Do you see this anywhere else in the world?
Why are some people so obsessed with taking selfies?

Allthough there might be a miniscule tinge of nutrional goodness in German cuisine ("cuisine" used as a very low bar) one must understand that this awful reputation is all Hitler's fault.
Why you ask? Appently one of his bootlickers wrote a book on Der Führer and leaked out that his favourite food were cream puffs. Eaten with every meal. The writer was strangled some months later, but his revelation carried on.
Le Cuisine de Deutchland has been a disaster ever since ... fodder-wise. They certainly know how to construct great autobahns though.
Now .... let's discuss Russian food.

But Jamie Oliver in the school canteen series was so cute.:heart:
To me, mobile phones at the dinner table are far worse than food porn. My dad forbids it and my grandma is sure to pass a sarcastic remark if anyone is tapping away on their phone while we're having a meal together at home or out.

Actually she'll be 77 in less than a couple of weeks. She was born in a remote part of Malaya during the Occupation and her birth date wasn't properly recorded. It was only after the Japanese surrendered to the Allied Forces in 1945 that her birth was properly registered and her birth year was recorded as 1942 although my grandma has always insisted that she is a year younger. As her birth month and date were not recorded, we usually celebrate her birthday on Chinese New Year eve in accordance with our belief that our age changes with the changing Zodiac.
