Oh how the pork sings.....


We will only be here in Germany for one more day, but I'm sure we will be having some form of pork and beer for dinner. It's almost all that they serve. Roast pork, pork hocks, pork schnitzel, pork cordon bleu, a liver and pork loaf(tastes better than it sounds), if it comes from a pig, the Germans can't get enough of it. And of course there is the wurst. Bratwurst and Weisswurst are staples to the German diet and are found on every street corner and in every restaurant. It is ridiculous how much pork is eaten in this country. I'm still not sure how I havent had a heart attack and I've been here for only a week and a half. Between pork and potato dumplings and a bowl full of real gravy, I've seldom ate anything else. And everyday, I've said to myself, "I think I'll pass on the pork today" and without fail, for lunch and dinner, I've eaten pork. I think I might have a salad tonight.
