This episode is a master class in trolling French speakers decades down the line (it should be “omelette au fromage”/omelet with cheese. “Omelette du fromage” means omelet of cheese)

It’s one of like three episodes that I can actually really recall with any accuracy.

This is a shitpost community. Screenshot here appears to be Twitter and so the context isn’t quite the same. Without context, any shitpost potential it has falls a little flat.

OP being shown wasn’t in here. Although if that’s Xitter, then the entire site qualifies, I guess.

It is called lemmyshitpost, not lemmybullshitpost. So they have clearly a point. /s
5 daysThis is just a statistical error. The average American eats 0 pounds of cheese per day. Cheese Georg, who eats thirty billion eight hundred thirty-four million pounds per day, is an outlier and should not have been counted.
you’ve clearly never been to America. My friend Graham eats at least 100 lbs a day

Those a rookie numbers. If you’re not slamming 100+ lbs of the orange every day, can you really call yourself American?

NFW I’m getting anywhere near slamming Chief Cheeto (unless we’re talking newspaper headline style). Proudly “un-American” here.

Had to look it up, about 40 lbs per year per person https://www.ers.usda.gov/data-products/chart-gallery/113732
Yes, they were exaggerating for comedic effect. It’s actually WAY more than that.
These comments are blowing my mind. Are people just pretending that this isn’t a humorous post?
No, Americans do not eat 90 lbs of cheese per day. She was making a joke.

The average human eats like 3 pounds of food a day iirc. If even a pound of that was cheese you’d probably die within two weeks. I don’t get the joke in this post.

Jean-Luc Fromage is a fantastic name for a parody account
I hope this isn’t a planetary alignment situation

It’s an average. That means there’s at least one American out there eating more, possibly far more, than 90 lbs of cheese a day.
Fromage georg out here eating 10,000 lbs of cheese a day, skewing the average
Man I wish I could afford to have 90lbs a cheese of day.
I’d finally experience happiness, both by having immense amounts of cheese, and from dying from eating immense amounts of cheese.
I shoved a couple of blocks down my throat during the national anthem. For lunch I microwaved a couple of blocks and added them to my coffee. My remaining blocks I’ll probably have in a smoothie.
Is this a photo where the cheese wears camouflage or something? I’m trying really hard.
It’s very hard to say this, it really pains me, but… Here it goes… I agree with the French guy.
(I’m Dutch)
Ah makes sense, thanks!
Is that guy who replied really French though… xD holy shit, he looks more French than France. His surname is even fromage.
Ja, flinke export ook, maar smaakt niet zo goed als in Nederland. Niet te vergelijken. Gouda bijvoorbeeld. Lekker in Nederland, plastic in buitenland.

Can you imagine how much it would cost if was actually real cheese? That’s like 40% water by volume.

I hate to say it, but the French are right on this one. I feel dirty. Hold me.

Don’t forget your 8 glasses of gravy per day! All part of a balanced American diet
And it’s gotta be that weird white “gravy”. WTF even is that shit? Is it just hot ranch dressing? 🤢
White gravy is basically just roux with pepper. You use the rendered fat (plus some butter) from the meat you’re cooking, add some flour, let it cook for a bit and then pour some milk in. Salt and pepper to taste, there ya go, white gravy

If you’re my mom or grandma, you use the crisco tub in the fridge full of used bacon grease, cooking oil, butter, margarine, and yes, even some crisco, and you make it with that.
I didn’t know what I was fed for my entire childhood was nominally a “white” gravy until well into adulthood.
It was pretty good though, NGL.

White sauce? The one you pour over asparagus?
And they eat that in the morning müsli? 🤢
I think we’re talking about different things, asparagus isn’t usually topped with sauce in the US so I’m not sure what you’re referring to. And cereals are usually eaten with milk
American white gravy is just bechamel/besciamella with lots of black pepper.
Isn’t bechamel usually made with butter? White gravy uses the rendered fat of sausage or bacon so it has that smoky savory flavor
Isn’t bechamel usually made with butter?
Yes, but so is white gravy, usually. The white gravy served with fried foods (like fried chicken, chicken fried steak) tend to be made with butter, but the white gravy served at breakfast (like sausage gravy on biscuits) tends to use excess sausage fat.
But if you go and make bechamel with a roux made from rendered animal fat instead of butter, it would still be a bechamel.

Not sure this should be on a shitpost sub. If I’m eating that much cheese a day, I’m not doing anything close to shitting for a good few weeks
