winter tires have more friction, this means more fuel is needed and if you use them year around, the profile will get flat sooner, so you have to replace them for safty reasons. as far as i know, i don't drive :)
Also winter tires can have a lower speed limit then the car is registered for which is allowed in winter but not in summer. And technically you can drive winter tires because all season tires are winter tires with a middle ground
yes they have more friction espicially in the summer, because the material gets softer in the heat, so you lose way more material then with summer tires
@@tamadesthi156 additionally, winter tires on summer roads are bad for people with respiratory diseases. The tiny metal or rubber studs rip into the asphalt and create road dust from the tiny articles of asphalt that get ripped off the road every time a car drives by. Road/air conditions immediately improve every summer when people change tires and the roads are cleaned of winter debris
@@ladythalia227 "Tiny metal studs in winter tyres"? Wherever did you get THAT from? Source, please!? If you mean "spikes", those have been illegal in Germany for decades.
plus, winter tires will wear off faster in summer and won't drive that well because the rubber is softer and not that heat resistant
Spaghetti Ice has a special taste and sensory.
The bottom layer is freshly whipped cream. A large amount of vanilla ice cream in noodle form is placed on top.
As a result, the cream freezes slightly on the surface and gets a crunch.
On top comes strawberry or raspberry sauce, which freezes easily due to the larger surface of the ice cream. And then white chocolate as Parmesan, mint leaves or pistachios as a basil substitute.
It really tastes very special. It's almost impossible to do that at home.
If you ever visit Germany, search for a real ITALIAN Eisdiele and try it. In the cone you should taste Waldmeister Woodruf-Ice, it's also typical German.
I ate it for the first time in Italy this summer, never seen in in Austria before. It was not my thing. The noodles are just one massive blob of vanilla ice cream.
Very good explanation, except I doubt all your claims about freezing.
@@ncoppens well it was invented in Germany (probably by an italian) so you should try it at an italian Eisdiele in Germany.
@@Rico-oz4ct I will give it another try the next time I'm in Germany. Is it particularly good in a specific region?
@@ncoppens It's a German stable and not particular to any region. You will find it everywhere in Germany.
i didn't know kohlrabi is barely known in the us, always thought it's more of a universal thing like potatoes lol
i wanted to give the english name here, but google translate only told me that "Kohlrabi" is "Kohlrabi". thus i assume that there is no translation at all, and it really is unknown eg in england, ireland and the usa !?
but there are translations for scottish Cohlrabi(?), french chou-rave, italian cavolo rapa, netherlands Koolraap, spanish colirrábano/colinabo, portuguese couve-rábano, romanian Gulie, and even some asian languages ?
@@Anson_AKB "German turnip" seems to be an alternative name. So, yes, it's basically "our" vegetable. Although, to me, it's more like our grandparents' vegetable....
It's probably because Mc Donald's doesn't do kohlrabi that's why it doesn't exist in the US 😏
OMG hate it since I was a kid 😳
Only if it's cooked into "Kohlrabigemüse" in Sahne Soße 🥺😂
My thoughts eather
7:30 It's normal Ice-cream with strawberry-sauce on it. But the best part is the whiped cream that freezes under the ice cream.
I swear it tastes better than normal ice cream
It´s the composition of all these three ingredients. My absolutly favorite icecream(and Pistacio and Raffaello)
Then there's me who doesn't like whipped cream ^^
I like having strawberries on top, though
Nah the whipped cream is the worst part, I used to always specifically request they leave it out
Must be big business to sell German Windows and Spaghetti ice in the US.
To the Tires of we Use ist in the Summer it’s doesn‘t do hold long
for every window, you get one spaghetti ice for free!
I can't imagine installing German windows in American houses, I think they're too heavy for the light construction of wooden houses.
The German windows won't work in American houses, because they need a stable wall.
And Döner
A Bretzel from the morning is stale by noon. To get the most of it you really need to eat it within a couple hours. Whoever seriously said they´d send you one are either trolling or have no idea what they are talking about.
Wintertires are softer so you´d burn through them way faster.
the idea of receiving a Brezel shaped rock in the mail is just cruel.
probably will be a frozen one to heat up and bake ready himself
@@TheIncredible1984 How does it stay frozen on a trip from Germany to the US in the mail.
@@geneviere199 sorry do not know the english word for it: Kühlakkus work for 3-4 days (at least the ones that were used in my pakages..internet says they only work for 8-10 hours).....but i just looked it up and it seems delivery to USA takes 10-15 days....was thinking it is like 3-5 days
Bretzels need to be eaten super fresh, when they are still somewhat warm so that the butter melts. Butter? Yes, of course - you need to slice the thick part in half and spread butter on it!
