I love the Italian Beef and Sausage Combo sandwich!

I understand you come from the same origins, but you have diverged and have different languages and ethnic identities at this point. It's like Americans and English Canadians.

You mean English Americans and English Canadians. They are both Anglo and part of the Anglosphere - in much the same way as we're part of the Germanosphere.

This American Beef and Sausage sandwich looks delicious.

Except we speak the same language as Anglo-Canadians. Your people don't speak German. (although you might, I can't tell)

I have had both of them individually and they are both very good. Italian Beef is part of the Chicago holy trinity of food (along with deep dish pizza and Chicago style hot dogs, which are also outstanding; key is the roll must have poppyseeds, and there can be no ketchup, only mustard and relish, with pickles and peppers!)

Since you don't speak Dutch or German - you might not want to get involved there as Dutch can be considered a part of the Lower German dialect continuum. The only that just happened was that those dialects got codified in a written official language and an official spoken language (which we now know as Dutch - which is derived from the Hollandic dialects). The spoken dialects and the German dialects are a literal continuum.

It is really not Italian food...

Those posted are most likely American but there are also in Italy, we call "panino" (not sandwich) with sausage, especially pork sausage, beef, tripe, porchetta, and so on. Very common food in Italy.

I speak German, but not fluently.

But standard Dutch and standard German are not mutually intelligible, any more than standard French and standard Italian are.

Then you don't speak it at all. Dutch and Germans (particularly those from the Rhineland and Northern Germany) can understand Dutch and we can understand both official German as well as their dialects. Reading the official languages (both are entirely artificial and based on metropolitan spelling and their words), can sometimes take a few seconds more.

Better keep out of things you know nothing about.

I've heard Dutch, and I could barely understand anything.
