Anon, I'm a prussian and have grown up with german and polish cuisine like Bigosh, Pieroggi, Salatka, Barszcz, etc. I never encountered a non-EE man which didn't ask for a second helping. Eastern european food is basicaly like german food. Both love sausages, sauerkraut and meat hidden in dough. And yes, both love their fatty food simply due to history. If you can't stand a good chunk of smoked pork belly fat on a fresh whole grain bread with butter flooded down with cold piwo, you're simply not northern european (aka Untermensch).

And jokes on you, I love fatty food since I’m from North Western Europe, however only eating that after a few days really is not great and I get tired of it quite quickly.
