    Yeah we have a grocery delivery business here in the Netherlands that has really low prices and I’ve heard it’s because they ship in a lot of the food directly from Germany. Kind of insane to me that it’s cheaper to cart in food from another country than it is to just get it here.

        Surprisingly the Netherlands is the 2nd biggest exporter of agricultural products in the world only behind the US. Kind of mind boggling considering how small this country is.
