Hamburg Foodfest!

So, on my second day of fall break, today, I headed up to Hamburg with a few friends to go to the northern Germany organic food expo. Ooh yes… woke up this morning at 545, after a few minutes of sleep, and headed up to the lovely city-state of Hamburg, where, shock of all shocks, the sun was SHINING!! It NEVER shines in Hamburg! It was pretty cool… we went into the convention center, got our pretty nametags and swagbags, and headed in! it was pretty much heaven. Except for the vegan stuff. Let me just say: ew. I normally avoid vegan things like the plague, probably because I believe that vegans carry the plague, and that they also can’t taste anything, which is why they choose to be vegan. (sorry, readers who are vegan, no offense intended, but I happen to think that that is a poor life choice. Also, don’t be offended if I put on rubber gloves before I shake your hand… I do that to some other people as well.) I ran away from the vegan foodhawkers, but was tricked once! They cheated, and actually looked like they had eaten real food! So, I tried a vegan blueberry muffin for the first (and last) time ever. Lets just say, (and, oh god am I gonna get shit for this) that there was no bluffin with this muffin… I took a single bite, and lets just say my face didn’t know whether it wanted to shrivel up in disgust, or explode with vomit. Needless to say, I thanked the vegan decepticon nicely, and spit my mouthful into the nearest available receptacle. I will never, ever, ever give up meat and meat products. ever. Other than that, the food was amazing… got to try lots of different organic chocolates, cheeses, coffees, wines,(!) fruits, veggies, and various and sundry other lovely things… On the way there, I got my fill of foodie conversation, and on the way back, I got to talk abt international politics and econ, which was lovely.. all in all, a fantastic day. Now, back to the rest of my fall break :D
