>he's never eaten some smoked lake Superior whitefish while sitting in a waterfall.
>>22191286Washing it down with an ice cold Vernors.
>>22191286i took a class in college where we learned that nearly all fish near industrial cities in the US are highly contaiminated and should never be eaten
>>22191297Enjoy that Tyson and Monsanto food though bro. And please don't question what was done to that Chinese garlic you bought last month. Please don't.
>>22191286think you mean lake AMERICA libtard
>>22191286But you never "pretended otherwise". So don't claim you did. Fag.
>>22191301Same thing. Superior=America. Interchangeable words bro.
>>22191286>>22191300>>22191307do americans really eat smoked fish, stuffed pastries and hot dogs?
>>22191389It's america bro. Just Michigan alone has more land than most European countries and that's one of fifty states. We eat everything. Literally.You can find better, more authentic Korean food in America than in Korea. Same with Polish. Same with French. Same with Chinese. Same with Japanese. You can literally get better Indian food in a random Louisiana gas station than in all of India or Britain. Etc, etc, etc.The world hates us so much because we are the world. That's what makes them seethe.
>>22191400You Reddit space like a fag.
>>22191412Ok. Keep seething.
>>22191412Wow seethe much? Stop obsessing over America
>>22191400Nobody seethes at America, we just laugh at your exceptionalism and childish rage-bait.
>>22191447>He said, in American English, lest he be irrelevant.
>>22191286I eat a good amount of Lake Superior fish, much of it I catch, picrel is my backyard. I prefer smoked herring (cisco) and trout, not a fan of the oiliness of whitefish.
>>22191300I used to fly to the Detroit area for work and I got to try one of these pasties at a place called Superior Pasties in Livonia. Got it with gravy on the side. The guy running the place seemed like a real son of a bitch but the pasty was delicious.That and coneys (underwhelming) where the only MI foods I had. Oh and Jet's which was good
>>22191465Nice spot anon. Smoked trout is my favourite too, haven't been fishing for awhile though.
>>22191286Does Little Caesars count as Michigan food?
>>22191473Yes. All things flow from these waters. It started in Michigan. Like all good things.

>>22191483Wimpys>Bates>Greenes
>>22191473Literally better Michigan Food than food in michigan
Dutchfag here. Do Americans eat smoked eels? They are very nice
>>22191493Eel is not big here and from what I have been told, most of our eel production is sold to Europe. Never had smoked eel, but have had eel a few times, its not bad.
>>22191286Are they like trout? Less or more fishy? I have a weird thing with fish, I generally like all of them, but if I eat too much saltwater fish I get nausea from the fishy taste. Trout on the other hand, I can eat as much as I want.
>>22191495Neutral and clean. Why would a freshwater fish taste like a saltwater fish?It's why people like it smoked so much, because it's just like eating smoke.
>>22191286>fish is bestnope.pot roast is best.
>>22191286do the natives call it ‘chigan? I would get real exhausted saying the entire word all the time, just sayin.
>tfw middle eastern food from Dearborn.If 9/11 was the payment for good shwarma then I gladly accept.
>>22191885No, natives call people from the upper peninsula "yoopers", from "U.P. (upper peninsula)". And people from the lower peninsula are called trolls. Because they live South (under) the Mackinaw bridge. Trolls live under bridges.So, yoopers and trolls.
>>22191400thank you for standing up for America. everything you said is true.
>>22192059those are the names for the inhabitants, but what do ‘chiganders call their state? surely not the whole government name? by the time you’re dead you’d have lost so many weeks of your life to that
>>22191495It takes a fair amount like trout but is a very oily fish, which not everyone likes. The oilyness only bothers me when smoked.>>22192236Yoopers say UP, trolls say Michigan or do the mitten thing and occasionally say under the bridge. The last one seems to primarily be yoopers who became trolls.
>>22191400>faygotThis shit writes itself
>>22191400USA USA USA
>>22192316it almost sounds like a civil war is brewing
I went to Michigan once. The little fish restaurants were good and it's a beautiful state outside of the cities. I was very disturbed by the whole "party store" thing though. They are not miniature party supply stores. I'm pretty sure Michigan is the only state that calls those stores party stores.
You might have Himalayan salt in your cupboard but do you have Detroit salt?
