Marigold Devin Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 43 minutes ago, Persephone Emerald said: Properly fried and fresh French fries/ chips don't need extra seasoning besides a little salt, but are a wonderful carrier for all kinds of other flavors. My general fast food choice would be ranch dressing rather than ketchup, but I love me some chilli cheese fries. Brits also like curry fries, while Canadians like poultine . Btw, one of my favorite quotes from this forum was when someone said Second Life smells like baked potatoes. 🥔 Second Life has always smelled like freshly cut grass and plywood. I wonder if the person who said SL smells like baked potatoes was cooking baked potatoes the first time they ever created an avatar and logged in. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IJS. I am pretty sure that someone said "salt and vinegar". They are the standard things to put on fish and chips, although over here gravy is quite popular in fish and chip shops, as is salad cream. Utterly ridiculous lol. I like some tomato sauce as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowan Amore Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 1 hour ago, Love Zhaoying said: I can only speak for my own experience in the US, but "fast food" places that specialized in fried fish, would always have "malt vinegar" on the table. I intentionally put the vinegar on my fries at those places (not just on the fish)! Arthur Treacher's Fish and Chips. Best hush puppies, too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heinz originated it, and it's still the best. No copy that I've tasted gets near it. It looks like mayo but it's taste is sharper. It's why I often say that the taste of mayo is too bland. I assume that salad cream was invented to put on leaf salads - lettuce etc. It is good with all of the things that go on those salads, including cold potatoes. I also use it in tomato sandwiches, egg sandwiches, corned beef sandwiches, and salad sandwiches of course. But on fish and chips - no way! But some people do. See if you can buy a bottle.

I don't think this is a thing in California, though it might be in other parts of the US. What you've said keeps reminding me of what was called "American dressing" in an English restaurant when I visited there. It was just mayonnaise on iceberg lettuce, and I was mildly horrified that this substance received the name "American" as its descriptor. Then again, the US invented American cheese, which is almost as blandly horrible to my taste as mayonnaise is. I'm weird, but I prefer humus to mayonnaise when mixing up tuna salad and always plain Greek yogurt in place of sour cream. 3 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did use the regular viewer for my first several months, but once I started using Firestorm, I stuck with it. Also, it's all about A1 and/or cheese sauce for fries! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next we should discuss making deviled eggs, and if we really want a heated argument, how to make the best potato salad. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My auntie would mix up either pink salmon with a chopped up fresh tomato and salad cream to eke it out for as many sandwiches as possible. It was delicious. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ditto their tomato ketchup, which may be slightly sharper, but just slightly. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conifer Dada Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 I use the standard LL viewer, which I'm happy with these days. I have a version of Firestorm which I use for accessing OpenSim but for SL I only use the LL viewer. There have been times in the past when the LL viewer of the day was having performance issues and so I used a third party viewer. And . . . I prefer the white puff-clouds the LL viewer has for unrezzed avatars to the orange puff-clouds of Firestorm! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
