Really upset, as an American, to learn a gallon of ice cream and family sized bags of chips aren't single serving products. I thought it was in our Constitution that they must be consumed in 1 sitting.
Bro, I'm only allowed like 4 scoops of icecream, like if you're going to eat a whole gallon, it's because you're stress eating. (To clarify, I am not calling out the joke, I am simply saying that eating a whole gallon of ice cream is stress eating.)
these people remind me of the high school mean girls that purposefully ignore the obvious stuff and choose one miniscule thing to hold above our heads for all four years of school

On the ramen topic, In America we have a really bad problem with poverty. And ramen is cheap here, so a lot of people can only afford to eat things like ramen.
It's similar in Japan and other places over in Asia, you can always find super cheap, cup noodles for when you're in a pinch. It also looks like they have *better* convenience store food though, not just fried chicken, pizza, and subs lol since less people cook at home over there. Ramen is great, rich or poor
Not these Europeans telling on themselves that they've never eaten fruit. Also, that woman saying "go make your own croissants" is so frustrating. Real croissants take around _three days_ to make because of how you have to prepare and cool the dough. NO ONE is making fresh croissants at home.
not to mention the sheer amount of butter you need to make them. i know it's not the case in every state but as someone who's in California, where the butter is anywhere between $5-$7 dollars for the cheap stuff, not only do i not have the patience but i also don't have the money to make them lol
@@krispyaudios3892 Yeah no kidding. And you need _good_ butter to get good croissants. You can't just buy any butter willy nilly. It's just not a practical thing to tell people to make from scratch!
I made croissants from scratch once for the experience (and I was a croissant fiend as a kid lol). They didn't even turn out as good as the pre-made store bakery ones, and I'm a fairly good baker 😭 I'll just get a pack from Costco for $12 thanks 😂
Also, she's most definitely a hater of disabled and poor people and the products they buy. You know she's the type to look at an electric can opener and start whining about lazy people not wanting to open their cans on their own anymore. "Screw arthritis! You're just lazy!" I bet she saw the cut avocado pieces and complained about the plastic and lazy people too. "I don't care that removing an avocado pit can be hard for people with mobility issues! They should stop being lazy and just risk getting injured like normal people don't have to worry as much." Gosh, I bet she freaks out when she sees carton bottles of 100% egg whites. "Why not just crack a dozen eggs, and risk failing to separate a few?" Because not everyone has the time or energy? Someone baking a lot of cakes and pies would appreciate having part of the work done. Just because they themselves don't see a use for it yet, they think it's unnecessary and useless for everyone else.
Well, I am from the UK, however I have many Jamaican Seasonings that I use for my Chicken, but maybe it's because I'm a quarter Jamaican, hoping at least some European people know about season.
My word! As an European who is also 16 years old, I felt second hand embarrassment throughout this whole video. Like this specific people in these TikToks really thought they are doing the continent of Europe a favour when in reality, they are making non-Americans look like idiots 💀
I actually like the mini size packaging from Europe, from snacks, to canned tuna to body deodorant, something I didn't saw in my travels to USA. So, for a loner traveler used to small 1 person size stuff, USA can be a little shocking, but expected.
I think its like giving them back what they gave us. They also come to european countries bitching about our stuff so we do the same. I mean many americans still think europe is a fkn country. im not even joking. I even had a discussion with an american who said the holocaust is fake. They make fun of our food because its not sweet enough ... uh yeah sorry karen but our food has strict laws and isnt full of sugar
Why is our fruit so colorful? Very simple, for you mooks who don't know how plants work, sunlight effects the brightness and color of fruit. The places in the US that grow fruit tend to get a lot of sunlight, rather than being overcast for half the year as those of you in the UK are so used to.
10:53 Eggs from America are thoroughly cleaned before being sold, which also scrubs off the protective layer which prevents bacteria and other nasties from getting into the egg itself, and therefore need to be refrigerated. Eggs from Great Britain don’t go through this process of thorough cleaning, hence why they do not require refrigeration.
I can confirm this as someone who has chickens, we just wash the eggs under hot water for 1 minute to clean the bacteria off and is safe to eat! They also taste better than the store bought in my opinion!
