Interesting, thanks for sharing. ๐Ÿ‘

Why does Belgium has such a high rice consumption in comparison to the Netherlands or Germany?

Any special Belgian dish I am not aware of or a high percentage of immigrants?

We have a lot of people of Turkish decent, so maybe that's part of the explanation? Not sure though.
