German food is just the wurst.
The Danes know, they rated us just as bad as the US and Britain.
It's true as well. We make good bread but the hot food is horrible. This is why there is a pizzeria, asian restaurant and doner shop on every street corner over here.
Yeaaaa...but you sometimes still crave their food
That is because people are lazy as fuck and not because there are only 5 meals to chose from. Blame it on bad education that does not teach any cooking at all. Like from what are people supposed to learn? From eating meals?
Also don't fuck with good german bread. It can be amazing and you can eat pretty healthy if you don't put shitty cheese or meat on it (cancerous shit, it is on you if you eat that stuff).
Boohoo people at work got their souls drained and put in literally zero effort. Maybe you should not eat in shitty canteens, where the focus lies on the food being cheap. And even then I have seen great canteens at university where you would have salad bars, fruit salad bars and 6 different main dishes, different pretty much every day in a month.
You don't like Germany? That is cool, there is a lot of shit to unpack and yes many people don't give a fuck about food. Many people don't really give a fuck about anything these days. If you would be really interested in German cuisine you would do some searching. Not that you would have to, but why the hell would I take your shallow experiences for anything else? I have atleast 10 cooking books and there is not a single "Metigel" (the abomination you posted) to be found.
I love immigrants and especially the new varieties of food they bring. Why do you think they long for the food of their origin? Maybe it is because everything here sucks but maybe it is because it is a piece of home they can take with them.
Sorry if I sound pissed but it kinda sucks if people in leftist spaces pitch their ignorance (bordering on bigotry) stemming from a few experiences and hear say as knowledge.
