If you order it anyway, say this (German)
Brotzeitplatte, bitte. Streng ohne Brot, Brezeln oder Brötchen. Sind die Essiggurken und der Senf zuckerfrei?
Brotzeitplatte, please. Strictly no bread, pretzels, or rolls. Are the pickles and mustard sugar-free?
Watch out for
Many processed cold cuts contain hidden sugars, dextrose, or starches. Some mustards are high in sugar. Pickles might be brined in sugary solutions. The biggest risk is accidentally consuming the accompanying bread.
