> HeHe, verty likely. We Germans have, in turn, a problem with getting others to understand our appreciation for "Sauerkraut". We do also get blamed for "Schnitzel", which is unfair, since it is an Austrian export.

Well well, it's another German! I would just like to mention that most people I know here (which is in fact a part of Germany) do NOT like sauerkraut at all, including myself.

> Hmmm, might be. I do not know a single German dish that uses mint as an ingredient. Nor does any recipy that my wife and me aver cooked require mint. In Germany it's definitely an "alien" ingredient. I cant comment on other countries, though. Up to now I thought that England was the primary mint nation of this here planet :-)

You know, at first I thought that the part about there being no German dish with mint was a bit exaggerated, but now I can't think of any. Peppermint tea (or rather, hot water with peppermint in it) is pretty common here, though.
