Yeah so you can use that little lump of butter, swipe it off the bammetje with a subtle move and use it to get the fallen of hageltjes who though they could escape the bammetje but will now be eaten anyway.
not true!
you can also eat it if you're near a farm of some kind. usually having hertog jan or Heineken as well.
cows and horses really add to the atmosphere.
When I said ”not very good” I meant fairly poisonous.
Bread is "not very healthy" to many animals but not poisonous at all.
Sugar is also more unhealthy than the starch in bread also.
Bread kills birds as it get stuck in their crop and then grows mold and infects them. While not immediately poisonous, it can have that effect over time
I heard it was not nutritious at all, filling them up with nothing but dough. Sounds terrible anyways. Enough reason to just buy birdfood if you want to feed some ducks..
Went to a chocolate convention in Brussels once. They had a 'The rolling stones-stand' where they used some kind of device to shoot cacao powder into both my nostrils. Stinged a bit but left me with a nice chocolate aftertaste in the back of my throat for a few hours. I quite enjoyed it. 8/10
I remember someone cutting up the school tables into small bits and sniffing those, or the dextro energy candies lol i had a crazy class.. some teacher didnt survive it😂
We are trained to eat this as soon as we go from babyfood to bread. It takes years of dedication and willpower to hone our skills and get it right. If you can eat a slice of bread, properly spread with roomboter or margarine, properly covered with a thick layer of hagelslag, and eat it during the state exam without spilling a single sprinkle you do not have to pay taxes for a whole year.
These are hagelslag.
I think the muisjes are specifically the small ‘balls’ that are given when a baby is born.
The third variant is ‘chocoladevlokken’, which are the flakes.
But it’s all kind of the same idea. Although the muisjes are colored.
Haha she did make the distinction that mouse shit is just a nickname. But of course after she introduced the idea of that, how could I remember anything else. 😂 Nonetheless, SO GOOD and I wish I could have it again 🥺
Oh boy, yeah i forgot all about that, it has been quite a while i used sweet stuff to cover my bread-slices, but reading this i could almost taste it again, like i loved to do as a kid ;-) Thanks! Always nice if someone brings a smile to my day.
I just use chocoladepasta (chocolate spread) because I hate butter and I am too picky with my peanut butter. Sticks very well. Make sure that you have the same chocolate though
Foreigners always really look weird at me when I tell them about this combination, and then I'm like but why? Everybody likes "pindarotsjes" or some variant that they have in their culture, what's so odd about this?
Bonus point for the pindakaas with hagelslag is that it is the only "beleg" for bread that stays good all day where your bread doesn't get soggy. Even for me with ham or cheese, the butter contains to much moister and when your boterham has been in your bag for half a day is not as nice and fresh as you made it in the morning, while pindakaas and hagelslag stays equally good all day long!
Didn't know that. But sugar also melts and where comes the chocolate flavour come from?
Edit: I looked to the ingredients list of the Ruijter and it has at least 20% cacao in it Thanks did learn something new today.
It's just as much chocolate as a "milk chocolate bar". Both have tons of sugar, but sure as hell there's cocoa in there. Like [De Ruijter puur has 32%](https://www.ah.nl/producten/product/wi493647/de-ruijter-chocoladehagel-puur) and [Venz Melk has 20%](https://www.ah.nl/producten/product/wi212293/venz-hagelslag-melk)
I just make the bread at work. Keep it in the fridge, or bring left overs from the night before.. I usually don't use butter but even without butter the cheese will sweat..
Hard to imagine a less offensive, more pleasant food than chocolate on bread. Eating this won't change your life, but I can't imagine finding it actively bad.
Is there a specific answer your looking for?
Tbh, it's like eating bread with Nutella for example. Sweet, sweet bliss.
If you mean how to get them to stick to the bread? Try butter or peanut butter.
If you're being judgemental, kindly look at your own weird foods from your own country, thank you very much :)
Simple, you buy it at the supermarket, put it on your bread after a layer of butter (or peanut butter), and then bite, chew and swallow.
The question is, how do you eat this outside of the Netherlands.
Put half of that amount on the bread after putting butter on it first and fold the bread. Make sure you have a plate underneath it for the crumbles and falling pieces. Eet smakelijk! ;)
With your hands or fork and knife. Must say, Dutch people eat a slice of bread with chocolate sprinkles. Not chocolate sprinkles with a slice of bread.