>>22192521All you need for a party are zigzags and whiskey. Party stores have zigzags and whiskey.
>>22192498Nothing new.>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superior_(proposed_U.S._state)
>>22192521Michigan’s answer to NYC’s “bodega”
>>22192683It really needs to happen already. Not being an edgelord or memeing. It's horseshit that the state effectively does nothing for the upper peninsula while still collecting taxes. If they put a tax line at the Mackinaw bridge where no money could flow south the upper peninsula would probably have all of its roads paved in gold at this point. Instead we just watch the state give it to detroit nignogs on welfare every year.
>>22191301None of old shitpants' changes are going to be permanent. No one even acknowledges them. Chud incel faggot.
>>22191412There IS NO 'reddit spacing', you fucktard. How new are you?Go away and don't return.
>>22192690Yes, I know but party store is misleading. I was expecting miniature Party City and I got a regular old corner store. In some parts of Boston they're called packies as in Package Store. I wonder how many other funny regional variations there are.
>>22192723It's not misleading though. When a midwesterner thinks "party" we're not thinking birthday cakes and balloons and shit. "Party" very specifically means, to a midwesterner, "let's get drunk/high". So, why wouldn't you call the place that sells the means to do those things a "party store"?
>>22192738im from the south and just recently moved up here. I get it, but its just better to call it a corner store
>>22192765Don't lecture us. Don't you people call Sprite "Coke" like God damn savages?
>>22191286How were you able to eat or even breathe while inside of a waterfall?
>>22191291Should I do it? I love ginger ale and I've never been able to try Vernors. Black cherry is also one of my favorite flavors. But it says it's more of a tart instead of sweet flavor. How true is that?
>>22192785I went to this one waterfall in michigan, nobody swimming in it, you would die, super fast moving water into a narrow gorge >>22192738I was absurdly impressed by how easy it is to get drunk high in Michigan - gas stations sell hard liquor and cannabis stores are everywhere. Pasties were just ok. The veggies were raw so they didn't fully cook when I ate it.
>>22192785Waterfalls come in all shapes and sizes in Michigan. One of my favorite past times is to simply pick a random county road in the UP and drive slowly with the windows down listening for falling water. Every few miles you'll hear a random waterfall off in the woods. Many are just tiny things you can sit on and dangle your feet over while having a doobie.
>>22192765Most party stores aren't on a corner. I'd call it an ABC store if I was still in Alabama, but since I'm here in Michigan, I use the local name. And the stores here have far more types of products.
>>22192800That is not a waterfall, that is a cascade.
>>22192819Ok. Enjoy the concrete buddy.
>>22192723>In some parts of Boston they're called packiessounds very on brand for bostonians
>>22192783everyone i met called it soda. i never got that stereotype and im from the yeehaw state
>>22192783You call soda "pop" and lollipops "suckers". Your regional slang is booty cheeks.
>>22192848pop is gay, but whats wrong with suckers?
>>22192848You're the product of Ebonics and a bukkake accident.
>>22192821>imgphonefag alert
>>22192859Welcome to 2026.
>>22192872people still use desktops lil bro
>>22192874Yes, I still have a windows XP machine. It's exclusively used to play PC games from when those were good. Could you please explain to me what benefit you get from buying a $2000 GPU and upgrading to Windows 11? Because I'm still not seeing it. If I wanted to play a Bethesda or Ubisoft game (I don't) I can just save money and play it on a console.If you don't use a desktop for work then you're an idiot if you're still using a desktop.
>>22192059you think they call Lake Superior “The Soup” up there? that would be pretty badass
>>22192904No, it's not really the kind of thing you disrespect with a nickname. If anything it's also called by its native American name of "Gichigami", "big sea". If you've never seen it please keep in mind it's literally the largest fresh water lake in the entire world. It's bigger than half the states.
>>22192821I'm the one who has the lake in his backyard.>>22192904Soup is common but mostly an inlander thing, all of us on the lake just call it the lake, not much need to differentiate here. Get away from the lake and suddenly there are lots of lakes, so inlanders have to be more precise. The Soup, Lake Soup, Soup Lake and plain old Soup are all fairly common but most people seem to prefer plain old Soup and the oddness of usage that goes with it. >>22192962You sound insufferable. Soup and its variations are way more common than Gichigami and not disrespectful in the slightest.
