Presidents and First Ladies Trivia

[AussieMick]

It was ( I think) Konrad Adenauer.

I also thought of Von Bismark. A fascinating man. Great quotes.
I did try searching on Chancellor and German and Patent. Nope. I thought of Kohl and even Merkel (being a scientist). Didnt think of Willy Brandt. I did try Adenauer but without luck and wasnt very confident anyway, associating him with post war Europe.

When you mentioned 'national food' I got it. Sausages. Adenauer invented a non-meat sausage to help with the shortages of food in WW1. But are you sure he got a German patent ??? The fact that it contained no meat, according to one website, prevented it in Germany. I think (ironically) he got a UK one.
