In German, they say, "The customer is king" This does not mean that the clerk is a servant of the customer. The customer is a customer and must show the employee the same respect that the customer expects from the employee.
I have always said to my employees: "The customer is king as long as he behaves like an emperor. I think decency and respect are important. "Just" because I work here does not mean I am your slave.
It's similar to "the customer is always right" (even though the full saying goes "in matters of taste the customer is always right), in that you're doing a service to the customer. That doesn't mean you have to be a servant, just that there is a certain level of proffesionallism and respect.
There is an actual desert in Germany. The Lieberoser Wüste. It is a patch where in 1942 was a wildfire and adterwords was used as a trainingground for the sowjet army. It never got reforested and is now protected
that is probably not a real desert (deserts are defined by the (extremely minimal) annual percepitation, so Antarctica with the "dry" ice in the highlands has enormous deserts, while not every sandy stretch of ground qualifies on its own. Beaches for example usually aren't deserts due to the ocean climate ;))
My brother went on holiday to Italy by car. There was hail there. All the car windows are broken and the car is dented. Thanks to the insurance, he gets a rental car and can continue his vacation.
Wow. Waldmeister. You have finally hit a bit of German culture I didn't know about!! I often visit Germany in spring and love Spargel (asparagus), Holunderbluten (elderflower) and Rhabarber (rhubarb) but have never come across Waldmeister. Can't wait until next year.
Da (natürlicher) Waldmeister Leberschäden hervorrufen kann, wird Hauptsächlich künstliches Aroma verwendet . Ich kenne das noch aus den 1960er Jahren, das um den Mai herum echter Waldmeister für Maibowle verwendet wurde. Danach fing Waldmeister an zu blühen, was den Giftgehalt erhöht hat. Die Tradition mit dem Mai ist geblieben, ist aber dank künstlicher Aromen nicht mehr wichtig.
@@olehamburg3404 SO, here is a translation for them non english viewers: Since (natural) Waldmeister / Woodruff can cause liver damage (*when overdosing on the flowering plant, not so much the fresh pre-blooming plant), today it is mostly artificial flavouring being used. I know it from back in the 60ies, when around Mai it was natural Woodruff directly being put into Maibowle. After this time of the year, the woodruff started blooming, wich raised the amount of poisonous constituents (* mainly a derivate of o-Coumaric acid / 2-Hydroxycinnamic acid) within the plant. So, the tradition remained for the time around mai to get the Waldmeister, but thanks to the artificial flavouring, it's not really neccessary these days any more.
Waldmeister tastes like Waldmeister, like nothing else does. There, that's the best explanation to "describe" it. Same goes for cinnamom, cloves, anything with anis, capsaicin, ginger...bay leafs
Deep-frying a Schnitzel is a sacrilege. If someone wants to say that a restaurant is not good, he says: "They deepfry their Schnitzels." The service desert: I as a german from the north would find it very uncomfortable if someone bends over backwords in a shop to help me. I am not a king and I am not always right. I am a human being and so is the employee.
What many people don't know about Germany: Although you see a lot more dogs, there are actually more cats than dogs in Germany. There are more households that own a cat than those that own a dog. The cat is the most popular pet in Germany, although Germany is famous for its dog breeds.
My favourite pork dish is Schweinemedaillons mit Pilzrahmsoße und Spätzle. (pork loin with mushroom cream sauce and spaetzle). I would describe the tast of Waldmeister as a fruity herbal taste with lemon and green apple. One of my favouite ways to enjoy Waldmeister is Waldmeister-Götterspeise (jell-o) with vanilla sauce.
Favourite Waldmeister-food/drink: Jello (especially delicious in summer if during preparation you substitute some of the water with buttermilk or joghurt) and "Grüne Weiße" (=Berliner Weiße, a special kind of beer, with Waldmeister-syrup).
The hatchback type of car is probably the most common all over Europe. I don't think that it's specific for Germany because the limitations are the same almost everywhere. Old towns with narrow streets and parking space being hardly available the nearer you are to the town centre.
in general small cars, but minivans and station wagons (or the much more elaborate british term "estate car") are also popular when something bigger is needed.
Exactly. Only the Republic of Ireland strangely liked saloons / sedans but that may have changed now there are less of them (apart from executive vehicles of course)
Regarding hatchbacks pulling trailers: Manual transmissions have way greater torque than automatic ones, which need additional cooling hardware for the fluid coupling to support that kind of torque as those generate tons of heat when locked. That hardware fits into a SUV,-sized vehicle but not in a hatchback. So even if you wanted to your ordinary US sedan or hatchback probably couldn't pull the type of stuff you see getting pulled on the Autobahn.
One of the main reasons why there are no pickups in Germany, apart from the high fuel consumption, is the impossibility of finding a parking space in city centers. They are too wide and too long for parking garages. It's already difficult with an SUV...
if you have a choice, take that one in the glasbottle, in my opinion, thats the best... another waldmeistergetränk is berliner weiße mit schuss, ein helles bier mit einem schuss waldmeistersirup.... liebling mit waldmeister? eiscreme! 🙂
About the first point (insurances): while our concept of insurances for everything that could go wrong is weird for Americans, Germany think it's strange to beg strangers for money on GoFundMe to help in case of accidents, illnesses, etc. My personal insurances: Krankenversicherung, KFZ Versicherung, Haftpflichtversicherung and my dogs have Haftpflichtversicherung and my dogs and cats have all health insurance. The American way of "the customer is always right" is probably the reason you have so many Karens and working with customers is considered a pretty stressful job. The are some German employees who are way too unfriendly/impolite, though.
