Foods that Start with S

^ I call them mangetout, I've hardly ever heard anyone use 'sugar snap' or 'snow pea'

Snow peas tend to be called "mangetout" in the UK (in Waitrose and Tesco, at any rate). What are called "sugar snap peas" are visibly thicker.

The sage photo you use doesn't seem very representative of the photos that show up when you do a Google image search for "sage". For one thing, most of the latter have leaves much more elongated than in the former. For a second thing, your photo obscures the coarse texture of sage leaves that is more visible in the Google photos.

It was pretty obviously sage to me. That's about what my sage plant looks like.

Doesn't look like any schnitzel I've ever eaten :)

Not everyone is from the U.S, please accept edamame as well as soybean.

sedamame*

Edamame doesnt start with S though

They are.

Sunflower seeds are larger, with black and white stripes

I had problems with a few ... sage doesn't usually look like that around here - more narrow and pointy and greyish. Soybeans are practically never used fresh (green)

Starfruit is also called carambola! Add this typein!

No!

That schnitzel looks very much like fish & chips.

The schnitzel looks just like one I would cook at home. And the sage plant looks like the one I have at home growing in my garden.

Surprised at how few knew soybeans. Maybe just comes with being a vegetarian.

I have only heard of it one maybe two times. One was a travel gameshow. Where the challenge was they had to find a local to make it for them. So I remembered it, but never heard of it before. (And I vaguely remember once since, where more people did seem to know it and I was huh how do you all know this. But maybe I dreamt that..)

I feel bad for you not knowing what they are. In the way that, you're missing out. They are delicious.

"Also known as Emmental" is misleading. Emmental is just one variety of several thousand different Swiss Cheeses. Would be better if it said "Emmental or Gruyere for example"

Agreed, it threw me for a second. Huh it has another name? Then I thought ah (example of) holey cheese.

edit I do not know though if gruyère is a Swiss cheese. Not questioning it, just do not have the knowledge (I know it is Swiss though).

I believe the Dutch Leerdammer and Maasdammer are both Swiss cheese for example

Got them all second time round. I did spend ages trying to think of the US name for watercress, then realised it isn't watercress...

BTW yes what's the deal with "Swiss Cheese"? Is that just what Emmental is called in the US then? Isn't e.g. Gruyere cheese also Swiss cheese?

Sushi is the best!

Fun reading the comments to see how regional some of the terms for food are.

That being said, where I come from the only schnitzel we see is pork. Took me a while to get that one.

accept spaghetto singular? according to your interesting facts, that’s a valid term, and the picture does contain more than one spaghetto
