My POV while reading this post (I have not gone swimming today)

[-] BrokenGlepnir@lemmy.world 27 points 4 days ago

The chips go in the sandwich. Also I don't know how to swim.

[-] ickplant@lemmy.world 12 points 4 days ago

I thought I was the only one! You put them in the middle then press it slightly so they go “crunch” a little. Yum!

[-] Sixtyforce@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 days ago

Less messy too when it's white bread getting tacky in a ziplock baggy in a warm backpack. The chips adhere like glue.

Summers at various lakes memories.

[-] sailorzoop@lemmy.librebun.com 12 points 4 days ago

Go swim if you have the means to do so!

[-] Zomg@lemmy.world 18 points 3 days ago

You put some of those chips in those sandwiches and youre cookin'

[-] barsoap@lemm.ee 26 points 4 days ago

French fries is the standard German pool food. Like, nowhere else do you see stands selling nothing but fries (with ketchup and/or mayo, of course). And they just don't taste as good anywhere else, I guess it's the chlorine in the air making the salt taste extra special without actually tasting more salty.

[-] Akasazh@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

As a swamp German, this is how we do it, too. Aside from ketchup/mayo we use curry gewurtz (Hela) and mayo on there, with some diced onion.

Ah, Frikandel then? Sorry, I was thinking about Austria, where Bosna is a similar snack. But yeah, swamp German should have tipped me off. 😅

My dad: "The plain peanut butter sandwiches will continue until morale improves."

[-] simplejack@lemmy.world 27 points 4 days ago

My dad: “boiled hotdogs in store-brand white bread are what the real athletes eat.”

[-] tooclose104@lemmy.ca 9 points 4 days ago

I nuke mine, but otherwise, ya

[-] Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 7 points 4 days ago

But when you boil them, the bread gets all saturated with hotdog water. You’re missing out.

[-] simplejack@lemmy.world 7 points 4 days ago

I like nuked food

You've committed a crime against gaming here today.

[-] MelodiousFunk@slrpnk.net 3 points 3 days ago

Not just gaming, but the women and children too.

And it was damn good. What’s that German saying? “Hunger makes the best sauce”? When you’re really hungry this is five Michelin star good.

[-] Chee_Koala@lemmy.world 14 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

In dutch they say: "Hunger makes raw beans taste sweet"!

when packing up after windsurfing, they would advise against taking your trapeze off (a huge belly belt that can connect you to the sail, handsfree!) before you had access too food, because more often then not, it would unleash the hunger beast within. It was fun to have that power over your own hunger! GIMME THOSE SWEET BEANS!

[-] gigachad@sh.itjust.works 3 points 3 days ago

As a German I never heard that sentence before but it's hilarious lol

Nachos, super rope, and ice cream at the pool concession stand.

[-] Shawdow194@fedia.io 20 points 4 days ago

Wet pool hand nachos is bringing back core memory

[-] Squeezer@lemmy.world 16 points 4 days ago

We had a fish and chip shop opposite the pool. I don’t think I have eaten anything better than those salty vinegary chips, the childish exhaustion and hunger made them absolutely magical.

[-] MelodiousFunk@slrpnk.net 8 points 3 days ago

Is that a Hawaiian coke can?

Man, now I want some Mexican coke. Fuck HFCS.

[-] markovs_gun@lemmy.world 12 points 4 days ago

Dude it still does. Try that shit man a big shitty sandwich and chips fucking goes hard

[-] uienia@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago

Is there a specific reason that type of food is only available after swimming?

[-] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 6 points 3 days ago

For me it was vending machine peanuts, because that's what they had in the swimming pool building

[-] klemptor@startrek.website 12 points 4 days ago

Man for me it was that $1.25 pool stand hot dog

[-] simplejack@lemmy.world 12 points 4 days ago

Swimming lessons at Costco.

[-] Pnut@lemm.ee 4 points 3 days ago

Whenever we watch old home movies all I can think of is the food. You know what it tasted like and in certain cases it's never been the same. There's one video of me walking around naked in a cowboy hat (I was 4) at lunch time and all I can think of when I see it is "I want that sandwich, I remember that sandwich". Anyways, this picture is tasty. It brought back some memories. Clearly.

Curious about different after pool cuisines around the globe. Didn't really realise every country could have a different take

[-] win95@lemmy.zip 10 points 3 days ago

Fries & mayonaise slaps (Netherlands)

[-] Sixtyforce@sh.itjust.works 9 points 4 days ago

Past tense? Get back in there!

[-] Szewek@lemm.ee 8 points 4 days ago

I don't get it, why you have a line of crisps next to the sandwich? And why would you have cold food with cola?

[-] 1024_Kibibytes@lemm.ee 12 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

The crisps were there because they had salt and fat. This was typical food for children after swimming. The cold food is because it was 30-40°C outside.

[-] Glitterbomb@lemmy.world 10 points 4 days ago

Does soda have pairings like wine? I had no idea, I just cracked open sodas. What kinda faux pas have I been doing all my life? Oh God, is everyone looking at me weird when I drink soda wrong?

[-] notabot@lemm.ee 8 points 4 days ago

Oh God, is everyone looking at me weird when I drink soda wrong?

If you're not holding it in the crook of your elbow, lifting your arm, and pouring it onto your outstretched tongue, then at least one of us is doing it wrong, and I think it's you, and everyone is silently judging you for your weird way of drinking. They don't drink with their elbows probably because they don't want to embarass you.

[-] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Is there a country that likes soup pool side? It's like your food is a hot tub!

[-] Contemporarium@lemm.ee 2 points 3 days ago

Never ruin a thread like this again.
