Don't eat mayo

Most Americans cannot stand the thought of putting mayo on their fries. I learned to love it in Germany.
 
Talking about US military food. Many people (including me) thought that US military were supplied with FREE food. After all, you can go to a chow hall on a base anytime, as many times as you want. Not true, my daughters pay $350/month for that 'free" food.
And that FREE $400,000 per person insurance in case one dies while serving....They pay $20/month for that too.

Fries the dutch way ; Patat or friet = fries

Patat peciaal; fries with mayonaise, curry and chipped unions.
patatje oorlog (war); fries with mayonaise peanut sauce and chipped unions.

I prefer the "patatje oorlog"

There is a similar type of food in Canada called poutine (it is pronounced "putin" and is probably banned from the menu for sounding like a name of some president in the news).
 
Poutine = French Fries + Cheese curd + Gravy = Death
Putin = Death without the calories
:xd:

Thank goodness I only get to enjoy them every couple of years then. As vegetarian, my cholesterol level is normally under 3.5 so I can afford the odd treat!
