    The raw meat and raw egg yolk is what scared him. He just watched me like it was a joke and checked the day after on my health status.

      IMO nothing beats a good French onion soup with a cheesy bread.
      And if you didn't mention the patisserie, that would mean you haven't got a sweet tooth.
      It's definitely one of the specialties.
      I'm sure my GF will try that tomorrow when she goes to expensive Paris.

      Yeah, onion soup is up there, too. Fish soup as well imo. There’s just too much good stuff 😅 good for your GF, I bet she’s in for some (expensive) treats 😁

        For me it's Indian food, but then... what else? Ugh... what a question.

        Bah. My mind is a whirling blank right here. I mean, freshly-prepared tiradito right off the boat is like... ffff, like tasting heaven.

        I mean, I've never had *truly* fresh, truly authentic sushi, but I imagine it would be like tiradito? (note: it's a form of ceviche, i.e. latino lime-cooked fish slices)

            If Indian qualifies as one single cuisine - then Indian. I'll have enough dishes to try out in my lifetime and that's after considering I am vegetarian.

                Like my in-laws.... Hmmm here's a great new hummus and salad! Yeah we sprinkled chicken, pork, beef, and shrimp powder and other meat products. It doesn't change the flavor, we just like gout so much.

                Perfectly good meal + smear some dead animal on it.

                    They're scared AF from raw eggs.
                    I know they only eat them if they're pasteurised at least.
                    Read about it once, they have different standards and practices.
                    Same for the meat, totally fine in Europe if all rules are followed.

                        I'm with you folks, on the whole. A well-prepared, complete-protein vegetarian meal rocks, especially with lots of complimentary seasoning.

                        Does gout come from consuming animal products? Hmm, I hadn't heard that, before.

                        Stuff like cabbage (and Brassica sp.) are best cooked, because otherwise they can be goitrogenic, interfering with the thyroid gland's function over time. There's also the (admittedly slim) chance that some animal has passingly added something undesirable to a veggie, be it parasite or disease-causing.

                        Which is why it's important to do either a mild chlorine wash of any veggies you eat, or at least blanch them. (not trying to lecture anyone here; all that's just my personal understanding)

                          From personal experience getting stranded in s foreign country as a kid with my dad unable to walk or move due to uric acid and gout, your worst offenders are red meat, pork and shrimp. Shrimp surprisingly being the worse one. But carry a long needle syringe to get your knees back on the road sooner! LOL.

                          My opinion is that a little meat is OK. I don't eat meat but I can see where others need it like a drug.

                            Levantine and Belgian

                            Nothing beats a nice juicy shawarma with a waffle for desert. Ok maybe a Jet2 holiday beats it, idk.

                            Sorry, I don't mean to nitpick, but neither of those things are exclusively Levantine nor Belgian in culinary specialty.

                            Please do correct where I'm wrong, though.

                              I'm not exactly specifying that they're originally from these regions, but just the fact that they're most well known for being associated with these regions. They're the first place that comes to my mind when I hear these dishes.

                              Couscous isn't exclusively Moroccan either, but when I hear couscous, the first place that comes to mind is Morocco.

                                    Does gout come from consuming animal products? Hmm, I hadn’t heard that, before.

                                    Opposite actually - fructose intake, alcohol intake (same pathway as fructose in liver), advanced glycation end products (glucose intake) are the major drivers of gout.

                                    https://doi.org/10.1016/B978-0-12-821617-0.00004-8 Section 7.3 if you would like to know more (overwhelmingly so) - it's available on the normal 🦜 sites.

                                    Basically the old connection that meat can drive uric acid a bit and uric acid is a component of gout isn't actually helpful, during a active flare up avoiding meat can help reduce uric acid levels a tiny bit but it does nothing to address the systemic cause of the gout in the first place. i.e. Watermelons have a high water content but are not causal in drownings, but avoid eating watermelons while actively drowning.... same thing

                                      If I was to try and dabble in French food, what would you recommend I try? I've literally never had French food as far as I know and am intrigued.

                                      I will add a couple of my favorite dishes to what @[email protected] said. Boeuf Bourguignon, and Tartiflette. Also +1 for boxed French wine.

                                        For me it's Indian food, but then... what else? Ugh... what a question.

                                        Bah. My mind is a whirling blank right here. I mean, freshly-prepared tiradito right off the boat is like... ffff, like tasting heaven.

                                        I mean, I've never had *truly* fresh, truly authentic sushi, but I imagine it would be like tiradito? (note: it's a form of ceviche, i.e. latino lime-cooked fish slices)

                                        American / Canadian and arabic. Great Shwarma can be so flavorful and delicious. I also can't do without a great burger every once in a long while.

                                          What exactly do you think British cuisine is out of curiosity? I know none of those countries have cake as good as black forest gateau so don't even try to claim otherwise.

                                          Fish and chips, meat pie and little more. I don't think it can compete with the mediterránea cuisine
