This community is for sharing pictures of awesome food, not a platform to advertise.

3. NO MEMES

4. PICTURES SHOULD BE OF FOOD

I know perogi are eastern European in origin, but the name feels like a Welsh prank to me. I've seen like 8 or 9 distinct correct ways to spell pierogi, none of which I'd pronounce correctly if I didnt already know how to pronounce the word pierogue. Your piroghi pizza fills me with the jealousy of a man who loves potato and cheese but the rage of a man who hates being made to consider the word pirogi.

Meh. Every culture has a variation of "stuff stuffed in dough". Pierogi are just ravioli which are just samosas.

And Russian (баре́ники), and Ukrainian, and probably many other cultures make these. They’re a leftover of the Mongol conquest of Eastern Europe.

I’m impressed.
