You really have to try harder than that - anyway I'm fresh out of
troll food.

Do you mean the culture that has been established here by many waves of
religious and other refugees over the last millennium or so, or some
other culture?

How dare you impugn our good old native tradition of frying everything
that didn't run away fast enough ?

(Fist-on-keyboard doesn't really jbex and I could never touch-type. Could
we make it a two-finger fight instead ?)

Thinking about it, probably not yoghourt, because it'd drip through a
net. But is halloumi a culture ?


*And*, one 'l' or two ?

Wikithing says "Halloumi or haloumi", and it's boiled in whey not fried, and
then fried or grilled, and Wikithing also says "Its texture is described as
squeaky."

I like it, pro wrestling not so much. Looks very athletic and strenuous. And I
