Take a guess: how many Easter eggs do residents eat on average per year? Are there more than twenty, fifty or eighty? If you gave the first answer, you’re good.

A few years ago, HEMA researched how many Easter eggs residents ate on average per year. That turned out to be – drum roll – 42 Easter eggs per person to go. A little calculation teaches us that then .417.417 (42 x 417.243 residents) Easter eggs each year are eaten in The Hague.
We do make a major comment here, because the study looked at the average of all South Hollanders combined. No distinction has been made in terms of age, gender or other characteristics; everyone is included in the count.
Fun fact: South Hollanders eat a lot more Easter eggs than, for example, Flevolanders, who ‘only’ 35 Easter eggs per year. The average for the whole of the Netherlands is 42.
Tempting sweets
Professor of Nutrition and Health Jaap Seidell explains to RTL Nieuws why people are so fond of eggs: “Easter eggs are incredibly tempting because they are small snacks that you can easily eat in between. In addition, they are cleverly packaged. Because they all have different colors and taste different, you actually want to taste all the colors, so you eat more of them.”
Are you hungry yet? Then here are some tips:
In almost all Hague supermarkets you can now score Easter eggs. Do you want a special copy? Then you can go to The Hague chocolatiers or candy shops rightly so. Oh, and don’t forget the Hague bakers not!
- Or visit, for example, HEMA and Kruidvat.