WALDMEISTER is my favourite mix with "Berliner Weiße", a special beer with about 3 % alc., which is brewed in Berlin. You normally don´t drink it pure - always mix it with treacle, f. e. cherry, strawberry or WALDMEISTER. Best drink in the summer! Try it out on your next trip to Berlin. 🙂
You don't drink it pure, because it's a bit sour. My favorite Schuss is also with Waldmeister. There was a Limited Edition Schuss syrup Mix from Berliner Kindl some years ago with I think 6 different flavours...
The next step from a hatchback is a "Hochdachkombi". Basically a station wagon with a higher roof. I couldn't find a useful english translation. Same area needed in the street but much more space inside.
My dad was in the Air Force and I grew up in Germany for a good number of years. (Rhineland Pfalz --> Hunsrück --> Büchenbeuren). My favorite ice cream was Waldmeister (Waldmeistereis). So delicious! As for pork, nothing beats a good Eisbein mit Sauerkraut or Jägerschnitzel.
Yeah, hatchbacks are the go-to car in Germany. Small parking slots, narrow streets, often very winding, make SUVs and pickup trucks one of the most impractical vehicles for private use here. Especially if you want to take it into some Alpine village with hairpin turns that make a hairpin look spacious. Random question: well, depends on the cut of pork, doesn't it? But for pork loin, a thick marinade of a honey-mustard-teriyaki with herbes a la provence in a 'tray' of aluminum, put under the broiler for 25 minutes, flipped halfway through. Yummy.
Try a Special swabian recipe; Slowly cooked pork-cheeks in a dark-beer gravy with "Schlupfnudeln ".Sometimes there are some Red fruits in the gravy or some raisins . Or perhaps you want to try a "Sauerbraten",normaly eaten with dumplings .
In my childhood you can only buy two syrups in the taste Himbeere/rasperry and Waldmeister/woodruff. Other syrups with, for example orange flavour, we could geht in Swizerland.
Soweit ich es aus einem oder mehreren UA-cam-Videos verstanden habe, sind in den USA die SUVs die Lieblinge der Autoindustrie, weil sie nach (ich denke) aus den 1960er Jahren stammenden Regeln weniger streng in Bezug auf Sicherheitsanforderungen und Abgasanforderungen eingestuft werden als normale PKW. Es gibt da ein sehr gutes YT-Video "These Stupid Trucks are Literally Killing Us" von dem Kanal "Not Just Bikes"
Hatte die Tage ein anderes Video zum Thema gesehen, aktuell ist es tatsächlich hauptsächlich wegen des Verbrauchs. Große Pickups können fast verbrauchen was sie wollen, aber je kleiner, desto sparsamer müssen sie sein (bis zur technischen Unmöglichkeit), sonst zahlt der Hersteller eine Strafabgabe pro Fahrzeug. Es liegt also weniger am Kunden, sondern am Hersteller, der bewirbt die großen natürlich entsprechend und bietet die kleinen nicht mal mehr an. Und trifft beim Kunden dann natürlich den Nerv - bigger is better! Die Regelung dient m.E. zur Verbrauchssteigerung, ungeachtet dessen, was eine solches Gesetz eigentlich bewirken sollte.
Waldmeister: it resembles tarragon, but it is sweeter. Its taste is not very strong but it mixes well with other flavours, ideal for fruity cocktails or longdrinks. You might even say that herb is a little like fresh basil, but much softer.
Honestly I love myself any drink with Waldmeister flavor. It's one of my favorite things, we always have a sirup or something in that flavor in the house. And I do enjoy it a lot in my ice cream every once in a while, but not as frequently.
Eis Bein and pork ribs are my favourites. Neck cutlets are also beautiful. Salted (and smoked) pork legs are a perfect base for a pea soup. The broth, if you add a lot of different root vegetables, leek, onions and one clove of garlic+ 2 black pepper corns and some herbes of your own choice can make a fantastic consommé.
1:29 Says „Bratwurst“ and shows Weißwürste. My guy is doing a getting kicked out of Germany speedrun Well I am joining you in this quest and say that Pork is alright but not the best sort of meat. I like Pork Medaillons tho
I'm from the New York metro areas & I bought two hatch-backs brand-new ( and my father had multiple hatch-backs (which is the reason the I bought 2). My dad loved them as he felt that they would have more utility when moving things. Before I bought my 1st 2 brand new cars, I drove one of his (a Toyota Corolla), later he got me to buy my brother's used Honda Civic hatch-back. As I said I was influenced by him to buy to brand-new Subaru Imprezas, obviously not at the same time but one after the other. For my 3rd Subaru Impreza, I did not get a hatch-back because that model was a $1,000 more expensive plus it was less fuel efficient so cost more per mile in gasoline. So I did not get another one but what I do miss with hatch-backs is the rear windshield wiper. I mentioned that to a colleague & he said that non-hatch backs don't need them but I don't agree!
NYC is probably one of the best examples for european style transport working in the US. Dense population that isn't exclusively in skyscrapers or single family suburbs, with smaller cars and a denser public transport network. When people are packed like that rail and bus networks are practical (because every stop can service a lot of people) and small cars have a much easier time with parking.
My father grew up in New York City and his family had no car. My mother taught my father how to drive after they got married and moved to the suburbs. He took the commuter train and the subway to work everyday for almost 20 years and my mom would drive him to & from the train station in our village everyday - we had one car growing up so it wasn’t left parked at the train station all day.
It's funny you mention hatchbacks, I've only had one friend that owned a one. His Golf was nice. I'm not sure if I'd buy one but I'm not saying I wouldn't. And as for pork, on the rare occasions I eat it it will be in the form of a breaded pork chop. But prefer beef since you don't need to overcook it.
Legal expenses insurance is in fact so german, that german insurance companies have a 36% marketshare in the WORLD market in that sector, leading that sector by a wide margin (french insurers are second place with 12%) But this type of insurance is pretty common in europe in general, in fact european companes as a whole have 80% of worldwide marketshare.