Oh, and they created the most unhealthy thing outside of alcohol known as Red Bull. I can't drink it. It gives me an upset stomach and for some reason, makes my teeth tingle.

As an American I have 1776 reasons to not give a f*ck about what the UK thinks about us. Though it really is creepy how obsessed they are with us. 🤷🏻♀️
It’s not just the UK though it’s all of (western) Europe, Germans especially for some reason, I don’t know why they act like there isn’t bread in Aldi there definitely is
@@KtT-sn8cythe "bread" section definetely is there but it is like 1/100th of what you see in american stores and the bagged bread is called toast, not bread because it's the sole use of it here. Almost every grocery store bakes the bread fresh here and the selection is huge. We love and respect our bread.
@@areuokayinthere this is common all around Europe (atleast where I’ve been: Denmark, UK, Ireland, Netherlands, France) even Australia I’ve seen bakery sections in large grocery stores. Honestly not sure about the US but I wouldn’t be surprised if there was the same thing. Sometimes people want bagged bread and sometimes people want the fresh stuff, these videos for some reason only portray the worst
@@areuokayinthere also there’s nothing wrong with having a large choice range in what sort of bagged bread you want, sometimes you want variety with the sort of toast you like, even in the US the bread is primarily used for toast
as an italian i cringed so much💀 like we actually HAVE pickles in jars, boquets, medicine, family-sized things and we have fruit ECXACTLY like that. where on earth do you live if your local grocery store doesn't have those things😭😭😭ALSO i could literally go at the grocery store in my pajamas and no one would notice or care
@@s0ci4l.rej3ct_ dove abito io ci sono piccole sezioni per i farmaci, ovviamente cose leggere tipo nurofen o tachipirine, però boh forse non stanno in tutta italia
Blud I'm also italian and I've seen * giant stores.GIANT.around...10 or more kilometers² in surface area * I have seen even more bizzare foods; boney jones: a candy Skeleton. * literally...American and Chinese and Japanese food too
And probably live in the capital city too, when I’ve visited like more than 10 countries, it’s always very small shops and the big ones are usually on the outskirts
We have them to I only remember the name of one of them traider Joe their food are over priced you're better of doing gardening or small scale farming.
I think the big issue is supermarkets vs markets. Aussie, Americans and Canadians all use supermarkets, Europeans rarely use them because of the space they take so they're left with small groceries and cornerstores that fit the native environment reducing the available choices.
@@yesplatinum7956 i think that's probably because. I too live in a small town and they don't have party sized food, but when i go to a near big city they usually have it
As a European, I apologize, not everyone is like this. It’s just the really big minority of us that make us all look stupid and make us look like hypocrites.
As a European, I'm dissapointed in the people that are mad at family/party sized stuff. It's called FAMILY/PARTY SIZED FOR A REASON! They're also specifically only paying attention to the bigger sizes, but not the normal sizes. 🤦🏽
I live in the US and they almost always stamp the words "Party size" on those big bags of potato chips, cake mixes, snack mixes, etc. If it's a large size, they love to put those words on the box!
7:16 Convenience stores in japan and korea literally have ramen and noodles packaged, Like it's accessible. Cheap. Not just in east asian countries, But literally all of Asia. Do europeans catch their own fish? Do they butcher their own meat or something and cook things entirely from scratch, Do they still use a bonfire to cook things? I'm confused
The ramen bit made me roll my eyes cause there are so many videos of people going to a convient in Japan and showing off the massive variety. Like that section was tiny XD
Yeah idk what their problem is. It’s like America lives rent free in their heads. I certainly don’t think about Europe every single day. And I also don’t judge their culture and customs because they are different countries…like duh…these people make zero sense.
@@fjkfkfkf lmao as if the word “y’all” isn’t apart of the American southern dialect. Y’ALL sound ignorant and racist, but we’re uncivilized? Maybe you should learn about other cultures besides your own before trying to berate countries you know nothing about.
As an European, I’m really ashamed of how many European tiktokers act like total pick me(s), We have a lot of unhealthy drinks in Scotland, and Europe, so if you don’t wanna buy it, walk away from it. Don’t just go there to take pictures of soda and crisps, of COURSE if you’re in the soda aisle, of COURSE there’s gonna be soda, not a freaking donkey or something. 😭💀 I’m truly sorry for how weird the European tiktokers are acting.