>>22193075Nobody calls it the soup. Your inbred family is just retarded.
>>22193080My family just calls it the lake. You sure a thin skinned and arrogant for a yooper, you a troll trying to switch sides?
>>22191400All those authentic food claims are objectively wrong though if you ever actually went to any of those countries (you won't thoughever)Authentic implies you are preparing, serving and cooking the food with the same ingredients in the exact same way you would if you were in the country of origin, but you have no frame of reference for what is authentic because you will never leave your home state
>>22193075>most people seem to prefer plain old Soupbased…>>22193080any family that calls it the soup are winners in my book
>>22192888sorry lil man im on win10 and im playing ps2 games, but its ok someday you'll play real games
>>22191286You are correct. Michigan is best. There's a little shop in Indian River, that has the absolute best smoked fish
>>22193417Playing jagged alliance 2 right now. Sorry you're a zoomer that has to emulate ps2 games instead of just playing your ps2.
>>22193424buy me a ps2 and every game i have on pcsx2
I'm convinced Michigan gives people the left overs when it comes to our food. All the LC in Michigan are fire, but then when I go to Ohio all the memes of it being garbage are true. Even faygo and verners tastes like ass out of state.
>>22193531Shh.
>>22193531how does vernors compare to canada dry?
>lake fish and beerWell I guess I'm inclined to agree
Which are you? I'm in the Detroit footprint but also like hearty farm fare.
Aren't the great lakes horrifically polluted?
>>22194047wouldnt be surprised considering canada and the jeet menace
>>22193656michigan food sounds amazing
>>22194047Erie is pretty bad, with Lake America being somewhat less polluted but still not great. Superior is the least polluted. None of them compare to some of the stuff that goes on in the "developing" world or the former Soviet states.
>>22191484Telway>Wimpys>Bates>Greenes
>>22192551Got an email from Indeed that included a job listing for a heavy equipment operator in the Detroit salt mine. I think the pay was $32 per hour?
>>22192819That is not a cascade, it's a party store.
>>22193090>but you have no frame of reference for what is authentic because you will never leave your home stateMy home state is as big as your country.
>>22191983I got so much of this when I was flying to Livonia for work. Not from Dearborn but from Livonia, Novi, Farmington Hills etc. So many good Middle Eastern joints with fresh squeezed juices and all the garlic sauce I could want. Fucking good stuff
>>22194963There's a little truck on telegraph snd Van Bourn, just before the blue bridge of 94 that sells good ass shwarma. I just wish there where more bakeries in downtown Dearborn. I want me some good baklava closer to me.
>>22194608That's not a bad rate for Detroit. There are plenty of places you can live in the metro that are both affordable and not the setting of RoboCop. The salt mine rarely gives tours anymore so having a job down there gives you an air of mystery.
just tried vernors. tastes like puke. way too sweet and tastes like vanilla or something. sticking to canada dry
"white fish" is not a type of fish
Michigan Detroit is where the Robocop is from. I heard they have a lot of colored pepo
thoughts on Ice Mountain spring water?
>>22196075I'd guess its a grayling Normally you'd remove the scales before
>>22196082Don't think that's correct. I watched that movie and most of the characters, criminal, cops, and corpos, were white. Yes, there were a few black cops and at least one black criminal but in the movie most of Detroit was white.
>>22195115Is that the one that looks like a funky bus with the flashing Shawarma sign? I always pass by it and never try it.
>>22196082Yes, Detroit is a shithole. Every time I drive through it, I get sad thinking of its heyday and how far it has fallen.
Louis >Too many ragheads there now and the lesbian trinity is incentivizing more browns to move there. It seems every asshole has opened a brewery. If you have the money move West and bunker down with the whites while you can >>22196495True and the state is dying but Dan Gilbert did a decent job of gentrifying it so at least you won’t get robbed or stabbed now
>>22191297Boy do I have news for you, kid. And it ain't good.
>>22196492Yeah. It's pretty cute. Smashin Wings in Dearborn is cool too. I go there all the time.
>>22191297>I took a class in college where we learned...OK, so do you agree or not? Do you hold the opinion? Do you hold any opinion? Or are you just recounting things that happened to you, like you're the narrator or having some sort of episode? What's wrong with you?
