Wowwwwww....
I'd always idly planned on going to Belgium when I make my Grand European Tour (tm) and try some real frites, you know, fried with horse fat and dipped in mayo. And sit around doing Poirot imitations.

But if getting hit by a car while walking across the street in a haze of calorie-induced euphoria could end up with me being "terminally sedated", then forget them.

Besides, Googling tells me that for "economic and health reasons" even the Belgians aren't using horse fat anymore.

YOU'VE LOST YOUR SOUL, BELGIANS.

Not everyone. The wonderful [profile] sevenorora, above, is Belgian, and one of the finest human beings it has been my very underserved privilege to know.
