I have rarely been as offended as I am right now

  1. Next up: “The Dutch are known for having the best beer in the world.” and “The Dutch are known for having the best chocolates in the world.”

  2. I think we can all agree the Dutch know nothing about food. This was probably written by some American that wanted to get high in Amsterdam, so take no heed.

  3. The Dutch? THE DUTCH?! This is outrageous! We hardly have anything good going for us and then they give the credit of great fries to the Dutch?! I have only eaten fries in the Netherlands once and I was throwing up the entire night after. This is ridiculous. It’s bad enough that fries are often called “French fries”, but to say that the Dutch have better fries just adds insult to injury.

    Sorry for the rant but come on!

  4. Mayo? Dat is frietsaus. Uitgevonden door de hollanders en smaakt naar verdunde sperma. Volgens mijn grootmoeder althans…

  5. OMG! The “voted number 1 holand fries” and “most famous fries street sale in Amsterdam” actually it’s named MANNEKEN PIS FRIES. There must be a good reason!

  6. they are ‘known’? by who?
    mayber this is one of those instances where they think belgium is part of another country (you know, like they sometimes think it’s part of France).

  7. As a Dutch person: what the actual fuck? Is this some ignorant American take from a “journalist”that went to Amsterdam once and ate some fries? Everyone knows the Belgians have the ultimate superior fries.

  8. My Belgium friends, I’m very very sorry about this. But of course they say Amsterdam instead of The Netherlands.

    This is some uncultured ass who doesn’t know shit about either Belgium or The Netherlands.

  9. Ze staan in A’Dam inderdaad in de rij… Allemaal locaties waar ze “Belgische Frites” verkopen :’)

  10. Whoever wrote this article forgot that Belgium exists. THEY’RE THE ONES WHO INVENTED FRIES, YOU DINGUS.

    (I am not making fun of OP, I am actually making fun of the author of the article)

  11. Must be made by an american. They’re completely oblivious and ignorant on a lot of things but especially their geographical skills which I’d rate a solid 1 out of 10

  12. As a dutchman, this is vile. I love making fun of you guys as much as the next guy, but you deserve credit where credit is due. The beer, fries and waffles is your territory

  13. To really rub it in, I know what the rest of that sentence is.

    In Amsterdam, there’s a frites shop called… and brace yourselves for this… “Mannekenpis”.

    Not only has the article suggested Dutch fries are superior, but the example they’ve used for this is a ‘Belgian-style’ eatery..!!!

    (Full disclosure: I’m British, and thus have no skin in the game, but – for what it’s worth – the best frites I’ve ever had were at ‘t Brugsch Friethuys on sint-Jacobsstraat in Bruges alongside a hearty portion of ‘Flemish stew’)

  14. If you look up the picture it’s even taken in Ghent (says “Gante” on the website but I assume that’s what is meant, it’s Belgium in any case), that makes it even worse somehow

  15. That’s not mayonnaise. Looks more like one of those molten cheddar slices that come in a plastic wrapper. This is a war crime.
