STILL. FUCKING. DOES.
My POV while reading this post (I have not gone swimming today)
The chips go in the sandwich. Also I don’t know how to swim.
I thought I was the only one! You put them in the middle then press it slightly so they go “crunch” a little. Yum!
Less messy too when it’s white bread getting tacky in a ziplock baggy in a warm backpack. The chips adhere like glue.
Summers at various lakes memories.
My dad: “The plain peanut butter sandwiches will continue until morale improves.”
My dad: “boiled hotdogs in store-brand white bread are what the real athletes eat.”
I nuke mine, but otherwise, ya
But when you boil them, the bread gets all saturated with hotdog water. You’re missing out.
I like nuked food
And it was damn good. What’s that German saying? “Hunger makes the best sauce”? When you’re really hungry this is five Michelin star good.
In dutch they say: “Hunger makes raw beans taste sweet”!
when packing up after windsurfing, they would advise against taking your trapeze off (a huge belly belt that can connect you to the sail, handsfree!) before you had access too food, because more often then not, it would unleash the hunger beast within. It was fun to have that power over your own hunger! GIMME THOSE SWEET BEANS!
As a German I never heard that sentence before but it’s hilarious lol
It’s a little less used these days. I have German family, they’re all older, so the saying may be out of style compared to their time. It’s usually “best sauce” but I’ve also heard “beste Koch” as well.
“Hunger is the best cook” / “Hunger ist der beste Koch” is a widely known saying!
Huh, wonder it was a local variant? Either way, it’s a great saying.
I agree and I like your variant!
Dude it still does. Try that shit man a big shitty sandwich and chips fucking goes hard
We had a fish and chip shop opposite the pool. I don’t think I have eaten anything better than those salty vinegary chips, the childish exhaustion and hunger made them absolutely magical.
You put some of those chips in those sandwiches and youre cookin’
Past tense? Get back in there!

Curious about different after pool cuisines around the globe. Didn’t really realise every country could have a different take
Is there a specific reason that type of food is only available after swimming?
