I just found out the original recipe didn't have anchovies in it. Some sick fuck came along and said to themselves I wonder if I can hide this fish paste in a salad
19 3 ReplyI have never seen anchovies in a Caesar salad. Is it a regional thing?
Edit: It's in the dressing, right. My bad.

Actually the title was named after Caesar to mean emperor after his death. It was so influential that many languages use this word as well. Famous examples would be Tzar in Russian or Keiser in German.

Btw: Pronouncing 'C' as 'ts / z' instead of 'k' has been a Germanic thing already back then.6 0 Reply
