Es ist super einfach zuzubereiten, wir haben Würstchen und essen seit langem Schweinefleisch, viele unserer Leute sind ausgewandert und haben in Deutschland Urlaub gemacht, es ist also nicht so, dass wir nichts davon gewusst hätten. Wir geben sogar gerne Currysauce auf unsere Chips. Wenn wir also alle Bestandteile hatten, warum wurde Currywurst hier nicht populär?
Es wird über diese brennende Frage von nationaler Bedeutung nachgedacht.

That’s an easy one. Currywurst isn’t nice.
That’s like asking why there’s no UHT milk
Because it’s fucking bouncing.
Clean stinkin that’s why
Probably because weren’t forced to divide the country between the US and Russian cuisine.
Because it’s shite.
I feel like a 3in1 is basically the Irish equivalent.
Currywurst is class but we have basically no import of German culture in Ireland
Because a batter sausage with curry sauce is nicer and more culturally known.
It’s absolute gorgeous, it is a shame that we don’t have in Ireland. I just eat that when I go to Berlin.
They isn’t really a culture of German style sausage in Ireland, and mixing curry powder with ketchup doesn’t feel like it can compete with a spice bag.
Fantastic stuff. Place called curry factory in Wiesbaden if you’re ever there , they do a great one.
Because it tastes bad.
Because we never forget what the Germans did

Get this and put it on your chips. Thank me later
I mean it’s alright but it’s not the BEST thing ever haha.. curry chip or something do me grand
Because it’s the worst
I feel like the German version of generic chipper curry is sweeter than what you get here. It’s lovely though.
The curry ketchup you get over there is pretty decent too.
Currywurst is lovely but I always laugh when food travels to new cultures.
You always get half of the people delighted that their country’s food is popular and the other half who are furious that foreigners are making a mess of it by changing literally anything about how its made.
I love German food, beer, football, women, you name it. Top country. But currywurst is shite.
Who could say no to curried sausage
I’m actually concerned about where we are heading as a nation and society with the amount of people saying that they don’t like it 😞
I can tell you now.
I live in Berlin, and when my parents came to visit i took them to the best Currywurst place in the city (CurryBaude at Gesundbrunnen train station, I am not even going to TALK about Curry 36.)
My dad, who lives for chips and sausages and would order chips with every single meal if he could get away with it, hated it.
There was „stuff“ in them sausages (read: slightly seasoned) and there was also „stuff“ in the ketchup (read: curry ketchup.)
So, my humble opinion is that it is too Out There for the Irish palates of the 1960s/1970s, and so never came into national prominence.
Love a currywurst. Make it a couple of times a month. Probably it’s not too popular cause there’s little export of German culture or cuisine to Ireland (outside of the doner, but even then the doner here it very different -inferior- o the German doner).
Because the Danollas and Caffolas families are from Casalattico in southern Italy, and not say… Berlin.
It’s keek
Put curry on your sausage and chips if you want, lad, no-one’s stopping you.
I like it but definitely the most inconsistent street food I’ve had. Sometimes the sauce has a decent flavour kick, sometimes it’s essentially Chef ketchup.
Time to go on a quest to the chipper, and swing by the Chinese on the way back.
It’s awful
Currywurst is nice but it never blew my mind. I’d prefer the Turkish style quick food in Berlin personally.
A) Germans use a different sausage and B) possibly too much of a British/German collaboration?
Don’t get me wrong, I think it’s amazing, but I can see why these things would stand in the way
…..because we are an excolony of a place that had India as a colony in the past also, curries have been around longer than you’d think and a variety of them. This could come across as a bit plain (no offence).
We don’t like it. .
I used to work in a German sausage factory. It was the würst.
Food like this opens in Ireland and not one Irish soul go to eat. So they close. Thats why! Anyone can reply to me and say otherwise but you will be a very small minority and probably wouldn’t travel to these restaurants. One in dublin i know makes fresh foods… All baltic dishes and such (menu isnt big but covers plenty of the big time dishes and national dishes). Visited plenty of times there, not ever did i hear any irish sitting down. Everybody would be speaking various eastern eu languages seating isnt cramped up like majority of restaurants you see about, hence its pretty easy to hear the spoken languages. This restaurant keeps surviving because all foreigners go there when in, around, or nearby dublin. Same thing with Polonez, Moldova, Smak grocery shops…. I have seen a handful of irish in them over the last decade or so, granted they were very amazed at the stock availability and choices and flavor of things.
The curry’s not great in Germany. With currywurst, it’s just ketchup mixed with curry powder and the quality… varies, shall we say.
Our local chipper does a battered sausage tray, that’s basically chips, curry sauce and chopped up battered sausage. Really tasty for an occasional treat.
It’ll come (it better!).
We’re only starting to get doner kebab you can enjoy sober (Chiya, Reyna and Passion4food has been life-changing/shortening), give us a chance!
It’s the avoidance of pretty much any seasoning, everything needs to be bland. Spiced beef or mild curry is the spiciest you can ever imagine to eat. Irish food is boring food, 7 types of potatoes some beef and that’s it
The batter sausage, and decent regular Irish sausages makes other less appealing. Its the same reason hot dogs are also not that popular
Cos it’s fucking rank
People don’t like it enough to make it regularly
There used to be a German sausage and hot dog place on Camden street beside Palace aka The Camden
I used to go there with friends who were either German or had been there
German and especially Bavarian cuisine is great. It’s relatively simple and doesn’t look appealing but good eating. Currywurst is good but I don’t see any reason why it would be big in Ireland.
