>I imagine Greece is the worst place for a veggie. I don't think you can actually get it on their menues, except as a garnish.

Greece isn't bad since they eat a lot of cereals and vegetables. But you're right they are puzzled that you would want to eat a series of side dishes instead of the main course.

Italy suprized me that pasta wasn't a main dish, but the dish before the main (meat) course.

Eastern Europe is the worst for a vegetarian. Rarely any vegetables, those that exist are boiled until all nutrients are gone.
