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.

You put some of those chips in those sandwiches and youre cookin'
For me it was vending machine peanuts, because that's what they had in the swimming pool building
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.
I'm Dutch and I have similar memories. Fries, crisps, and/or ice cream used to be a quintessential part of the pool visit. Kinda makes me nostalgic thinking about it. After all that moving around the fries were an even better treat.
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.
Bosna?
No Dutch
Ah, Frikandel then? Sorry, I was thinking about Austria, where Bosna is a similar snack. But yeah, swamp German should have tipped me off. 😅
And probably a deep fried snack next to it.
Preferably
Is there a specific reason that type of food is only available after swimming?
It hits just as hard today, IMO.
I could go for a turkey sandwich and cool ranch Doritos rn, in fact.
I just ate steak, but now I want a sandwich with Doritos on top.
Curious about different after pool cuisines around the globe. Didn't really realise every country could have a different take
Fries & mayonaise slaps (Netherlands)
I don't think we have such a thing in Finland. I don't remember food being a thing after swimming hall or beach/lake
Is there a country that likes soup pool side? It's like your food is a hot tub!
Never ruin a thread like this again.
My POV while reading this post (I have not gone swimming today)
The chips go in the sandwich. Also I don't know how to swim.
I thought I was the only one! You put them in the middle then press it slightly so they go “crunch” a little. Yum!
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.
STILL. FUCKING. DOES.
My dad: "The plain peanut butter sandwiches will continue until morale improves."
You've committed a crime against gaming here today.
Not just gaming, but the women and children too.
My dad: “boiled hotdogs in store-brand white bread are what the real athletes eat.”
My wife and I went to town for groceries today. Neither of us ate breakfast or lunch, then we shopped. We only do two trips a month cuz it's far and expensive. We had grocery store sandwiches and potato chips for lunch at 3:00 this afternoon. Best meal ever.
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.
In English we say "hunger makes the best sauce" which is startlingly similar.
As a German I never heard that sentence before but it's hilarious lol
It’s a little less used these days. I have German family, they’re all older, so the saying may be out of style compared to their time. It’s usually “best sauce” but I’ve also heard “beste Koch” as well.
"Hunger is the best cook" / "Hunger ist der beste Koch" is a widely known saying!
Hunger is the hardest cock 😣🥺🤤
Huh, wonder it was a local variant? Either way, it’s a great saying.
I agree and I like your variant!
In Poland we have "Hunger is the best condiment", I guess it might be something similar
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!
