healthy in belgium? no problem

• ok so it is true that most belgians do eat 2 cold meals and one hot meals each day, and they do love their potatoes..but would never say that they do not love variation as well!
  i am not belgium, however i have spent 2 years over there and i ate much better there than i do here in canada. their ingredients are always very fresh (no preservatives!!) and i have yet to find a place where you cannot find a fresh produce market within a 15 min walk (notice i said walk, not drive..they are pretty green over there).
  
  and to faidra..they most certainly do eat baguettes. my aunt walks 10 minutes to the bakery 3 times a day to get fresh baguettes which you dont even need to put butter on they're so delicious.
  
  in my opinion belgians are alot healthier than us North Americans..especially since i only ever saw one (just one) macdonalds and that about summed up their fast food options. they put a lot of effort into what they eat and it shows.
  
  if being able to eat healthy is what you're worried about do not stress. i too am a health nut and i had no problem. the food part is easy but belgium life in general is just so tranquil that i found i always had much more energy there as well.
  
  hope this helps!
