This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Saw a map today, on reddit or around here, showing the dominant kind of restaurants across european countries : local food or foreign food. And sure enough, most of northern and Eastern Europe prefers foreign food. Anyone who's traveled around Europe will have a fairly good idea why.
All I'm saying is, the bit about food doesn't work for all countries.
Dutch cuisine is so boring and bland, it’s no wonder almost everyone prefers anything foreign. Everything traditional we cook tends to lack flavor and texture, it’s filling but not exactly attractive.
We also don’t really have a food culture here. Dutch people don’t like to spend more time eating than they have to. A meal never lasts more than 20-30 minutes tops.
It’s not exactly surprising that there’s no such thing as a Dutch restaurant outside of the Netherlands…
From what I know about the dutch, they bake very nice bread at least. We have a lot of Dutch brands of bread over here that are pretty good.
