Quite frankly I'm a bit surprised he didn't mention potatoes, since those tend to sit well with the Irish and the Dutch.

I never got the impression that they were, like, mainstream Netherlands stuff. Like tulips. Ana windmills. Are they?

Wait. Apparently it's legal and there's this huge sex club for tourists, so never mind!

I'll never think about you in the same way, Dutch people.

For those who never got any further than the usual tourist traps in Amsterdam, maybe. I guess this is a subtle matter of me getting some stereotypicalities in return for all the hard times I gave Gallade.

I do hope you like a mysterious woman, Dami. And that you're a man who enjoys the chase . . . *whispers in your ear* . . . the tease . . .

They got coffee in return, so it's all good. Modern potatoes are quite different from the original tubers, by the way. Different climates and soils will do that to such a versatile crop.
