Food / Your all time favourite Polish Dishes! [108]

Ahh ha sausage rolls i see, share em out come on dont be shy, paszteciki z miesem:

Paszteciki are not really sausage rolls, inside is not a sausage, it's some kind of meaty filler, it tastes differently and it is made differently as well. Go and have some, you will know :P

I forgot to add - why Poles should call dishes with English names? O_o even if they were English...

Life / If I could introduce something from my country into Poland, I would.... [175]

All of Poland is closed on that day. Even the dogs will be afraid to bark for fear of excommunication.
If Poland is to compete successfully with the West, it MUST rid itself of Catholic control.

What's wrong in people having at least few days off and not working 7 days a week? a person doesnt need to be catholic to want to spend some time with family.

Genealogy / THE MEANING AND RESEARCH OF MY POLISH LAST NAME, SURNAME? [4500]

1. Are Prussian's part Russian, Polish and German?

Here is some infos about Prussia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prussia

2. Is "unka" or "Yonka" a Russian or Polish or German name

I have never heard of the name Unka (I am Polish). I did some search online and i am pretty sure it's not polish name. On the website of Rada Jezyka Polskiego they wrote that the name is not present in any sources containing the list of names (old or the newer ones).

Yonka - maybe it should be Janka? If Janka then it's Polish.

3. "Prain" both from Prussia?

It doesnt sound Polish at all. Most likely German.

Food / Polish Milk Soup [72]

The noodle was like a pasta knot as I can remember it looked like. Really good.

It's milk soup, in my family called kluski lane na mleku (can be done not with milk, with chicken broth etc), in others - zacierka.

I think many people here confuse milk soup with zurek/bialy barszcz. Just coz something is white it doesnt mean it's milk soup :P in polish cousine we add sort of cream (smietana) to whiten the soup, so tomato soup is not so red coz of the smietana etc. Bialy barszcz is also whitish coz of cream and not coz it has milk in it.

Life / How would you describe the Polish sense of humour? [66]

a woman on heels and stockings lifting her skirt in front of foreigners asking them:Have you seen Warsaw by night?

I dont get the joke :S I think i m not a real Pole :(

I like jokes about square rabbits and fly-bane going to Jerosolima.

USA, Canada / The proper behavior an American should show when visiting Poland [115]

I would suggest to not comment in the bad way all the church-stuff and our history. Mostly it's about history, people get very offended and aggressive when some foreigners say things which are not as Poles were taught.

And from my personal experience - dont criticise food :P you dont have to like it but you are a guest so keep it for urself.

The other things are as already was said - the same rules are everywhere else in Europe so i guess in USA as well. You can wear shorts and flip flops even but not to the more posh restaurants so the same as in other countries.

Love / Polish Women Versus Your Local Women ? [289]

POSCO, you clearly did not respect her. Probably she needed more than just sex for itself and you were not able to give it to her.

And rest of you who say that polish or american or whatever nationality are bad in bed/bad gf etc after sleeping with one girl - no comment.
