The UK loves salt and vinegar. Its one of the top three of any range int he UK and Ireland, and putting salt and vinegar on chips is pretty common, however in most of continental europe, the idea of putting vinegar on chips is revolting.

I’ve always heard it was The Netherlands (Dutch). But not very knowledgeable about this…
I shouted "Kut zooi, tyfus kut hoeren sleutel."
I have cooled down. Now I can laugh about it.
Sometimes you just have to nod and pretend like what they said wasn’t absolutely insane. 😭🙏
I don't mean things like "don't ask a woman her age and a man his salary" but something you wouldn't talk about even in general (e.g. sex, bodily functions, deaths, etc.)?
I hate to admit that food is almost becoming a luxury: factoring that a few groceries are being sold at exuberant prices.
A single tomato in Kenya goes for about $0.19 from $0.12 and a kilogram costs upto $0.77. A 100kg crate upped from ~$50 to ~$140. Considering currency differences this is pinch for the common person here in Kenya.
What groceries have gone up in your country?
When I communicate in English, I become more logical and emotionless. I don't feel much even if someone said vulgar words to me. But in my language it's easy to feel sad or angry if someone says "shine (die)" to me. Do you feel the same?
And I assumed it's because of the 2 reasons.
Nature of English as a language (probably the same goes to languages like German because it feels very logical).
I have not used English enough to really "feel" it. I haven't lived an actual life via English language.
What's your thought?
There’s a famous thought experiment by John Rawls called the ‚Veil of Ignorance’ where you imagine creating a society’s rules before knowing your own class, race, talents, etc.
If you didn’t know whether you’d be rich or poor, healthy or sick, privileged or marginalized what policies and principles would you come up with to make society as just as possible?
What are the alternatives to therapy in your country?
Bali
We have jokes like, “Ask a foreign tourist in Bali where Indonesia is! They’ll be confused.”
I used to think this was just some silly stereotype, but it turns out it’s true. Foreigners know Bali better than they know Indonesia; they even think Bali is a country. It’s really funny, lol
E.g. depictions of knights fighting snails from medieval Europe. Which I believe still isn't fully understood.
This doesnt have to actually be the second biggest city but just the city that has that title like Chicago in the United States.
Me first, I speak Russian, Vietnamese, English, and Belarusian
