  Any food in the US that’s qualified with <nationality> will typically baffle anyone of said nationality.

    That’s true in every country, you should see “pizza Americana” or “American fried rice”.

      Or you know, watch the comment section of most Spanish omelette or paella videos. I’m there on the omelette comments btw, it’s not that fucking hard why do everyone fuck it up.

        You know that there’s basically one paella recipe per Spanish village, right (if not more)?

        They’re only fucking it up if they’re trying and failing to make a specific thing, not just because they thing they make offends you.

      Hell, it’s true just traveling across the US. Try “Phildadelphia Cheeseteak” a few hours’ drive out of Philly. They’ll ask if you want marinara.

        Accurate but I was trying to expand beyond “Americans using food words wrong”. (Also, “wrong” is culture purity nonsense in this context. Food and language evolve and that’s fine.)

      Reminds me of how Germans still have this image of America being full of cowboys with six shooters on their hips.

      Fellow 'muricans: if you ever get a visitor from Germany, take them to a Wild West reenactment. They will NEVER forget.

  If you served this in Sweden you’d get angry side glances and passive aggressive snorts.

    My bet would be just plain confusion - “why are you calling them Swedish meatballs if you don’t make them like meatballs are made in Sweden?”

  Looks like a Polish thing, pulpety w sosie koperkowym.

  Seems like they probably skipped the broth. Looks basically just beschemel, though, being generous, it may have a bit of mustard, sour cream, and/or some herbs mixed in.
