Thank you Germany: Part 029: The diverse organic food inspires environmentally conscious people

Germany also offers the best options for people who follow a vegan or vegetarian diet. In almost all cities there are restaurants and even snack bars that specialise in vegetarian and vegan food. But you will also find a meat-free option on every other menu.

In addition, more and more supermarkets and retail chains are offering organic products from sustainable production. So if you want to eat an ecologically conscious diet, you have a good chance in this country. Some people also take advantage of regional farming offers. Many organic farms have their own shop or supply people with seasonal fruit and vegetables. Newly established restaurants in the cities are also making sure that people get a taste for vegetarian food. They provide Germans with nutritious and healthy food. However, care is always taken to ensure that this also appeals to visitors visually.

Vegetarianism may also have become so popular in Germany because it is not only possible to eat well here, but also to do so in an ecologically sustainable way. More and more people have therefore adopted vegetarian cuisine in their private lives. But don't worry: no restaurant or event organiser in Germany is forcing people to give up meat. Those who would like to eat a hearty steak also have the best opportunities to do so. Markets here also already offer organic meat.

The environmental movement in Germany has thus created a broad awareness among the population. Many people now only buy organic meat. And retailers offer it at a price that people can afford. However, food inspections in Germany also pay attention to good and high-quality goods, regardless of the price. If you buy food in a German supermarket, you don't have to worry about spoiling your stomach.

The goods purchased are always good and edible until the best-before date. In this respect, Germans are extremely reliable. This also significantly increases the quality of life in terms of nutrition. Compared to other countries, it is very rare to make a bad purchase here. The shops also pay attention to hygienic storage. This is already required by law and is checked at regular intervals. In addition to the large supermarket chains, Germany also offers vegetarian food from many small markets.

One of the hobbies of Germans is that they like to go shopping at a nice market at the weekend. You can be thankful to the country for the fresh produce on offer and the wonderful shopping experience. The beautiful market usually provides a nice start to a day off at the weekend. Vegetarian food can also be sampled on the spot at many stalls. The markets here offer a real treat that is also culturally diverse. Delicious cheese from France can be found at the markets, as well as falafel or fine dishes from the Arab world, for example. But Italian dishes and Turkish cuisine have also found their way onto Germany's culinary map via many migrant worker families. The entire population benefits from the result. And they are always happy to try different things.