So specifically American eggs, our chickens usually aren't vaccinated against salmonella, so the eggs are sterilized and as a result need to be refrigerated. This is coming from someone who sells eggs and owns chickens btw!
It won't last lol. Once Trump becomes President again the rest of the Western World won't shut up about Americans being dumb even though Trump is definitely the better option.
As a European we have almost all of this stuff. Also! Let’s not pretend we’re way healthier, because tell me why a whole aisle for bread is too much but a almost two aisles for alcohol is okay? (Probably mostly wine too btw)
The thing is here in Europe we have all the sections every grocery store does, but i live in a relatively small country and most shops are not that huge. So it's not that were shocked at that there's food in the aisle. It's more the amount of options you can choose and the size of the grocery store itself that shocks us. But these people on tiktok are acting a bit too over the top. Love from the Netherlands🇳🇱
I am a European person and except for the party size bags I have seen everything showed on this video: pickles in a jar (where would they be if they weren't in a jar?), flavored water, big packs of cans of soda, syrups, entire sections for bread, eggs in freezers, yoghurts with unhealthy things added, medicine and yes, even clothes on the grocery store. This is just what a grocery store looks like ON EVERY CORNER OF THIS PLANET.
So true. I've been to grocery stores in western Europe and there is nothing unusual about the packaging. The only exception is a Swiss grocery store has a LOT more cheese and they sell milk in hermetically sealed cartons on shelves, not in refrigerators.
@@poolhalljunkie9 And lose TWICE. People always forget about the War of 1812 where they came back for round two to try and take us back again. Besides successfully burning down the White House, they failed spectacularly in that war too, and the lyrics for our national anthem came out of the conflict. Without the Brits unashamedly going for round two, Francis Scott Key would have never penned the words: “the land of the free and the home of the brave.”
@@MiMi_MoMoFalse. The British did not attack America with the intent or reconquering the territory they lost in 1783 with the end of the Revolutionary War. The Empire lacked the numbers, finances and morale to attempt. They were at war with America in 1812 over a few concerns with the main one being over America's very rapid, bloody westward expansion and the fear that their Canadian territory would be at risk. Keep in mind, it was America who declared War on Britain in 1812. And taking into account the above, Britain did not lose the war of 1812. If anything, the result was a stalemate if not a win for Britain.
It's so true as an American living in Europe. There's been so many uncomfortable times after sitting down at a café and the strangers around me find out I'm an American. They turn the conversations to talk shit about the US. Meanwhile, they would have a heart attack if someone would so boldly discuss disrespect for just simply existing nearby. But apparently, Americans are the rude ones 🤦♀️
its part of their culture. they believe themselves to be the perpetual owners of the earth. they see america (honestly some truth to this part) as their free labor colony thats only there for them to exploit for wealth and entertainment. remember, no one in history will ever kill more innocent people than europeans have. they killed more indians in india during ww2 than the total amount of people germany killed throughout the war. yet somehow, only the people who died in europe was a tragedy to them..... they really dont try to hide their eugenicist ideals. they bleed out into their economic and educational models.
Jar peaches are crack cocaine. The pre-cut makes them perfect for inhaling at terminal velocity. Reserved for road trips with friends, stopping at random highway rest areas in the middle of a windmill farm or desert liminal space. I don’t make the rules.
They're perfect for a quickie peach cobbler. Or topping your pancakes/waffles with. I'll even put them on my ice cream - which is actually frozen vanilla yogurt.
8:09 nah I was already annoyed by this video but now they be dissin my child hood snack that I still eat today we got a problem now random TikTok WE GOT A PROBLEM NOW!
It kinda bugs me that some Europeans are perpetuating these bothersome stereotypes that we're a backwards neck of the woods in the middle of nowhere and we have never seen a supermaket before. It's simple: where there's capitalism, there's loads of stuff. We just don't have the space to make our stores that big, so we just make multiple floors. There are so many fascinating differences in cultures around the world to talk about. Why do people feel the need to make up stupid new ones?
fr also it's not like us little wee minimun wage working citizens have any say over how this sh*t goes, the government does, yea we vote but we can't like easily change how our FDA and all that stuff works. It's not exactly our choice American food situations are F'd lmao
5:17 as someone who is gluten free this is so helpful because it helps us now if it’s not, and there’s some stores that do have a full aisle of just glam free stuff it’s amazing.
