Very interesting, but I really struggle to believe that the diets of Germany and the Netherlands are that different, having lived in both of them.

You think so? My impression of the Netherlands is that the staple food is fries with mayonnaise, maybe with some broodje kroket in between. In general the diet consists of a lot of butter, white bread and sugar. To me it does not seemt surprising at all that they eat least vegetables in Europe.

This is far from the truth.

Breakfast and lunch usually consist of whole grain bread with cheese or meats. The most common dinner is AVG (boiled potatoes with vegetables and meat), a pasta or a dish with rice.

Sure, fries are the most common street food, but it sure isn't as bad as you seem to think.

Shouldn't have adjusted the scale for the North American graphic.

Yeah, that's pretty egregious. It looks like North America is no better than Poland in the first graphic.