You sit on the toilet when you are at home or a guest in someone others home. It’s very disrespectful to “stand-pee” because the toilet can get really dirty. And the friend(s) or the family will know that you made the toilet dirty and someone has to clean it up again.
Yes and this someone will be the man who „stand-pee“ in my home! In fact he will not only clean the toilet but deep clean the hole bathroom 🤬
@@phiobe6043 This man would never be allowed in our bathroom again. My wife and I have a strict sitting rule.
I always pee everywhere standing but if the toilet seat gets wet (admittedly that happens almost always) I just wipe it with toilet paper briefly. This is also polite and I do not have to sit down. And after the third beer at the latest, everyone pees standing up anyway, even if you're a guest, so why not doing it right from the beginning.
I’m from
The uk I always sit and pee but if it’s public toilets I will stand no way will I sit there I think most men sill stand even at home and that’s weird to me it’s sill
@@vomm If someone got pee on any surface that's not the inside of the toilet in my home, I'd expect them to do a little more than wipe it away dry.
Regarding Kohlrabi: You can eat the whole vegetable after peeling, it is solid inside. And you can eat the leaves as well. I like it raw, but also cooked. A Kohlrabi dish i like is the Kohlrabi with the leaves cut up cooked in a white sauce with meat balls, and peeled potatos as a side dish. There are a lot of options. It tastes a little cabbage-y and has a distinct flavor. Another milder option would be Mairübchen. Smaller, white, looks a little like oversized red radishes. You can eat that raw or cooked, as well. I add them to my special potato salad.
I just love raw fresh Kohlrabi. As long as it didn't turn too 'wooden' I definitively prefer it over, say, an apple.
@@ixiwildflowerixi same. I don't like it when it's warm at all, I like it best when it's raw.
Kohlrabi also makes a Great salad.
I regularly eat raw Kohlrabi with Guacamole. Love it. That being said, it tastes like farts.
What you can use as a Substitute is the stem of a Brokkoli. If you peel away the woody outer part it's very similar
spaghetti ice so good 👌
1.: there are no dumb questions
2.: Winter tires are more soft and in summertime they rub of more rubber and have a bit less friction. And mostly: winter tires have a lower speed limit (but I think that does only matter in Germany on the autobahn 😁
In addition to that: The softer rubber mixture gets warmer/hotter, especially when it is warmer. That leads to faster degradation of the tires and actualla loss of grip (when used in summer). Same principle applies to motorsports as well, they also don't use "wets" in dry conditions - wrong mixture and profile.
breaking distance is better with winter tires on snow and summer tires on dry or wet roads, and worse when using the opposite type.
there was a picture in the video. guess which tires can handle more water on the road ...
personally, i always had "all weather tires" which are worse than the respective "correct" types, and better than the respective "incorrect" types, but i mostly didn't drive a lot or long distance anyway, and mostly only in town.
You've never visited Quora if you say that there are no dumb questions. Oh boy have i read questions that make a stone look smart.
yeah mine have a speed limit of 190 km/h the summer tires 250 km/h but i drive a Polo, so it doesn't matter at all.
@@Bioshyn As a former Polo driver: Maybe if you drive down a steep hill? (you may need to also be in a vacuum).
Just a few notes from my side:
- DW stands for "Deutsche Welle" and is part of the German public broadcast.
- Regarding winter tires - do not use winter tires in the summer the material is not meant for the temperatures and the safety is not guaranteed. Winter tires allow better control over snow, mud and ice but summer tires are more efficient and you have to use less fuel.
At best, your winter tyres are going to wear more quickly. At worst, your braking distance is a lot greater than you anticipate.
you can also buy all-season tires. Putting on new tires every few months if you don't drive much isn't exactly cheap either.
@@Otte74 That's what I meant if you don't drive much, it's a waste of money to change them constantly at the mechanic's. It's only worth it if you drive a lot.
@@Habakuk_ If you got into an accident in winter with your sommer tiers .. you got some percents of responsibitry.
if you drive less .. you can use all-weather-tiers, but .. winter tires have been situational mandatory since December 4, 2010 (regions with lower tempreatures, more snow like the south of germany).
@@SkeeveTVR I wrote something about all-season tires not summer tires tip read everything :)
Actually I had my AHA moment during this video - I had no idea that you don’t know Kohlrabi over in US.
I live in the Czech Republic (neighboring country of Germany), we call it “kedlubna” and it is absolutely common here. It’s even one of the first vegetables you usually prepare for your baby when starting with solid food.
