I'm a simple emigrant and the question about food is one of my favorites

But unlike fussiness about nothing, which I have, there are also people who adhere to a certain style of eating for objective reasons. For example, vegetarianism or veganism, a desire to eat less sugar or flour, but at the same time not giving up pastries and ice cream. I, as a person far from this, don't even know which ingredients should or should not be for each of the 'types' of food. But in Germany it's much easier with this. First, a huge variety of everything: products in stores, vegan cafes, or options in ordinary restaurants. Second, labeling makes it unnecessary to Google the list of 'forbidden' ingredients and to compare the composition of each product, because on every package there is a special symbol indicating to which group of goods it belongs. And these symbols themselves are deciphered on price tags or on nearby papers. Third, as strange as it may seem, it's simply a psychological state: hearing about your food preferences, no one starts rolling their eyes, telling you how useless what you're doing is and trying to pull you to their side. In my view, all these moments are equally important. Do you have any special eating habits? #food
