Swede here, no one in Sweden has ever served meatballs with white sauce of any kind (no idea what it is) and dill… Highly doubt the meatball ingredients are even close to correct either.
It’s Minnesota, they are more scandanavian than Scandinavia, I don’t trust you
Boo, Swedish meatball sandwiches have meatballs and beetroot salad.
That looks so good. Definitely another Swedish meatballs I’ve tried. That looks 100x better.
An American claiming America is better at scandinaviaing than Scandinavia, is the most American thing I’ve heard in my life.
First off I’m Canadian, and secondly America isn’t, but Minnesota is.
First off I’m Canadian,
Wasn’t expecting that
and secondly America isn’t, but Minnesota is.
Minnesota is a part of America, hence my wording.
Any food in the US that’s qualified with <nationality> will typically baffle anyone of said nationality.
That’s true in every country, you should see “pizza Americana” or “American fried rice”.
Hell, it’s true just traveling across the US. Try “Phildadelphia Cheeseteak” a few hours’ drive out of Philly. They’ll ask if you want marinara.
Accurate but I was trying to expand beyond “Americans using food words wrong”. (Also, “wrong” is culture purity nonsense in this context. Food and language evolve and that’s fine.)
You’re right that prescriptivism is fundamentally nonsense, but it’s been more than a decade and I still put airquotes on “pizza” when referring to it around Pittsburgh, because I don’t want to mislead visiting relatives
Reminds me of how Germans still have this image of America being full of cowboys with six shooters on their hips.
Fellow 'muricans: if you ever get a visitor from Germany, take them to a Wild West reenactment. They will NEVER forget.
I’m guessing it’s a white gravy instead of a brown gravy, so colored from cream and flour. I’ve only ever had brown gravy and lingonberries with my swedish meatballs, but then I’ve also only ever had them at Ikea which I’m sure isn’t the best representation.
If you served this in Sweden you’d get angry side glances and passive aggressive snorts.
I’m assuming the same can be said about USA with this particular sandwich lol
My bet would be just plain confusion - “why are you calling them Swedish meatballs if you don’t make them like meatballs are made in Sweden?”
Looks like a Polish thing, pulpety w sosie koperkowym.
Seems like they probably skipped the broth. Looks basically just beschemel, though, being generous, it may have a bit of mustard, sour cream, and/or some herbs mixed in.
That’s much more than mildly.
I mean, it’s called a meatball sandwich, not a meatballs sandwich. You’re lucky you got two of them! /s
I ate at a restaurant that did this once. The kids menu had “spaghetti with meatball” which they got a kick out of.
It was the size of my fist. They served my single-digit age children like a 3/4lb meatball each. They still tell tales of the legendary meatball to this day.
It looks like there’s 3 to me. Practically gluttony.

Well it’s got one meatball. Serves you right for not ordering the meatballs sandwich.
That’s not a sandwich. That’s a piece of bread that got fucking trafficked.
So someone decided that this is the sandwich they would sell to the public and said this is fine?
If it had more meatballs, sauce and such, it has a chance. But the picture is sad and dismal, why not complain?
Billionaire stadium owner showing how much he cares about the fans.
That’s just some bread with jizz on it
And pickles! Jizz 'n Pickles would be a wild band name.
Must be a ska band
Non-existent portion aside, that looks disgusting.
Frankly I think this would justify homicide
that bread looks like foam
This might give you botulism
Assuming that’s real, it would be totally justified to throw it against the wall and demand a real sandwich
This would be “midly” if it was a $5 gas station sub
Feeding this little is a war crime in more civilized societies.