Why are europeans so obsessed with Americans? I never hear Africans talking about Americans like this I never hear Australians talking about Americans like this it seems to be a mainly European thing. At least at this degree of course everybody talks about every country, but not everybody talks about one specific country to this degree, unless they are utterly obsessed
Going to costco and being suprised that things are large, is like going to the beach and being suprised there is sand.... what did you expect to find there!? Its a bulk store intentionally to save money
I mean it’s not like Costco doesn’t exist in Europe , they have Costco all over . So either this person who made this TikTok has never ever stepped foot in a Costco, never heard of Costco or they’re just a plain idiot.
They act like they don’t have their own version of Costco. They’re proving that they don’t go outside unless it’s to dunk on other countries on how they run things based on their culture and still complain when they do it presumably they way they want it to. It’s like they can’t make up their minds and can only complain because their lives are so depressing and boring that that’s the only thing they can do
Another thing that those Europeans PRETEND to don't know it's that maybe there are people who buy those family size packages and other big portions only for them alone, but that doesn't mean they eat them completely in one sitting, someone can buy a entire bucket of icecream for one person and eat like a cup of icecream per week
“Why treat yogurt like it’s ice cream?” Because yogurt is healthier than ice cream and it could be a good replacement if you’re trying to make some better choices.
@@litttleredpanda1497 I just eat the dairy and make it future me's problem. Hell, most of the time it just gives me bubble guts. Then again, so does the actual lactose-free milk my family gets.
The irony of a Brit complaining about sauces to flavor food. Maybe if they had more sauce options in the UK, British food wouldn’t get crapped on so much. /snark
i’m british and we have an insane amount of sauces though and entire supermarket aisles dedicated to mexican food and sauces etc. the people in this video are delusional
There's also a big selection of sauces in Belgian grocery stores. And a quarter of it is different varieties of mayonnaise. Gotta have something to put on the frites!
The true irony is that as clearly as OP stated this was /s and folks are defending their food anyway. I'm American. Yes, we know we consume crap food. Most of us do it as an occasional indulgence, the media has painted it as though we live on McDonalds. 😂😂😂
We do actually have many sauce options and have a isle have doesn't just have English sauce so you sound as stupid as us saying oh wow this is in a supermarket because you've clearly never tried are food
I stopped listening to people bashing America when I started seeing them mocking us for using utensils. Like what are you people eating with? Also like how people don't do research. I can't tell you how many times I see someone saying our healthcare is employer based. I've always had health insurance and at one point it was free but I've only had one job that offered it. Infact our healthcare has similar concepts to the Swiss or Netherlands model. I also like how you show examples of their ridiculousness. I saw a video of a guy from the U.K who was in a gun shop in America complaining about all the guns, like dude it's a gun store what do you expect? I looked up pictures of gun stores in the U.K and guess what they had walls lined with guns all the same.
I liked the visit to the Woolworths. Besides being amusing, I've just never seen a non-American grocery store. Just seeing it was fun for some reason, lol.
This is why us Americans love you Aussies. You guys are grounded and close to us in culture. You freaking understand the idea of people aren't just a small unit lmfao.
@@julesoxana i am. It doesn't matter where an icon is from, just matters how popular they are in a concentrated space. Majority of American icons aren't even American or American born.
I'm American and I had a couple of European exchange students. They only ate junk food and they ate so much more than my husband and I that our grocery bill more than doubled. Yet they complained about portion sizes being too big. Actually, they complained about everything in general about American culture. I couldn't believe it. They signed up to spend a year in a different country and did no research about it. 🤣
I'm curious if they gained weight, but don't share if you're not comfortable. Maybe there were so much junk food options that they had trouble controlling themselves. I've heard of Europeans gaining weight after coming to the US because they are eating the same things they used to eat but it's more processed and stuff here.
