If you've never ate it I can grant you: You're not German, especially not average. In best case we can agree you might have been born here.

BS. Many people don't eat that stuff. Especially in the south. Only know 2 people who eat it. Old geezers from my workplace.

Not BS. Actual stastics show Mett and specifically Hackepeter are some of the most sold items at any supermarket meat counter in the whole country.
There is even an inofficial celebration day, “Mettwoch”, on which everyone brings Mett to the office. To boost motivation for the second half of week lol.

Also my experience from living in half the German states confirms this. Mett is everywhere, whether you like it or not.

And what do statistics have to do with calling us not german for not eating it ? People who don't eat that stuff are everywhere. You can find them in every village or city. They exist whether you like it or not.

That part was obviously not that deep…
I wasn’t calling you not German.
I was fact checking your “BS” that came right off the bat.

Is it BS to call people who don't eat it not german yes or no ?

No, it is BS to say many people don’t eat that stuff when the exact opposite is the case.

1% of 100% are still 830k people. That's many people. The actual numbers are very likely way higher and a few millions isn't a low number either.
