      So the correct text should be “Having a salad named after someone named after you.”

      I just found out the original recipe didn’t have anchovies in it. Some sick fuck came along and said to themselves I wonder if I can hide this fish paste in a salad

        I have never seen anchovies in a Caesar salad. Is it a regional thing?

        Edit: It’s in the dressing, right. My bad.

          It’s normal in the US, Germany, and New Zealand. Elsewhere I can’t say. It is often removed from store bought dressings to make it vegetarian but is in any quality dressing. I would say it’s typical everywhere but can’t say for sure. Also, I was a chef in those places, it’s how it know.

            Anecdotally,

            Having been all over the Midwest, and occasionally to the east coast, I have never once seen anchovies in a salad, and having asked my parents, neither of them have either, and my dad has been all over the world.

            So I’m thinking it’s more regional, or even familial in some places.

    Actually the title was named after Caesar to mean emperor after his death. It was so influential that many languages use this word as well. Famous examples would be Tzar in Russian or Keiser in German.

      Kaiser actually is one of the few German words with ‘ai’ instead of ‘ei’ and reflects basically the Roman pronounciation of Caesar.
      Btw: Pronouncing ‘C’ as ‘ts / z’ instead of ‘k’ has been a Germanic thing already back then.