@@allison5169Well, they only lasted about a month. One started trouble, the other participated. The trouble maker went home and the other got moved to a different family and school district. I provided healthy meals for them, but they only wanted junk food. They wasted most of the fresh produce I bought. One girl wouldn't even touch fruits or vegetables. None of their habits were healthy. I should point out that these 2 were high school students from the Western half of Europe. I have also hosted 4 different college students who came to America for internships. That program worked mostly with Eastern Europeans. I'm not sure if it was because they were adults and here to work or if Eastern Europeans are just more agreeable, but they were friendlier and much more polite. They ate healthy meals and I don't want to comment on their weight, but I will say that the work they did was stressful.
Hmm, Europeans come to another country, do no research, and complain the whole time before getting kicked out? Isn't that what they accuse us of doing? They really do just be telling on themselves in these videos lol
13:38 as a British person, HAVE YOU NEVER BEEN TO A SAINSBURY’S OR M&S?! im sure there are others as well! some stores multitask!! it’s literally a SUPERmarket because it has many different things
As an European who has left Europe only twice in my life, we have ALL OF THOSE things if not more of it on our grocery stores, like if those tiktokers are complaining about family size chips, yogurt with m&ms or sections for bread, they clearly have never been to ANY grocery store, not even in Europe
the fact that if they did this to any other country the internet would be all over it trying to cancel them for being culturally insensitive.... but if its america its ok??
Other countries don't seem to like the USA. They must have forgotten that every country has its fair share of foolish individuals. (YES that includes their own-) Honestly, they don't even have great justifications to target all of the US. It's stereotypical to say that all Americans eat unhealthy and lack intelligence when that's really not the case. Europeans need to stop obsessing over the US-
As a europian, i can confirm the ppl making those vids were isolated from the outer world as a child. I was so shocked when some ppl say these things. We do have everything in those videos in the local Morrison down the road.
As a half european-asian *EVERYONE HAS ALL OF THESE THINGS IN THERE LOCAL SUPERMARKETS SO WHY TF ARE SOME PEOPLE SHOCKED THE HAVE THE SAME THINGS IN A OTHER COUNTRY😮😮😮😮*
Im german. I have to say we dont really have big ahh family portions and our "normal" portions are def smaller. The whole load of product per shelf is also bigger in the us and australia but thats just because there are way more people i would assume. Germany has much smaller stores and shelfs. But the rest idk. We have sweets, soda, and cake mixes, funny snacks and pickles in jars (Gewürtzgurken). So why exactly are people acting like we live in 1760 or sth in Europe 💀💀
Main difference Europe has walkable areas so they buy food on a more daily basis. Because they don’t need to drive everytime they want to go to the grocery store Americans and from what I can tell of this video Australians don’t have that luxury and therefore just buy a few weeks worth of grocery’s about once or twice a month and call it a day. So if you’re buying groceries daily I supposed bulk food would look wild to you. Additionally I don’t think “buy everything in once place” stores are all that popular over there due to zoning laws and what not? But you would think the first response would be “oh how convenient” not “omg flowers in a food store, how kooky”
as an American the only way I’ve found that you can fight back against all the hate is to laugh at it. I genuinely appreciate when people see through the cherry picked videos it’s not okay to bully any other ethnicity or cultures but when it’s AMERICANS it’s fine 🥰🥰
yeah they think bullying someone for "being in the top position" is ok just because they're on top when its never ok to bully anyone no matter how well off they are. i mean i do hate the 1% because they're rich and are just oblivious to how real life works but thats diff. i dont bully them or anything, i just ignore them and dont listen to them when they speak lol. to be fair too though america does like to put its nose in others business which i think is wrong AF, we shouldn't be doing that.
I don’t think Europeans got the memo about not bullying other cultures, because the way they talk about Africans and Arabs (even the liberals) is like they’re actual animals. Talking to Europeans about those groups will make you feel like you’ve been transported back in time to the days of slavery, colonization and experimentation on black people
As a german-american who's spent plenty of time in both countries I can tell you there's a lot bigger of a bread selection in europe than there is in America so I'm not sure what they were on about there. Oh wait they were probably british
@@oceansidez4741 Yup, we have many great options, with different varieties of whole grain and mixed grain breads. The only thing that shcoked me was Hayley showing gluten free bread in what apparently was the regular bread isle. At least in the supermarkets I frequent here in Germany, gluten free products are in their own separate aisle alongside the vegan and lactose free options, I assume to minimize any risk of cross-contamination, since not all bread packaging here is completely air tight.
