Reply to comment by andygchicago in Consumers respond less positively to new products when their brand names use unconventional spellings of real words, like “Klear” instead of “Clear.” Findings showed that consumers saw these names as indicating the brand was less honest, down-to-earth and wholesome. by geoff199

in Austria, horse is the best meat, especially for our national to-go-food
"(pferd[e])|leber|käs|semmel".

pferd[e] = horse[s]
leber from laiber. laib = loaf
käse = cheese (it has the size of a cheese-loaf, before sliced)
semmel = kaiser.

don't be confused by the käseeberkässemmel, where cubes of Emmentaler cheese are added, before the leberkäs is baked in the oven.

both the leberkässemmel (without "pferde"), and the käsleberkässemmel are made from pork. confusing, but delicious.

ceterum censeo "unit libertatem" esse delendam.

The longest German word ever coined was a law meant to prevent exactly that.

Rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz - the law to transfer the duty of monitoring the labelling of beef