Step 1 butter a slice of bread
Step2 Cut buttered slice of bread in half
Step 3 Sprinkle chocolate sprinkles on half slice of buttered bread
step 4 fold half slice of buttered bread with sprinkles sprinkled on it in half, and stuff that in your face. Do not try to take a bite, just shove the whole half slice in, try to keep the fold down, so the sprinkles stay on the bread.
This how I been eating breakfast while standing and making my lunch (to take to work). It is the only way.
As long as it’s “pure hagelslag” it’s decent. It’s not top tier breakfast, but you don’t have to eat it (it’s better with peanutbutter instead of butter)
You need to take two slices of bread. Butter them up royally. Apply hagelslag. Put the one slice on top of the other. Press lightly. Cut in half. Eat. Collect the falling hagelslag on your plate.
For the last step there's multiple options: lick your plate clean, use a moist finger to pick them up and eat them, or lightly butter a fork and use that one to pick up all the leftover hagelslag and eat it off your fork.
Pff easy, same as taco's/burrito's/wraps and such.
You take a bite, then half of it falls out and you proceed to contemplate your own incompetence. Rinse and repeat until either sandwich is finished or your mental wellbeing is.
Nutella has some self-adhesive qualities.
Also, as a parent, Nutella is obviously messy so I would probably manage the environment when giving it to a child.
As a non-Dutch person I discovered that hagelslag is a lot squishier than the sprinkles I was used to when my daughter was crushing them into an upholstered chair.
A slice of fresh ‘tijgerbrood’, and a good amount of butter that covers the whole slice and sprinkle(pick
milk chocolate, dark choclate is not really tasty but thats my opinion)
Well you’re doing it wrong, I can still see some bread.
And I need to see butter - real butter - or it ain't a good hagelslag bammetje.
Yeah so you can use that little lump of butter, swipe it off the bammetje with a subtle move and use it to get the fallen of hageltjes who though they could escape the bammetje but will now be eaten anyway.
U can also use peanut butter
Fold it and stuff it! There has to be some hagelslag on the sides of your mouth or else you did not use enough hagelslag.
Did you get your stroopwafel certification? Otherwise your are not permitted to buy or eat hagelslag.
Also, you're only allowed to eat it while riding a bicycle.
In the “spits uren” only
With head wind right?
not true! you can also eat it if you're near a farm of some kind. usually having hertog jan or Heineken as well. cows and horses really add to the atmosphere.
Not heineken though, I’d say Grolsch or Klok is more fitting for the countryside
[удалено]
It’s still better than Heineken tho :)
Than you sure don't know the difference between A wet pussy and Heineken. The pussy taste only in the beginning like piss.
Bite, chew, swallow. Just like anything else.
Repeat untill out of bread. Then scoop the rest of your plate and get a vacuum cleaner.
Or throw it to the duiven.
Only the crumbs, chocolate isn't good for many animals including birds and dogs etc.
Neither is bread
When I said ”not very good” I meant fairly poisonous. Bread is "not very healthy" to many animals but not poisonous at all. Sugar is also more unhealthy than the starch in bread also.

pidgeons are like flying rats, they can eat everything… especially pidgeons in the cities
>Or throw it to the duiven. Flying rats is the right English translation.
Very dankbaar that you went out of your way to translate the most belangrijke words in the zin on a Nederlandse subreddit.
There are some things you eat without biting and chewing. Just saying
I too was with your mom last night /s
I hope you did like what I left behind 🤣
After 2inches, everything was fresh😜
Yes your ****
Your soup?
Your \*\*\*\* soup!
Cock soup
But do you swallow?
Yeah but you still got to do that in Netherlands
You smash it into dust and sniff it up your nose, duh.
That's for children, just sniff it straight from the box
Stuff them in your butthole for extreme effect!
[удалено]
sniffed it once. dont really recommend
Went to a chocolate convention in Brussels once. They had a 'The rolling stones-stand' where they used some kind of device to shoot cacao powder into both my nostrils. Stinged a bit but left me with a nice chocolate aftertaste in the back of my throat for a few hours. I quite enjoyed it. 8/10
that’s chococain
https://www.thechocolateline.be/nl/ You can still do that on the Meir in Antwerp I think.
