An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.

https://dullmensclub.com/

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine or advice forum.
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions, identify objects or get advice. We accept very few questions, and they must be over topics much more difficult than what is easily discoverable with a search. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

6. Not hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

8. All polls must have an "Africa, by Toto" option. Why? Because we hear the drums echoing tonight.

What exactly are potato waffles and what is the preferred method if consumption?

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Ever since the first time I saw a box labeled "potato waffles," I thought they were basically hash browns, but I just looked it up and apparently this is the source of some controversy.

So to answer your question ... They are either hash browns or not hash browns. Probably they are consumed in a manner similar to hash browns.

They are either hash browns or not hash browns.

Thanks for the clarification.

Nope they weren't fried and were more like that:

(But mine were uglier)

I followed this recipe (in French).

I ate them as a side dish.

Step 2. grind them finely with a robot.

I love machine translation.

I haven't seen anything like that before, but admittedly my French cooking knowledge comes from high school French class and Julia Child.

That's what I thought. I'm trying really hard not to be offended right now rôfl
