Robert Habeck’s mustard to Söder’s sausages – a historical mistake

Robert Habeck has left politics and said goodbye to his nemesis Markus Söder with the sentence: “This fetish sausage eating is not a policy.” Habeck thus alludes to Söder’s passion for Franconian sausages, but above all on Söder’s even greater passion to be reflected with food and then fill his social media channels with the photos like a French poultry maker.

I find the fetish sausage eating a very nice word creation. Söder also secretly envy it to the hated Habeck, since the ex-journalist has already noticed with creative terms: “Smurfig” he once aptly called a certain defiant grin by Olaf Scholz.

I have a different opinion with Habeck whether the love of sausage is politics. Of course it is just a different one than Habeck she wanted. Laxist and climate change consistently ignored meat eating is certainly the opposite of the sophisticated video speeches, the Habeck used to address the people, but unfortunately-also more successful. The direct political connection between the bratwurst stand and the federal government can be seen from the fact that Söder raised the butcher Alois Rainer to the Minister of Agriculture, which in 2002 made the longest white sausage in the world at 825 meters.

Eating as a politics. There were politicians who are written on the higher level that Habeck and Söder will be denied forever. Of course, you can think of Helmut Kohl first, who liked to have important guests in the Deidesheimer Hof with meat Mayor Klaus Hambel: 40 percent very lean pork, 30 percent diced potatoes, 30 percent pig, salt, pepper, spices. Legend wants Boris Jelzin to give himself the recipe for his cook in the Kremlin, whereas François Mitterrand spurned the meal. Kohl is said to have threatened him if he did not eat, he gets Saarland and Oskar Lafontaine back.

In December 2005, Jacques Chirac, who had liked, also appeased with pork in the dispute over a reform of the European Union en Passant to mention the French nuclear weapons. After a meeting in Hanover, Chirac raved about the “best pisses I’ve ever eaten”. Just a week later, the EU in Nice agreed on a reform with which the east extension was possible.

The fish roll dinner was less successful, which Olaf Scholz organized with Emmanuel Macron and two wives in 2024 at the port of Hamburg. The fermentless pictures that were taken must have perceived the fish bun industry as damaging to business.

And Friedrich Merz? In any case, has the best conditions. The Chancellor could “eat an incredible amount”, government spokesman Stefan Kornelius recently revealed at the government’s open day. In Merz, almost two meters tall, “fits a lot in,” says Kornelius.

Nevertheless, Merz is rather thin, similar to his possible successor Hendrik Wüst. That is why he envies the NRW Prime Minister, sausage friend Markus Söder recently admitted. Wüst could “eat endlessly and always stays slim”. Could of course also be because he is different, uh, eats as Söder.
