A Polish jalapeño pastry
-
Ah that makes sense. I thought maybe the jalapeños were inside or something, but honestly your explanation is more likely and I'm just kind of a dumbass
I took thought it was actually jalapenos on the inside and wondered why wasps would be attracted if it was spicy and not sweet

Yeah, I also was like dang, I didn't know wasps were attracted to jalapenos, that is interesting! Some days I am dumb

No no, I'm pretty sure that's a Bienenstich.

What is it with European bakeries and bees? I've seen memes and stuff about it, and this one youtuber, a Vietnamese woman who's German BF never shows his face, I can't remember her name right now. She showed a bakery in Germany with bees everywhere. Why is this a thing?

I'm wondering the same thing.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]I think those are actually wasps. It's particularly common in countries like Germany and Luxembourg where native wasps are protected species. As for Poland and other parts of Europe, it's hard to keep them out when you keep the doors propped open in lieu of central AC (and they're attracted to the fresh sugar), and wasps and bees don't transmit disease anyway, so people just get used to them

Wouldn't traps near the food be a bigger concern than wasps taking a bite? Idk I live in Germany so I might be desensitized. The way I see it wasp-free pastry is preferable but if they decide to help themselves then oh well. They don't soak the food in spit and they don't lay eggs on it, they just nibble.

When eating outside we sometimes set up an "Opferteller" with left overs and put out to the side so the wasps have their thing going on that plate and we can continue to eat. It's fascinating to watch but at the same time I'm scared shitless since I had a very bad experience with nest defending wasps and my long hair as a child...

I do the same thing and then I just move slowly as not to squish or slap them accidentaly. Works much better than shooing them
Wasps have a bad reputation but they're useful and kinda cool honestly. -

wrote on last edited by [email protected]I'll never understand why people call wasps "bees". They are extremely different. It's like calling deer "horses". Why is this a thing?

Ya know, I have to hang my head with a lot of the "Really, America?" shit. Yes, my home is a bit weird.
But it's not like we got aaaaaaall the weird.
It is fukin bizzare to let insects crawl on your food and then desire or use said food in any way other than feeding pigs. -
Yes. A measured response.

You're mad. Out of your mind. That's not uncommon on the internet. There are many of us.

the 'joke' is that they are spicy (jalapeno) because Poles are supposed to be stupid (according to the joke teller) and would eat them with bees still on them and get stung in the mouth.
Fuk me. I'm of slavic descent and have heard a lot of polish jokes, but I had no idea what was going on here. Thanks for the explanation.

Ya, that's an odd odd thing. I know people that live around actual bees, watching the commercial hives swarm in the fields during pollination. They really know what bees are. And then when a wasp shows up, they are like "Fukin BEES!!!" and break out with a can of poison.
