    The german term for horse shit is “horse apples”, Pferdeäpfel. Proof that horses are really potatoes.

      That doesn’t make sense. That makes horses apple trees not apples.

      In the US south, we also call horse shit ‘horse apples.’ That’s pretty cool, that the translation persisted.

        TIL why the ‘horse apple pie’ I ate in grade school tasted like shit.

        I thought I just didn’t like eating horses.

      As a Czech I find that utterly absurd.

      We call it “doughnuts”.

        Preposterous. You should get your head czeched.
