Culture Shock #1: Eating Lard


Very interestingly, at the first year since I moved to Budapest, I was answering an interview by Hungary Starts Here who are publishers of Hungary guide books. The question asked was: "Have you seen or experienced things which are very different from your country?"

To me, very immediately, it was about the culture of eating lard here in Hungary. Even city dwellers who lives in Budapest are the same. They do not squirm at the mentioned of lard like Singaporeans :) Instead they all loved it. At first, I was a little skeptical about this lard eating habit. However, I guess now I must confessed that I have become a 'convert' :)

[In another post, I'll tell you why "I love eating lard".]