For me the only real use of Waldmeister is jello (Wackelpudding). In stores most dogs aren't allowed. An general service dogs don't have such a standard as in the US. Only seeing-eye dogs or guide gogs.
Ich liebe waldmeistereis und das gibt es immer sobald die eisläden öffnen. Also die ganze eissaison über. Ansonsten mag ich auch ab und zu mal Waldmeisterbrause oder wackelpudding...
The best way to cook pork - depends on the piece of meat. I am northern German but my absolute favorite pork dish is Franconian Schäufela. Unfortunately not available from us. This is a piece of slowcooked pork shoulder with a crunchy crust. Served with dumplings, red cabbage and delicious sauce.
I always had hatchbacks. Now I’m driving a big Mercedes sedan but since I sometimes have to transport large stuff it’s often not too easy and I wish I had chosen the hatchback version instead
I only had a motorcycle for the past 20 years and it was enough, but now I got myself a used mini cooper (damn new ones are insane expensive) because my cat's getting old and she needs a doctor more often. I'm amazed how much cargo this little one can carry, and if I need a new car, it would be a mini again, defintly! best way to cook pork? there are too many good things to count and pin point on only one.
Hatchbacks: - one of my first cars was a Datsun Cherry - a sedan. Often I had to transport some larger items - hard to fit into that small hatch. - Later on I always looked for a hatchback since I would have the opportunity to convert and also transport some larger items. Also I drove 2 station wagons (Audi A4 Avant). I expect Europeans are pleased for the additional opportunity over whatever make the Americans love the trunk. - Funny: Teslas model S is a hatchback? When the M3 was introduced I think many were sad about the small lid in the back as I was. So now they have the MY that for me is a M3 hatchback.
My fave Waldmeister thing is probably the juice/drink whatever (not the alcoholic one). As for the other question, I honestly have no preference about prepairing/cooking pork as long as the liver is left out of the equation, haha. Usually what I make at home, when cooking pork, is some form of Nackensteaks (‘neck steaks’, I guess? Don’t ask me, I have no idea.) or Minutensteaks (‘minute steaks’). Well, that or Gemischtes Hackfleisch (mixed ground meat of beef and pork).
Favorite Waldmeister "food" is Ahoi Brause, preferably with Vodka! By the way, at least in Austria, SUVs are the most sold car category, even in Vienna... The best pork dish is pulled pork! ❤️
The most important property of Waldmeister is is bright green color. It is a kind of "natural food coloring" that has remained a staple of German lifestyle since the times before the invention of artificial good colorings. That's why it's mainly used in foods like ice cream and jello or in various drinks. It's taste is not that important.
I like the “Elfen Met”, aka “Elves Mead” (a Waldmeister mead) from “Markus der Metmönch”, aka “Markus the mead monch” very much 😍 I'm not a good cook, so I don't really know a good way to prepare pork. My knowledge is basically exhausted with buying some “Halsgrat” and throwing it into the pan or on the grill 😅
To the "Random Question of the week": The best thing you can make from pork is Pulled Pork. Unfortunately, this is very rare in Germany and what you can buy in the supermarket under the name Pulled Pork, does not deserve this name. But I have firmly resolved to put a smoker in the garden, so that I can prepare it myself and not be dependent on 1 to a maximum of 2 festivals a year, where you can get good Pulled Pork in Germany (at horrendous prices). As a "good" German I am now only calculating how much Pulled Pork I have to make myself, so that the purchase of a 1000,-€ Smokers is worth it.... :D
A hint a bit late, but - next year you might try out the "Golden Oldies" in Wettenberg. It is the biggest Oldtimer Festival in Germany with at least 1000 oldtimer cars, 50 bands covering music from Elvis to Abba - mostly Rock'n Roll, a lot of people dressing up like the 50's or 60's... and about 100000 to 130000 visitors to a small town of 5000 inhabitants... There was a pause due to covid, but - this year they are there again. Well, it is just this weekend, so when you read this, I guess it is too late to go there as it is only until sunday afternoon. But just google this festival and then decide on the next year. It's three hours from your place. It's always on the last weekend of July, from Friday afternoon till Sunday afternoon.
The problem with Waldmeister is that the plant (Galium odoratum) isn't native to any of the American continents. It has been introduced as a Neophyte in recent years; but the sheer amount of time Europe and Asia had the herb probably brought forth the amount of recipes. Waldmeister is actually slightly toxic, and there are consumption recommendations given out by the Federal Institute for Risk Assessment, for example you should not use more than 3,5g of fresh Waldmeister for one litre of Maibowle. This amount would make it save for one person to consume the entire litre of Bowle in one sitting without raising their daily Coumarin intake to a risky level.
Normally, you only get a synthetic Waldmeister aroma. Not sure what that tastes like, it has been a long time. The main aroma of real Waldmeister is the same as that of the tonka bean. It's just more "green" and less "earthy".
In the meantime, six federal states prescribe the conclusion of a dog liability insurance. Namely in Berlin, Hamburg, Lower Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt, Schleswig-Holstein and Thuringia. The costs for this amount to approx. 50 bit 100 euros per year.
RQOTW: as a proud Pfälzer I have to say "Pfälzer Hausmacher Schlachtplatte" consisting of Saumagen, Bratwurst, Leberlnödel, Kartoffelpüree, and Sauerkraut. But personally, I prefer an original Bavarian Schweinsbraten with Semmelknödel. I also dig Bratwurst and Currywurst in almost every variation, Schnitzel (wo bones) and Kotelett (w bones), Spanferkel, Schwenker, Geschnetzeltes, Haschee (like a Bolgnese but wo tomatoes and Italian spices), and Frikadellen. And don't forget all the cold cuts and sausages you get at a butcher.
