I'm Like It's Literally In The Name So It Is What It Is....

I wonder what she'd think if she saw Wienerschnitzel on a restaurant menu?

[BoSoxGal]

Surely she was being ironic.

This is what I choose to believe.

Or just playing dumb, like some people did on the old Jay-walking on the tonight show (you don't get on TV if you answer the question correctly).

But in either case, she was doing it quite well; I was pretty convinced she was that stupid. I honestly hope I was fooled.

Econonline, I suspect the speaker would have no idea that the name refers to cutting up a person from Austria. But I do wonder what she does with French Fries.

Then again, English does have the habit of giving particular names to food made from animals, so we can pretend it is not that. But we are ready to admit to eating chicken, duck, turkey, lamb. We do strange thing with 'veal' but accept 'calf liver' I guess it all comes down to the problem that using logic will not get you very far in understanding people.

But this clip does act to reinforce my judgement that Tik Toc is bad. (a fine example of blaming the messenger)

The above video above came from X but I found it on YouTube so I could post it here. Now she has a follow up video that I can only find on X. I don't know if you'll be able to see it without signing up but here's the link.

I can't find her name so I don't know if she has more videos on any other video streaming websites.

Yes Joe, except for what is the explanation for the tiktok logo that appears under the speaker in the video you post at the head of this thread?

Snalgate.

I first discovered the video on Twitter but it was a re-post, not placed there by the person who is in the video. Since there is no way to copy and post a Twitter video here, I did a search on YouTube and found the video shown in my opening post. That video looks as though it was copied and pasted on YouTube from Tik Tok by someone who uses the handle "NursingMoma". I think it probably originated on Twitter but I'm not sure.

I was pretty convinced she was that stupid. I honestly hope I was fooled.

Me too.

I wonder if she'd say that "vegetarian burgers" are made from ground-up vegetarians?

[BoSoxGal]

Mmm, ground up vegetarians - nom nom - grass fed flesh, delish!

[Burning Petard]

Has the board of Rabbis ruled on whether or not it is ok to put mayonnaise and cheese on an impossible burger?

Wonderful. Now I can offer my observant Jewish friends a nicely grilled cheeseburger with mayo, but keep the hotdogs away.

40 years ago, the makers of A.1. steak sauce asked — and answered — this same question.

I wonder if this lady was ever told how hamburger got its name?

There is a disagreement, but I contend that hamburger is a sausage. There are only two requirements for a sausage; it has to be a ground meat and spiced. Hamburger is ground beef and is spiced with salt and pepper, so it's a sausage. Therefore, it's not surprising that it comes from the sausage capital of the world and is named after one of Germany's major port cities, Hamburg.

I love sausages; I have yet to meet a decent sausage I did not like. I love them all from the humble hot dog wiener to Bologna; one of my favorites is bratwurst. There's only two that are on my naughty list that's liverwurst and blood sausage, but let's don't get disgusting.
