Nobody in their right mind uses words like "Palatschinken", "Paradeiser", "Piefke" or "Schlagobers".

Explain to me how the word "Quark" has any reason to exist.

[–] manucode@feddit.de 21 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

What else would I call it? Certainly not "Topfen".

Yeah, it's pronounced ['krapfə']. Written something like Krapfo.

True. It's Kreppel, obviously

Paradeiser

I believe they called them that because the first people to try them liked them so much, they thought they were in paradise.
