As a German I can confirm Towels dipped in mayonnaise. Those tiny towels for just washing your hands are the best!

In the southwest they sometimes use vinegar and herbs and in Hesse (central DE) they have Grie Soß (which no-one understands). Sadly those differences are fading due to TV propaganda.

Mein Gott, jetzt habe ich Hunger auf enorme Badehandtücher mit Mayonnaise. Vielen Dank auch.

It's an aquired taste.

Also it doesn't have to be from enemies.

Some prefer grovbrød with brunost.

I can taste when they serve me friendly bonedust. It's like eating farse anywhere else than Jæren.

I was told americans parents usually put a few bullets under their kid's eggs, so that they get use to it.

I always hated when Gramps made the breakfast. Always tasted like lead and a dentist visit...

As a German I can say it's quite accurate, though I'd expect most Germans to prefer Remoulade over Mayonnaise.

French Canadian here, according to the rest of Canada I have cigarettes and baguettes for breakfast but I can't confirm since I'm always drunk, high and intolerant.

They obviously don’t know about your incredibly good sense of humour. :-D

I'd expect the crushed up bones of their enemies to be more of a Finnish thing. Which is also why I'm glad they're on our side.

This is not accurate at all. Germans don't need breakfast. And now get back to work!

In Germany they also have breakfast for dinner (Abendbrot, literally evening bread).

6

Breakfast for dinner is also super common in the USA, sometimes called Brinner.

Ironically Breakfast for dinner is the kind of breakfast that most people don't have for breakfast most of the time (pancakes, french toast, fried or scrambled eggs, assorted meats, etc) so having it as dinner occasionally is actually more fitting in some ways.

Most Americans eat the equivalent of cereal and coffee or no breakfast and just coffee most days. I myself almost never have breakfast. It's sort of like a full English in the UK, most people aren't eating that everyday.

It sounds more fun translated. Like the German breakfast, "das Frühstück" would be "early piece".

American here. Can confirm that Germans have towels dipped in mayonnaise for breakfast

Mac and Cheese is literally a bog-standard gratin with Mornay sauce. If the British claim is to have downgraded it by replacing all the veggies with straight carbs then I guess yeah we'll have you let that one.

Wth is gratin. Edit gratin is a cooking technique looking into it not a food item

Mac and cheeses origins ordinate back to the 14 hundreds as a meal most commonly found in the uk and Italy

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macaroni_and_cheese?wprov=sfla1

The modern recipe for the mac and cheese we all love and enjoy nowadays was invented in uk in 1716 invented by a housekeeper and published in her book The Experienced English Housekeeper.

No. Well maybe in the Anglosphere. In Germany you're more likely to see Gratin de chou-fleur, that is, broadly speaking, replace all the macaroni with cauliflower, than Mac&Cheese. If you're being lazy just use a package of frozen veggies, those cauliflower-carrot-pea-butter-spices boxes. Add a potato or two if you want carbs. If you want cheesy comfort pasta there's either proper Carbonara, or a cream and cheese sauce, more or less exactly South Tyrol style.

Look at Mr/Ms Moneybags here, able to afford toast AND beans. With the current inflation, most of us are just eating sadness for breakfast.

That's tea FFS, who has that kind of money to spend on breakfast. It's reconstituted pork sausages and blood pudding for breakfast.

Just because it doesn't mention that the paint they eat in Japan comes from a vending machine? It's a pretty minor thing to skip over. One could argue it was implied!

Question is, where do Japanese vending machines come from?

They are creations of Japanese nature. Like birds of animals.

I see what you're saying, but I raise you this, it it was meant as a joke, why is the American one the only normal one? Oh that's right, lack of self-awareness.

Oh come on that was the most obvious part of the joke:

Triggering people like you who are angry that so much of the Internet is American.

Who's lacking self-awareness now?

Could've made it any number of silly, funny things. But no, you had to go for the "joke" that is.. checks notes.. "triggering people like you".

Cool joke bud.