Technically, we actually do have a desert in germany, the 'Lieberoser Wüste' apparently counts as an actual desert (it is pretty tiny for a desert though, tbf). As I have made it a principle of mine not to mingle in culinary discussions, I can not offer an opinion your random question of the week this time, sadly. Also, love the chapter naming.
I think insurances are more common in Europe is because they actually pay out money in case of need, not just scam you by applying some page-378 clause or suing you for years in hope you just give up
Have you ever tried real Waldmeister, e.g. in Maibowle? The green colour is associated with the artificial flavour, the real stuff is not green and tastes different than the artificial stuff. I wonder if you ever tried it.
Yeah, and the real stuff is poisonous, so consuming large amounts of it isn't a great idea. Things like jell-o or ice cream wouldn't be possible with the real plant because you would need a lot to get a strong enough flavour (If you don't want the stuff tasting watery, that is).
"The Customer is always right" is just 50 % of the sentence. The full sentence is: "The customer is always right in matters of taste." In Germany we say: "Der Kunde ist König". But we also have a popular tale of a King walking around naked because only "smart" people could see the clothes and he didn't want to admit, that he could also not see his Robe. make of that what you want.
The three most important sayings of dog owners: er tuuuuut nichts, er will nuuur spieeeeelen, .... das hat er noch nieeee gemacht :-( "he does not do anything, he just wants to play, he never did anything like that before") And then it is a case for the "Haftpflichtversicherung" to pay for the cleaning of your overcoat that has got the footprints of muddy paws up to its shoulders.
There was no such thing in my youth, than having a Waldmeister Soft Icecream Corn. It was tasty. Sweet and somewhat a little sour with a litlle chemical, artificial aroma. 😊
I have a Honda Fit hatchback. I will only drive a hatchback. A pick up is not practical. Papers fly out of the bed of the pick up. If you park it, someone can steal your property out of the bed of the pick up. ~~~ I prepare pork in the microwave or on a grill. I make sure that the temperature is at least 183° F for at least 15 minutes.

Just made a world wide travelhealth insurance who covers costs for health while travelling and rescue costs..even costs to resend your dead body home. One year unlimited travel less than 52 days for just 10€/ year /Person. I am too German😂😂
So here are my comments on the topics: 1. Insurrances: One Insurance Broker told me once: "You need insurrance for everything that can bankrupt you and nothing else". In my opinion many Germans have too many insurrances, but some a still sensible. The Haftplichtversicherung for example. In Germany there a no limits on how much you are liable for. If you cause an accident that leaves someone injured permanently that he can no longer do his job, you have to pay for that persons lost income for the rest of their life. But in my onpinion don't buy insurance for the smartphone. If that breaks or smoething, it is not great but you can just but a new phone without bankrupting yourself. 2. Waldmeister Ice is great, also Waldmeister Limonade. 3. Service: Good Service exist in Germany, but you have to go to good restautants or specific Stores, mostly no chains but private stores that have very high expertice in their field and employ very knowledgeable experts. (they are usually also the more expensive ones). The biggest different is: In Germany we have strong Employee rights, as well a very high costs for Emploment (Health Insurance, Retirment Insurcance etc.). Nobody has to fear being fired if they are not overly polite and helpful. Karens would have a hard time in Germany. 5. Cars: Big SUV and Pickups in America have one one reason: Stupid tax and efficency Laws that excempt "Light Truck" because their a "Commercial Use" Vehicles. So the Automakers in the USA have shifted to sell theses car aggressivly because the can be sold with better profit margin. nothing more. Car Tax in Germany is base von C02 and fuel is expensive, so big pickups are just very expensive to have, while not being very practicle (too big). If you want a car with lots of room, get a station wagon (VW Passat, etc).
Waldmeister - I'd say it is a very sweet flower-like flavour. It tastes like it smells, and the smell is a little bit similar to yasmine. Maybe somewhere between yasmine and a gummibear. But please don't eat yasmine, I don't think it's edible. Whereas woodruff is edible. But you won't need much of it, because the flavour is very intense.
The reason for why people in the US don't buy small cars seem to be their driving culture. "If you are slower or smaller than I am then it is YOUR DUTY to get out of MY WAY because I have MORE RIGHT to be on this road than you do!" This road rage mentality led to an arms race where you are literally not safe, unless you are sitting in the biggest car. And the American car companies are more than happy to support this, not to mention the laws that regulate and limit the emission of "cars" but have no effect on "trucks" which the SUVs are categorized as. The result is that people don't want to buy small cars for safety reasons, and the manufacturers don't want to sell small cars for financial reasons.
thing 5. you think the normal sized car pulling a tailor. I actually think it looks weird when a trailer is pulled by a car that is as big or even bigger than the trailer. I mean it is fine: That is the car you have, this is the trailer that was availabe of course you gonna use them when they fit your purpose, looks aren't everything. But when people buy a giant ass car in order to pull a tiny tiny trailer it becomes redicules.
I love this channel... but I am learning a lot more about the weirdness of the USA than Germany. How is it possible tgat people think an enormous tradie truck is more attractive than a well engineered hatchback?
What’s REALLY the best way to drink/eat Ahoj Brause?? 😅
snort it like a real german kid😂😂😂
(jk of course.. drink it with sparkling water 😊)
Dip your wet finger into the pouch and lick it from the finger 😋
When i was a kid we did it this way: Put in in your hand and spit on it. Enjoy the sparkling feeling. Then lick it.
Put some on the back of your hand and lick it.
To me Waldmeister tastes like the color green.
I know, that makes no sense, but I bet many people who do know the taste would agree that it still somewhat makes sense.
Best description!👍
I agree too.
