    Ok, but that's still weird in my mind. That's not raw, that's preserved.

    Uncooked ham is pretty common in the U.S., too. Anything labeled "country ham" is dry cured, and is usually uncooked. Prosciutto generally isn't cooked, either.

    In terms of imports, the U.S. has approved the importation of some Spanish hams (jamón ibérico and jamón serrano) that are cured but not cooked, as well as uncooked prosciutto from Italy. The regulatory hoops are a little more difficult and hard for small producers to justify, but there are a handful of producers who have received the appropriate approvals to export to the U.S.

      When Spain claimed sovereignty over the area now known as Texas, they didn't actually have de facto control.

      A big chunk of modern day residents of Texas trace their lineage back to waves of German and Czech migration. One large wave showed up in the 1830's and 1840's, negotiated a treaty with the Comanches who still controlled the land, and established German-speaking settlements through much of Central Texas. So actual control over the land was established by Germans more than it was Spanish.

      Even in the portions of Texas conquered by Spanish settlers have now been settled by people who don't trace back to those Spaniards. The Spanish-speaking people of Texas declared independence with the rest of Mexico and became Mexicans. Then, after the war of Texas Independence, were mostly driven out by English-speaking Texians who had migrated from America (and largely trace back to to English, Scottish, or Irish migrants).

      So no, modern day Texans are more German than they are Spanish. Just because the Spanish were the first to do it doesn't mean that they or their descendants actually held the land in the centuries that followed.

      Okay, I misread the original claim, my bad.

      However, the majority of Texans according to the 2020 census is of latin/hispanic ethnicity (40.2%), followed by 39.8% white.
      I don't know what US americans need to claim any descent or ancestry, but I have a feeling that more people would claim spanish than german.

                    That's fair, you're probably right.

                    Still, my original reason for making a comment is probably true, too: the actual displacement of Native Americans from Texas probably mostly happened at the hands of European Americans who weren't Spanish, because the Spanish were themselves displaced before Texas was "settled" by European Americans.

                      Spain is Europe, too!

                      In the end, all of the European colonists played a role in the genocide against native americans. And my remark mostly was just a snarky reminder that it wasn't uninhabitated land that was settled.

                          That's not Germany that's Bavaria. Come on, every country has that one part full of crazy people that you don't want to compare the whole country to.

                                It's in the airport. Actually, Airbräu is the only brewery that is located in an airport as far as I know. It has also weirdly cheap (and very tasty) beer for being both in "Munich" and in an airport .

                                  In defense of the restaurant (because I used to go there a lot) they also have a selection of vegetarian and vegan dishes. They do serve Bavarian classics and that's their main focus, but there are always some "modern"/"alternative" dishes.

                                        I moved from Bavaria to Saxony about two years ago. I always thought the whole "The West" "The East" thing was a joke and no one actually talked and thought like that.

                                        Then I realized that it was just that there is "The East", "The West", and "Bavaria". Bavarians don't identify with "The West". Nothing "The East" says about "The West" applies well to Bavaria. It's just a very shielded microcosm. Bavarians don't identify as Germans. They identify as Bavarians primarily. They are doing their own thing.

                                          The “Perfect For Sharing” title should be placed on the top part of the box. At first glance, I thought the last meal was the one for sharing.

                                          I thought it was meant to be for if youre dumping someone and dont want the meal to last long or to pay for their food. Get in, have your 'last meal' together and then drop them and get out lol.
