Its not just about the sausage. Well, it is a lot about the sausage but not all. You’re about to get VERY hungry…

The German equivalent of mac ‘n’ cheese, made from soft egg noodles. Spatzle is the pasta part and the Kase is the BEST part aka the cheese. Yum.

Pure chocolatey, cherry, creamy indulgence. Calories don’t count on holiday.

Obviously when in Germany eat a sausage or a wurst. But don’t stop there, cover it in a special tomato curry sauce and BAM! you’ve got a taste explosion.
4.Wurstsalat

Seriously, they love a sausage, so much so that they’ve made a salad out of it.

Basically a tender steak wrapped around bacon or pork belly, chopped onions, pickles and mustard. Mmmmm.
8.German Bier
OK not technically food but when in Germany, drink beer and lots of it, especially at Oktoberfest.

Again not strictly a food, but it’s an incredible mix of coco-cola and orange soda – what’s not to love?
