Absolutely!

As an American who has gotten to travel to Scandinavia, the food is so much more fresh and high quality. Even the basic stuff like a hotel breakfast or workplace cafeteria lunch.

It was one difference among a thousand others that I noticed when being there in person. I remember thinking to myself โ€œwhat is this strange vibe Iโ€™m getting from all these cultural differences? Oh, itโ€™s human dignity, respect for others, and in turn respect for oneself.โ€

I want to say โ€œEurope, help!โ€ but I know they have to protect themselves and the world from our shit show first.
