Spargel.

Not for me, please, I hate the taste of it. Don't like Sauerkraut any better, while we are at it. I would say that most Germans don't like Sauerkraut, I know and never knew a single one. It's a clichée only that we are crazy for it, deriving from wartimes. It is easy to conserve, is reasonably healthy and lasts long, that made it a good food supply for the troops, and affordable for the population.

Once saw a docu film, a short one, on some speciality they have in Sandinavia, I think it was Iceland or Finland. It is fresh fish, not treated in any way, complete with organs, put into a tin can, and then left for a year. The locals offered it to visitors. the reactions were stunning. One women opened her tin can, immediately turned and started vommiting. Several other faces lost all colour within seconds when picking the smell. Almost all refused to try more than one bite. After that first bite, they showed interesting reactions. One emptioed half a bottle of whiskey or cognac´to get rid of the taste. Another one jumped to the beach and started to fill himself up with the saltwater. Two or three others became very silent and went to the ground. the locals, howver, were laughing, eating their what appeared to be totally rotten fish, and had a good time. :lol: I felt sick by just watching the content of those tin cans.

I don't know what the name of this canned rotten fish is, but not only Stefan Raab used it in his show to scare his guests, also it was the issue of one of the leading cases regarding contract law in german law in the 1950s.
Somebody had ordered canned fish from sweden and got this and sued the importer for damages. Dunno what became of it though, as since 2002 contract violation is now statute law and not chase law anymore and I never learned the old system.

The funny thing is that we lack manpower in Poland also.:D
GB is the place to go now. Ukrainians used to harvest our crops, but they have found new better locations. There has been debating if they should take in Chinese to harvest our crops.:x

So German and Polish farmers should sit down, drink some wodka and eat some bratwurst, and discuss what to do next.
Because a Chinese invasion is next...

But if you do that no one will build our cars, and computers and tellys and every other thing over here.:damn:

Many cheap German workers (and craftmen as well) - have migrated to the agricultural companies in Holland, and Spain
