dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

It is common to eat hot dogs without buns in Norway. This is because people in Norway often eat hot dogs wrapped in a potato-based flatbread instead ("pølse i lompe") — or in select parts of Norway and Sweden, particularly in the city of Moss in Østfold County, hot dogs may be eaten wrapped in a waffle ("pølse i vaffel" or "pøffel").

This may seem like tangential information but it has huge implications for the "hot dog is a sandwich" debate.

So norwegian hotdogs are like pigs in a blanket, but bigger?

This is what pølse i lompe looks like, decide for yourself, though I personally wouldn't say so.

Lomper and tortillas share the commonality of both being forms of unleavened flatbread, though as said lomper are made from potatoes and tortillas are (traditionally) made from corn/maize.

Lompe one of the few things that Norway can do better than us in regards to food. Who has the time to eat korv med mos when you're out and about?

You eat a tunnbrödsrulle instead, the ultimate portable full meal.
