You probably missed the social media upset when Jamie Oliver "updated" the traditional paella by adding chorizo (to much opprobrium from your neck of the woods).

 

[JohannaK]

I did not.

The complaints came from Spain. Just saying.

Of which Joan is presumably a citizen.

 

[Takhisis]

If you want to give him a heart attack, yes. Or, to be more accurate, a subject.

Map of the world by (outdated) currency:

 

[JohannaK]

The Eurozone uses the euro...

 

[really]

The Eurozone uses the euro...

The map uses a EUR 500 note for the Eurozone. You might not be as familiar with them as I am. (I had one, once)

 

[JohannaK]

yes, it is what I was pointing out. I meant it to be very subtly asking "outdated how?"

 

[Takhisis]

Argentina has a weird old gazillion peso/austral bill, and there's still only one Sudan.

Map looks like it's most likely from 2006, 2007 or 2008

And still I haven't seen those alleged Argentine bills, unless it's one of the weird $100 editions.

 

[W|M]

Probably is, there's like a 50% chance the Brazilian one is a R$100 bill as well

 

[Takhisis]

Actually, scratch that, it's a very old bill, I've just realised that what strikes me as odd is that it's a million-unit currency. So it's from '92 or earlier.

 

[W|M]

But if it were from '92 or earlier, Namibia would be part of South Africa, Eritrea would be a part of Ethiopia, and the Eurozone wouldn't be a thing
