#Räksmörgås #SwedishFood #sandwichesofhistory For International Sandwich Sunday we are heading over to Sweden for Räksmörgås. A super fresh, shrimp based, open faced sandwich with a touch of dill. Thing is, it calls for Swedish rye bread. And I’ve heard Swedish mayonnaise is different than here in the states. So strap in because today we’ve got some making and baking to do. And because there’s zero chance I did everything correctly, please accept my apology for not exactly nailing [insert whatever I got wrong here]. It won’t happen again.

#CornSandwich #RecipeRemix #sandwiches Not gonna lie, I don’t think I’ve ever seen corn featured as a main sandwich ingredient. Yet the good folks who published 1,001 Sandwiches in 1936 said, “sure, why not?” I mean, that is a lot of recipes to pay off so I get it. This is one of those recipes that seems like it wasn’t thought though. Not that the flavor combo is bad but just the technique is odd. And, rather than put it off for another day, I decided to haul off and do a Recipe Remix on it today. Unfortunately, that means I didn’t get a chance to test it in advance. So yeah, directionally I thought it went well. My similar to how technique kinda hampered the final outcome of the original, so too did my technique. Oh well, I’ve got ideas for how to right the ship but that will have to wait for another time. Btw, if you’re digging Sandwiches of History, why not tell a friend? I’d appreciate it.

#sandwich #sandwiches #historic I have to admit, when I see a recipe with the name Peanut Butter Sandwich, I don’t expect there to be other ingredients involved. Yet, the folks at Household Searchlight Recipe Book of 1937 thought differently. No, they sought to combine peanut butter with both savory and sweet elements. And really, it ain’t that bad?

#WaffleSandwich #oddsandwiches #inthechipswithbarry Time for another sandwich of our history. Specifically, one shared by Eric who said his mom made him the Waffle Sandwich everyday before school. He also said that it is likely one of the reasons he was overweight as a child. And I think once you watch the video, you’ll agree. That’s not to say the sandwich isn’t tasty though.

#1930s #historic #oddsandwiches Today, we’re taking on another sandwich of regional history. Specifically, the New Jersey Sloppy Joe. For the record, this is no way related to the tomatoey ground beef concoction that is the more widely known Sloppy Joe. No, this one supposedly originated when a local politician came back from Cuba where he had spent time at a bar called Sloppy Joe’s. Apparently that bar laid out the ingredients to make sandwiches and he came up with this. Upon arriving back home he requested a the Town Hall Deli in South Orange, New Jersey to cater his poker game with these kinds of sandwiches and they just sorta caught on. I say these sort of sandwiches because while the recipe calls for two kinds of deli meats (I’m using a recipe from taste.com) which ones you use are up to you. I opted for turkey and pastrami.

#ThousandIslandSandwich #sandwiches #sandwich If you’re like me, you see the name Thousand Island Sandwich and your first thought is, “ok, open bottle of dressing, pour onto buttered bread, end of story. Got it” Welp, the good folks behind 1,001 Sandwiches of 1936 have ask you to join them on journey. A journey of making a kinda thousand island-ish sorta filling. Yeah, sorry, it ain’t a magical journey. But it ain’t a nightmare neither so there’s that ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Landfills, chemical waste facilities and power plants are more often built in poor and minority communities, which don't have the power or money to advocate for themselves. For decades, these communities have called for environmental justice: the idea that people shouldn't be forced to deal with more pollution because they belong to a certain race, national origin or income bracket. It's a simple notion, but America has struggled for decades to implement any policies that actually protect poor and minority communities from environmental toxins. Now, President Trump's budget seeks to end the Office of Environmental Justice and cut overall funding to the EPA by 31%. What will happen to the marginalized communities that most need a government advocate?

#tito #yugoslavia #history Hey Madlads! Today, I am looking at the beginning of the history of Yugoslavia, from World War One to the end of Tito's control of the country. Due to how much information I have to share, I have decided to make this History of Yugoslavia a two-part series. In next week's video, I will look at the fall of Yugoslavia, the civil war that came after, and where the former Yugoslav states are today. Thank you all for watching! Be sure to like, subscribe, and share this video with all of your friends. I will be starting a patreon soon, so be sure to look out for that in the coming weeks. We are within 100 subscribers of reaching the huge milestone of 1,000, so every way you all can help share my content is greatly appreciated.

Conservatives are obsessed with the idea that the left wants to erase Britain's history. Yet that's precisely what happened when its empire collapsed after 1945, as re-writing the past became a matter of state policy executed on an industrial scale. Here Aaron Bastani explains what was called 'Operation Legacy' and how those who care about historical truth aren't right wing pundits and MPs, but the people toppling statues.

n which John explores historical and political context to understand what caused the Russian government's invasion of Ukraine, and how we arrived at this awful now. There is a LOT of misinformation in comments, so why not read directly from SOURCES? But first, CORRECTIONS: The official language of Ukraine is Ukrainian. "National languages" as a phrase was confusing. I should've just said that 30% of Ukrainians speak Russian as their first language. Also, the etymology of "Ukraine" is not settled as "borderlands." Many Ukrainian linguists argue that the etymology of Ukraine comes from words meaning "In My Land," not "borderlands." Thirdly, I misspelled Kyiv as Kiev. If I made further mistakes, let me know and I'll amend here. Now, SOURCES: Putin's claims that Ukraine never had "real statehood" have been stated in both essays and speeches. Here's some coverage of one such speech: https://time.com/6150046/ukraine-stat... And a fact-check of the same speech: https://www.washingtonpost.com/politi... If you want to read Vladimir Putin's essay where he expounds his theory that Ukraine "was created entirely by Russia," you can read Putin's meandering, surreal, ahistorical essay about it here: http://en.kremlin.ru/events/president... (This is an insecure site owned by the Kremlin so bear that in mind) This article goes into far more detail about Putin's theory of Ukraine's illegitimacy than I could cover in the video: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/02/21/wo... You can learn about the Holodomor here: https://www.britannica.com/event/Holo... or at this thoroughly researched wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holodomor And about Stalin's forced deportation policies here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Populat... Putin's reference to assault in the context of invading Ukraine: https://www.businessinsider.com/putin... The 1991 Independence referendum results: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1991_Uk...

Does this count as part of the Civilization series? Of course it does. Also maybe Self-Fulfilling Idiocy?

The History of Portugal by WanderTooth. We spent about 2 months in Portugal and found the stories of its history fascinating. From the first settlers, the Romans, the Moors, all the battles won and lost, Kings, Queens and other nobility and eras of dominance followed by eras of oppression. All of this has shaped the Portuguese people, from the food they eat, to the songs they sing, to they way they interact with others and so on. A visit is highly recommended and there is something for everyone. Landscapes, castles, Roman ruins, Port wine tasting, Fado music, beaches, and more. And being a relatively small country, everything is easily within reach! GO! ENJOY!
