Dining like the Danes

Okay, just a few comments on the food here.  I just went grocery shopping on a large scale and found out a few things about Danish cuisine.  One, they totally have peanut butter here, so everything I read about it not being the same was a straight up lie, it tastes just like Jif!  Two, the carrots taste like dirt, I'm not such a fan.  Three, the eggs are brown eggs!! Woohoo for farm fresh eggs!  The milk here is also really fresh and the only things done to it is a little pasteurization which is a good thing.  It does spoil quicker though so thats something to look out for.  It also comes in weird percent fats like 0.5% fat.  The yogurt comes in a carton!  I got laughed at in the supermarket today when I asked a lady if cheesy yogurt actually meant that it was cheesy.  It was in fact a brand of yogurt.  They have Special K here and amazing jam.  The strawberries are so tiny too!! GMO's are illegal in Europe so here they have real strawberries instead of the hyper-sized ones.  The wine here is crap, but also that's due to the fact that I have been searching for the cheapest ones.  Besides that everything is pretty much the same that I have experienced.  Oh also the tea is amazing!  I think this is because it comes right from Great Britain and they know what they're talking about.