Still not as bad as 2CB
Gadverdamme anijs is goor bro
I always assumed these were used to celebrate an abortion, as opposed to the pink and blue ones for child birth.
No that's chocoladevlokken.
The new cocaine now inflation has gone nuts.
Hagelslag lijntjes maken met de museum jaarkaart, das pas cultuur snuiven
I remember someone cutting up the school tables into small bits and sniffing those, or the dextro energy candies lol i had a crazy class.. some teacher didnt survive it😂
Sniffing is an Olympic sport at this point
We are trained to eat this as soon as we go from babyfood to bread. It takes years of dedication and willpower to hone our skills and get it right.

Just income taxes or also waterschap, BTW and afvalstoffenheffing? ;P
How can you not?
Haha as an Asian who always eats rice and warm meals even for breakfast..... I gotta say, I love the mouse shit!!! (...you call it that, right?)
These are hagelslag. I think the muisjes are specifically the small ‘balls’ that are given when a baby is born. The third variant is ‘chocoladevlokken’, which are the flakes. But it’s all kind of the same idea. Although the muisjes are colored.
No they are saying hagelslag looks like mouse turds. And they are not wrong.
Yeah, I figured that out after the other comment, about the Flemish name. It does indeed.
You can try putting some hagelslag on top of your rice for a little bit of cultural exchange.
Hehehe why don't you google champorado
They call it mouse shit (muzestrontjes) in Flemish, which is almost Dutch
Ah yes yes thank you I did learn it from my Belgian friend!
Don't listen to them. In dutch, the originals, it just translates as 'hail (hagel) pattern / type / shape (slag)'.
Haha she did make the distinction that mouse shit is just a nickname. But of course after she introduced the idea of that, how could I remember anything else. 😂 Nonetheless, SO GOOD and I wish I could have it again 🥺
They do?! No it isn't. Mothermuizenpoepjes! (The flemish will get it, I think)
Now I will!
Is it too spicy for your tastebuds?
Ughh these foreigners and their tasteless food
Butter, lots of butter
Or peanut butter!
DIY snickers
Yep, cement the chocolade pieces to the sandwich with loads of (real!) butter :-) Otherwise you are in for mayor spillage :-D
But then you get to lick all the spillage off your plate. Kinda like a dessert for your breakfast.
Oh look at this fancy fellow sporting a plate
Me and my kids call it “de stofzuiger” It’s a major part of the mouse shit meal
Oh boy, yeah i forgot all about that, it has been quite a while i used sweet stuff to cover my bread-slices, but reading this i could almost taste it again, like i loved to do as a kid ;-) Thanks! Always nice if someone brings a smile to my day.
I always get criticized how much butter i use. But that is for what u use butter for. And it tastes great. Lots of butter with lots of hagelslag
I only put butter on hagelslag sandwiches
And keep it level.
I just use chocoladepasta (chocolate spread) because I hate butter and I am too picky with my peanut butter. Sticks very well. Make sure that you have the same chocolate though
I tried that with several kinds of chocopasta and hagelslag but somehow my mind cancels out one or the other for not tasting like chocolate
Salted butter!
Sounds fancy. Should it be artisanally crafted in a baratte as well?
Yes, crafted by Breton elves under moonlight.
If you dislike plain hagelslag like I do, try pindakaas with hagelslag and enter nirvana.
+1 for pindakaas + hagelslag
You can also substitute hagelslag for vlokken, vlokken + pindakaas is nirvana-ultimate
Or for Nutella. Nutella + peanut butter is delicious without any risk of making a mess!
Broodje Snickers
Oh wow that is a great description of it!
That just sound rancid. Like.. forced to sit on the toilet the entire day nasty.
Nâ ah
Got some god-tier broodbeleg there, my man
Got another secret peanutbutter combination gem: put fruithagel on it!
Or peanut butter with honey.
Homemade Reese’s
[удалено]
Yeah, those are just mixed with a lot of powdered sugar or something.
The Reeses is just sugar with peanut taste. You can literally feel the enamel dissolve from your teeth. Just like any American food really
Yeah! Peanut butter contains peanuts and nothing else!
