      probably cause it’s an austrian invention? which makes it austrian by defintion?

      it’s common in germany, but not native…that’s like saying pizza is a german dish…

        at what point does it become native? 50 years? 100?

        would you call new york food italian to the face of an italian chef?

          it’s not a question of age; it’s a question of origin.

          that doesn’t change.