Pretty sure that they do have it
@@DonDadda45 Propably yes. 🙂 I’m just surprised that it isn’t that common. I can’t think of a single person that I know to be not aware of what “kohlrabi” is. 🤷🏼♀️
@@jitkadvorakova8136 I mean to be fair, the guy lives in America 😅 they're not keen on eating many vegetables haha.
I think it's common throughout all of europe
"kalarepa" in Polish
1. It's funny, I like Kohlrabi, but I've never actively sought it out in my adulthood and somehow stopped eating it. Whenever I happen to get it as a side in a restaurant, it's super nostalgic. It literally tastes like childhood to me.
2. The windows are awesome, but if you have a cat or smaller children it's good to additionally secure them, because smaller creatures (cats, toddlers) can actually get wedged in.
3. I've seen double-decker trains in California as well.
4. This is something I really miss since moving abroad. I am so used to getting a full gynac checkup every year, and it's really weird to me that in the country where I live now you actively have to ask a gynac to check for breast or cervical cancer or infections. They will all ask 'Why, do you have any symptoms?' To which I will say 'Well, if we're going to wait if I have symptoms, won't it be a bit late and decrease my chances for successful treatment?' to which they always have to agree. Prevention is so much better, than waiting till something actually spread to a point where it's noticable.
5. I'm not driving, so I wouldn't know XD
6. You're actually correct, some people use 'Sitzpinkler' as an insult, much like 'Warmduscher' (someone who only takes warm showers). In my household we have two bathrooms, one I use almost exclusively, and one my husband uses. He does not sit down, that's why cleaning duty for his bathroom falls on him. He's not 5, I'm not his mom, I'm not going to clean up his pee dribbles after him. That's my stance on it. If you're a guest somewhere and you see a sign like that, sit or make sure to clean up very well after yourself. It's just common decency not to make your host clean up your pee.
7. yes, 15 minutes in it's just a vanilla ice cream glob, but kids love it. it's just a bit of fun for them.
Yes, I remember that, too, as something mainly my grandmother used to prepare. In white sauce, too, so everything white and mild tasting. No spices, please. (Grandmother generation: salt, pepper, savory, lovage, bay leaves. Under no circumstances GARLIC!!! 😳)
I also love spaghetti ice cream and I'm not a child, it's just the way the portions are, with whipped cream in the middle of the spaghetti ice cream
@@Luca-hb5xs i'm all for adults having fun foods! and yes, spaghetti ice cream hits different.
Kohlrabi with a white sauce is fantastic, one of my favorite side dishes. I can even stand it raw, with a yoghurt dip (together with carrots/peppers/cucumbers) as a healthy snack - but cooked it is MUCH better.
@@freibier I love it the other way around. Can't stand it warm / cooked, but raw it's fantastic. A salad with kohlrabi, almond chips / sticks, carrot stripes and a yoghurt / lemon dressing is my absolute favorite!
I live in NYC and I bought Kohlrabi over FreshDirect food delivery service. I was so happy that I found it. My mom back in Germany made always Kohlrabi soup. When she peeled it, she always cut up some pieces for us kids to eat raw and it tasted so good. Finding the Kohlrabi here where I live now is so awsome and it brought back such good childhood memories!
Kohlrabi is really good. One of the best tasting vegetables for me. Propably the best one when eating it raw. Btw. you cut of the leafs and eat the big round one thing.
You dont use winter tires during summer because the mixture or the tires are different. It would wear out way faster at warm temperatures and get rid of the profile fast. You typically want that winter tyres in colder areas with mountains. In some low level elevated cities we usually use all season tires as well. But notice, if you wanna go to Austria or other alpine regions you need to wear winter tires or at least all season tires with a special alpine snow symbol.
The consumption is also a point. If you drive with winter tires and sommer tires and your car shows your consumption, you know why you dont want to use winter tires in the sommer
i like it more if its cooked as a soup raw it isnt my type :)
@@xDasMottex with Pasta 😍
No offense to kohlrabi but it is rather mild tasting, almost neutral tasting, is it not? Even compared to vegetables such as broccoli.
@@Fidi987 what?
So, if you're wondering why spaghetti ice cream is so awesome: There's a dollop of whipped cream under the ice. This also freezes on the 'noodles' due to the coldness of the ice and thus has its very own crunch.
The spaghetti shape is therefore the ideal solution to get the ice cream seamlessly around the cream.
Hi, a czech here. We call the first thing kedluben or kedlubna, I love it raw and cut up as a snack, but you can use it in potato dishes too.
Our windows are the same mechanism and only old buildings with their original windows still installed (like the apartment I'm staying at rn) have windows that only open one way
Here we actually have laws in place to not drive a car with the wrong tires, you can get fined if you do
The peeing thing is definitely a german thing- certain places ask you to sit down for reasons of cleanliness. And the term sitzpinkler is used as an insult.
