I can only imagine how badly English speakers butcher the pronunciation of Knorr.

Well, I can only imagine how (grammatically) bad some of my posts are .
But there really isn‘t much danger in saying „Knorr“. So just don‘t swallow the „k“ like in „know“. Instead make it sound as if it was „cnorr“ (think of Mike Knuble if it helps).

There was a Knorr Street where I grew up. Everybody essentially pronounced it like it rhymed with door.

Not particularly hard in the most part to pronounce streets/neighborhoods in Philly since mostly all of them derive from the early English settler days.

That's pretty much what I thought, although taking of German in high school helps there. I had the hardest time starting out though. Getting the habit of actually pronouncing every letter in a word was hard for me. For the longest time, I didn't actually say the '-e' when saying "Ich heiße SBA" which I know drove my teacher crazy, since he was German.

And yeah, that's what I expect from us dumb yankees. 'Nore', like snore without the s. I can't blame us too much, though. English is a silly language for silly people, and it's poisoned the language areas of our brains.

Ah high school German. Our teacher HATED us and it was reciprocated. By the end of four years, we had taken to calling him Herr täglish because his surname was Dailey and this was just close enough to “daily” for us to be jerks about it.

 

[Lord Defect]

I had my first air fried hotdog(s) today. It’s pretty close to a propane grilled hot dog, I recommend it. One with relish and spicy mustard, the other with red onion and bbq sauce. Home run. Or something. I’m not sure how to end this post.

 

[FlyerNutter]

Tell me about the food. Octopus in ... ?

Lentils, some finely diced up carrots/onion/cellery. Fermented chili. Pretty good base.

I am on my way!

I don’t know why but joes has a sandwich called a chazarma. I have not found another place that uses that name. The sandwich is a hot sausage covered in cheesesteak.
My local place was willing to make it. Pics coming shortly.

 

[Lord Defect]

They went a different route from my instructions. Rather than a hot sausage surrounded by cheesesteak, they made a cheesesteak with cut up hot sausage as a topping. I’m very ok with this.
I have had much better cheesesteaks, but I have to reach for Steve’s or angelos to beat this one.

I want to devour everything in this photo, including the plate and your thumb.

I figured it would all be way overcooked for you.

Not the thumb

 

[Lord Defect]

Not the thumb

I’m hot enough that I’m at least medium rare already.

Are those naked mole rats?

Yup. They're delicious with just a little salt.

Asiago and pepper stuffed chicken sausage.

Or mole rats for the heathens.

Mole rats are definitely on the menu though.
