My worst food poisoning came after a chocolate milkshake at a McDonald’s in Cologne, when I was 12. I couldn’t keep much down for 2 days. An elderly cousin made German-style chicken noodle soup for me. I love German and Austrian chicken soups, to this day, and only visit McDs in Europe to use their restrooms. I lost my interest in milkshakes after that.
Despite many visits to Germany, I’ve never had doner or currywurst in Germany. My first currywurst was at Stein’s Berlin in London, UK
