This food topic will be coming from a place called Poland in Europe.

Polish people have many types of food like desserts and main courses. However, there is a history to Polish food. During the middle ages, the Polish liked to use meat a lot. That and cereal was their main ingredients in most of their dishes. If you were to look at the Polish cuisine, there would be a lot of foods with meat, especially beef, in them. And during the Renaissance period, the Italian queen, Queen Bona, and many Italian cooks came to Poland, and during that time, vegetables were used more.