@@beardiemom that’s really interesting! I’m Australian so I’m used to what she shows at my supermarkets, and I’m happy to know that Germany keeps everything seperate, because it does sound more safe for customers
@@beardiemom Here in the U.S., there used to be an aisle for gluten free, dairy free, vegan, weird grain, no preservative etc. foods. I always thought it was so that people who cared about that stuff could easily find their items all in one spot. They've reorganized the store I regularly shop at to intermingled them with the "regular" products because more people are buying them now. It broadens the market for them too. I don't care about any of those things, but I grew up eating tofu and now I don't have to go to the dairy-free dairy refrigerator. It's just there with the other cold products.
I know American culture is different but in stores it’s just not. Simple, idk why European kiddos are whining about the most stupidest things. Have they ever been to a European store before it’s the exact same???
As a European that has been to America, i wasn't suprised by the supermarkets there since, we have the almost exact same supermarkets, i seriously don't know what do these poeple expect from American stores 💀
Yeah i'm from a small country and we have almost every single thing mentioned there 💀 The only difference maybe is the size of the store but that's just natural atp
@@oqp489like fr, I'm from Portugal and the nearest grocery store to me literally has a whole bakery + an even bigger bread section than they showed, tf are these people on about?
to be fair, where i live we don´t have the family size in regulare store, except in xxl promotions a few times a year. And the amount of different candys, Sodas and Chips is insane for a single store. The store size is enormous, how long take it americans to buy only a few things for a day? I don't go to the big stores, which would be considered as small in the US, if I only need a few items.
I love how they just question how large servings are: like my siblings and I will not last two days with a small bag of goldfish instead of a family size bag, same thing goes for chips. Like, the size of the portions is for FAMILIES and PARTIES, like ???
Yeah japan made instant noodles as a counter effect to the famine WWII caused and then they sent it all over the world its not an american creation@@thesupervideogamenerdmore3171
As a European, most stores have aisles for everything, if it's a smaller store everything is put into 'bakery', 'freezer', 'fridge' sections and they're there. So all those tik toks are bs we have family/party sizes too, we have a sweet and chocolate section, we have big fruit and we have unhealthy things. We have pickles, we have yoghurt, we have biscuits, we have pretty healthy things, we have eggs, we have literally everything they're ranting about. Some people should try to stop speaking out their assholes.
The person in the COSTCO is the funniest shit. It’s a warehouse. You’re gonna find food AND medicine. Also wasn’t expecting the Skyrim reference and I’m all here for it
“Why is your fruit so bright?” Is your fruit white? Is it paler than me when I don’t see the sun for months? 😭 I’m not even like angry, im just laughing at how ridiculous these people are, and they call the US stupid 😭
I'm european and honestly instead of being outraged by the amount of processed food I feel a bit jealous about the variety of different products ;pp. IT'S LIKE HEAVEN!!!
as a European (Romanian to be exact) person, this is hilarious. Ive been in multiple European countries and: kids everywhere eat those mm yoghurt things, we stock our eggs in the fridge, we put our pickles in a jar, we also have different sections, we have oranges, candies, have family sized groceries and also have ice cream in buckets. The only thing different is that we have different stores where we find ramen, I've personally never found ramen in a grocery store. We usually find those in special "asian" stores
Yeah as an American we have Asian import stores too but Walmart is like Costco but not a warehouse I think my mom said it was a department store i don’t really remember but it basically has everything in it that you’ll need
... What the fuck are you SUPPOSED to be buying pickles in? I'm sorry, there's no way this isn't rage bait. Unless I'm just a fucking idiot, pickles are pickled IN JARS. That's just, like, objectively correct. I cannot imagine what else they would package pickles in outside of the USA.
