Salsa is fruit salad.
Pico de gallo maybe
Salsa is a spicy smoothie
I’ve never had a fruit salad with the consistency of salsa, but I see where you’re coming from. They are very close relatives.
New York City?!
Nah, this is just objectively wrong. Even if you think of tomato as a fruit, what else is a fruit in typical salsa? Nothing.
Not a staple where I’m from, but aren’t there japalenos in there? Bell peppers ?
Awww shit. I dun fucked up. Apparently all peppers are fruits, botanically speaking.
“Vegetables” are not A Thing. The word just means a part of a plant we eat as a savoury dish. Some are seeds (like peas), or pods with the seeds still inside (green beans), or leaves (spinach, chard), roots or kinda-roots (carrots, garlic, beets), or (baby) flowers (cauliFLOWER, broccoli, Brussels sprouts - all from the same recent cabbage ancestor), lots are fruit (pumpkin, zucchini, cucumber, peppers, tomatoes). I found it fascinating when I planted my first garden 5 years ago, knowing squat about nature. Veggies are just plants where your pick the good part.
How are you defining a savoury? As a taste like sweet, salty, savoury, etc? Plenty of sweet (and salty, bitter and sour) dishes made with vegetables.
Not salad, salad is something you can “toss” in a jumble, like popcorn or some kinds of hash browns.
Salsa is generally more thoroughly mixed than that, so smoothie or maybe soup.
Hash browns are salad, confirmed.
Pizza is an open-faced sandwich.
Pizza is toast.
Hot pockets are strombolis.

Three words are absolutely sufficient:
You wanna fight?
Poptarts are ravioli
Raviolo
I bring this up every time with someone who eats a panino for lunch!
Ravioli is a sandwich.
Cereal is a soup
Ketchup is a smoothie
A hotdog is a sandwich?
No. It’s a taco.
Yeah, I put ice in my cereal. So what?
That makes no sense.
Vanilla soy bean latte is a three bean soup.
Except coffee is a fruit.
Beans are a fruit. Kinda. We mostly eat the seeds of the legume fruit. But we also use the seeds of vanilla orchids, coffee cherries, and soy beans. It’s not three bean soup it is bird food.
Just once I’d like to see one of these “x food is a y” posts that actually makes sense.
Dog food is a kibble
Pizza is tomatos
Domino’s is sheetrock.
Sheetrock serves a purpose.
Tool is overrated
Come at me
I wanna downvote you so bad but it wouldn’t be right
They said “start a fight”, not “speak basic truths”
Pop Tarts are either toast or a calzone.
The creator correctly says “jif”
It’s an acronym standing for graphic interchange format. Not that I care all that much tbh. Reminds me of parents naming their kid cVIIItlyn. Sure you can pronounce it whatever you want, doesn’t make you any less stupid. Also, iirc it was invented by a team, what do the rest of them say?
It’s an acronym standing for graphic interchange format.
That doesn’t affect how it’s pronounced.
LASER stands for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. If you were going to pronounce it based on how those words are pronounced it would be “Lahseer”.
The best reason to pronounce “gif” with a hard g is that the closest word we have is “gift” and that uses a hard g.
Just wanna say I didn’t downvote you.
I get your argument, maybe we SHOULD pronounce it lahseer, sounds cool.
Lahseer does sound cool, but I’m in favor of words being spelled as fonetikuhly as possible in English.
In order to do that, we have to clean up what each letter does first. The whole reason the gif fight started is because G and J overlap in sound values a lot. And don’t get me started on S, C, K, & Q.
And O.
But, still, there are letters that have fairly consistent pronunciations. Where possible we should try to stick with those.
I’ve given up on vowels. Mercedes, Echinacea, Manoeuvre, shield, beige, just throw them around until it looks right.
Only one guy is listed as the creator, Steve wilhite, who says “jif” is correct, famously and infamously making the pronouncement with a gif when he received his lifetime achievement award haha.

Apparently, a common joke around his office was “choosy developers choose gif”, a play on jif commercials.
He’s a troll and giggles every time this comes up. This makes him my hero.
Sure. Why not, lem
Isn’t there a video/gif asking if it’s pronounced “birthday jift”, “jolden retriever”, etc?
Gee, I’m sure there’s some genuinely genius gentleperson who registered their generous gif genuflections.
I like this statement because it’s successful on two levels. You can also argue over whether “pop-tart” counts as one word or two.
PopTart is a brand and is one word.
It’s the internet. People will argue with you even when you’re demonstrably right.
No they won’t!
Def 2 words!
Blueberry is two words now apparently.
It is also a calzone.
It’s neither a calzone nor a ravioli. Pop tarts have pastry crusts. Calzones use a leavened crust, and ravioli have pasta crusts.
They’re scones.
I’ve never boiled a pop tart
What? How do you brew your poptart tea then?
Hmmm id say a canzone is a dumpling, because it’s folded over on itself.
Actually, it’s a cheesey tomato soup in a bread bowl.
Nah, it’s baked in an oven, it’s a pasty.
Hmm good point!
A ravioli is a sandwich.
A calzone.
Pizza is an open faced sandwich.
Yeah, that’s what I said, a sandwich!😉
Alright, a ravioli being a sandwich is bad enough, but THEM’S fightin’ words.

Would probably work better than expected.
