    Gah, I'm really confused at this one...See, I don't know if I'm Dutch or not...See, I have a Dutch last name "Van Ness" but, its only because my Grandpa was adopted by a Dutchman...He was actually a Russian Jew.

    So, I don't have Dutch blood but technically I have a Dutch family line...Can any of the resident Dutchmen proclain whether this qualifies me as Dutch or not?

    Cocoa is, well... cocoa. Or cacao. A drink. Brown powder you add to milk. Not chocolate. The brand I've been drinking as a kid was always Van Houten.

    If you have ever accidentally crossed one of those Dutch web sites, you'll see many times the word lekker.

    I don't know what it means, but must be very admirative, because they always surround it with many smilies and write it 'draggin' the Rs. This way:


    Lekkerrrrrrr...!!!

    ---

    Eadingas, I'm just 34, and never heared of that cocoa brand. Here, Nesquik, or more commonly Colacao -a typical Spanish product since the 40s. Van Helsing or whatever must have been the preferred cocoa of Queen Victoria...

    ---

    In the north of Spain, cattle owners in the mountains also wear wooden clogs. In Spanish they're called zuecos, but the colloquial word we use in Cantabria is albarcas. I know some country discos where the peasants arrive stinking -literally- to bullsh*t, leave the clogs in the cloakroom, and enter to dance...

    Hah! You got all americanized, and don't know the good stuff of your own country :)
    Found their website: http://www.vanhoutendrinks.com/
    It's a "bit" higher quality than Nesquik :) And yes, that was in the early 80's. We used to get it in foreign aid parcels while suffering under communist yoke... I guess we weren't that bad off :D

    It was probably bought up by Unilever. All your icecream are belong to Unilever as well. :]

    the cheese people wear clogs too actually. there bloody waggis have them on at fasnacht! got to hate fasnacht, people always complain about noise in this country. but the noise at fasnacht is okay, and all the drunken layabouts are tolerable too it seems.

    Jerby, Belgium sucks? That's it, you got yourself a war, buddy! :)

    Seriously, I'm damn proud being a Belgian : good chocolate, good fries, damn good steaks and ofcourse, the "mosselen" (although I gotta admit, Dutch ones are damn fine aswell.)

    Go Belgae! :)
