Life / Fast Food missing in Poland [47]
I always found it funny how people used their preference as some gospel. Someone likes Pizza Hut? Good for them. Someone else prefers some small local pizzeria? Great too.

Food / How is this herring product typically served? [74]
I'm actually writing to my sis to ask for the recipie I wanted to do it for ages now but never got around to asking (she was the one who was always making it at home). It is a bit of a pain though-to make sure no bones are left :/

Different recipes probably. People always look to improve a bit don't they?
In my family we also add onion and eggs...
(I took a glance at a couple of recipes and they use mayo or yoghurt instead of butter - a new 'healthy' fad I guess)

Life / All Things Christmassy in Poland [326]
Don't know about the States but I didn't notice anyone in Poland having problem with that.
It is a bit different than competing against other kids though.

That is my favourite part! It just looks so cheerful

Is that potatoes salad?
For me it was about cooked sausages and eggs with horse radish...yummy
I don't celebrate Easter anymore but I might be tempted to make that for myself

Personally I don't see a point in salted butter. When I bought it by mistake it annoyed me quite few times.
Guilty as charged. It just goes so well together....

Food / What do non-Poles think about eating the following Polish foods? [1428]
I never use tomato in take away sandwiches. It let's the juices out and losses texture.
I don't mind eating onion in the morning but right after that brush my teeth.
Actually one day when I was short on potatoes and didn't fancy going to the shop I decided to copy you and try some new combo. I must say I prefer it the standard way, with potatoes.
However, when I make myself sandwiches for school brunch/lunch, I use tomato without onion.

So I prefer kasha or various kinds of rice.

That is one. Plus it's funny to deny them their Russianism ( :) ) because we don't agree with their opinions.
Stalin or tsars like Ivan the Terrible - no difference.

I have to correct myself. The shooting in the legs was was a proposal but didn't come to life or anywhere close it seems.
They do however have to give a warning shot unless the situation is too dynamic

That is your opinion. As it is in Poland excessive force is a very real term and you can be charged for that either as a cop or civilian.

Every neighborhood has it's dzielnicowy and his tasks is to know things, go around to have friendly chats with people etc