For me it is also green, because of the green gummibear from Haribo in my childhood. And of course Ahoj Brause.😀
it does even make less sense when you know that it is artifically colored green, and uncolored the waldmeister lemonade would be more brownish

This does not mean that the clerk is a servant of the customer.
The customer is a customer and must show the employee the same respect that the customer expects from the employee.
I have always said to my employees: "The customer is king as long as he behaves like an emperor.
I think decency and respect are important. "Just" because I work here does not mean I am your slave.
Indeed. And a King should never lose his temper and always show the best behavior possible.
It's similar to "the customer is always right" (even though the full saying goes "in matters of taste the customer is always right), in that you're doing a service to the customer. That doesn't mean you have to be a servant, just that there is a certain level of proffesionallism and respect.

About the first point (insurances): while our concept of insurances for everything that could go wrong is weird for Americans, Germany think it's strange to beg strangers for money on GoFundMe to help in case of accidents, illnesses, etc.
My personal insurances: Krankenversicherung, KFZ Versicherung, Haftpflichtversicherung and my dogs have Haftpflichtversicherung and my dogs and cats have all health insurance.
The American way of "the customer is always right" is probably the reason you have so many Karens and working with customers is considered a pretty stressful job. The are some German employees who are way too unfriendly/impolite, though.
Whatever you think about hatchbacks: Dein letzter Wagen ist immer ein Kombi! (your last car trip will always be in a hatchback)
As the old saying goes:first three words of a german kid:Mama, Papa, Reiserücktrittsversicherung.
WALDMEISTER is my favourite mix with "Berliner Weiße", a special beer with about 3 % alc., which is brewed in Berlin. You normally don´t drink it pure - always mix it with treacle, f. e. cherry, strawberry or WALDMEISTER. Best drink in the summer! Try it out on your next trip to Berlin. 🙂
You don't drink it pure, because it's a bit sour. My favorite Schuss is also with Waldmeister. There was a Limited Edition Schuss syrup Mix from Berliner Kindl some years ago with I think 6 different flavours...
The next step from a hatchback is a "Hochdachkombi". Basically a station wagon with a higher roof. I couldn't find a useful english translation. Same area needed in the street but much more space inside.
My dad was in the Air Force and I grew up in Germany for a good number of years. (Rhineland Pfalz --> Hunsrück --> Büchenbeuren). My favorite ice cream was Waldmeister (Waldmeistereis). So delicious!
As for pork, nothing beats a good Eisbein mit Sauerkraut or Jägerschnitzel.
I prefer Eisbein roasted.
Yeah, hatchbacks are the go-to car in Germany. Small parking slots, narrow streets, often very winding, make SUVs and pickup trucks one of the most impractical vehicles for private use here. Especially if you want to take it into some Alpine village with hairpin turns that make a hairpin look spacious.
Random question: well, depends on the cut of pork, doesn't it?
But for pork loin, a thick marinade of a honey-mustard-teriyaki with herbes a la provence in a 'tray' of aluminum, put under the broiler for 25 minutes, flipped halfway through. Yummy.
7:10 this is like explaining the taste of water 😅
Try a Special swabian recipe; Slowly cooked pork-cheeks in a dark-beer gravy with "Schlupfnudeln ".Sometimes there are some Red fruits in the gravy or some raisins . Or perhaps you want to try a "Sauerbraten",normaly eaten with dumplings .
Real Schnitzel isnt made out of pork, but of calf. Much more flavour and way less chewy or dry 👋🏻💜
You refer to Wiener Schnitzel. Any other Schnitzel can be from pork, turkey, chicken or even paper.
@@herb6677
Oh, is that why there was never a Schnitzel at the end of a Schnitzeljagd?
In my childhood you can only buy two syrups in the taste Himbeere/rasperry and Waldmeister/woodruff.
Other syrups with, for example orange flavour, we could geht in Swizerland.
Soweit ich es aus einem oder mehreren UA-cam-Videos verstanden habe, sind in den USA die SUVs die Lieblinge der Autoindustrie, weil sie nach (ich denke) aus den 1960er Jahren stammenden Regeln weniger streng in Bezug auf Sicherheitsanforderungen und Abgasanforderungen eingestuft werden als normale PKW.
Es gibt da ein sehr gutes YT-Video "These Stupid Trucks are Literally Killing Us" von dem Kanal "Not Just Bikes"
Hatte die Tage ein anderes Video zum Thema gesehen, aktuell ist es tatsächlich hauptsächlich wegen des Verbrauchs.
Große Pickups können fast verbrauchen was sie wollen, aber je kleiner, desto sparsamer müssen sie sein (bis zur technischen Unmöglichkeit), sonst zahlt der Hersteller eine Strafabgabe pro Fahrzeug.
Es liegt also weniger am Kunden, sondern am Hersteller, der bewirbt die großen natürlich entsprechend und bietet die kleinen nicht mal mehr an.
Und trifft beim Kunden dann natürlich den Nerv - bigger is better!
Die Regelung dient m.E. zur Verbrauchssteigerung, ungeachtet dessen, was eine solches Gesetz eigentlich bewirken sollte.
Waldmeister: it resembles tarragon, but it is sweeter. Its taste is not very strong but it mixes well with other flavours, ideal for fruity cocktails or longdrinks. You might even say that herb is a little like fresh basil, but much softer.
Im gonna have to go remind myself of the flavor of tarragon now…haha
what is tarragon? :D
@@michaelklaus Estragon. Aber ich meine den frischen, mit dem leichten bitteren Geschmack.
FunFact: Waldmeister flavor used does not taste like the real Waldmeister plant.
@@steemlenn8797 Yes, the stuff that the food industry uses is 100% cemistry lab.
One reason Waldmeister isn't common in the US might be that, like tonka-beans, the plant contains coumarin. Synthetic aroma doesn't contain that.
