You gotta keep info like this far away from the American media…..we’ve got RFK Jr. in charge of health FFS. We have a massive swath of morons drinking ivermectin and rejecting measles and calcium shots for their children. Not to mention all of the recalls on beef and food in the USA.

Yeah the thing is in Germany raw meat is heavily regulated and therefore we need to eat it on the same day, in general we're really careful with our productions like meat or eggs.

But Mettbrötchen (Mett-Bread) is absolutely sick, with a nice layer of salt, petter and ringed onions. The AI generated picture looks terrible btw.

At my last job, we had this every first Wednesday of the month. Team building. People called it Mettwoch (German pun combining Mittwoch [Wednesday] and Mett). It always took until Tuesday for the smell to disappear from the office kitchen.

There is also the Dönerstag. A combination of Donnerstag (Thursday) and Döner.

If you want to eat Mett every day and not only on Mettwoch, just call it Monthack, Diensthack, Donnersthack and so on.

(explanation: Hackepeter is another word for Mett)