My childhood favorite sundae was in fact ice cream spaghetti! Vanilla ice cream, strawberry topping syrup. Although I knew of only one café in my home town they made that sundae
My brother preferred their Pinocchio sundae, with a cone as a hat and a wafer tube for a nose. It also used blue smarties (the chocolate sugar coated variety) as eyes!
Ha a German me is here now-
Another example of "everything around us also exists in some way in germany" we have here?
A point on the tires: There are all-weather-tires (Allwetterreifen), which you don't need to change per season.
Besides the already mentioned grip issues, there is actually a law which makes winter tires mandatory - or the all-weather-variant. Those tires have a symbol on it if they are "capable of snowy contitions". When you get stopped in the middle of winter without such tires, you'll have to pay a fine (even if only 60,-€ minimum). And besides that, if you have an accident, insurers (and courts) will see you as partly in fault at least.
Sit-peeing for boys and men - absolutely. And yes those signs are definitely a thing. It's cleaner and more respectful.
I work in a daycare/Kindergarten and all the children have to sit down to pee.
My son doesn't even know, peeing while standing is a thing. When outside he still crouches down.
There's a chance you can get kohlrabi in the US at some places. It has become a bit of a trend vegetable in the US in recent years, at least at fancy restaurant and for foodies, often referred to as the "alien vegetable". In Germany in contrast it's very common and rather viewed as something old-fashioned that you know from your grandmother. Most people mainly eat the root (cut in sticks, cubes or slices), even though the leaves can be used as well. Most commonly the root is cooked and served in a white sauce based on a white roux (or cream). Kohlrabi has a rather unique mild cabbage flavor. When eaten raw it can also be a bit tangy. When cooked soft that disappears and it becomes very sweet, similar to carrots. So cooked it's somewhere between cabbage and carrots, while raw it's more between cabbage and radish.
the green jellyfish is really really delicious...it´s a healthy snack...and it´s often for my quick 2nd breakfast before lunchtime...especially in summer...when i need something fresh
i prefer it uncooked, like alomost every vegetable
1. Kohlrabi is great. You eat the round part at the bottom, but you have to peel it first. You can eat it raw, but is a bit of an aquired taste, but the more common way to eat them is to cook them and eat them with ham and potatoes. When you said "uncooked fries" that's actually some cooked Kohlrabi sticks. (Great now I'm hungry for Kohlrabi)
2. I'm in for a video on the doppeldecker trains, It's a really neat design
3. I once forgot to switch from winter to summer tires and drove all summer on the winter tires and afterwards they were so worn down I had to get new ones. Otherwise they would have lasted for a few more years, so they really don't like the hot weather.
4. Spaghetti Ice: It does not immediately melt, but it doesn't take long. On the other hand, how long are you gonna let it sit there? So it works usually pretty. The most divisive part about it, is the frozen whipped cream at the bottom, for me it's the best part, other people complain.
Here is a video of an Austrian double decker train: ruclips.net/video/neq6TUoVAtk/видео.html
5:18: winter tires are actually worse in almost all regards if used on dry roads or in the summer (softer rubber -> more wear, lower speedlimit, worse breaking performance, noisier). But there are all-season tires which are (imo) sufficient for 95% of the year, depending on where you live. Another problem with having separate tires is that winter tires will get brittle and thus lose a lot of performance when stored wrong (too cold and/or sun exposure) or aren't used enough. But the whole all-season vs summer/winter tires is a endless debate in germany
I live in Voralpen Land in Southern Bavaria so i prefer to have winter tires especially because the individual tires last longer that way
My local ice cream parlor serves spaghettieis made from dark chocolate ice cream and raspberry sauce. It's a treat and I love it. They serve it on a bed of frozen whipped cream to keep it from melting. They don't have dark chocolate very often but when they do, it sells like hotcakes.
Where can I find this shop? It sounds heavenly.
That was fun to watch. I wasn't aware of that "Kohlrabi" aka green jellyfish isn't a thing everywhere :D
Please check out the shorts from Calvin & Habs and their take on the differences between Americans and Germans. The Playlist with the most popular shorts should be fine. It's something around 12 minutes.
The word Sitzpinkler is really liked to be used as an insult and is not really a normal term. Like the word „Schattenparker“ (one, who only parks his car in the shadow, so it will not get hot in summer) or „Warmduscher“ ( one, that only can stand showering with warm water). All are synonyms for a sissy.
And the prohibition signs have no legal effect. They rather say that if you don't follow the rule and something goes wrong, you can be sure of the wrath of the person who has to clean it up.
