I'd have assumed french tacos to be a taco chopped up into small strips or alternatively, dipped in an egg mixture and fried.

I'd have assumed l'acadamie would have banned the word taco as dangerously Hispanic and come up with some completely unrelated French term like collation, and would patrol the streets of Paris throwing dictionnaires through the windows of every takeout still using the forbidden term.

The Spanish are just confused French. They are not dangerous like the perfidious English

All the tacaux talk made me think this was a food thread for a minute, but I got some maps to show. I found an article going over contemporary maps of the war, mostly from magazines. https://neverwasmag.com/2023/05/mapping-the-liberation-of-europe/ I really like this one from Time in 1943, which seems to pointedly propose for every possible route of invasion except for the one that actually would happen.  Also here's a Nazi propaganda map, contending that so what if there's an invasion of Italy, they're too slow. Nothing to worry about.

If you want fries with your doner just get a Kapsalon already, not this stupid "French taco" whatever it is

Jehde posted:What the hell shawarma are you buying that are being stuffed full of fries I also feel like it's kinda recent, kind of the MENA equivalent of "shrinkflation", they keep the same price but they replace meat and/or comparatively expensive veggies with French fries. Like I ate at a restaurant in Tunis a couple weeks ago and had this:  I did have to click through like 20 photos on their FB page though to get a picture of a shawarma with fries inside, but I have the impression that it's pretty common? Not rare enough to make me surprised whether they have or don't have fries, for the like 8 times a year I get one. Also since this is the maps thread, here's a map of O'Tacos locations:  Looks like their map isn't up to date. Looks like they show 253 France, 59 Belgium, 2 Germany, 1 Luxembourg, 1 Italy, 1 Spain, and 7 in overseas France (DROM)? But they're missing the Netherlands, and looks like they have at least 3 O'Tacos in Luxembourg, and looks like Italy has 3 locations now. I expect they'll manage to cross the Atlantic by storm in the next few years.

There are few takeaways that are not improved by putting chips in them. This I feel is something the UK understands. Get your chippy chips, your pizza chips, your kebab chips, your chinese chips. Everyone does chips. If it were legal to eat seagulls there would be places selling chip-fed seagull stuffed with chips.

Saladman posted:7 in overseas France (DROM)? Départements et régions d’outre-mer. But I agree with all the folks who just say add fries to something wrapped in pide and it’s better than a tacos. A tortilla is thin enough already that when pressed in a panini press it just doesn’t stand up to chunky ingredients like fries or the bigger hunks of shawarma meat.

Archduke Frantz Fanon posted:its a lebanese thing iirc Lots of arab places sell shawarma with fries here and i assumed it was because brazilians love fries and love freestyling on other people's cuisines. It being a lebanese thing makes a lot of sense because there was a big wave of lebanese immigrants in the 20th century.

You need a license to kill wild birds and they probably wouldn't grant you one "so that I can stuff a seagull with chips and eat it" And if you find a dead one you have to a: beat the other seagulls to it and b: hope it didn't die of something that would kill you if you et it. There's a larger, underwater version of the UK that the government doesn't want you to know about so they created county-sized seagulls to guard it.

I don't honestly know what seagull tastes like though I would imagine probably like rotten fish and gristle. But I would eat the bastards out of spite.

Famously the Saint Patrick's Battalion in the Mexican-American war was made up of Irish immigrants who realised that what the Americans were doing in Mexico was the same thing the British did in Ireland so they switched sides.

She asked what would the gulls be used for though and I had to get back to her on that. There was an attempt in World War 1 to teach them to swarm around submarines to give away their location and maybe poop on periscopes, but aside from that, nothing. The process of becoming vermin who primarily get their food by following around humans is a little like domestication, but not quite. Seagulls can also be fairly impressive as predators, and there are videos of them eating various smaller creatures, but I don't think they could kill enough for that to be their primary purpose like cats.

In less populated coastlines they are really cool predatory shorebirds, amazing to watch. It's a shame what becomes of them in big beach towns.
