The Dutch drink alot of milk. When I was there for a training, we had cheese sandwiches everyday and to drink they brought cartons and cartons of milk. All of the Dutch drank glass after glass of cold milk, which to me, was a bit bizarre. But I guess that explains why they are known for being so tall.
The Belgians like having rabbits for pets, but they also enjoy eating rabbit. At a dinner, every Belgian told me a story about how:
1 – As a child, their rabbit went missing one day, and that night they ate rabbit.
2 – Their rabbit eats all of the clothes, cables, furniture, etc. and poops everywhere.
3 – They threaten their children to clean up after the pet rabbit, or it will go “in the pot”.
It is weird to eat your pets? Am I the only one that thinks so?
Finally, a British co-worker who has been living in Belgium for 5 years and has a pet rabbit, told me the rabbit buying secret. At the butcher, a rabbit costs 27 euros. However, he discovered when buying his child a pet rabbit that at a pet store, a rabbit costs only 12 euros. And he doesn’t mind “doing the deed” himself.
The longer I stay here, the closer I am to becoming a vegetarian.

Are you going to love me or eat me?
