This article discusses the food culture in Schleswig, a region which was the subject of the famous 19th century diplomatic tangle, the Schleswig-Holstein Question [1].
Which brings me to a quote. Per Wikipedia:
The British statesman Lord Palmerston is reported to have said: “Only three people have ever really understood the Schleswig-Holstein business — the Prince Consort, who is dead — a German professor, who has gone mad — and I, who have forgotten all about it."
