Melange means mix or blend. Melanger is the verb, meaning mixing.

Omg what is up with the chairdogs

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

What’s chairdog?

what do you mean nobody talks about it? they call it "the spice melange" all the time so even if you have no concept of French you know that it's being called a spice.

But without knowledge of French how would you know it's "variety"?

With knowledge of French, I know it’s not variety. I do not mean to shock everyone, but this meme is not correct.

Caucasian pepper, BIPOC, or one of those desegregated peppers?

The ones that come in the packet at McDonalds.

Why does no one talk about this?

Idk, because it's not that interesting

A spice mix is the life.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

I think about it all the time, actually

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

Maybe because it's too obvious?
