How Dutch Are you?
(THE QUIZ)

We all know the typical clichés about Dutch people: they eat hagelslag for breakfast, kroketten for lunch and stamppot for dinner. They're unusually tall and have a super-human ability to ride a bicycle while talking on a phone and carrying 3 kids and 2 bags of groceries. They're super direct and have no fear of telling it how it is, whether or not you want to hear it. They speak in wacky expressions, complain endlessly about the weather, and are amongst the happiest people on Earth.

But the burning question is: How Dutch are YOU? Take the quiz and find out!
