Dutch vs International Students in NL — How do your food habits differ?

Discussion

Hey everyone 👋 I’m doing a small university project about how students in the Netherlands make food choices — things like what they eat daily, how they shop, and what they miss or love about Dutch food. I’d really appreciate if you could answer a few short questions 👇

  1. Are you Dutch or an international student (and where are you from)?
  2. What kind of food do you usually eat on a normal study day?
  3. Where do you usually buy your food/snacks (Albert Heijn, Jumbo, Lidl, campus shops, delivery apps, etc.)?
  4. What do you think about Dutch food in general — anything you love or dislike?
  5. Do you miss foods from home? If yes, what’s hard to find here?
  6. How much does price affect your food choices?
  7. Do you look for healthy options, comfort food, or just convenient stuff?
  8. If a Dutch brand created snacks that mix your country’s flavours with Dutch ingredients — would you try it?
