I mean where did you eat? At McDonald's?

Never orders greek salad, not even in greece - it is contaminated with feta.

Edit : more specified reason

Sheep-milk cheese.

I thought it was common across the whole Balkans. It's a wonder.

Go to Greece now! And order a Greek salad!

I bet vetty is one of those easternerns that formed lines outside McDonald's after the "liberation"
Too bad. Like liberalism you'll eventually conclude it's crap

I thought Peta was a US invention.



Oh, F-e-t-a, as in the cheese. Well whoop-dee-doo, Greece has secured ownership of a Macedonian creation...

[Bereta_Eder]

Since Macedonia is Greek(not FYROM) it was only natural.

The ruling was interesting. Sets acquis communautaire for further noms d'origin. Seriously.

[DRoseDARs]

Except Macedonia is Macedonian, not Greek.

[Bereta_Eder]

Oxymoron. Like feta without oregano and olive oil.

[DRoseDARs]

But you're all hairy and eat nasty cheeses, so I guess it's all the same.

We fart a lot too.

That I'll blame on eating feta.

[Bereta_Eder]

The illegal danish type probably.

[BlackCat]

Didn't thought you greeks was eating that

[Bereta_Eder]

It's the greek flags you put on the boxes

[BlackCat]

Well. We should maybe try the same with danish wine and export it to greece

Indeed. And it could lead to some serious progress in this regard in international bargainings as well. IIRC, many Asian countries are in the same position as Greece.

A hefty congrats to Greece
