    Tell me you know nothing about European cuisines without telling me you know nothing about European cuisines.

    Vegan is going to be a bit harder in the northern parts because butter but there’s a fuckton of traditional naturally vegetarian dishes. Peasants back in the days had maybe a pig that they raised for food and another to sell, that’s not a “meat every day” type of supply. Eggs are a different matter.

      Im from poland. Most „traditional” restaurants have no or one main dish that is vegetarian. Theres even meat in dishes that are potato based, because thats how people ate them since the 19th century.

          If theyre not served with skwarki (fried bacon) they are one of the few choices. Other are placki ziemniaczane (hash browns) and those too are often served with meat but you can get them with sour cream or sugar
