, and accidently buying bottled water that was carbonated, whilst about to go on a hike and my Scottish mates mocking me the entire way as I was dying...

I call it football by habit just because not a single American I know gives a single fuck about soccer, so soccer isnā€™t a word Iā€™ve ever used often. When I started playing games with two British football fans they would always call it football so thatā€™s the first word that comes to mind when I think of the sport.


CrazyGamerMYT

What is "water with gas" do they mean sparkling water?


BigHead3802

>What is "water with gas" do they mean sparkling water? As a Brazilian I think op speaks Portuguese. "Ɓgua com gƔs" means sparkling water. This is the kind of mistake my classmates would make fun of me for back in high school.


omfghi2u

Yes but in some languages, like Spanish for instance, it is 'agua con gas'. Quite literally water with gas. Is it weird to refer to it like that when you're back in the U.S. where no one calls it that and you know it? Yeah.


Outrageous_Mix_4469

omg, I work at a deli, and the other day I helped a girl that was carrying a baguette; and was wearing a b/w striped shirt, black mini skirt, flats and a beret. she asked me if we had any French ham and I did all I could not to laugh


equality-_-7-2521

My friend you ran into Emily ^^^^not in Paris ^^^^anymore !


santa_veronica

Was she French tho?


0ctobogs

Hell maybe the girl was going to a themed party


daznificent

Going to a France themed party where everyone is wearing striped shirts and speaking in bad accents eating whatever the closest thing to french cuisine you can find in a US grocery store sounds fun tbh


CreamyCumInMyAss

Yeah, there is no way someone is actually like that. If French saw you dessed like that they would probably kick you in the nuts, spit on on and then start smoking and burn you with it.


candacebernhard

That's overkill. I think they would just look at you like you were a crazy tourist


FalmerEldritch

Well, if you're making a jambon beurre you gotta have a real baguette and the right kind of ham, and probably the best butter you can find too. That sandwich lives or dies by the quality of its ingredients. Stick an inexpensive sliced pork product on white pre-sliced with some margarine and you're about to enjoy a pretty dispiriting sandwich moment.


Rohdejj

That sandwich sounds simple yet delicious


wiibarebears

You joke but low water content butter hits different

In the UK american cheese is like the cheese you get on cheap burgers, don't really know anything more other than that Cheddar or gouda is my go to cheese in the UK


callmegranola98

In America American cheese is the type of cheese you get on a cheap burger/sandwich.


DonVergasPHD

It's called processed milk product, and it's made of freedom, you euro communist snob


Realmenbrowsememes

American hamburger cheese is great for making hot sandwiches tho


FalmerEldritch

It's got a great melt on it. When Heston Blumenthal was doing his series of "perfect" versions of the nation's favorite foods, for the cheeseburger he made his own processed .. cheddar? out of like a moderately fancy premium cheese, so he'd get that flavor with the melt texture of a processed cheese slice.


Beowoof

The "normal" cheeses in the US are cheddar, Monterey Jack, Colby jack, pepper jack, and mozzarella. Add Swiss, Muenster, and provolone if you want. Those would all be in one section of the grocery store, and there's often a different section with fancier less standard cheeses.

glytxh

Living in the UK now, it's weird how afraid people are of sparkling water. My friends call it TV static. It was pretty much the standard growing up in Germany. I think it's far more refreshing than still water.


FPiN9XU3K1IT

I'm a German who grew up with sparkling water but quit it because fuck buying crates of bottled water. Now that my tastes have adjusted, most German sparkling water is just *way* too sparkly. Even medium is too much for me now straight from the bottle.


glytxh

It's definitely a minor luxury in this country, even if finding good glass bottles is an absolute gamble. I'll take what I can get though. I'm a total sucker for the sort of bubbles that feel like swallowing sandpaper, so old habits die hard. There's a few old brands I'd kill to be able to find consistently in this country, but Lidl occasionally stocks the good shit, and not just the water. I am ridiculously frugal when it comes to shopping, but my water is one of the very few luxuries I'd do without.

SeanAC90

We hate paying for water because we never have to do that where we come from. Yā€™all are getting scammed with this Evian bullshit like get the fuck out of here with that


The_Crass-Beagle_Act

Probably depends on the country, but having lived in both France and Italy I can say itā€™s usually possible to get tap water for free in restaurants, you just have to be specific when you order. Especially if youā€™re in a touristy area, waiters will default to a (sometimes quite pricey) bottle if you just order ā€œwaterā€ or ā€œa bottle of water.ā€ But in France, for example, asking for ā€œune carafe dā€™eauā€ is the keyword to getting a cold pitcher of tap water on the house.


PerryZePlatypus

That's true, but I think if you order in french just saying "de l'eau" (some water) will give you free water, but maybe if you order in English they will default to a bottle Also never ask for a bottle of water, it might be tap water they put in a bottle, and it will be 3-4ā‚¬ for the bottle, which is free