Honestly I love myself any drink with Waldmeister flavor. It's one of my favorite things, we always have a sirup or something in that flavor in the house. And I do enjoy it a lot in my ice cream every once in a while, but not as frequently.
I am dying to try Waldmeister! Sounds good. I really liked your video.😊❤
Eis Bein and pork ribs are my favourites. Neck cutlets are also beautiful. Salted (and smoked) pork legs are a perfect base for a pea soup. The broth, if you add a lot of different root vegetables, leek, onions and one clove of garlic+ 2 black pepper corns and some herbes of your own choice can make a fantastic consommé.
1:29 Says „Bratwurst“ and shows Weißwürste. My guy is doing a getting kicked out of Germany speedrun
Well I am joining you in this quest and say that Pork is alright but not the best sort of meat. I like Pork Medaillons tho
I'm from the New York metro areas & I bought two hatch-backs brand-new ( and my father had multiple hatch-backs (which is the reason the I bought 2). My dad loved them as he felt that they would have more utility when moving things. Before I bought my 1st 2 brand new cars, I drove one of his (a Toyota Corolla), later he got me to buy my brother's used Honda Civic hatch-back. As I said I was influenced by him to buy to brand-new Subaru Imprezas, obviously not at the same time but one after the other. For my 3rd Subaru Impreza, I did not get a hatch-back because that model was a $1,000 more expensive plus it was less fuel efficient so cost more per mile in gasoline. So I did not get another one but what I do miss with hatch-backs is the rear windshield wiper. I mentioned that to a colleague & he said that non-hatch backs don't need them but I don't agree!
NYC is probably one of the best examples for european style transport working in the US. Dense population that isn't exclusively in skyscrapers or single family suburbs, with smaller cars and a denser public transport network. When people are packed like that rail and bus networks are practical (because every stop can service a lot of people) and small cars have a much easier time with parking.
My father grew up in New York City and his family had no car. My mother taught my father how to drive after they got married and moved to the suburbs. He took the commuter train and the subway to work everyday for almost 20 years and my mom would drive him to & from the train station in our village everyday - we had one car growing up so it wasn’t left parked at the train station all day.
It's funny you mention hatchbacks, I've only had one friend that owned a one. His Golf was nice. I'm not sure if I'd buy one but I'm not saying I wouldn't.
And as for pork, on the rare occasions I eat it it will be in the form of a breaded pork chop. But prefer beef since you don't need to overcook it.
Legal expenses insurance is in fact so german, that german insurance companies have a 36% marketshare in the WORLD market in that sector, leading that sector by a wide margin (french insurers are second place with 12%)
But this type of insurance is pretty common in europe in general, in fact european companes as a whole have 80% of worldwide marketshare.
For me the only real use of Waldmeister is jello (Wackelpudding).
In stores most dogs aren't allowed. An general service dogs don't have such a standard as in the US. Only seeing-eye dogs or guide gogs.
Best way to prepare pork is Schweinemett on a cut up bread roll with onions and fresh ground black pepper 🤤
Love that, but in the US you'd risk serious infection, e.g. salmonella or e.coli😢
@@edricaldones9639 In the case of pork it is more about trichinosis, a parasite infection.
@@edricaldones9639 not the way it's prepared here, and also i beleive under licence . I have been eating it here in germany for the past 17 years.
Oh that's yum! Best answer.
Yep berliner weisse white beer with waldmeister cherry or raspberry syrup😋😋😋yummy
@7:09 Something between mint and vanilla.
Ich liebe waldmeistereis und das gibt es immer sobald die eisläden öffnen. Also die ganze eissaison über. Ansonsten mag ich auch ab und zu mal Waldmeisterbrause oder wackelpudding...
The best way to cook pork - depends on the piece of meat.
I am northern German but my absolute favorite pork dish is Franconian Schäufela.
Unfortunately not available from us.
This is a piece of slowcooked pork shoulder with a crunchy crust. Served with dumplings, red cabbage and delicious sauce.
Franconian Schäufele is not Sommer. Schäufele from Baden and Switzerland is smoked like a Kassler...
I always had hatchbacks. Now I’m driving a big Mercedes sedan but since I sometimes have to transport large stuff it’s often not too easy and I wish I had chosen the hatchback version instead
My favorite Waldmeister drink is Berliner Weiße with Waldmeister.
I only had a motorcycle for the past 20 years and it was enough, but now I got myself a used mini cooper (damn new ones are insane expensive) because my cat's getting old and she needs a doctor more often. I'm amazed how much cargo this little one can carry, and if I need a new car, it would be a mini again, defintly!
best way to cook pork? there are too many good things to count and pin point on only one.
Beneath Waldmeister/ woodruff, weißem Spargel/ white asparagus also Johannesbeeren / currants are not to find.
My favourite Waldmeister drink is the boentges waldgeist. Its a Waldmeister liqour 😅
Hatchbacks:
- one of my first cars was a Datsun Cherry - a sedan. Often I had to transport some larger items - hard to fit into that small hatch.
- Later on I always looked for a hatchback since I would have the opportunity to convert and also transport some larger items. Also I drove 2 station wagons (Audi A4 Avant). I expect Europeans are pleased for the additional opportunity over whatever make the Americans love the trunk.
- Funny: Teslas model S is a hatchback? When the M3 was introduced I think many were sad about the small lid in the back as I was. So now they have the MY that for me is a M3 hatchback.
Waldmeister is a refreshing sweet herbal taste which goes well with lemon and lime. It tastes soapy the same way rose mary and coriander does.
Love Waldmeister. My favourite is Flimm, which is alcoholic. And here in NRW we can get some Waldmeister all year.
I'm from Munich,so my favourite one is Münchner Schweinebraten in Dunkelbiersoße mit Kartoffelknödel und Krautsalat.
