DW still does very limited shortwave in Africa, I guess they'll be happy to take over time/frequency slots but let's face it the amount of people that you can only reach via short wave is dwindling, they mostly switched to satellite. They rather feed into the local FM broadcast network, and of course you can stream over the internet.
We have the Common Agricultural Policy which has the quadruple goals of a) keeping the EU, on aggregate, self-reliant while b) simultaneously stabilising domestic production with subsidies because technically it would be cheaper for many producers to buy land abroad and then import, c) avoid crashing other region's agricultural sector with hyper-efficient production, that's why occasionally there's production caps in place, and finally d) environmental and animal husbandry concerns. You can actually get money for letting land fall fallow and stuff, there's all kinds of fine-grained subsidies when it comes to things like improving barns, it's a whole shebang.
Just checked and eggs were never subject to production quota regulations, so (aside from product safety and animal husbandry rules) it's a pretty open market. The pdf linked there shows that we're massive exporters, notable exception is imports from Ukraine though those are nowhere close to massive. Eyeball-comparing egg production vs. population numbers and assuming every member states eats about as many eggs/capita as the other things look well distributed, DE, FR, NL, PL, ES, and IT over-produce but it's not like the smaller countries would have no capacity at all. Ukraine would actually fit in with that, also big country, also net exporter.
Overall we have exactly one shortfall: Protein crops. Mostly animal fodder in the form of South American soy, the rest, much smaller portion, is Canadian lentils. Not a desirable situation overall but one the one hand it's not critical to feeding people (though there'd suddenly be much less meat) and South America really likes the income so the commission is in no hurry to address it. Canada just simply seems to be made for growing lentils, lots of right climate and soils for it, and that in wide flat areas.

Oh, Finnish, EU, this is going to be easy: We have thousands of small gourmet chocolatiers. The big gourmet ones like Domori generally have a "may contain traces" list, but e.g. Bonnat Chocolatiers should be completely allergen-free. Expect 60-100 Euro/kg but the taste is worth the price (at least once in a while), finding a shop that delivers to Finland shouldn't be too much of an issue.
Regarding sauces: Try gelatin as a thickener, boiling it, as happens naturally with glace, so it doesn't turn into jelly just a thickener. I usually use roux because it's slightly better than plain starch but gelatin, it just coats the whole mouth. Buckwheat should also be an option for noodles. Modern soba noodles generally contain wheat but traditionally they were pure buckwheat, steamed instead of boiled they're too brittle to survive that. Ready-made glass noodles should often be gluten-free, best if fried IMO.
And yes you definitely should start a food blog. Restrictions foster creativity every artist knows that. Probably did my best cooking when keeping pretty much keto for "this looks like really good food" reasons, not even nutrition. You can make a cake out of almond/nut flour, carrots, whipped honey and whipped egg, and it's darn good. Also fills you up after a single slice.

That information is for people with allergies. Not for people without allergies. Which is the distinction that I made, somewhat colloquially (people with allergies will understand the presence of sentiment over lack of nuance), with "running around with an epi pen". "Standing in the middle of a bakery".
Are you desperately trying to be offended on behalf of others.

Sorry if this was offensive, I’m not attacking you, I’m attacking the rhetoric, because I know how much more believable it is than my story, but I also know which one is true.
I mentioned the epi pen not really because of epi pen but to make precisely that gluten insensitivity vs. allergy distinction. People who have an actual allergy know, they aren't the uninformed ones, but I couldn't tell from your original comment. Back to chocolate: You can have a look at premium chocolate makers, bean-to-bar "the only thing but cocoa in here is sugar" type stuff. More expensive, but certainly also damn good, many only make pure chocolate so there's no chocolate with crisps and nuts and raisins line to contend with.
The fad thing correlates, in time, with an increase in use of glyphosate to fast-ripen wheat, btw. I don't think the science is yet in but people with somewhat sensitive stomachs having symptoms when eating traces of glyphosate is not a far-fetched hypothesis, the whole thing is kinda too large to be just a fad.

