比利时炸薯条也要申遗

佛兰德斯荷语区政府已于今年承认炸薯条为比国文化不可或缺的一部分。预计法语区与德语区将在明年就此事展开讨论。

UNAFRI, the national association of fritkot owners, which started the drive, says the unpolished establishments are uniquely Belgian, combining the country's embrace of chaos with a dislike of corporate uniformity.

据悉，此项倡议由比利时油炸食品业者联盟(UNAFRI)发起。他们认为这种“粗放型”的炸薯条是比利时人独特的象征，是该国包容散漫、摈弃集团化统一操作理念结合的产物。

"A cone of potato chips is Belgiumin miniature. What's astounding is that this way of thinking is the same, notwithstanding the different communities and regions," said spokesman Bernard Lefevre.

该联盟的发言人伯纳德·勒菲佛(Bernard Lefevre)说道：一小份薯条是比利时的缩影。我所惊讶的是三个地区的公众能在申遗这个问题上达成一致，而不是各自发声。”

Many tourists join the locals in the long queues at popular Brussels fritkots such as Frit Flagey and Maison Antoine.

纷至沓来的游客也不免前往布鲁塞尔的薯条店去凑一把热闹。

"Before I came here, one of the only things I knew about Belgium was that they liked their fries, so I think they are pretty much there already," said Rachael Webb, a visitor from Ottawa, Canada, holding a cone of fries.