Eastern NC style pulled pork.
American love hatchbacks too. They just like them attached to trucks, hence the SUV.
Another very very popular type of car in Germany is the station wagon btw.
My fave Waldmeister thing is probably the juice/drink whatever (not the alcoholic one).
As for the other question, I honestly have no preference about prepairing/cooking pork as long as the liver is left out of the equation, haha. Usually what I make at home, when cooking pork, is some form of Nackensteaks (‘neck steaks’, I guess? Don’t ask me, I have no idea.) or Minutensteaks (‘minute steaks’). Well, that or Gemischtes Hackfleisch (mixed ground meat of beef and pork).
Waldmeister Jelly is GOATED
Favorite Waldmeister "food" is Ahoi Brause, preferably with Vodka!
By the way, at least in Austria, SUVs are the most sold car category, even in Vienna...
The best pork dish is pulled pork! ❤️
The most important property of Waldmeister is is bright green color. It is a kind of "natural food coloring" that has remained a staple of German lifestyle since the times before the invention of artificial good colorings. That's why it's mainly used in foods like ice cream and jello or in various drinks. It's taste is not that important.
I am from Austria and have never heard of „Waldmeister“. Maybe it doesn‘t grow in our country…(?)
I like the “Elfen Met”, aka “Elves Mead” (a Waldmeister mead) from “Markus der Metmönch”, aka “Markus the mead monch” very much 😍
I'm not a good cook, so I don't really know a good way to prepare pork. My knowledge is basically exhausted with buying some “Halsgrat” and throwing it into the pan or on the grill 😅
To the "Random Question of the week": The best thing you can make from pork is Pulled Pork. Unfortunately, this is very rare in Germany and what you can buy in the supermarket under the name Pulled Pork, does not deserve this name. But I have firmly resolved to put a smoker in the garden, so that I can prepare it myself and not be dependent on 1 to a maximum of 2 festivals a year, where you can get good Pulled Pork in Germany (at horrendous prices). As a "good" German I am now only calculating how much Pulled Pork I have to make myself, so that the purchase of a 1000,-€ Smokers is worth it.... :D
Favorite drink or food with Waldmeister?
Knallpudding 😆
Customer friendly means here: The customer needs to be friendly 😉
A hint a bit late, but - next year you might try out the "Golden Oldies" in Wettenberg. It is the biggest Oldtimer Festival in Germany with at least 1000 oldtimer cars, 50 bands covering music from Elvis to Abba - mostly Rock'n Roll, a lot of people dressing up like the 50's or 60's... and about 100000 to 130000 visitors to a small town of 5000 inhabitants... There was a pause due to covid, but - this year they are there again. Well, it is just this weekend, so when you read this, I guess it is too late to go there as it is only until sunday afternoon. But just google this festival and then decide on the next year. It's three hours from your place. It's always on the last weekend of July, from Friday afternoon till Sunday afternoon.
Best way to prepare pork is as a schnitzel, marinaded with white wine, herbs, garlic, salt and pepper. 😊
The problem with Waldmeister is that the plant (Galium odoratum) isn't native to any of the American continents. It has been introduced as a Neophyte in recent years; but the sheer amount of time Europe and Asia had the herb probably brought forth the amount of recipes.
Waldmeister is actually slightly toxic, and there are consumption recommendations given out by the Federal Institute for Risk Assessment, for example you should not use more than 3,5g of fresh Waldmeister for one litre of Maibowle. This amount would make it save for one person to consume the entire litre of Bowle in one sitting without raising their daily Coumarin intake to a risky level.
^^ depends on the part where's the meat from. You can make Schnitzel or Kassler or Gulasch or something else with the pork 🤔🤷
Funny side note when you talk about the stereotypes you say Bratwurst but show a picture of a Weißwurst, which is cooked and not grilled.
Waldmeister taste Like a childhood in the 80s.
I like sweat & sour pork & pork fried rice. For non-Chinese, I would say a pork chop (with apple sauce).
Normally, you only get a synthetic Waldmeister aroma. Not sure what that tastes like, it has been a long time. The main aroma of real Waldmeister is the same as that of the tonka bean. It's just more "green" and less "earthy".
In the meantime, six federal states prescribe the conclusion of a dog liability insurance. Namely in Berlin, Hamburg, Lower Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt, Schleswig-Holstein and Thuringia. The costs for this amount to approx. 50 bit 100 euros per year.
Und eigentlich sollte das jedes Bundesland zur Pflicht machen!
Waldmeister is usually applied as flavor, the real thing is a bit toxic.
RQOTW: as a proud Pfälzer I have to say "Pfälzer Hausmacher Schlachtplatte" consisting of Saumagen, Bratwurst, Leberlnödel, Kartoffelpüree, and Sauerkraut. But personally, I prefer an original Bavarian Schweinsbraten with Semmelknödel. I also dig Bratwurst and Currywurst in almost every variation, Schnitzel (wo bones) and Kotelett (w bones), Spanferkel, Schwenker, Geschnetzeltes, Haschee (like a Bolgnese but wo tomatoes and Italian spices), and Frikadellen. And don't forget all the cold cuts and sausages you get at a butcher.
Technically, we actually do have a desert in germany, the 'Lieberoser Wüste' apparently counts as an actual desert (it is pretty tiny for a desert though, tbf).
As I have made it a principle of mine not to mingle in culinary discussions, I can not offer an opinion your random question of the week this time, sadly.
Also, love the chapter naming.
I prefer a Dessert over a desert 😉😂...
I think insurances are more common in Europe is because they actually pay out money in case of need, not just scam you by applying some page-378 clause or suing you for years in hope you just give up
It is definetely green....😄
Have you ever tried real Waldmeister, e.g. in Maibowle? The green colour is associated with the artificial flavour, the real stuff is not green and tastes different than the artificial stuff. I wonder if you ever tried it.
