Factor the day it's been National dishes that weren't invented
where you think they were basically loving I'm gonna do
some quick fire ones today. Are ones that people might know,
probably a bit more well known that they're not where
you think they're from. Hawaiian pizza not from Hawaiian, not
from Hawaii.

Speaker 2 (00:33):
Where is it from? Canada?

Speaker 1 (00:36):
A Greek immigrant called Sam, which is weird because his
name almost sounds like pineapple, and that's what he put
on the pizza. He said that they were making like
traditional American food and stuff, but start of experimenting with
trendier foods, Chinese American dishes and such, and one of
the main ingredients used in a lot of Chinese meals

(00:59):
was pine He's like, as we'd woe and we put
a fruit on a pizza. Yeah, And then he only
said Hawaiian pizza because it said Hawaiian pineapple on the
can oh okay. I I love pineapple and like a
stir fri and a sweet sweat and sound.

Speaker 3 (01:14):
If there's a Hawaiian pizza, I'll just eat it and
I'll be like that's young yum.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
Yeah, like a really nicely like wood fired Hawaiian pizzam
great ham, nice chip, lots of cheese, and like a
flame grilled pineapple, like the flame grilled it before they
put it on the pizza, so it's like smoked, the
most caramelized.

Speaker 2 (01:34):
Like got to be one of my.

Speaker 1 (01:36):
Top tier pizzas. Okay, yeah, but then if I was
ordering one pizza myself, I'd never get Hawaiian. I'd never
do Hawaiian.

Speaker 2 (01:43):
But when it's not upset it Yeah, the.

Speaker 1 (01:47):
Next croissants not French, not French, where are they Austrian?

Speaker 1 (01:54):
I love the pastries and Austrian ki fu, which was
a traditional yeast bread rollde with lots of but that
has rolled and formed as at crescent before baking, and
so it went flaky and pastry. But the French kind
of held kind of stole it. Yeah, okay, yeah. Sour
kraut Polish nope, Chinese oh yeah, the Chinese were making

(02:16):
German German, German German sauer kraut, German kim cheese, sour kraut,
but Korean yeah, well, spices. Apparently while building a Great
Wall of China, it was a staple for me to
because it would last, it would be able to.

Speaker 2 (02:29):
Take it with them. Yeah, when you're building a wall
and good gut health, no wonder they build a great wall.
They got a great wall out of it. I'd say
when it comes to one of the best, I'd say
thousands died.

Speaker 1 (02:42):
Yeah, tens of thousands died making that wall, but they
didn't die hungry.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
No, they did it and they had great gut health.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
Cheesecake American? I always thought American because the factory and
you get New York style cheesecake.

Speaker 4 (02:58):
Is it like only be European, Asian, Greek, African Greek,
Ancient Greek to the Greeks.

Speaker 2 (03:09):
He knows that Greece is in Europe. It's fine country.
Touch you have been to Greece. I have been. Did
you forget with you to ethics and make it?

Speaker 4 (03:21):
That is Greece and the country's touched some of them
touch in Europe.

Speaker 2 (03:25):
But island. What country is that island that we went to,
that's Greek. It's a Greek island. No, the Greece part
touches countries can not touch to like New Zealand for example,
we don't touch another king.

Speaker 1 (03:40):
I really should have done geographic Greece has parts of
the country that touch other countries.

Speaker 2 (03:44):
Greece and the Greek islands. Crazy, so the islands of Greece.

Speaker 1 (03:49):
Could we just be like, well, actually, you're that part
touching the other parts.

Speaker 4 (04:07):
Um.

Speaker 2 (04:08):
I ate some chicken us today that I probably shouldn't have. Yeah,
I think it's gone to the brain.

Speaker 1 (04:11):
Smiled me because then I panicked and I was like,
you know what stops? And this is my honest thought
of why I never get food poisoning. Yeah, alcohol, it
kills the dugs.

Speaker 2 (04:20):
So I chased.

Speaker 1 (04:21):
I got scared about the chicken making me sick, so
I drank some Jamison's.

Speaker 2 (04:25):
They would expire messages that I was ascending last night.
He was loose, lept last night.

Speaker 1 (04:32):

seen like as a group for years tonight.

Speaker 2 (04:38):
You know what we're like when we go to a wedding.
We get excited the night before, an't we always have
a big night the night before the wind before the wedding.

Speaker 1 (04:44):
So the Greeks have vented cheesecake and their bloody islands
don't touch their mainlands, and got great surnames.

Speaker 2 (04:49):
I got yogurt and cheese.

Speaker 1 (04:50):
Sorts of shenanigans going on over there. So to this
week's Fact of the Day has been my pleasure that
chicken's gone to the brain.
