Always makes me laugh when the country that sells "cheese" in spray cans or as plastic slices calls other countries' food bad.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Laugh while you can. Shelf stable cheese is going to be real handy when WW3 breaks out.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Tbh when ww3 breaks out I'd rather not also be subjected to spray cheese

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago

Yeah, that's like saying when there's food shortages at least you'll have pepper spray to flavour your sawdust.

No. This is more like Cold War II.

It's the same universe though, and the studios mostly collaborate on the overarching story.

I think the big team up event is going to be a big disappointment though. Too many characters to follow all the storylines, and you have to watch the shows too if you really want to keep up.

The whole thing doesn't seem very inviting to new audiences.

I think the next big one will finally deal with all the power creep. It'll set the surviving characters back a couple dozen decades and move onto smaller-stake, personal conflicts.

Barely anyone outside of Philly eats spray cheese regularly

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Do you think everyone in the UK eats spotted dick/spotted dog regularly?

You guys always miss the point, we have your cheese, and our cheese, and synth cheese, and any other cheese you want. Imported European cheese? Yep. Craft cheeses from Wisconsin? Any kind you can think of. Cow, goat, buffalo, sheep, cashew, chicken, fire-ant, whatever. I can go to Costco and get a 72lb wheel of Parmigiano reggiano, aged 2 years, shipped to my door within a few days. I can go to town and visit a number of delis and get a pound of anything sliced fresh. I can go to the grocery chain store and get a presliced pound or go to their full in store deli for more options. If I'm having a burger I might go for the classic American cheese slices. We also have a cheese flavored product in a can that is good when you are tired of living. You have only high quality cheese because there isn't room on your tiny European shelf for the sheer variety of bullshit we also have.

...do you think supermarkets and online retail only exist in the US?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

Internet Europeans seem to think we don't have bakeries or breweries or dairy...ies... so it's only fair to assume the inverse.

[–] JungleJim 3 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

No, but you guys seems to think we only are aware of craft singles and can cheese. That's our lowest level of cheese. I was trying to explain that despite your opinions, we actually do have food here.

Edit: Saying "we actually have that too" doesn't mean in any way "Europe has no grocery stores". I thought you guys had the good schools?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

You literally said we have small shelves that can't have a wide range of food. Read your own comment lol

Did you even go to school?

[–] JungleJim 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I also said we had cheese made of fire ant milk. Google hyperbole, then get back to me.

Of course I went to school, I'm an American, where do you think I learned to bar the door from gunmen?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

In other words, nothing you said had any point then

[–] JungleJim 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Oh sorry for not being serious enough in the memes community. I'll be sure to bring my dissertation next time about how your mom sucked me good and hard through my jorts.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Aw sorry for upsetting you, little man. You have like, really cool supermarkets, or whatever it is you wanna hear

[–] MrScottyTay 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

What about Wensleydale and cranberries. That's the best cheese

[–] JungleJim 5 points 10 months ago

I hadn't heard of that kind but it's pretty! A quick search says I could get it at Walmart. I personally prefer not to shop there but that means it's probably available somewhere else. I'll be sure to try it some time, thank you for the tip
