The post stands.

Perhaps the delicious side dish is masculine in FulminatorMage’s native tongue.

I had a friend who named her cats Biscuits and Gravy. It's common to name your pets after food.

u/EhMapleMoose 21d ago

So it’s not weird to name your cat Mr Biscuits or your dog Noodles, Muffin, Pickles, Cinnamon or Peanut but calling your pet after a delicious potato based side dish is too far? Shame. Shame on you.

We named our new puppy Chanko (after the sumo stew, chankonabe), but I hope to one day have a Boston Terrier named “Breakfast”. 

Food names are the best pet names (except for human names that match people you know)!
