TIL about the Volkswagen sausage.

[–] moakley@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

More popular than bratwurst? I guess maybe that could be true somewhere, but I've never heard of that VW sausage before, and I've had bratwurst many, many times outside of Germany.

I'm just kidding. Everyone who took German instead of Russian in school knows about bratwurst at least. But very few places around me serve it. VW Currywurst is more famous among car guys, but it's because of the meme status rather than how good it is or isn't.

However grilled sausage is super popular here and it's not too different from bratwurst I guess. We're very fond of grilling here, personally I usually spend all 3 days of summer on grilling and alcohol.

Nah, the Spanish and Italians have way better sausages.

Eh what? Not the same kind of sausages I think. Spain and Italy have the dry meat type and Germany has the uncooked type. Very different culinary experiences. I tend to agree with you though.

I don't like fennel.
