Is there a source for this data?

IIRC in Norway they have "Taco Friday"
Yeah, we got sections of our grocery stores dedicated to them. Why, you ask? It is part of our national cultural heritage since we apropriated it from Mexico, of course.
Same in Sweden.
I think the main reason is because a Swedish spice company spread the idea many years ago.
Give us a Guinness pint emoji ffs
Nobody using that is off to drink German-style Steiners
🍻 I am not surprised.
Russia is not part of Europe.
It is. Europe is commonly defined all the way to the Ural mountains, which are located somewhere in the middle of Russia. Most of russian population lives in Europe.
Culturally I'd also put that part of Russia closer to the Slavic countries than to any fully Asian country.
But why would the other countries, like Switzerland would be excluded then?
No data available, most likely.
It's made by some dude on instagram. He probably just didn't find the proper data for some countries.
And 'continents' are just arbitrary conventions. Where they begin/end can't be settled by anything objective. There are several models for delineating them.
Interesting!
I was thought the five continent model as a child concerning the geographic continents (but Australia was called Oceania) and the seven continent model in society class (Samhällsorientering)
Why is Russia shaped so weird?
They wanted to use the geographical definition of Europe, so they cut off everything beyond the Ural mountains and Caspian sea.
seems like a strange definition of europe?
Norway has tacos?
Yep it's kind of a thing. Any Friday can be tacofredag in Norway.

You alright Portugal?
Portugal (and Switzerland, I think?) had a heroin problem in the 2000s. They decriminalized it and it was a major success.
Oh Portugal's feeling alriiight
