Japan putting ketchup on spaghetti: "Hold my sake."
What other condiment can you put on there? Mayonaisse?
Meanwhile, Korea is doing crimes by adding corn and/or potatoes on their pizza.
Japan doesn't do potatoes but corn on pizza is popular. I'm willing to tolerate a lot of different toppings but for some reason corn just seems wrong to me
My local pizza place (in Japan) puts corn on pineapple pizza.
I might be a degenerate that enjoys pineapple on pizza, but corn is a strong no
I mean, I've seen plenty of Brazilians doing that for years, too.
Frenchies are doing it as well
What? Putting ketchup on spaghetti is 100% normal everywhere...
Absolutely not. Granted, my country is right next to Italy, but I've only ever heard about spaghetti with ketchup on the internet, from people from other countries.
I grew up with a lot of Italian cooking and when I first went to Japan I saw a small pile of spaghetti in one of the bento lunch boxes covered with what I thought was marinara sauce. When I ate it and it turned out to be ketchup I almost spit it on the floor in shock.
Interesting...it is extremely normal in all the Scandinavian countries, and I've encountered it a lot in Germany and Netherlands as well. I never thought it was considered strange. I ate it a lot as a kid 30 years ago.
Funnily I also haven't heard much good about Scandinavian cuisine
Would've expected more from Germany though. On the other hand, they do eat Schnitzel mit Tunke...
Schnitzel is a Swiss thing that the Germans adopted (and did not improve).
Funnily I also haven't heard much good about Scandinavian cuisine
Some very famous Michelin restaurants in Europe are based on Scandinavian cuisine...Noma and The alchemist come to mind
