        I thought I was the only one! You put them in the middle then press it slightly so they go “crunch” a little. Yum!

    And it was damn good. What’s that German saying? “Hunger makes the best sauce”? When you’re really hungry this is five Michelin star good.

      In dutch they say: “Hunger makes raw beans taste sweet”!

      when packing up after windsurfing, they would advise against taking your trapeze off (a huge belly belt that can connect you to the sail, handsfree!) before you had access too food, because more often then not, it would unleash the hunger beast within. It was fun to have that power over your own hunger! GIMME THOSE SWEET BEANS!

    We had a fish and chip shop opposite the pool. I don’t think I have eaten anything better than those salty vinegary chips, the childish exhaustion and hunger made them absolutely magical.

    I don’t get it, why you have a line of crisps next to the sandwich? And why would you have cold food with cola?

      The crisps were there because they had salt and fat. This was typical food for children after swimming. The cold food is because it was 30-40°C outside.

      Does soda have pairings like wine? I had no idea, I just cracked open sodas. What kinda faux pas have I been doing all my life? Oh God, is everyone looking at me weird when I drink soda wrong?

        If you’re not holding it in the crook of your elbow, lifting your arm, and pouring it onto your outstretched tongue, then at least one of us is doing it wrong, and I think it’s you, and everyone is silently judging you for your weird way of drinking. They don’t drink with their elbows probably because they don’t want to embarass you.

    French fries is the standard German pool food. Like, nowhere else do you see stands selling nothing but fries (with ketchup and/or mayo, of course). And they just don’t taste as good anywhere else, I guess it’s the chlorine in the air making the salt taste extra special without actually tasting more salty.
