Without paying much attention or zooming in I could tell this was Dutch. Then I saw the white chair, the cheese and de Ruijter.
The white chair is TripTrap made by Stokke (At least the original design, guess it's been pirated by other makers) This could have been any Nordic country as well apart from the details ofc :) I blame IKEA for that
So the Norwegian Forest Cat is sitting on the Norwegian children chair :)
Edit. Think it might be a siberian actually...
The dealbreaker for me is that a nordic home would never have pre-sliced cheese on the table but rather a big block of cheese and a cheese slicer.

Well spotted!
Hard and soft tacos? How accommodating.
Are hard tacos actually nice to eat? Whenever I see them in movies and such, it seems like the tortilla would just shatter the moment you bite into it.
It's like a tortilla made of a giant cornchip. Breakage can be an issue but they don't explode like glass or anything.
Soft tacos are easier to eat but you can't get Doritos crunchy taco shells as a soft taco
No, they’re not. Unless you like making messes. Then they’re right up your alley.
I like hard shell tacos, though I will say it's often an exercise in creatively holding broken pieces of taco as I eat it. The secret is to spread a tortilla with refried beans (or any other food that can serve as glue; guac, sour cream, melted cheese, etc) then wrap that around the hardshell taco for a best of both worlds experience. It's also very much a white people taco night thing; I'd never want a hard shell for a good Mexican or texmex style taco, but if you're talking about ground beef in a Mccormick spice blend with peripherals from the "mexican" aisle of an American supermarket, hard shells are dope.
Crunch wraps!
Soft taco around a hard taco.
Tuxedo Batman is so polite, and cute.
10/10 deserves dinner.
Where is dinner at? I will be there for taco night every time.
And on Taco Night no less‽
A white people taco night no less...
I am so gratified to learn that others use this term, too. Ain’t nothing wrong with some hamburger meat in a large tortilla chip with cheddar cheese, but it is most definitely not the same food item as you get from a taco joint. This is one of those home cooking exclusives.
People shit on these tacos but it's a way better use of ground beef than fucking manwich or hamburger helper or meatloaf, or anything else besides burgers.
Yeah that’s a good point. We make some pretty gourmet meatloaf at my house so I might quibble with you on that one. But I am sure there’s some awful meatloaf out there too. Manwch is just… I can’t even. Isn’t it basically dog food you put on bread and call it a sandwich?

I was going to comment the same excitement to someone else who used it above but couldn't think of a good way to phrase it without sounding mildly bigoted.
Damn I would have eaten that whole spread growing up. Late for dinner? more like foods gone
taco cat is taco cat spelled backwards
I thought it was weird my SO grandma's cat ate at the table with us but I guess it's not unusual.
I know the seasoning packets say to drain the fat from the hamburger after browning, but it always leaves it so dry. I never drain the fat out or add water and I let it all marinate for at least an hour before serving. It's so, so much better.
Depends on the how lean of a mix you use too. I use fattier ground beef for tacos (80:20 lean to fat) and drain the fat after browning. I find that with that ratio draining doesn’t dry out the beef at all. The other key I’ve found is to cover the serving dish with the beef, while it’s sitting between being scooped for servings. Seems to dry out much faster if left exposed to open air

White people taco niiiiiight!!
Figures a tuxedo cat would have class
Ay yo white people taco night? Where you at, I'm flyin in
The cat's just sitting there like "the cheeese tax, the cheeese tax"
Next taco night, add a bit of water to your sour cream to make it a little bit runny. Then add a bit of salt, some lime juice and smoked paprika. Is nice.
This is why I prefer low-fat sour cream for burritos and tacos, it's a little runnier. I just throw some finely diced shallots in there and leave it for some time in the fridge.
