Yeah, ruining food was one of the “benefits” of joining the EU. Fortunately some of the local farms still produce high end vegetables, dairy products and pork. But you have to know where to look. Even most Bulgarians have no idea. You need to go to remote places to experience authentic cuisine. Serbia and Macedonia benefit from the lack of EU slop and forced imports. Yet they still want to join the EU, the poor fools.
About the trains… you enjoyed riding a rail toilet from the soviet era? Really?

yeah, soviet era rail toilets, with overnight trains at 1am in the morning from sofia to varna. very nice.gif i one time bumped into a dude on another occasion who shared a j with me in one that was a nice spice along the road. i mean, yes, the shorter trips are better but yeah, first time i went to belgrade it was train all the way, soviet toilet. i read crime and punishment from end to end on the trip. was awesome.
