Rarely fried burgers
Prohibited in: New Zealand and parts of the United Kingdom.
Reason: Potential bacteria
The only way to really eat a burger or steak is for it to “run off the plate”, as a true beef fan will tell you. Unfortunately, true carnivores won’t get what they crave when visiting New Zealand or parts of the UK, although many people follow the motto “the bloodier, the better”. As the meat could potentially be contaminated with high levels of bacteria, some countries do not allow beef to be cooked to less than medium-rare. However, it is possible to buy meat from the butcher and prepare the meal at home if you really want a rare steak.

Kebabs
Forbidden in: Venice
Reason: Bad for the cultural image
Many cities have been able to cement their place in the world of food by offering a wide range of food from all over the world. Ultimately, the gastronomic scene gives a city its distinctiveness. Kebabs are the most appreciated dinner in most European cities, but not in Venice. Kebabs are cheap, easy to prepare and, frankly, it doesn’t matter how the meat tastes if you add enough sauce. This is precisely why kebabs have been banned from eating food in Venice. The low-quality fast food is considered to be damaging to the city’s image.
