Isn't that named after Naples though?

[–] OpenStars@startrek.website 20 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (2 children)

But... why does that look like vanilla though? I iz too dumb for this meme?

Edit: damn, apparently I need to get my laptop monitor cleaned, or checked, or something! :-P

I think its the good stuff without food coloring

no idea how but it looked white to me until the colour appeared

[–] OpenStars@startrek.website 7 points 9 months ago

Well, now I'm back on my original device (laptop), and I see the color too. Maybe it was legit white there for a bit, like a partial file upload that somehow finished?

Surely that's it. All the other comments, all the upvotes for my comment, yes, all the evidence points to that. Indeed. Surely. Indubitably.

... and yet. I prefer the alternative facts explanation that I am simply a crazy person:-P.

For a moment I imagined Napoleon having a finer taste in ice creams

[–] Phoenix3875@lemmy.world 12 points 9 months ago

There's indeed a cake called Napoleon, which is not invented by Napoleon. I know at least in Russia and China, this cake is known by the name of Napoleon cake.

Legend has it that the name originates from the Napoleonic war with Russia and since people have to throw the cake to the ground (table?) to break the sugar layer on top of it and thus the Russian people call it Napoleon so that they are breaking Napoleon.

I see no mention of this etymology elsewhere, so take this with a grain of salt.

[–] MillerLife777@lemmings.world 6 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Ohh no, given enough time even the ideas will die.

[–] cm0002@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (4 children)

I'm not so sure about that, religion is still unfortunately going strong some 6000 years later.

I'm not entirely convinced that religion wasn't just some prank some guy thousands of years ago cooked up that just completely and utterly spiraled from there lmfao

[–] eager_eagle@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

I'm sure plenty of ideas died in the meantime. But yeah, fuck religion.

[–] dudinax@programming.dev 2 points 9 months ago

Religion is obviously a mix of history with lame answers parents came up with because their annoying kids wouldn't stop asking questions and the stupid kids believed them.

[–] rocket_brewster@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

The measure of an ideas longevity is how much can someone get out of that idea. People can be made into billionaires off religious manipulation but it’s difficult to persistently benefit from Neapolitan ice cream beyond how tasty it is

[–] sneakattack@lemmy.ca 1 points 9 months ago

You should read up on the history of the Illuminati. It's pretty much that haha

[–] grue@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Spumoni > Neapolitan. Fite me.

[–] EtherWhack@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Unfortunately, it's near impossible to find in the US

[–] You999@sh.itjust.works 2 points 9 months ago

The old spaghetti factory still serves it

[–] grue@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

That's a good point. I only have it once a year, because there's one specific Italian restaurant I go to that gives you a free meal on your birthday and includes spumoni for dessert. I've never actually noticed it available anywhere else.

[–] I_Fart_Glitter@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Is it The Old Spaghetti Factory? Childhood memory unlocked..

[–] grue@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

No, although I wish we still had an OSF around here because I miss the mulligatawny soup. The place with the spumoni is a local chain called Provino's.

Ooh la lá!

[–] jenny_ball@lemmy.world -1 points 9 months ago (2 children)

i don't think it has anything to do with him though

[–] stevehobbes@lemy.lol 10 points 9 months ago

Indeed not because it’s a shitpost sub; it’s Neapolitan not Napoleon, Neapolitan meaning of Naples, Italy, they could have also used a Mille Feuille which we call a Napoleon in the US that he also didn’t have anything to do with except they were popular in fancy shops during his reign.

[–] superfes@lemmy.world -1 points 9 months ago

I hope it does die...
