Question for you all on the subject of the Bratwurst.

Bratwurst has been a staple of my diet my entire life - however, recently realizing that even Myra hadn't had one until she was 17 or 18, I began to wonder just how screwed up a worldview I had been living under, and now I'm really curious as to what regions the bratwurst has penetrated and which are still virgin territory.

So I put it to you c0r - how many of you have enjoyed a delicious Bratwurst before?

Do you have them in Australia? Are they common?


Posted by Silky Johnson on May-06-2008 20:27:

I remember having them as long as I remember eating.

This report is from the Middle Tennessee area: I was not exposed to this food when growing up.

Disclaimer: I do not speak for all TN rednecks, your mileage may vary.

COR version: the south has not been penetrated! (maybe)

The PNW has been exposed to brats, and they are win.

Thank god this is only a thread. Whenever I hear an American say the word "Bratwurst" I throw up a little in my mouth.

we just didn't grow up with bratwursts in NY. cookouts consisted of hamburgers and hot dogs and baked beans and potato chips. it's funny though, because after i had my first bratwurst during the 2 weeks that i was spending in Milwaukee that summer, i came back to NY and searched all the grocery stores until i found one that sold brats.

taco dip is another food i was never exposed to until i moved to Wisco.

yeh, you would be surprised on the sort food we have here. very multicultural.

but yes we do have them. i think you can even get some a the common super markets here, but not as good as the ones you find in delis.

Because of them pronouncing it with American accents or because you think Bratwurst are gross?



If it's because of the former, oh well, no one tell you not to be a pretentious dick about trivial things - if it's the latter, taste is taste, and you're clearly entitled to your own.

Which is exactly why I created the thread - it just seemed odd to me that the Northeast wouldn't have had the same kind of brat penetration as elsewhere.

The multicultural aspect of it doesn't surprise me, but I'm guessing if I actually visited Australia I'd definitely be pretty surprised to see things like brats there.

the proper german bratwurst/currywurst/brockwurst? or just 'sausages' in general?

i was very surprised to see them in Chile, until i found out there was a rush of Germans immigrating there in WW2.

maybe elsewhere, but not in Peekywood.

wait, do black people eat brats?

What the fuck is a bratwurst?

Sounds like something out of Roald Dahl's BFG


Posted by L.E.N. on May-06-2008 20:43:

Im down for brats...made a thread about it a few years ago.

Proper as fuck.

And brats have pork in them, therefore by deductive logic we can infer that not only do black people eat them, but they absolutely love them.

-wurst is german for sausage, and they have different ones. Brat/Brock(or brot, i forget) currywurst etc.

Mainly because the horrible mispronunciation hurts my ears. It's not about the accent, it's because the word has been integrated into the english language, not under the original german pronunciation, but apparently a modified and annoying one.

Oh yeah, and I don't like all sorts of Bratwurst, but Th�ringer is great.

To be honest, it was probably pretty harsh of me to suggest that it was a completely pretentious act to be worried about pronunciation/accent, because I myself find it very irritating when people pronounce things horribly wrong, and am also embarrassed to find out when I've been saying something the wrong way for a long time.

What is Th�ringer?