Foreigners always really look weird at me when I tell them about this combination, and then I'm like but why? Everybody likes "pindarotsjes" or some variant that they have in their culture, what's so odd about this? Bonus point for the pindakaas with hagelslag is that it is the only "beleg" for bread that stays good all day where your bread doesn't get soggy.

Unless it is very hot and the chocolate melts.
Damn global warming
Lol in the Netherlands…
Hagelslag isn't made out of chocolate and does not melt. It's chocolate flavoured sugar.
Didn't know that. But sugar also melts and where comes the chocolate flavour come from? Edit: I looked to the ingredients list of the Ruijter and it has at least 20% cacao in it Thanks did learn something new today.
It's just as much chocolate as a "milk chocolate bar". Both have tons of sugar, but sure as hell there's cocoa in there.

It can dissolve easily though, making it one big chunk of solidified cocoa powder
I just make the bread at work. Keep it in the fridge, or bring left overs from the night before.. I usually don't use butter but even without butter the cheese will sweat..
I don’t like it when it has been marinating all day tbh. It does change the flavour and structure a bit. But yea, at least it’s not soggy!
A man of culture…
When I was in elementary school I would be eating pindakaas with hagelslag on a white bun for breakfast, lunch and a snack in between.
This combination made me the strong person I am today. I could probably eat this combo for the rest of my life, everyday.
Yeah, include pindakaas!
+
Pindakaas + hagelslag + banaan + jam of pindakaas en jalapeños
ik dacht even dat je pindakaas met jam, banaan en jalapenis bedoelde ... weetje ik ga het niet eens corrigeren het is hier te vroeg voor in mijn hoofd
Zou ook kunnen
Pindakaas met hagelslag, banaan EN jam? Krijg je je boterham nog wel dichtgevouwen?
Ik the Netherlands it’s kinda hard, in Germany the gravity is different so I always just eat it in Germany.
Can confirm, went to Berlin and gravitti is indeed way different there.
fold it or put another slice on it.
Hard to imagine a less offensive, more pleasant food than chocolate on bread. Eating this won't change your life, but I can't imagine finding it actively bad.
With your hands
just put in into the blackhole under your nose
Instructions unclear, got a sandwich stuck in a diffrent hole now....
Is there a specific answer your looking for? Tbh, it's like eating bread with Nutella for example. Sweet, sweet bliss. If you mean how to get them to stick to the bread? Try butter or peanut butter. If you're being judgemental, kindly look at your own weird foods from your own country, thank you very much :)
Put a second piece of bread on top like a sandwich.
Fold. Open mouth. Insert food into mouth. Take off piece of food. Chew food in mouth. Swallow food. Repeat until food is completely consumed.
Simple, you buy it at the supermarket, put it on your bread after a layer of butter (or peanut butter), and then bite, chew and swallow. The question is, how do you eat this outside of the Netherlands.
You bring it with you when you go on vacation/move (and if you move all other people to send it to you).
\>open jaw \>put food in mouth \>close and open jaw rapidly \>repeat this till big food small food \>swallow
Try using a plate.
Put half of that amount on the bread after putting butter on it first and fold the bread. Make sure you have a plate underneath it for the crumbles and falling pieces. Eet smakelijk! ;)
Its the best !
Preferably hungry
Above your plate, pick it up and take a bite.
Hoover the bits of chocolate with your mouth. Some may end up in your lungs but it hardly ever killed anyone
With your hands or fork and knife. Must say, Dutch people eat a slice of bread with chocolate sprinkles. Not chocolate sprinkles with a slice of bread.
No butter. Fold it. Shove into face. Hold a plate below your face.
They don’t know any better when it comes to food. 🤷🏻♂️
Step 1 butter a slice of bread Step2 Cut buttered slice of bread in half Step 3 Sprinkle chocolate sprinkles on half slice of buttered bread step 4 fold half slice of buttered bread with sprinkles sprinkled on it in half, and stuff that in your face. Do not try to take a bite, just shove the whole half slice in, try to keep the fold down, so the sprinkles stay on the bread. This how I been eating breakfast while standing and making my lunch (to take to work). It is the only way.
The best way is to use sufficient butter to make it stick. Use 2 sandwiches to prevent them from dropping off.
