This is how the people in Nuremberg eat Bratwurst.

Once again German science proves to be the best in the world.

    Once again German science proves to be the best in the world.

    Once again?

    What else are you referring to?

    Pardon my Spanish but how do you call that in German? I know english has no word for "stuff between normal breads", that's not a sandwich. In Spain we call it "bocata". Do you have a distinct word to differentiate from a sandwich?

    It's a pet peeve of mine, alongside calling everything "salami".

    In English they are called Sub from "submarine sandwich", based on traditional Italian style sandwiches that are the same as Bocatas. That is also where Subway restaurants get their name.

    But yes, the issue is that nor in Germany nor England have the "normal" bread, which they call Baguette.

    The closest thing I would say for Germans is a Brötchen, which in Spanish would be like a panecillo. What you are seeing in the picture is a Bratwurst Brötchen

    What condiments are on it? Relish?

    Relishes aren't really a thing in Germany, so, traditionally you only put mustard on a Bratwurstbrötchen. However, the sausage itself already contains herbs and spices, like a copious amount of marjoram, some pepper, mace, allspice, and sometimes wild garlic, caraway, or ginger.
