@boomzilla The shop appears defunct. I can't imagine why.

I'm not sure what this is. But I'm sure it belongs here.

Looks like a variation on a pizza roll.
-
@Dragoon Bitterballen are a deep-fried snack with a breadcrumb covering, usually with a thick meaty stew as filling. I have no idea how something pizza-based would work.
-
Just going off the box cover, they look like meat, cheese and tomatoes. That can easily be rolled with breadcrums and deep-fried.

Bitterballen are tasty. I've no idea how pizzabitterballen works but I'm intruiged.
edit: it's Dr Oetker though, so it probably doesn't work very well
-
Yeah, looking around the web they are just cheese balls (in this case with salami and seasoning) breaded and deep-fried.
Can't say anything about these specific ones, but in general those types of things (various deep-fried cheese balls) are damn tasty and for bonus points you can literally feel your arteries clog and your heart strain as you eat them.

Very not on my diet.
-
@Dragoon Well I won't be trying them, but that's also due to my lactose intolerance.
I also posted it because I liked the commercial, particularly the Italy section ("First pineapple and now this?").

Like a pizza roll! Or like deep fried ravioli. Sounds good.

Seen on another site (which was discussing Finns, licorice, and pregnancy):
Fun fact: if you're pregnant, and want to follow best practice, you can avoid drinking alcohol and avoid consuming licorice at the same time by specifically not drinking salmiakki-infused vodka: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salmiakki_Koskenkorva
(If you're not pregnant, and have no other risk factors, you owe it to yourself to try this dark nectar of the gods if you get the chance)
Um....

The Scotch Egg can cause these effects by mere visual inspection, mind.

Salmiak is best with capsicum, for balance.

Salmiakki is very good at removing the taste of alcohol. And it's tasty.

I can just add more alcohol, I guess...

And that's for any black licorice; adding NH4Cl to it just makes it even more vomitous.

I bought about half a kilo of salmiakki black licorice to Mexico. The halfling natives everywhere leave out to me, any other kind of candy out of Sweden is highly coveted and will mysteriously vanish even if I don't eat it.

@Benjamin-Hall So is surströmming, allegedly, but that doesn't mean it's a taste I want to experience.

I think you mentioned the wrong person. Because I agree--I have no desire to taste either samalyucki or rotten-lye-fish

@Benjamin-Hall It is tasty — just not in a pleasant way.

Surströmming is pretty similar to any pickled herring in flavor. That is, close to snot in texture, flavor and consistency. So quite horrible. But if you like pickled herring and can stand the smell, you'd probably like surströmming.

No, no, and no.

Well, there's yogurt, I suppose. At least the less-spicy yogurts.

But that was a fun blog - wish I didn't trust whatever-popular-image-service at the time with my photos

Maybe I should go and report it in our "Killed by Google" thread, if I find the courage...

Fastidious, finicky, spoiled, posh, choosy, fussy, picky Amerikano. Pickled herring is good.

Which pickle? With extra onion, dill, curry sauce or mayo? Fried or not? (There are many sorts of pickled herring, and I like almost all of them. But not surströmming.)

That's practically impossible. Even strictly counting acid curing, ketchup and Tabasco sauce are both pickled. If alkaline brine cures count, olives are pickled. Wine-cured salami seems to count as pickled. Freaking mustard is pickled.

None of those are herring though.

Is herring pickled in ketchup a red herring?

Hey, at least the linked "Lakritzlikör" looks good. Probably best when cooled below 0°C. Wouldn't drink more than one shot per decade, but don't knock it completely.

@topspin I gotta say, I'd eat it. The cut on the carrot inspires (probably undue) confidence.

What's the connection between being poor and aspic?
-

It's a dumb joke, I don't need reasons for it.
But I do assume that it's some kind of poor people food (i.e. you can't afford to waste anything, and the aspic makes for filler) that people only like because they've grown accustomed to it. Like black pudding. Yuck. You can't tell me that people would like that if it hadn't come from a time of need.Anyway, I might be wrong, but that's not gonna stop me.

Nah, it's traditional, no correlation to wealth AFAIK. Made with prime ingredients it's really good. You can find it in fancy restaurants too.

You have poor taste. Mind you, there's a lot of variation in black puddings, from very plain to highly spiced.
