foods worth trying from the euro/polish shops?

Someone gives you food to try and you bin it? What a dick.

I have no idea and putting "metka o smaku cebulowym" into Google hasn't really helped.

According to Google translate (so take it with a pinch of salt), it's 'tag-flavored onion'.

It's a close translation but not quite there. In Polish, "metka" means label or tag, etc, but it is also a name for a type of sausage, which is finely minced and designed for spreading onto bread. I think the name comes from the German "mettwurst" which is a similar type of spreadable sausage meat.

In this example, the meat has additional onion flavoring.

You know Jaffa Cakes?

Well, try the Polish variety with better quality chocolate and a sour cherry filling



It's too easy to go all "Cookie Monster" eating them.

I can only apologise to you, clearly you are very upset by my actions. I agree they weren't ideal, what can I do to make it up to you and change your low opinion of me for the better?

You need to send him a Durian fruit to say sorry

I always buy Morliny Sopocka ham from Costco in a big pack.
Will try the Kabanos next time.

They are very good (aside from the odd chunk of gristle) but having that many in the house at one time with my low willpower just doesn't work out for the best.

... filled either with meat or strawberries...

When ordering food if anyone offers you the choice of meat or strawberry filling, you should take that as a clue that you've ordered badly

Like a Yorkshire pudding? Beef or Strawberry (jam) for dessert

Well clearly (against the spirit of the thread and life in general) you aren't going to try it and report back so not a lot really. Would you like me to try find out what it was? I've got a Polish neighbour at work.

Apparently its Pate.
I'll forward you my address

You could have at least kept it for when you come and drunk and hungry, like donner meat, you wouldn't have given a st and chowed down on the lot.

I'd have cracked it open the minute I got it home!

I popped into my local for some kabanos earlier and he talked me into Tarczyński ones on the basis they were the ones the locals liked. I liked the fact I could sit and eat them like noodles but they weren't big on flavour (I like lots of garlic and juniper).

Shown are chicken, chilli and pork, I've seen the pork ones in supermarkets for about £1.80, this "party pack" of 150g was £2.49 so not great value compared with the loose ones I normally get.






I also apologised for wasting his raw mince spread.

Especially the healthy bit.

Having said that, Christmas is coming and that brings with it Poppy seed cake. Yummy:
