I had a European friend complain that Americans are so egocentric that they call their music "Country Music." He was also mad we put mayonaise on a pasta and call it a salad.
I am also mad about the second part.
If you want rage, Midwesterners put marshmallows in pistachio pudding and call it salad.
Green Fluff is just a derivative of Ambrosia, which is very much a Southern-States creation. We Midwesterners simply made it better. /j
Jokes aside, my grandmother used to make her own homemade cherry ambrosia. That recipe is lost with Dementia (she never wrote it down either, heh) so I'll probably never have Pink Fluff that good again. Don't knock it 'til you try it.
Pistachio pudding sounds amazing
It's a great dessert. But Midwesterns treat it exactly like a lettuce salad. Like you go to a buffet and people will put pistachio/marshmallow pudding on their plate next to their steak.
I never cared for it. Green jello pudding and I've never seen pistachios in it
Oh that sounds a lot worse than what I imagined
I mean, you'd have to taste it for yourself. I didn't like it but you may, you know?
ETA: here is a recipe in case you're interested

I was about to comment the same thing.
What did you eat today?
Oh just some salad
The salad
Do they not use the word country as a synonym for rural? I checked the Cambridge dictionary, it's their second definition listed, even higher than where that definition is listed in Merriam Webster. It's like complaining rock music is made with guitars instead of boulders. Does he also think that country is like the only genre of music made in America? Though some country singers do like to put a lot of nationalism in their music which does kind of confuse things.
I'm a firm mayo by itself as a sauce hater though so I'm with him there. Even more abominable are the jello (or jelly for those in the UK) "salads." It's not a salad!
I think maybe he was just making a joke.
But Germans have litterally every kind of salad.
Germans will literally put mayonnaise on sliced sausage and call that a salad.

So it's the same idea as tuna salad?
Pretty similar, yeah.
TWO salads*
There’s also Ochsenmaulsalat which is basically just thinly sliced beef mouth with vinaigrette and onions.
I've never heard of "beef mouth" as a cut of meat. What meat is it from? Tongue, cheek, etc...
I love beef cheek if it's cooked right. Low and slow.
And I’m not super familiar with cuts of the head but it’s gotta be check because tongue would be a different word.
It could be lips, also. I have seen beef lips in one of my local carnecerias (Mexican meat market).
That’s a rather strange word to use in the context of beef, because they don’t really have anything resembling human lips. Which part of this, exactly, would you consider “lips”?
I think mouth, or perhaps snout, is a more accurate description here. Anyways, that’s the picture I found on Wikipedia when I looked for more information on where this meat might come from. Apparently it can also include the inner parts of the mouth, however, not the tongue, that’s considered a separate cut.
I'm nit entirely sure but when I saw the package of meat in the grocery store it said "beef lips" and had a stringy looking meat inside. I assume it is the lower lip since the upper seems too small for what I saw.
The recipe you've linked has more than two ingredients. To say that it's 'mayo on sliced sausage' is misleading. We Germans are a smidgen more sophisticated than that.
The onions are optional (frankly never heard of it being used Fleischsalad although it could give it a nice bite), pickle juice and sugar is just used flavor the mayo, salt and pepper to taste is standard for pretty much anything savory. The only REAL other ingredient here are the pickles.
So yes, Mr. German Police, you’re technically correct (of course), but I will count this as an off by one since you COULD just put the sausage, pickles, and mayo together and already have a decent approximation of the dish.
I'm off by one, you're off by one - shall we split the difference and I'll overlook that even being merely technically correct I'm still closer than you, who's both technically and objectively incorrect?
C'mon, no cop is going to give you that deal.
People like you are literally the reason I don't live in Germany anymore.
You sound like the kind of person who'd chew out his neighbor if their kids make as much as a peep during Mittagsruhe but start mowing the lawn at 7am simply because it's legal.
Wow, you have even less of a sense of humour than the average German.
Enjoy your two-ingredient Fleischsalat.
Says the guy who literally got his panties in a twist because I forgot to mention the pickles in a Fleischsalat while making a JOKE.
I pointed out that your JOKE was shit. You're the one who started calling me names, so don't lecture me on twisted knickers.
The only thing I called you was "German Police", are you telling me that's an insult? I thought the police were a respectable and upstanding part of the German people and steadfast protector of Recht und Ordnung.
Come on man, if I had tried to insult you I'd have chosen completely different words, like Fleischsalatnazi, Korinthenkacker, or Oberstudienrat. But I was merely making fun of your complete and utter inability to take a joke because it forgot to mention the obligatory pickles, which, let's be clear, is simply a wonderful example of why Germans are widely regarded to have absolutely zero sense of humor.
Yeah, I don't get that one either. As a German I've seen plenty of "Nudelsalate" which have pasta and mayonnaise.
That second one is absolutely disgusting.
It's not a reason to get mad, though.