As an European I can agree with you, people flip out for dumb reasons :))) We also have XXL packs, jarred pickles, yogurts with m&ms, HUGE cartons of eggs in the fridge and so much more. Them people really don't leave the house
I'm from the UK and literally every supermarket is like this! There's always a candy aisle, a soda aisle, a chips aisle, a bread aisle, etc. and ice cream often-times does come in big boxes and sometimes these stores even sell clothes and stationary too. It's not an exclusively American thing. I am so sorry for these people who shame American stores for doing literally the same thing that our UK stores do. I can't speak for every European country though, but I'm pretty sure a lot of countries have the same supermarket set-up as America. They're set up like that because that system (having an aisle for each type of product so you can easily find what you're looking for) works. It's just the most logical way to set up a large store or supermarket.
I also learned they're set up like this to trigger "impulse buying". As you're walking to the item you're looking for you're able to see the shelves clearly so you can go "oh I also want/need this" as you go to said destination
@@KtT-sn8cyIreland is seen as a positive country in Europe.The uk is the most hated country in Europe after Russia.The uk is seen as little America for negative reasons not positive
I think most foreigners fail to consider how big the US actually is. We have big cities where you have public transportation and corner grocery stores that are a dime a dozen offering less variety and size options but we also have big superstores. The superstores offer more size and variety to cater to people living within the city limits and people who live in more rural areas where there is no public transportation and quick stops at the store isn't feasible. I live about a 35-40 minute drive away from my local Walmart. It is an actual trip to go into town. My husband and I have 2 SUV's. I shop for groceries once a week for my family of 4. The larger items are what I normally buy because I want to get enough in one visit to last all week long and I don't have to go anywhere but home after work. I work 9 hour days. When you tack on the extra hour-hour and a half drive time, that is a 10-10 1/2 hour work day. Once I get home I have to cook, take care of and get my kids to bed, get my own shower, take care of a few chores and head to bed just to get up after 5-6 hours of sleep to do it all over again. My days are normally 17-19 hours long. Buying in bulk saves me time during my work week. I don't understand why this concept of convenience is so strange.
"the ramen isn't authentic" instant noodles: invented in japan and sold by japanese companies that do not advertise cup noodles or maruchan as having the same vibe as an authentic ramen shop but rather the very successful concept of "i have a 5 minute lunch break and i need to microwave a meal and eat it rapidly/i have come home from a 10 hour shift and need fast nutrients before i collapse" lmao. also the idea that anyone's thinking the best place to find ANY "authentic" asian food would be walmart. this person did a great job finding things to pretend to be bothered by for engagement. and hey it worked i'm actively engaging. history of instant noodles is a fun brief wikipedia rabbithole btw
There are brands that are Asian and due to the popularity of products in the US, have manufacturing here. Nongshim is a Korean company headquartered in Seoul, but has a CA plant.
Idk why but I feel like these people are all super privileged. It’s not an “ew American” thing it’s an “ew poor/middle class” but because they’ve never been to a middle class store in Europe (and America really doesn’t have that many “fancy” grocery stores) They’re assuming that all this random stuff they’re complaining about is only in America
I'm from Poland, and sure, we have the same things... But just the amount is different. In America you have a whole aisle of bread-Here, at least at the shops that I go to, you get just a few options. What I mean is-I'm surprised America has, for ex. An Aisle full of bread or soda's that seems to be long af-But it's not negative surprised, it's more-so "oh, wow, they have that? Cool." I think some Europeans are just ☠️ Dense sometimes, honestly.. But not everyone is like that, and I dislike the fact that we're suddenly being generalized as assholes because of those stupid tiktoks 💀
The egg thing makes since a bit, with farm fresh eggs that have never been refrigerated you can get away without putting them in the fridge just fine for a week or so. I've ate them like that plenty enough times and never have I once gotten sick
The hell? I just returned from grocery shopping in an average nordic hypermarket and the shelves look the exact same other than the brands. This is just mean for the sake of being mean.
I’ve traveled quite a bit and studied abroad in Asia and grocery stores are kinda the same everywhere. The main difference is the type of stuff they have rather than the category. Like a different selection of candy or pasta or something
I have a theory that this is more of a privilege thing than an “ew Americans” thing. I’m guessing that a lot of these people are privileged Europeans who only shop at “rich people grocery stores” and since the US doesn’t have many of those, they’re brains are making the false connection that only US grocery stores looks like this
