I’m trying to think of the last food item I’ve eaten that was made in Europe, without success.
Preparing EU exit tariffs for the upcoming trade war with the US?
In that case, fancy wines that rich people buy.
European sardines are VASTLY superior to most of the stuff you get in the US
I’m good as long as Scotland and Lagavulin isn’t back in EU.
I love that Smarties are naturally colored. All our candy is basically carcinogenic
Which ones, the chalky fruity ones or the candy coated chocolates?
It’s not from Europe but I wouldn’t feel the same if I couldn’t get Pocky anymore.
German chocolate is like a whole other food than the wax that Hershey’s pretends is the real thing.
Try Belgian chocolate next
Soapy-tasting wax, at that.
Danish butter cookies are pretty awesome
Those tins never contain cookies when I see them.
Croissants (made here but I think of them as so French)
Good cheese (there is some great cheese being made here but in Europe they make different ones and they are so, so delicious)
Cava wine, the Raventos Blanco Blanco de Blancos Vino Cava holy crap that stuff is so good it convinced me wine can be simply delicious on its own.
Cheese, cured and uncured dried meats, dairy…actual food standards that protect consumers and aren’t pumped full of antibiotics, they just taste so much better.
Most of it… Last trip I took to Europe, I was staying in an airB&B in Iceland with a few friends, and it had a kitchen. I went to the Bonus (local grocer) and got bread, cheese, eggs, and butter and made a simple fried egg sandwich for breakfast every day. Best damn food ive ever made for myself.
We dont have good cheap bread state side, cheese product is most of whats on the shelves and Euro eggs were just better. It took about a week after coming home for random food items to stop tasting like plastic…
I don’t think there’s any food product from Europe that I regularly consume.
Now, Mexico and South America, on the other hand…
Every time I go to Mexico, one of the first things I do is get tacos! I NEEEED EM!!!
Same. But I did enjoy some of it. There was some local spring water in Bosnia that was awesome, cevapcici is cool, and I enjoyed the Georgian wine I had in Ukraine. Also the Netherlands’ food surprised me. I loved everything I tried, especially bitterballen and mustard soup.
W SAUCE
Probably just the swiss chocolate in the Holls chocolates I get for some holidays. The bonbons/truffles themselves are made in Vienna…West Virginia.
Prosecco…
…and Campari.
