    TIL.

    I guess Germans don’t have that answer because for a German “No scolding is praise enough.”

      I’m an American immigrant married to a German, and it definitely took us a bit to adjust to each other’s feedback styles- he thought every dish he made was my new absolute favorite, and I thought he disliked my cooking at first, because I’d say something was delicious and he’d say it was fine, lol.

      But I’ll take it, because this way Germans think I’m quick witted when I respond with that.
