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:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

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…

There was a really fun Dutch restaurant in Osaka. Besides that I don't know of any.

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.

A "brand of bread" !? Really ? Bread is baked by craftsmen and is a baguette. Everything else is not entitled to be called bread, moreover industrial branded "bread" !!
