Bedeutung
Explaining your eating habits.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Dutch people are very direct. If you say you are on a diet, they will respect it and stop offering you food. Similar to the Netherlands, but perhaps slightly more emphasis on the social aspect of dining together. The concept of 'dieting' is universal, but the intensity varies by culture.
Keep it simple
You don't need to explain which diet you are on. Just saying 'Ik ben op dieet' is enough.
Be direct
Dutch people appreciate clarity. Don't feel guilty about saying no to food.
