* "Alman (Turkish Alman "Deutscher") is a term used in German-speaking countries to describe German citizens without an obvious migration background. The term is also used to make fun of a person who lives according to German clichés"

How would being a non-native german have a negative effect on your skills at making pizza, a not famously german food?

If anything it'd probably help.

Probably a regional thing - while I have heard the term before, I never knew what it meant. In Sachsen-Anhalt, it's not a commonly used word.

Oh, not in Sachsen-Anhalt, no. It's a Thüringen expression.

The point is that it's a pizza of German stereotypes. The Turks would probably put Döner meat on it instead and sell it to Germans and become filthy rich.

It's the stuff that lives on the big spinny metal thing in the pizza shop. Sort of... vaguely peppered and with only small amounts of bone chippings in it.

I think it's mostly made of dogs and labias.

I'm not entirely sure it's meat, certainly mysterious though.

E: Also I googled "donnerbalken" and it's just pictures of soldiers with their arses hanging out? Is it soldier rear end meat?

Every döner kebab place I know also has pizza on the menu. Not just döner pizza, a whole selection of basic toppings. Conversely, pizza places have cottoned on to putting döner meat on pizza long ago even if they don't sell döner.

There's also a whole class of restaurants that all have roughly the same "foreign food" menu of dishes from wildly different cuisines. Döner, pizza, pasta, fried noodles and curries, all on one 200 item foldout menu that you find in your mailbox.

A "Donnerbalken" is the log you hang your rear end off of to take a (thunderous) dump.

I was annoyingly pedantically implying that it's very much a Germany thing, not a "German-speaking countries" thing, as few people in Austria would want to be called a German by any word.

I always sort of wondered that about the Greek diners in the Northeast, where they have these enormous menus with like 100 laminated pages and every single item has a numeric code like BF1003-A because there's just so god drat many things. What is it like being a chef in a place like that, and some customer is like "Mmm okay I think I'll haaaaaaave ... T581, the Thai Curry Wrap" or whatever, and they have to switch from grilling burgers and flipping pancakes to stew up some curry. I would have thought having a small, finite menu was basically a matter of survival for a restaurant, but these places have made an art form out of "we make literally anything, it might not be the best anything you've ever had but by God we will not ever say no"

I hate it when you can't tell what the toppings are. They should make it more clear.

The longer the menu is, the more likely it is that everything is frozen and just heated up on demand. If you're VERY lucky it was made on site before being frozen, but it's normally just all from one of those big industrial factory that also makes ready meals for supermarkets.

The yellow mustard is only good with ketchup, relish, lots of onions and hot sauce. On its own it sort of sucks.

I remember in my teens I ate a lot of yellow mustard sandwiches because bread and mustard were all I had in the house to eat. My family wasn't big on breakfast unless it was the weekend and lol at getting a lunch, it was a fend for yourself thing. Dinner was a family meal but the rest of the time, lol good luck.

Yellow mustard is a tasty mustard flavored vinegar
that's also somewhat gelled so that makes it nice for cold cut sandwiches where an oil and vinegar dressing will just run away.

I am a hot dog hipster and take mine with one line of stone ground mustard on one side and one line of Sriracha on the other.

When I was a kid I ate so much yellow mustard — on its own, just squeezing a big pool of it on my plate and eating it with my fork — that my dad had to repeatedly admonish me that "Mustard is a cONdiment, you put it ON things"

That's how most Mexican places do it

3 different sizes of tortillas triples your menu size with tacos, enchiladas, and burritos

True, but that's not the same as sitting down at a questionably decorated table, packing away 3 frozen strawberry margaritas, and devouring bottomless chips and salsa while you wait for a chicken chimichanga all while mariachi music plays over the speaker system
