Absolutely. Not only did my wife’s family have to have a picture of “Der Fuehrer” in the apartment but they also had to display a flag on his birthday each year. The “Block Nazi” would report anyone who didn’t comply. Welcome to the future folks!
My wife was born in 1934 in Hitler’s Germany and went through WWII and its aftermath there. Every day when she reads the news she sees striking parallels beginning to happen right here and now. “Soon comes the GEheimSTAtsPOlitzei!” (Gestapo) she warns. I believe her.
Properly prepared and served with shallots it is very good. I wouldn’t have it now though. Back when I ordered it in Hamburg was long before Mad Cow Disease and other nasties were prevalent.
Thank you for the beautiful sentiments Sandpiper. (FYI she was born and grew up in what was then East Prussia, now part Poland and part Russia.)
