I feel like I don't give enough love to the Frisians and Friesland on the blog? It is possible that you've not yet been to the Netherlands and perhaps you haven't heard the name Friesland before. For info about that region, a good place to start is ye olde wikipedia entry.
Today I randomly stumbled upon the site: friesland-products.nl . A mostly unremarkable website, but I was interested in what good products that region way up north produces.
The list seems to include:
-Several kinds of Cheese -Frisian Beer Jenever, a pure grain alcohol -Frisian Cake Snacks (??!)
I realize these items may not sway you, as beer, cheese, alcohol, and cake are not quite for everyone. Still, that is what the site is advertising. At this point I can only vouch for the cheese. Update when I've tried any of the other 3.
