One of my cousins is in the Spanish army as a tank commander or something.

I have an obvious disposition against military dudes.

Had macaroni with scrambled egg for lunch. It was good, but grandma overdosed oil on it and that killed the taste. And then she argued with me that you cannot do scrambled eggs without so much oil etc.

I dislike avocado, because it turned out that I am also allergic on it

 

[Funky Papa]

You should never argue with grandmas about cooking.

Never.

 

[marrec]

Avocado is godlike simply for the fact that you can make guacamole with it.

Guacamole = best sauce.

 

[Chuckie]

Guacamole is indeed very good! I love making quesadilla's with guacamole on it.

You. You are cool. I like you.

 

[marrec]

What's the difference between a dip and a sauce anyway?

Wait why am I asking you you don't even think Guac is good wtf

Guacliness is close to godliness.

Well, she worked in large hotel kitchen and was always very 'generous' about oil.

this avowant and avodon't civil war is going to be worse than ketchup on hotdogs or pineapple on pizza.

how the heck do you eat hotdogs unless you put ketchup on them? literally inedible

I don't know about English, but in Dutch a dip is called a 'dipsaus' which just means it is a saus where you dip stuff in.

So regular 'saus' you poor over your dish, while with 'dipsaus' you dip the dish in the stuff. I think it is the same with English, considering dip comes from dipping sauce

Still both sauces though. So the 'it's a dip, not a sauce doesn't seem to make sense at all.

I just remembered that today is Japanese dark souls 3 day

we won't be seeing much of Jobbs around here I suspect

mustard goes on hot dogs. not ketchup

the only thing ketchup belongs on is fries.

I just thought everyone knew Guac was amazing, this is like finding a whole new world of people on the edges of known space where they wear shoes on their hands.

 

[Halcyon]

I don't tend to eat avacado or guac even though I think they taste good.

I'm putting together a trampoline for my nephews. I'd almost rather be at work.

 

[Misha]

It literally means avocado sauce.

translations are imprecise. Salsa for example translates directly to sauce but is only sometimes a sauce and usually a dip

mustard goes on hot dogs. not ketchup

mustard belongs on sausage, not tube steak

how do you eat burgers?

See my other post. A dip is a dipping sauce. It is a sauce. Just applied on the dish in a different way.

maybe initially that was the meaning but thats not how the language works anymore. next you're going to try to tell me that spreads are also sauces smh

Jobbs we need to distinguish dips, sauces, and spreads before they all become one thing and we're putting salsa on our bread and dipping chips into Mayonnaise.

I don't tend to eat avacado or guac even though I think they taste good.

I'm putting together a trampoline for my nephews. I'd almost rather be at work.

I put together a trampoline once and it was awful, you're a good uncle.

 

[Ceallach]

I put Guam on sandwiches, therefore it is a sauce.

 

[A Fish Aficionado]

I like ketchup on hotdogs, pineapple on pizza, guacamole/avocado, and mayo.

 

[Jobbs]

I'm still laying here in couch and I'm thinking about the trampoline episode of the Simpsons and giggling like an idiot

This is hakcyxons plan to take out his nephews

And guacamole is a good dip. Guacamelee is a horrible shit game

The whole island? Doesn't their flag make it taste awful?

People are coming up with the worst opinions today.

 

[FloatOn]

No ketchup on those either. I like pretty much every other condiment on burgers though.

But at this point I should clarify that mayo is also trash imo

I put Guam on sandwiches, therefore it is a sauce.

I put hummus on sandwiches. I would feel weird calling hummus a sauce.

It's some of the worst trash ever devised . the Wes Anderson movie of games

I also love Wes Anderson.

when you put Guac on a sandwhich it becomes a spread

mayo is definitely the worst. no arguing that

 

[marrec]

It's some of the worst trash ever devised . the Wes Anderson movie of games

Playing the game was fun enough, the combat got to a point where it was strategically interesting and the combat unlockables basing itself on exploration, while not novel, was implemented really well. It turned the machismo of the culture it was appropriating on it's head while also paying homage to it, which was nice.

The shoehorned popculture references were trash, the story was trash, the map was trash.

 

[Funky Papa]

Garlic mayo is the shit. So are wasabi mayo, Kewpie mayo and squid ink mayo.

Mayo is generally great, although it should be said that this assertion is only true as long as we are talking about homemade mayo. Bottled one is just Satan's foulest secretion.

it all suffers from shit design

 

[Misha]

I remember watching a tv episode on sauce vs dip vs spread etc. was it seinfeld? cause that seems like the most likely. But I really can't remember so it could be wizards of waverly place for all I know

 

[marrec]

it all suffers from shit design

A lot of the environments were boring compared to contemporary games in it's genre. It was obvious that they designed it with gating exploration first, and making it look unique and interesting second.

 

[Chuckie]

Dip is still short for dipping sauce. It is a specific kind of sauce, but still a sauce.

What you are implying is that people made a sauce for dipping, called it a dipping sauce. Then shorten the word to dip and it suddenly isn't sauce anymore. All the while it is still a sauce in Holland where we don't use the shortened version.

Hollands less evolved though everyone know that.

I'm cool with differentiating dip from sauce, but guac is so good it encompasses all forms of gooey spreadable non-newtonian fluids.

your misunderstanding is that the word sauce in america and the word sauce in holland are the same word. they carry different implications. like if you talk about biscuit in britain and america



I'm mostly just arguing for the sake of it. most dips and some spreads are forms of sauces but not all. Guac definitely fits all three but you try go for the most precise word for the situation anyway.

examples of stuff that are dips but not sauces:

 

[DrM]

Damn, now I am hungry after all this sauce/dip debate

 

[FloatOn]

I would classify guacamole as a spread when used on a sandwich. Dip when used for chips.

I tend to think that sauces are more liquid

 

[marrec]

Ain't nobody going to spread bean dip on a sandwich or put mustard on a salad or dip chips in a vinaigrette.

With guac though, you can do all those things. From chip to sandwich to lettuce (fuck that doesn't rhyme) you can use guac with EVERYTHING.

 

[Funky Papa]

Another example of a dip that is not a sauce:

Brandade. Delicious brandade.

I've had re-fried beans on burgers and honey mustard dressing. also here's a vinaigrette with chips

but I get what you mean

tbh "definitely" was probably too much of a concession from me. it and salsa run pretty close to the line. like hummus and stuff like that I definitely wouldn't call sauces but theres some thick tomato sauces that can have similar consistency to some guacs and salsas

 

[Funky Papa]

This is your chance to dress like a fannibal.

That's it, all conventions are fluid, dogs sleeping with cats, Dark Souls with Free 2 Play mechanics, england has good food... nothing is real anymore.

 

[Misha]

I just remembered, I have a friend who used to call italian dressing "italian sauce" and dipped his pizza in it

dressing=sauce=dip

I love that our two biggest "thing you like is shit" hipsters disagree.

Damn straight. My Nana used to cook the best goddamn lasagne I have ever tasted. And her cowboy pie had to be tasted to be believed.

God rest your soul, Nana.
