The pepper jack sausage kolache at Buc-ee's was the tits but it's gone the way of the dodo bird.

As for calling meat and bread as kolaches being a sin, I hope those same people order sliced grilled chicken breast at Mexican restaurants and don't order chicken or mixed fajitas.

Would only be fair and righteous if you're gonna die on that hill.

Yep, kolache dorks are often the same as the "there is no such thing as a chicken or shrimp fajita!!!!" dorks.

Nobody - absolutely nobody - outside of your circle of dorks cares. Nobody.

I also hope those people don't call just any sterile adhesive bandage a "band-aid", because that, too, would be factually incorrect.

Until the kolache dorks united and started preaching their crap on Texags, I had never heard of anybody ever throwing a tantrum calling a sausage or ham and cheese or boudin or brisket kolache a kolache - because the vast majority of the world calls them a kolache. Because they are a kolache in common modern vernacular.

I'm also German and generally don't care what inferior countries call their food. I'll just blitzkreig right over them anyway.


Unless the forecast is for rain.

Then you will hide in a bunker and post about how the rain is derailing "your blitzkrieg project".

i was laughing the other day when someone made a post about how they thought Italian food did not live up to the hype. a bunch of people chimed in with things like "if you are eating cacio e pepe anywhere but Roman, then you are in a tourist trap in [insert Italian city]."

i was thinking its 2025. Are Italians really still locked into their 2 regional dishes?

It's been a minute.

But it's been a hell of a lot longer (if ever, I don't care to look it up) since anything Czeck has conquered....well, anything. And about 25% of Czechia (since Czechoslovakia doesn't exist anymore) speaks German.

Heil Germania! Sausage kolaches for errbody!

"But it's been a hell of a lot longer (if ever, I don't care to look it up) since anything Czeck has conquered....well, anything. And about 25% of Czechia (since Czechoslovakia doesn't exist anymore) speaks German."


This is a direct result of an area called Sudetenland! This area was a major influence on Hitler and his maniacal actions. The sorry ass British and French sold out Czechoslovakia in attempt to prevent WWII. Their actions simply wet the appetite of Hitler and his drive to conquer the world.


I do enjoy me a heavy Bavarian beer along with a good Bockwurst and sauerkraut

That's true. The big neon donut sign does say "Shipley's Donuts"

That Kroger doesn't sell anything but anger and frustration. I only go in there if we just need 1-2 things and don't feel like going to HEB.

I'm 100% Czech and I couldn't give less of a sh-t about any of this. I don't know what's worse, people trying to convince everyone what is or isn't a kolache (who cares anymore?) or the dorks on here who are totally opposite and are like "hahahahaha I'm going to call everything a kolache and you can't stop me!!!!" Fine. Good for you. Dork.

Hit the OG Shipley on Main this morning. They're now doing boudin kolaches full time in conjunction with Frenchy's. They're okay but bread to boudin ratio is a little off. Less bread in my opinion.

Which begs the question - can boudin and bread truly be a kolache since it's a little bit of meat and a little bit of rice.

I'll hang up and listen…

I love boudin. I love kolaches. I do not like boudin kolaches. You're stuffing a carb with mostly more carb with specs of meat. If there could be an alternate boudin link made that was more meat than rice, then I'd get on board.

If you find yourself 30 cars deep waiting for doughnuts you could buy in 10 seconds at any grocery store might want to re-evaluate your life.

Or just park and walk inside and you'll be in and out in 2 minutes max.

Similarly, the best Czech is a canceled Czech.
