Tric'hard you may have just unintentionally reduced future citizenship petitions to one simple sentence. I know that's what I'll be doing moving forward.

My wife and I are huge fans of Survivor, and we're watching Season 50 as a family as it comes out.

We had a Cajun food truck in town for a while. I talked to the owner, he was from New Orleans. I was pleased to find this place, they sold home made boudin, and had gumbo and Po' Boys. Unfortunately, they were expensive, and some of the dishes weren't very good. I would have figured a dude from New Orleans would make some good gumbo, but it was pretty bad. People in my town aren't familiar with Cajun foods (I've gotten weird looks and comments from the clerks at Walmart whenever I buy bags of crawfish), so this food truck didn't get much business and eventually shut down. The boudin was very good, tho.

An excellent choice, Iason. Do you have a favorite restaurant? I am partial to a place in the Louisville area called Indi's.

The best local fried chicken is from a place called Italo's. It's a locally owned business with a few locations in the area. Their chicken dinner is just a cardboard box of fried chicken with jo-Jo's and a side of cole slaw. When I lived in East Liverpool (Feiabalsa Oriental in Talossan), the local Italo's was within walking distance of my house. I was friends with the delivery girl, and sometimes she'd give me extra chicken for free.
Aside from Italo's, Popeyes is the best place. The chicken and biscuits are still good, but the sides are pretty bad. I dunno about nationally, but our local Popeyes doesn't sell dirty rice anymore, they have red beans and rice, and it's awful.
Best fried fish is from a place called Mark's Landing. It's near Vitxalmour Conductour's house. Every Friday they have an all-you-can-eat fish dinner, and it's superb. (My area in Ohio is pretty good for fried fish.) (For traveling Talossans, I live in Columbiana County, Ohio. It's mostly farmland with towns scattered here and there. The local cuisine is improving since we got an influx of immigrants from Guatemala and Mexico. Highly recommend a place called Rancho Viejo, none of the staff speak English, but the food is cheap and fantastic. Best tacos I've ever had.)

Oh no you can eat them whenever you want. When we want some we just go to our nearest Lidl and get some.

What you're trying to say is that you eat them at Fat Thursday before fasting.

😂 Agreed. But this is the brand that's available everywhere around here.
Until today, I also added an "s" to pluralize "Pączki". But am I pronouncing it properly? Around here we say it like "punch-key". (I love pączki, but you can only get them certain times of the year. I think it revolves around some religious holiday.)
AD, if you can find them, the frozen bags of crawfish are acceptable. The ones from Louisiana tend to be better. Walmart used to sell ones that were products of China, Spain, and Egypt. Like I said, these things are precooked and seasoned, and sometimes the non-Louisiana brands had a funky seasoning on them.
I gave this topic some more consideration, and decided fried chicken is actually my most beloved food. I am ashamed to admit that I've still never had Barberton chicken, which is a popular style of fried chicken in these parts (it's of Serbian origin.)

Just over two kilogrammes is not that bad if you're a family of three. Though I could eat that myself in one sitting too. And their "pierogi" look like a hybrid of the Russian pelmeni and some other dumplings. I wouldn't call them pierogi.

I agree -- the maximum size is a paltry 5 lbs?  I need way more for a family dinner.

I just said that pierogi is already the plural... sad.

Thank you for informing us about this, but I would imagine the majority of people in my region don't know that. Even a company that makes them calls them pierogies.
It's the one thing that us Poles are sometimes struggling with.
