Eating with Germans

It is quite one thing to hang out in a German dorm all day. I've gotten the German dorm lifestyle down. It's quite similar to the American dorm lifestyle. There are a bunch of kids who are too lazy and too cheap to cook for themselves so they get pizza basically every night. Real German families do not eat pizza every night. Luckily for me, the past two weekends I have spent with German families. They both have one thing in common - consumption of beer and raw red meat. Now Americans consume beer, but not in the quantities that Germans do and Americans, at least most Americans, do not regularly sit down and slab an inch thick layer of raw ground meat on top of bread. However, I must say, that it has been a pleasant cultural experience. Eating something aside from pizza and instant soup is always a plus and frankly I kinda want to attempt to make this yummy raw meat dish in my kitchen. We'll see how that goes. I'm sure the attempt will be eventful enough to comprise a blog entry.