Unless you are literally running around with an epi pen because miniscule amounts of allergens could kill you you really don't need to worry about those. It basically means "produced in a factory that also produces other stuff". They're not putting things in there, they can't 110% rule out that some flour particles made it over from one production line to another. You get more exposure by standing in the middle of a bakery shop.
How about we introduce export tariffs on eggs instead.
Protip: Don't ignore the "rich" before "white male". Might change things not just a little bit.
Norway occupied parts of Greenland for a while, 1931-1933, I'd call that an act of aggression against Denmark and thus a war even if it was ultimately resolved peacefully and the claim didn't concern the Danish mainlands.
They make no secret out of that, where things get dicey is the role of the Porsche/Piëch clan which ate itself back into the company. That's also where the "close German factories" drive is coming from, they want their dividends so they don't have to sell stock to cover some credit or the other.
Norway and Denmark don't have a land border. Thus including alliances in general the Anglo-Portuguese one dates back to 1373, with only 60 years interruption when Portugal was in dynastic union with Spain which in modern terms could be called an occupation.
...and this isn't just a technicality with both nations being big on seafaring you can consider the water between them a highway, French cannons nonwithstanding.
...the dissertation. Which means years of being at a university, though granted it's unlikely to be 25.
Feminist Hacker Barbie is the proper meme response to that and that's 2014/15, but chuds tend to live under rocks so that might explain it.
Oh they certainly do but the SME lobby tends to have more influence. Repair shops are businesses, too.
And it's not always a good thing, e.g. when it comes to the Supply Chain Act the fat cat lobby was way more sane than the SME one: Nestle doesn't mind monitoring its supply chain for human rights abuses it's quite vertically integrated and the practice is a great defence against lawsuits and also getting fucked over / internal corruption while the SMEs are fearing bureaucracy and costs. It's not like slave farm owners would share their ill-gotten profits with Nestle, they pocket the difference to standard market prices.
there’s only the dealership who can do those repairs.
That's illegal AF in the EU, or at least Germany. They already got into very hot water for trying to price independent repairs out by making their diagnostic software ludicrously expensive.
Expropriating Teslas is possible without a change in the constitution but with a simple law, if they, in the individual case, can be considered means of production (Article 15 GG), though compensation is due. To expropriate under Article 14, you'd have to show that it's for the public good, which would be a very tall order. It would also be possible to extend right-out seizing (without compensation) to traffic misbehaviour other than extreme speeding.
Article 15 has never been applied, though, so besides how generally pointless expropriating Teslas Elon already made his money with is don't expect anything to happen before Berlin expropriates large landlords (>1000 flats) for real. Parties are doing their best to not follow up on the earlier referendum so right now the organisers are busy writing their own law which then can be referendumed into being directly applicable law.
You know what we should lobby for? Putting sanctions on Elon. In lieu of expropriating, that'd be expensive, just make him divest completely.
Behold! Someone with 20/20 hindsight!
The quackness of chiropractors depends on where you are, in many places it's indeed just a type of physiotherapy, or better put you have to be a physio to be a chiropractor. Similarly, in practically all of the world osteopaths are quacks while in the US they're doing evidence-based medicine with particular philosophical accents.
And please don't confuse straight with upright. Once you start measuring with a straightedge you've lost the plot, what you're rather looking for is minimising the sum of squares of muscle tension differences (because tensegrity)... even of the muscles you're not aware of. That's why it's utterly, utterly unlikely that you'll ever get good posture by means of holding any position. Exercise fostering good movement patterns (and with that solid mobility) is the way to do it, look into the direction of callisthenics, internal martial arts, suchlike. Things that are whole movement systems. If in doubt go swimming: Because it's weightless it's pretty much impossible to make anything worse because there's really no way to do it wrong. Short of drowning.
I use dvorak on touchscreen because you get way more chains of left and right thumb alternating.
Block, well, fine. Someone ask this fine person then whether they were born a billionaire or are naive enough to believe they can become one in the face of compounding returns. With grit and hard work and so on. All without stepping on other people, which they seem to be opposed to, just not willing to follow up on.
