That's how I remember it from last time. The website of our city council also says that you have to bring a picture with you. Of course, some city administrations (@Maja80) may have different procedures.
Years ago, they banned vending machines from our citizens' offices. At the time, photographers who were making less turnover in their stores and were claiming that they were competing against the rules or something.....they had no possibility of renting a store within sight of the citizens' office and selling their photos there 😏
The photo boxes have disappeared from the offices.
a few moments later 😂
After that, every supermarket in the vicinity of a citizens' office suddenly had a photo booth on the premises 😜
I don't get that comment. Do you always eat everything straight away when you buy something? Well, I always get by longer with most things.
No, but I eat it very rarely. The quantities on offer here easily last me 1 year.
Nothing to do with dieting or anything like that. Even before my diet, I really rarely ate potato chips or anything like that. My main problem was rather fast food^^
Just as an example: before the diet I ate 2-3 packs of Fonzies (Italian corn chips) every 2-3 weeks, as they were also available at Edeka. That wasn't the case for 20+ years. You could only find them in Italian stores or buy them in Italy. So I had a craving for them and treated myself to them. But after 2-3 packs I was fed up with them
I still take a critical view of such quantities. It's not about the dose, but about the routine. You should rarely indulge in something like that. But it is often suggested otherwise, e.g. Knoppers. We all know the advertising slogan "Half past 9 in the morning in DE". It suggests that son should be consumed regularly (as a snack or breakfast substitute, so to speak). Do you get full on one? I've always eaten 2. Have you ever seen how many kcal a Knoppers has? 215 kcal. So with 2 pieces you've practically eaten as many kcal as a good meal, but you're hardly satiated at all. So: every now and then it's okay, but with the quantities involved, you tend to reach for something like this more often.

I'm not saying the deal is bad, but rather suboptimal ^^ Ultimately, it depends on you. Many can be disciplined and still watch what they eat. I wouldn't know if I could. When I still had chocolate bars etc. I used to reach for them out of "boredom". I never ate a whole pack, but I did eat 1-2 pieces.

I'll read it later, I don't have the energy at the moment Having a cold in this weather is really not cool ^^
I see, so it seems to have been arbitrary. Something like that should be clearly regulated. Either everyone is stressed or no one is.

Nothing against a pack of chocolate/chips whatever, but with the amount you get diabetes on top of that
