Weißwurstäquator

The Weißwurstäquator (literally: white sausage equator) is a humorous term describing the (supposedly) very different culture and dialect of the Southern part of Germany, especially Bavaria, as opposed to its other parts. The term refers to the fact that Weißwurst is a favorite dish in Southern Germany, but seldom served in the other regions.