LOL-exactly!🤣😂🤣

Winter tires are made of softer rubber that hardens in the winter cold for optimal grip while also not damaging the tire. In Summer the heat would make the rubber even more soft, heavily increasing the contact surface between road and tire and through that increasing not only fuel consumption but the tires will be wrecked way faster.
it is a Kohlrabi, a member of the cabbage family, like Brussel Sprouts, Broccoli (it tastes like broccoli stems), and Cauliflower
it is awesome, either raw or stewed
my grandfather grew them in his garden, both the green and the purple variants
you can usually find them at Whole Foods, International Market, and even Publix
and you peel the stem, the leaves are edible as well, tastes like Kale, another member of the cabbage family
oh oh i just remembered something! if you want to try out German snacks/sweets, you should definitely look for some "Brause" stuff - i honestly can't even give you a good definition of what Brause is, but think of like, some sour powder with flavors like raspberry, lemon, orange or Waldmeister - there's Brause powder to put in water, Brause sticks, hard candy or just powder you can eat as is and there's even Brause ice cream/popsicles! Idk if other countries have something like this, but it's definitely a staple here
I was active in postcrossing once. There was a section where you could ask for certain (cheaper) items from other countries and have others sent to you. For example, KitKat varieties from Japan. From Germany, Milka chocolate was a big hit.
@@Fidi987 ohh yeah we have so many different Milka bars here, endless flavors for normal sized bars, huge bars, everything
....hehe... einfach roh brausepuler in den Mund kippen... wer kennts nicht...
@@Fidi987 omg don't make mf go to the bext supermarket spending all my money on Milka chocolate dude- I need to save my money-
My great-grandma makes the best Kohlrabi soup, I actually just got to eat it again the other day. Also, if you want to eat it raw, you have to do it immediately because they become bitter extremely fast. They'd still be eatable, but don't taste good anymore then.
The winter tires are wasted during the summer, you ruin all the grip faster and you use more gas to move your car with the winter tires on summer.
the teardown of the winter tires and lack of grip while its raining in the summer are one of the reasons to change it. in the winter you have to put on winter tires by law. (or of course use all season tires)
I think it is also the "Hardness" of the rubber. The winter tire is softer cause you dont have blazing hot roads like in the summer thus the summer tire is actually harder.
And you can use all season tires. To use winter tires in summer or vice versa the insurance can denie payment if youre in an accident while using the wrong tires. And you can get extra fined should it happen.
"Sitzpinkler sounds like an insult to me"
Yes it is, it implicates that you doing it because of your wife / girlfriend and you don't have the courage to stand up to her.
It is true that many men will sit down, it is a seat after all and not an urinal.
When I was a teenager, my father had to change the toilet seat.
After doing this he came to me and said: "We will sit down for peeing now"
It dows not matter how often you clean. There will always be parts you can't reach.
And it is less cleaing when you sit.
To be fair, it isn't used as much these days (at least from what I can tell). It used to be quite common maybe about 2 decades ago, when nobody saw anything wrong with seeing "girlish" behaviour as weak and with expecting men to act "tough". Some isults that use the same reasoning would be Warmduscher (someone who showers with warm water) and Schattenparker (someone who parks their car in the shade). (Just throwing these in for everyone's amusement.)
@@andreasforster3614 I've never even heard Schattenparker, but that's the most sensible thing to do... Unless you obsessively avoid bird poop and prefer to die of heat in the sunny car.
@@viomouse Well, it follows the "logic" of "if you were a tough guy, you'd just endure the heat" 😂
I agree!!!
Sitzpinkler, warmduscher, schattenparker....are an insult and like a synonym for very weak man under the commando of his wife! In some occasions it is also a synonym even for homosexuel man!
A real strong hetero man has to stand while peeing, has to love cold showers, has to ignore to climb in his hot car!
How ridiculos is all that!
The signs for sitting while peeing for man I just know in private homes, everyone knowes how the wc looks and smells after having a party at home......!
Peeing in public restrooms is a complete different situation, bc, my personal opinion, nobody want's to come in contact with ceramics not knowing who used it before and when it was cleaned the last time...:-(
I know some man, nearly machos, who says: sitting while peeing at home does not take my manliness away:-)
Look for cabbage turnip or stem turnip if you'd like to try Kohlrabi. I prefer to eat them raw because they tend to get a light sweetness when cooked (like carrots do). Buy them fresh an don't let them lie around for too long the tend to get dry and woody.
Kohlrabi is something I had never seen nor heard of until I got here :) It is a useful vegetable. Goes great in stews or stir fries. There are double decker trains in Vancouver and safe bet in major American cities.
