A buddy of mine is currently living in Poland with his girlfriend. Some of their food is legitimately terrifying. We make fun of him all the time and tell him he's at least going to lose weight living over there

He’ll rather gain strange kinks. Losing weight with Polish cuisine is impossible.

Honestly I think every European culture or associated cultures made weird aspics once commercial gelatin sheets became available.

What is that? Chicken noodle soup with gelatin crafted in to a jello dog/thing?

this is uhm... Christmas and Easter Polish "delicacy" and yeah, it's various stuff in jello because why not. this one is definitely Easter themed as it looks like it's supposed to be a lamb

This is some peak 1950s American stuff right here!

yeahhh my family has been trying to feed me salads suspended in jello every holiday season and it seems like im the only person who questions this tradition

[–] Vorticity@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Sorry, but savory jellos are just not something I have any interest in. Jello with hard-boiled eggs are a hard "no" for me.

preaching to the choir here! tell that to my family T–T

Lamb? It is uncle Bartek! How you dare?

Probably came out of a easter lamb form for normally cake.

My partners analysis as well. BTW we're Polish and terrified by this here this and the fact people now know about some of the darkest secrets of Polish cuisine.

You can’t lose weight anywhere in Eastern Europe. Poland isn’t an exception! And if you leave the place, you’ll miss it, and crave for more
