That's much more than mildly.

Well it’s got one meatball. Serves you right for not ordering the meatballs sandwich.

Also mildly infuriating is the lack of crosspost button so I can add this to !mls@lemmy.world — I guess it only appears when the post originates from a piefed instance?

Frankly I think this would justify homicide

Assuming that's real, it would be totally justified to throw it against the wall and demand a real sandwich

There's federation issues between piefed and lemmy currently. It's not like this normally.

Swede here, no one in Sweden has ever served meatballs with white sauce of any kind (no idea what it is) and dill...
Highly doubt the meatball ingredients are even close to correct either.

mildly?

Looks like a Polish thing, pulpety w sosie koperkowym.

Lol

It's Minnesota, they are more scandanavian than Scandinavia, I don't trust you

Crossposts is definitely an option for Lemmy posts as well. What client are you using?

I'm guessing it's a white gravy instead of a brown gravy, so colored from cream and flour. I've only ever had brown gravy and lingonberries with my swedish meatballs, but then I've also only ever had them at Ikea which I'm sure isn't the best representation.

Looks like 3 meatballs to me?

To be fair, it only said "meatball" and there's at least two of them instead of only 1.

The pwa

If you served this in Sweden you'd get angry side glances and passive aggressive snorts.

I'm assuming the same can be said about USA with this particular sandwich lol

Sorry, I have no clue what that is. Mobile or web?

If it’s mobile it could be hidden behind the share button. If it’s web… idk tbh. I mostly use mobile. But I’ve got both Piefed and Lemmy accounts (been trying out Piefed on occasion) and I’ve been able to crosspost between the two, but I did notice federation is a bit slow

Nahhhh please tell me the guy bought it back and asked for a refund, because that's terrible even for stadium food lmao

I dislike shrinkflation, but this is egregious!

no no that's a mistake, they can fix it or take it back that's just insulting

PWA is short for progressive web app. It's the website plus a little extra browser magic so you can save it to your phone's home screen.

No, those are meat ellipsoids. Only one of them qualifies as a ball.

So exotic!

This would be "midly" if it was a $5 gas station sub

That's not a sandwich. That's a piece of bread that got fucking trafficked.

Feeding this little is a war crime in more civilized societies.

Boo, Swedish meatball sandwiches have meatballs and beetroot salad.

bet it’s the same cum they put on their cinnamon buns

That's just some bread with jizz on it

I mean, it's called a meatball sandwich, not a meatballs sandwich. You're lucky you got two of them! /s

And pickles! Jizz 'n Pickles would be a wild band name.

It looks like there's 3 to me. Practically gluttony.

Must be a ska band

Seems like they probably skipped the broth. Looks basically just beschemel, though, being generous, it may have a bit of mustard, sour cream, and/or some herbs mixed in.

Guess beef prices have hit everyone

Any food in the US that's qualified with will typically baffle anyone of said nationality.

!shittyfoodporn@lemmy.ca

Can verify, extremely baffled.

Where to even start... Pathetic, overpriced and I doubt that the quality of the 'meat' balls meet even supermarket quality, or even IKEA. The garnish should be beetroot salad and the bread a baguette. At a minimum.

A crime against common decency, a culinary affront and a cultural offence.

That's true in every country, you should see "pizza Americana" or "American fried rice".

Hell, it's true just traveling across the US. Try "Phildadelphia Cheeseteak" a few hours' drive out of Philly. They'll ask if you want marinara.

Accurate but I was trying to expand beyond "Americans using food words wrong". (Also, "wrong" is culture purity nonsense in this context. Food and language evolve and that's fine.)

You're right that prescriptivism is fundamentally nonsense, but it's been more than a decade and I still put airquotes on "pizza" when referring to it around Pittsburgh, because I don't want to mislead visiting relatives

An American claiming America is better at scandinaviaing than Scandinavia, is the most American thing I've heard in my life.

What is that even supposed to be? Even if the bread was full of whatever that is it would look disturbing.

So someone decided that this is the sandwich they would sell to the public and said this is fine?

What the heck is this shit!!just make ur own at this point
