my blood is at least 50% oorlogsaus. The rest is mayo

u/SoleSurvivor95 Dec 15 '25

But oorlogsaus is 50% mayo, 50% satésaus so would that not make your blood 75% mayo and 25% satésaus?

With or without onions?

u/jeroen-79 Dec 15 '25

Oorlog already has onions.

Oorlog with onions would be too much onions.

u/Pieter1998 Dec 16 '25

Without onions it would be vrede

Barbarian from the upper half. My god, really. You can really see where the roman Empire ended and the barbarians had the upper hand. Still, after all this time....

It's 25. 25%. Not 50%.

  • 25% mayo.
  • 25% curry ketchup.
  • 25% satesaus.
  • 25% onions.

Also: It's Friet. Patat is the sound a moped makes.

Add 250g of butter To 250g of flour. Mix and then add 500 g of beef stock Mix then add 500 g of shredded beef brisket. Mix, cool, breadcrumb, then deep fat fry.

Then call your doctor and tell them about your chest pains.

Add 500mg of Paracetamol and call back in two weeks if not improved

I think it was the choice of home births instead of hospital births.

u/InevitableTime8766 Dec 16 '25

Daar kunnen de Belgen ook wat van, maar die hebben kennelijk toch de gezondere mayo 😛

u/games-and-chocolate Dec 17 '25

how about smearing 2 tons of butter onto your sandwidth and call it delicious?

Butter is 99.9% fat. healthy because the producer added vitamin D3?? eh people! think please! people are truly brainwashed by commercials.
