To all Americans!

[Mandrill]

Wait a minute, wait a minute....is this true??
Could these two things really, honestly be true:

-That Americans don't have paprica chips??

-That Americans don't eat mayonaise with their french fries??

I was stunned and appolled when hearing this....please, answer...

[Henneth annun]

I am an american and I eat mayo with my french fries, I don't know what this chips are?

[Mandrill]

Well, you know, you have these normal potatoe chips, right? The kinda yellow ones? So then there are also these redcoloured chips, called 'paprica chips', though they really don't taste like paprica that much.
Hasn't anybody heard of that? Amazing, really...(Americans, that is.)

[The Peoples of Yavanna]

lol, Mandrill, I eat mayo with my french fries, but not many Americans do. Ketchup is the popular condiment for fries.

I've had lots of different flavored potato chips, but never paprica ones. Are the chips themselves red, or does the paprica color them so on the outside? I'm intrigued, I may have to try to track some down....

[Parthini]

Geez guys! It's FREEDOM fries here

GPP

[Odracir]

Paprica fries? Can't say I've heard of them. And mayo on french fries is quite possibly the nastiest thing I've ever heard.

[aleeproject]

Mmmmm Fries!!
heheheh

In Canada, a lot of us eat Mayo on our fries. (yes its true) and mmm Paprica!!

[Henneth annun]

I dont get why people dont like mayo!!

[Down under there]

If you go to Wendy's, the BEST thing to do with your fries is dip them in your Frostee. Really. Ketchup and Mayo have got nothing on Frostee.

[Re-Yupanqui]

o god, fries in frostee? gross. MAYO on FRIES? actually thats really good. just on some kinds though. Mostly ketchup is better. Paprika chips, whats that? anyways, am i the only person who likes honeymustard on my fries? just wondering...

Most people use ketchup, Heinz 57 to be precise, a good Pittburgh company that is still in existence unlike the steel mills.

ALP, how popular is vinegar on fries in Canada? I rememeber going to this thing call World Affairs Seminar (held by the Rotary Club) and a lot of the Canadians were talking about vinegar on fries.

As to paprica chips, I have never heard of them. However, we have barbaque chips, many brands of which that I think have some paprica.

Lastly, they will always be French fries to me. They may have nothing to do with the French, but I remember Lafayette and the Louisana Purchase.

[aleeproject]

Oh Vinegar is a BIG thing for Canadians and fries!
However, many of us only like White Vinegar on our fries---Malt?! No-Thank you.

I remember when I went on vacation to Orlando, Florida one year, and we couldn't find WHITE VINEGAR, and when we did, they were shocked that we wanted it on our fries! lol

[Parthini]

Ahh... Lafayette! One of the few cool French people in world history!

[Naoi]

Vinegar on fries! it's so good!! white vinegar, red vinegar...i want fries!!

You know what else is good on fries? Italian Salad Dressing! It's just like vinegar, just...i dunno...more taste? It's so good though!

[ALEN]

*looks at everybody in disgust*
just plain old french fries with a sprinkle of salt(or chicken salt) for me.
thank you very much lol

[Mandrill]

LOL EVERYONE!!
OK, so let me get this straight:

-some Americans DO eat mayo with their fries, but it's not very common; it can really frighten some.

-You've all NEVER HEARD of paprica flavoured chips

Ow yes, Yavanna:
The chips are actually the same as the salt flavoured ones, but instead of salt they've put paprica powder on it, so the chips really do have a red 'glow'.

[Mandrill]

B.T.W., if you seriously wanna get some chips, either participate in the Paprica Contest or visit this guy who lives in Bethlehem, PA on University dr. He got some..

[Henneth annun]

I am going to try peprica chips. ;D

[Alfonia]

Seriously? No paprica chips? I thought everybody had that...
Well actually none of the swedish brands make those, those we have are imported from Holland or Belgium, but they seem to sell quite well.

[Mandrill]

I know, amazing, isn't it? The Americans have missed a big commercial breakthrough. If now somebody would begin a stall with imported paprica flavoured chips along a road somewhere, it would be a big hit. Anyone?

[Re-Yupanqui]

'ello, Mandrill! I did my best to win a yummy bag of paprika chips! Ha! I will get the chips.... chips.... paprica... yummm


What do they taste like? chips....


Btw, Viniger on fries is good, i do admit. You know what is beyond goodness? German Kinder chocolate.... yummmm

Auf Weidersein


Yupanqui

[Mandrill]

I don't think I'm mentally there yet to try vinigar on fries, but the chocolate I don't mind .

[Alfonia]

Vinegar is excellent for almost everything that is crunchy!

[aleeproject]

Paprica chips?

I wish we had those where I live in Canada.

We have (most popular):
Salt and Vinegar Chips
Dill Pickle Chips
Ketchup Chips
All Dressed Chips
etc

[Re-Yupanqui]

I'm actually not so big on most chips, but i like fritos. You know what are good? Big deli dill pickles. A Lee Project's post made me think of pickles. MAndrill, you didn';t answer my question about how to pronounce it! COme on, READ the posts, Mandrill!

:)yupanqui

[Mandrill]

Yes, yes, allright already!!
No, but seriously, what can be more wrong and just plain nasty in this world than salty liquorice? I mean, c'mon! salty...

[ChiefShaka]

Blech. Are you people here crazy? Mayo with french fries!? Too many weird things for me......urgh.......

[Alfonia]

Salty liquorice is way better than sweet liqourice! But not that disgusting type you can buy in white paper tubes in airports... yuck!
And what's so wrong with mayo on fries? OK, if you get too much it's just disgusting, but it is pretty OK.

[Liggerstein]

Just the normal salt n vineger for me

[Re-Yupanqui]

Do any of you people like deviled eggs? I just made some for easter and they have mayo in them. Personally, i think they're just to eggy, but thats just me.