I am a big fan of all season tires but my wife insists on Summer and Winter tire changes. I remember before all seasons existed, though so, eh...
Never seen a no standing sign like that anywhere here.
Spaghetti Eis is great, but when we have had it here, each serving could serve at least two.... lol a LOT of ice cream
i love your channel, found it 2 days ago. i love your reactions to germany. it´s just exactly like my us relatives react when they visit us. :D come visit europe, you will love it.
same rule here in Italy: winter tires are mandatory from nov. 15th to (I think) April 15th. And double decker trains are also common here. (so, should you ever come to Italy, you are ready for this too, not only Germany!)😁
One place i worked at our receptionist was so _terrified_ of men peeing standing up that she plastered the bathroom with these signs! At least four or five of them by the end...it felt like they were multiplying during the night.
There is a big difference between winter and somer tires. not only is it the profile, but the rubber, that the tire is made out of is different (softer or harder depending on the season). Overall they do have different attributes especially made for their particular season. In Germany it is a law to change to winter tires (or all season tires with a snow symbol on them). If you having an accident in the winter and you do not have winter tires (even if there's no snow), you can get fined.
About the toilet: the toilet in the video is in fact a somewhat old model. Most of modern toilets are mounted to the wall with the water box inside the wall, so you only have a trigger on the wall.
The part in which he wants to get hands on a Kohlrabi is hilarious 🤣
It doesn't taste delicious or something it's nothing too crazy
[5:30] Winter tires have a different rubber compound than summer tires. In winter, this is softer, since the summer tire compound "does not work" at temperatures above 7°C, as it is harder. And that's why summer tires are too hard in winter, so they have much less grip. There is also a fine if you get caught!
Hallo to the US and thank you for these really entertaining videos! I keep my fingers crossed for you visiting Germany one day 🤞. There is a really strange thing in Germany (even many Germans don't know it), but this kitchen device can only exist in Germany. For sure, no other people would use it. I'm talking about the Eierschalensollbruchstellenverursacher. 🤣😂!!! When you are peeling an egg, with this device you have a clean, straight edge of the eggshell. Off course, nobody needs it, but there must be people who buy this.
Greetings from Schleswig-Holstein!
Nice idea bout the P. O Box, so your fans could send you German Snacks for you and your family to try.
just to mention on Spaghetti-Eis: first put some cream (Sahne) in the middle, then the vanilla ice cream on top, then the sauce and white chocolate. When served, the "Sahne" freezes particulary. Real good.
Also it can be made on request using haselnut ice cream (my favor)
Winter tires have speed limits and they wear out quickly when it is hot and dry. Mine say 180 km/h(110 mph). So you put on the summer tires to cruise on the Autobahn at 220 (142mph) or faster for some cars.
Summer tires also have more grip in dry corners and less friction. So they use less fuel. They are also more quiet. Better for longer trips.
And dedicated winter tires are better when it is cold than all season tires.
They are just safer when it is wet and cold. So yes people in the south tend to change wheels.
Also costs: When you drive them O to O like in the video you wear them down slower.
the rubber-mixture on winter tires is softer and they make a strong noise when you go faster in the summer, because of the different rubber. they also wear faster in summer month.
The best part for me and essential for a great spaghetti ice cream is the whipped cream that is put underneath the vanilla ice cream noodles. Because it starts to freeze and tastes delicious :)
You don't use winter tires in the summer, because they are made of a different kind of rubber that has less grip at high temps.
Winter tires have a softer rubber mix, so they will degrade quick at warm temperatures. Spaghetti ice becomes very cold because of the bigger surface. It freezes also the whipped cream below it, that is the best part of it.😋
If you use winter tires in the summer the heated up road will wear down the small details that give the tires the necessary friction on icy winter roads really fast, meaning they likely won't be save to use the following winter anymore
by switching tires twice a year you can use the same set pairs of summer and winter tires for several years before they get too worn down rather than having to switch them after only 1 to 2 years due to them losing too much grip to be usable for winter
Alternating between winter and summer tires isn't really that much more expensive than just driving all seasons. Both sets will wear and tear at half speed if they're used only for half a year each. You will of course have to shell out more money up front for two sets of tires and four extra rims (if you don't want to swap the tires on the rims every 6 months - though I hear some people even do that).
If you really don't drive that much in a year, the all seasons look like the better option, since the rubber will slowly lose it's grip and harden after several years.
You have kohlrabi in the us. winter tires consist of a different rubber compound and are softer in the cold, so they also have more grip.
