Saw a map today, on reddit or around here, showing the dominant kind of restaurants across european countries : local food or foreign food. And sure enough, most of northern and Eastern Europe prefers foreign food. Anyone who’s traveled around Europe will have a fairly good idea why.
All I’m saying is, the bit about food doesn’t work for all countries.
Dutch cuisine is so boring and bland, it’s no wonder almost everyone prefers anything foreign. Everything traditional we cook tends to lack flavor and texture, it’s filling but not exactly attractive.
We also don’t really have a food culture here. Dutch people don’t like to spend more time eating than they have to. A meal never lasts more than 20-30 minutes tops.
It’s not exactly surprising that there’s no such thing as a Dutch restaurant outside of the Netherlands…
A “brand of bread” !? Really ? Bread is baked by craftsmen and is a baguette. Everything else is not entitled to be called bread, moreover industrial branded “bread” !!

From what I know about the dutch, they bake very nice bread at least. We have a lot of Dutch brands of bread over here that are pretty good.