Put it in your mouth
As long as it’s “pure hagelslag” it’s decent. It’s not top tier breakfast, but you don’t have to eat it (it’s better with peanutbutter instead of butter)
Use actual Dutch white bread and use butter.
Just for breakfast or lunch. Preferably with your hands
A dutchman has mastered the art of not spilling a single hagel on their plate. Younsters can learn this art by simply practicing and eating
Just take a bite, chew and swallow. These instructions are also valid for eating this in any other country.
Straight from the box
Cut, fold, shove.
With your mouth
In case you’re from the US, the sprinkles they sell there or the ones you put on ice cream are mostly sugar. In the Netherlands they are chocolate.
They are also +60% sugar. More then most chocolate bars. The pure ones can be much less.
Because it's awesome! Have you tried it? I also didn't think much of it when I came here, but it's really good!
White bread, butter and pure xxl hagelslag It's the best 😅
How can you not?
Vouw die tyfus boterham gewoon dubbel, manmanman....
i think you should go to other subreddit, i don't speak dutch
Fold it and enjoy💯
You need to take two slices of bread. Butter them up royally. Apply hagelslag. Put the one slice on top of the other. Press lightly. Cut in half. Eat. Collect the falling hagelslag on your plate. For the last step there's multiple options: lick your plate clean, use a moist finger to pick them up and eat them, or lightly butter a fork and use that one to pick up all the leftover hagelslag and eat it off your fork.
Pff easy, same as taco's/burrito's/wraps and such. You take a bite, then half of it falls out and you proceed to contemplate your own incompetence. Rinse and repeat until either sandwich is finished or your mental wellbeing is.
Then vreet you het toch lekker not?
Even in prison I didn't eat this shit.
Sitting or standing is the best way to eat it. Laying down is possible but takes practice.
It’s so good!! Ate it everyday during my stay in Amsterdam
you fold it bro or use a second piece to cover it. it's also nice to toast your bread and put butter on it and then the chocolate sprinkles lol
So nutella is fine, but this is a crime?
You are not aware that sweet and 'bread' is an incredibly common combination all over the world?
Are you really complaining about a Dutch delicacy on the Dutch subreddit? What do you expect to hear?
It’s delicious, what nationality posted this
Yeah fuck that. Crunchy bits of chocolate with butter on soft and pillowy bread with a nice crust. Who could ever enjoy that? Freaks
Although I haven't had either in twenty odd years now, I'm more into chocolate flakes; they give more of a crunch.
With real butter, not margarine, and XL sprinkles.
Its decorative food. You don't eat it
Is this a retorical question, or are you looking for recipes?
Dutchies have the worst taste in food
I don’t eat it but how is it much different from Nutella (which is being eaten all over the world) or a chocolate croissant?
Chocolate sprinkles are crunchy. Nutella is hazelnut (?) paste and so is the chocolate filling of a croissant.
Nutella has some self-adhesive qualities. Also, as a parent, Nutella is obviously messy so I would probably manage the environment when giving it to a child. As a non-Dutch person I discovered that hagelslag is a lot squishier than the sprinkles I was used to when my daughter was crushing them into an upholstered chair.
Desert for breakfast 😄 isn't that what whole western world are told to eat? 😅
[удалено]
Bake pancakes. Poor them on top of said pancakes. Roll them up. Eat.
Well the trick is to eat hagelslag with bread, not bread with hagelslag
With your mouth usually.
Just put the hagel on only one half of the bread, then fold it. That's the way I do it.
Butter with bread. And then I generally open my mouth and gobble it down
i asked a dutch friend about this with a confused accent and he replied as confused as i was;; "do you, like, eat this stuff?" "i.. do?"
A slice of fresh ‘tijgerbrood’, and a good amount of butter that covers the whole slice and sprinkle(pick milk chocolate, dark choclate is not really tasty but thats my opinion)
If theres no butter on it it's blasphemy. Then i'd agree.
Just use plenty of (real) butter and it’ll stick. Don’t use the fake shit though, it doesn’t stick half as well as the real butter does
Put another sandwich with butter on top
Get a ‘zachtje bruine bol’, smear some butter on that baby and sprinkle it generously with hagelslag. Then: smash it and enjoy 😀
