Denmark. Home of danish pastry. Kind of. The Danish, one of the States’ most treasured pastries, might easily have been labeled the Austrian but for the Great Danish Pastry Strike of 1850. Seems like the strikers told the bakeries to take a flying suck at a rolling donut (or Danish, if you prefer), so the bakeries imported artisans from Austria. Now that, sports fans, is interesting. If you like Danishes, anyway. Or Denmark.