Kohlrabi is just another breed of the common cabbage (Brassica oleracea), like broccoli, Brussels sprouts or cauliflower, and it tastes not much differently. Kohlrabi has an enlarged stem (which is the round part), while other types focus more on the leaves (white cabbage) or the flower heads (broccoli and cauliflower). If you have ever eaten the raw stem of a cauliflower, you have a pretty good idea how Kohlrabi tastes, albeit the Kohlrabi is bred to be more tender.
Many Canadians change to winter tires, but I’ve driven in Northern Alberta for 35 years and I either have summer or all season tires.
Another disadvantage of winter tyres (and all weather tyres) in summer, the braking distance is longer. To slow down from 100 to 0km/h takes 35m (or less) with a good summer tyre. With a winter tyre in summer the braking distance will be between 5 and 15!m longer. If you only damage your car a little bit, the repair costs will definitely be higher tahn the costs of four additional tyres and rims.
The bathroom in the video of the lady is very old fashioned. In newer bathrooms the cystern is hidden in the wall. (and no ugly green tiles)
5:24 : Because winter tyres are wearing off too fast because of the softer rubber mixture. and some claim that they have a longer brakeway. But many people also don`t like the hassle and hit the year with all year tires, which are a compromise of both.
As for Kohlrabi, try Indian or Arabic shops. When I lived in London, I lived in a predominantly indian/Pakistani neighbourhood and their vegetable shops had them in stock most of the time. Its delicious, try them if you have the chance.
Yes. There is few snow in most Regions of Germany. But when there is just a flake (or often: just a little bit of ice) many streets and highways are blocked by trucks having no winter tires.
Summer tiers are harder because in the heat they get soft and get their grip back from that. Winter tires are on the other hand really soft because the cold makes them firm and they get the desired grip.
Concerning the tires: Not only the profile is different between summer and winter, it's also the mix that goes into the rubber. Summer tires become pretty hard below freezing point, so they have less grip on the asphalt, and that leads to an elongated braking distance. Winter tires on the other hand stay on the softer side below freezing. To make sure they don't disintegrate while driving, winter tires are usually limited to speeds up to 180 km/h (112 m/h), while there is no such limit for summer tires.
Winter tires have a softer rubber which will wear down quickly in the summer. All season tires are a thing, but uncommon.
Spaghetti ice cream is out of this world. Greetings from Germany
1:34 you can eat the whole plant. Normally, the root knoll is eaten, but the leaves are a very good side dish or, if ground, give the sauce a nice texture and taste.
Spaghetti ice cream doesn't melt faster than any other ice cream, so it won't just turn into a soup two minutes after you buy it :P
There are many Italian immigrants in Germany. Especially from the poor north of Italy.
(Through the south Alps there is little sun in the valleys, which makes agriculture and animal husbandry very difficult).
Already 100 years ago and also in the 1950s these Italians came to Germany in search of work. Some opened ice cream parlors and became very successful at it. Handmade Italian ice cream is at least twice as heavy and richer than industrially produced ice cream. Real fruit and cream are used for this. A new fresh ice cream mixture prepared daily. Ice cream parlors can be found all over Germany and are popular with Germans.
Since Italians also like to eat noodles, it is not surprising that they make noodles from ice cream.
Germans also like to travel to warm Italy to the beach for vacation.
For the Alps, the sunny northern Alps are also very beautiful (Swiss and Austria).
You don't use winter tires in summer because they are also made of softer and more flexible rubber. The profile degrades more rapidly wenn you use them on dry roads or when they get too hot.
It's not only the adapting profile of winter tires. The used rubber (?) itself is different and stays soft even with cold temperatures, but you must not drive very fast with them (if I remember this correctly). Therefore it doesn't make much sense to use them in summer.
There are no stupid questions! Every time I see you, I think "please come to Germany" You definitive have a P O Box.
Kohlrabi is one of my favorite veggies, especially the violet one. It is "koolrabi" in Dutch, so almost the same. Maybe you cannot get it in the US, but you could definitely buy the seeds and grow it, if you have a garden.
You can get Kohlrabi here in Ottawa Canada.
in germany we also have all season tires, its your choice what you choose
you dont use winter tyres in the summer because they need more energy to be pushed, also known as use more fuel, which is why the idea of an all season tyre is very weird, u use more feul all year and you dont have the full benefit of a witner tyre either
spaghetti ice cream is fucking delicious i will have you know . .
it is basically whipped cream with a bit of ce cream and white chocolate and strawberry sauce that just looks like spaghetti.
Hey, you should react to the “Wuppertaler Schwebebahn” this is amazing and it will blow your mind. I’m excited for your reaction 😄👍
Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪👋
I did use winter tires in the summer. But only once, after the summer they were finished. The rubber is much softer and gets erased.