Yeah, and the real stuff is poisonous, so consuming large amounts of it isn't a great idea. Things like jell-o or ice cream wouldn't be possible with the real plant because you would need a lot to get a strong enough flavour (If you don't want the stuff tasting watery, that is).
@@GGysar You don't need a large amount, one or two twigs are enough for a whole pitcher.
@@petraw9792 Eh, I had a plant once and I found the flavour to be rather subtle.
Waldmeister is only known in Germany, even in Austria no one knows it.

"The Customer is always right" is just 50 % of the sentence. The full sentence is: "The customer is always right in matters of taste." In Germany we say: "Der Kunde ist König". But we also have a popular tale of a King walking around naked because only "smart" people could see the clothes and he didn't want to admit, that he could also not see his Robe. make of that what you want.
I am not sure if Waldmeister is that popular.I did not have anything using it for longer than I can think.
Then maybe it’s not popular with you 😉
@@PassportTwo That's for sure 😉
I cant describe waldmeister flavour at all. So i buy ahoj brause and send it to my closest friends, problem solved
The three most important sayings of dog owners: er tuuuuut nichts, er will nuuur spieeeeelen, .... das hat er noch nieeee gemacht :-( "he does not do anything, he just wants to play, he never did anything like that before") And then it is a case for the "Haftpflichtversicherung" to pay for the cleaning of your overcoat that has got the footprints of muddy paws up to its shoulders.
There was no such thing in my youth, than having a Waldmeister Soft Icecream Corn. It was tasty. Sweet and somewhat a little sour with a litlle chemical, artificial aroma. 😊
Best way to prepare pork? Raw and minced. With onions and pepper.
I have a Honda Fit hatchback. I will only drive a hatchback. A pick up is not practical. Papers fly out of the bed of the pick up. If you park it, someone can steal your property out of the bed of the pick up. ~~~ I prepare pork in the microwave or on a grill. I make sure that the temperature is at least 183° F for at least 15 minutes.
I love my pork raw, fresh, minced on a bread roll with butter, a bit of salt and pepper and a lot of onions.
8:14 - actually germany has a desert xD
Donny needs to practise the Ü , Danny needs to practise the Ü, Danny needs to practise the Ü and the ü too. And mybe some Ö and Ü as well. Your videos got better , but -- . (I f you haven't realised it: this is a 'Great job!' from a german.)
Just made a world wide travelhealth insurance who covers costs for health while travelling and rescue costs..even costs to resend your dead body home. One year unlimited travel less than 52 days for just 10€/ year /Person. I am too German😂😂
So here are my comments on the topics:
1. Insurrances: One Insurance Broker told me once: "You need insurrance for everything that can bankrupt you and nothing else". In my opinion many Germans have too many insurrances, but some a still sensible. The Haftplichtversicherung for example. In Germany there a no limits on how much you are liable for. If you cause an accident that leaves someone injured permanently that he can no longer do his job, you have to pay for that persons lost income for the rest of their life. But in my onpinion don't buy insurance for the smartphone. If that breaks or smoething, it is not great but you can just but a new phone without bankrupting yourself.
2. Waldmeister Ice is great, also Waldmeister Limonade.
3. Service: Good Service exist in Germany, but you have to go to good restautants or specific Stores, mostly no chains but private stores that have very high expertice in their field and employ very knowledgeable experts. (they are usually also the more expensive ones). The biggest different is: In Germany we have strong Employee rights, as well a very high costs for Emploment (Health Insurance, Retirment Insurcance etc.). Nobody has to fear being fired if they are not overly polite and helpful. Karens would have a hard time in Germany.
5. Cars: Big SUV and Pickups in America have one one reason: Stupid tax and efficency Laws that excempt "Light Truck" because their a "Commercial Use" Vehicles. So the Automakers in the USA have shifted to sell theses car aggressivly because the can be sold with better profit margin. nothing more. Car Tax in Germany is base von C02 and fuel is expensive, so big pickups are just very expensive to have, while not being very practicle (too big). If you want a car with lots of room, get a station wagon (VW Passat, etc).
Best prok dish: Schlemmerspieß: pork wrapped in bacon made on the grill
Waldmeister - I'd say it is a very sweet flower-like flavour. It tastes like it smells, and the smell is a little bit similar to yasmine. Maybe somewhere between yasmine and a gummibear. But please don't eat yasmine, I don't think it's edible. Whereas woodruff is edible. But you won't need much of it, because the flavour is very intense.
Waldmeister - galium odoratum
The reason for why people in the US don't buy small cars seem to be their driving culture. "If you are slower or smaller than I am then it is YOUR DUTY to get out of MY WAY because I have MORE RIGHT to be on this road than you do!" This road rage mentality led to an arms race where you are literally not safe, unless you are sitting in the biggest car. And the American car companies are more than happy to support this, not to mention the laws that regulate and limit the emission of "cars" but have no effect on "trucks" which the SUVs are categorized as. The result is that people don't want to buy small cars for safety reasons, and the manufacturers don't want to sell small cars for financial reasons.
thing 5. you think the normal sized car pulling a tailor. I actually think it looks weird when a trailer is pulled by a car that is as big or even bigger than the trailer.
I mean it is fine: That is the car you have, this is the trailer that was availabe of course you gonna use them when they fit your purpose, looks aren't everything. But when people buy a giant ass car in order to pull a tiny tiny trailer it becomes redicules.
1:30 you didnt just call a Weißwurst a Bratwurst.
I love this channel... but I am learning a lot more about the weirdness of the USA than Germany. How is it possible tgat people think an enormous tradie truck is more attractive than a well engineered hatchback?
