Danish food culture and culinary heritage - has been cultivated and improved for many generations - and is mainly rooted from the old country kitchen - with ancient food recipes from all over the Danish kingdom - created first and foremost - as a shield to protect the Danes against the cold weather conditions in Denmark. That’s why the Danes for centuries have eaten a lot of meat - especially loads of pork - but also beef together with plenty of potatoes and vegetables. Poultry and fish products are the Danes second choice. The cold and often wet climate in Denmark requires a lot of food with high nutritional values that contain many vitamins - minerals and proteins to mobilise a great portion of energy - which is a vital source - needed for work - at school - for sports and another form of daily activities - when living in a dynamic and modern society like Denmark that demands plenty of individual energy and human recourses every day.