Winter tires don't handle or perform as well at higher temperatures. They also wear much quicker.
kohlrabi is a staple of german childhood. we used to eat it in sticks on train rides ect and it was my favorite snack
Winter tyres use softer rubber compound that wears horribly quickly in hot weather and significantly faster in above near zero (°C) conditions.
Winter tires are made of softer rubber to give them more grip in cold temperatures. On hot asphalt in summer, the rubber is so soft that it has less grip and it increases fuel consumption.
You could use winter tires in summer but they’re expensive and all those details to get grip on snow would wear down fast on hot and dry summer roads.
6:43 this is an old fashion WC version. Modern WCs in Germany have their water reservoir unvisible integrated in the wall. And the toilet bowl is mounted to the wall itself, so cleaning of the restroom floor is easy.
Winter tires are usually also made of a different, softer material-mix so they stay more flexible at sub-zero (°C) temperatures.
Driven in summer at certain higher degrees, you would most likely ruin them inside a few weeks. Then ofc. all year tires aren't uncommon here as well.
5:13 In addition, the rubber in winter tires is softer, so that it still has more grip in cold temperatures.
🤣😂🤣--Another point on the bucketlist should be the German Sauna-Thing-Just watch Rachel's posting on this!
Winter tires mostly have 210 Kph speedlimit, summer mostly 240 kph and above. You can get higher grade ones but they are very costly.
in our region is it set by law to change to winter tires because there is a lot of snow in Schwarzwald :D
The Tire Question has an easy answer actually.
Winter Tires are much softer, so they don´t get too stiff when it´s too cold, and can maintain a certain grip.
In the Summer, those tires would become TOO soft and you´d lose control much easier, also they are very much NOT made for rain but especially for snow, while Sumemr tires are made to do well with liquid water.
ALso the Softness of the tires would mean you´d have to buy two sets of tires to actually drive during the warmer seasons, because they wear off VERY fast, depending on your driving style and how much and how far you drive it could be 3-4 sets of tires even. Also the way your car drives changes with softer/harder tires quite a bit, a little like when not having enough air in them or too much.
Some American Supermarkets have Kohlrabi; I found it at Publix. The taste & texture is similar to turnip, a little less bitter. You would take off the leaves (can be made into salad) and peel like a potato, then cut up and cook. You can eat raw as well, which will -hmm- speed up your digestion 😋
The thing with winter tires in summer is the grip adition which is needed in winter weares off faster in summer. so if you drive your wintertires in summer they might be "broken" after one year. if you change them, you might be able to use them at least 2 winter seasons. if not 3 or 4.
The rubber of winter tires is also softer to deliver more traction on cold roads, but in summer on hot roads it would become too soft, so you will actually lose traction and the tire wear is also much greater.
i always enjoy you vids...keep continuing...😊✌...buddy...
on the tires: its not (only) about the profile but the mixture of the gum used to make it.
Changing the tires is mandatory here in Austria. If you drive with your summer tires in winter you can get a fine up to 5.000.
5.23 you can use your winter tyres in the summer. But it’s a lot noisier, you can’t drive extremely fast, and the tyres get worn down really fast. You also need more gas when driving
And also some use winter tires all year but because they have a pretty soft mixture so they tend to use of faster and you can’t go as fast with winter tires
Heh, Deutsche Welle is situated in my town (Bonn), which is why I recognise all the places in those videos: the scene with the window is from the Altstadt (old town) famous for its cherry blossoms in spring (which were actually a gift from the Japanese government).
Wintertires are softer - in summer (with high temperatures) the tires would wear out fast, so you have to change it to summertires with harder rubber.
Spaghetti ice cream is so good. You can have it with fresh strawberry pieces
It makes absolutely no sense to send you any FRESH food like Preztels. They ONLY taste great, if they are made at the same day...
You will be disappointed...
I agree. This is especially true for baked goods. Those are definitely best when they are still warm. Seems like the best way to experience authentic German food is to actually travel to Germany.
winter tires have an other rubber mixture and therefor have a higher wear in warm temperatures. But you are allowed to use them in summertime. Not allowed are summer tires in Wintertime. The rubber mixture makes the tires too stiff and you loose grip.
Plus the special profile for wintertires you see in the video is very helpful on snow.
It's not only the grippyness of the winter tires. Summer tires have a rubber mix that has it's best quality at warm temperatures - not too hard, not too soft, perfect grip and shortest way to bring the car to a hold. Below around 7 degrees celsius these capabilities get lost because the rubber gets too hard. Same for winter tires: Best capabilities in cold weather, but worse in hot temperatures. The difference is staggering, as tests can show - so much, that German insurance companies won't pay in case of an accident with the wrong tires. "All-weather tires" are just a bad compromise.
