Study / School meals in Poland [145]

@johnny reb
@jon357
I totally get where both of you are coming from.
Jim is right, parents need to be more responsible.
Jon is right, if parents are not responsible then what is the point in prosecuting everyone?
Because then everyone, including the kids, suffer.
The answer lies in catching this stuff early, education and the threat of penalties on parents if they don't respect their responsibilities.
I agree with Jim, if adults are not capable or interested in raising their kids properly, then they should not have them.

Exactly.


Also true.


Because it often is.... as Maf said, Chicken breast may be healthy, but it is boring, tasteless and dull, unless
you add plenty of herbs and spices, but even then, other cuts with those same herbs and spices taste better.


Couldn't agree more.


Sorry, but that is not appealing to me at all....


Agreed 100% but that may be difficult in Poland.


This is true and something we do all tbe time.


The best comment in this thread Maf!

Yes, completely moronic because tbe kids will not eat it.


Atch said Veggie.... so no fish allowed...
In the UK you may be able to get away with a veggie day by making it a spicey indian dish, but that won't work in Poland..

And anyway, spicey deep fried Indian food may be very nice but it is less healthy than a "Full English".

And this is the crux of the problem.
And as Kaprys and others have said, the "western" idea of "snacking" is a huge problem too.
It is better for the kids to have filling and fullfilling meals.
Atch's moronic idea of a "Vegetarian Day", would result in kids not eating that mush.... so they would either starve or eat junk....

I can't remember if "Smash" was even around back then, but the spuds were grey, watery and inedible...

We used to get those same potatoes in English school dinners and they were all watery and inedible....

@delphiandomine

That menu looks pretty good to me.
Certainly better than the stuff we were fed when I was at school!

History / Where did Poles spend summer vacations in the PRL era? [63]


Most Poles have in the past and still do, take most of their holidays in Poland.
Either by the sea, by lakes, by rivers, by forests or in the mountains.
In recent years some, mainly young Poles have gone abroad.

@Zlatko

Mate, you are talking crap.....or are you just trolling?


It certainly did and deserves to be Poland's capital.

Interesting post.
As a British born person with Polish parents I do see where you are coming from.
But I do think that you denigrate Poles somewhat.
I know many intelligent Poles with a sense of humour that are capable of charming the ar$e off many English women....

Life / Popular and Practical Cars in Poland [51]

Yes and a lot of Fiat's too of course.

I think they are made in Slovakia.

They are failing miserably.....Japanese and far eastern nation cars are much more reliable.

Love it mate.....go give it to them!!!

Not as horrible as you think.
There is a lot of "banter" on here.....if you don't understand that word then maybe "joking" or "leg pulling".... most of us are not being nasty on here, Just mucking about.

@Zlatko

There are Japanese cars in Poland but mainly Toyotas.
In general Poles buy European cars though, mainly German but there are a lot of Skoda's too.

USA, Canada / Church recommendation in or near Traverse City, Michigan? [20]


Give it up Jim..... you have been sussed by people that are cleverer than you...... ;-)

USA, Canada / Church recommendation in or near Traverse City, Michigan? [20]


Nah, just one.....

UK, Ireland / Traditional Polish meat hut in the UK? [5]

As I have said on a different thread, the meat is no problem in the UK.
Just get a suitable table....if you can get a market stall one, all the better.

USA, Canada / Church recommendation in or near Traverse City, Michigan? [20]

As far as I cn see, there are no evangelical churches in Traverse City, so your friend is out of luck..... go Catholic or Atheist.... :-)

No, it is because British people smell bad......

History / Karol Wojtyla, the man who become a pope (video) [58]

He was a great man.

The only pope that I truly admired.

Genealogy / What are common Polish character traits? [425]


Nah, the problem is with old,fat, American men of German descent that like to pretend that they are Polish....

Genealogy / Do I look Polish? (my picture) [378]


That is not completely true.
Whilst there may not be a typical Polish look.
You cannot honestly tell me that in a foreign city you have not been able to identify Poles.....

Genealogy / Do I look Polish? (my picture) [378]

Hey, it was just a guess.
You could have been either....or even Polish.... safe to say you look European :-)

Genealogy / Do I look Polish? (my picture) [378]


Like I said, you would pass as a Pole but your look is not typical.
Now that you tell us you are Belgian, are you more French or more Flemish?
I am guessing French.....

Language / The "end piece" of a loaf of bread in Polish [80]

My family called it the "Dupka" and even my kids, who don't really speak Polish, still call it that.
