    The recipe you’ve linked has more than two ingredients. To say that it’s ‘mayo on sliced sausage’ is misleading. We Germans are a smidgen more sophisticated than that.

      The onions are optional (frankly never heard of it being used Fleischsalad although it could give it a nice bite), pickle juice and sugar is just used flavor the mayo, salt and pepper to taste is standard for pretty much anything savory. The only REAL other ingredient here are the pickles.

      So yes, Mr. German Police, you’re technically correct (of course), but I will count this as an off by one since you COULD just put the sausage, pickles, and mayo together and already have a decent approximation of the dish.

        I’m off by one, you’re off by one - shall we split the difference and I’ll overlook that even being merely technically correct I’m still closer than you, who’s both technically and objectively incorrect?

        C’mon, no cop is going to give you that deal.

          People like you are literally the reason I don’t live in Germany anymore.

          You sound like the kind of person who’d chew out his neighbor if their kids make as much as a peep during Mittagsruhe but start mowing the lawn at 7am simply because it’s legal.

            Wow, you have even less of a sense of humour than the average German.

            Enjoy your two-ingredient Fleischsalat.

              Says the guy who literally got his panties in a twist because I forgot to mention the pickles in a Fleischsalat while making a JOKE.

                I pointed out that your JOKE was shit. You’re the one who started calling me names, so don’t lecture me on twisted knickers.

                  The only thing I called you was “German Police”, are you telling me that’s an insult? I thought the police were a respectable and upstanding part of the German people and steadfast protector of Recht und Ordnung.

                  Come on man, if I had tried to insult you I’d have chosen completely different words, like Fleischsalatnazi, Korinthenkacker, or Oberstudienrat. But I was merely making fun of your complete and utter inability to take a joke because it forgot to mention the obligatory pickles, which, let’s be clear, is simply a wonderful example of why Germans are widely regarded to have absolutely zero sense of humor.
