I mean obviously you've never taken the time to explore the US. US food is utterly fantastic.
Our beer is better too.
I've never had a decent American beer. PBR is the closest to decent I've ever had.
I appreciate you admitting you've never stepped foot in an American beer store.
American "beer" lol. Laughs in German.
Edit: Grumpy Muricans, your downvotes only prove my point!
We do dopplebock far better here.
Lol. As if you've ever even tried the local bavarian breweries (the stuff they sell on Oktoberfest doesn't count)! xD
While I haven't lived there I've done several trips through the country. Maybe 7 weeks in total? I'd choose Belgium if I were to choose a regional winner.
So you say the only good beer you got is a beer you copied from us?
What's the difference between the US and a cup of yoghurt?
Yoghurt will have developed a culture after being left alone for 250 years. /j
Edit: Sorry, should have said "what's the difference between white Americans.
You have your yoghurt. I'll take the bbq, whiskey, and our massive dining industry that produces the best food on the planet.
Lol. You can keep your bland Whisky (I'll take Irish, thanks) and your industrially processed junk food, filled to the brim with corn sirup.
Yank here. Most of us were raised on American Exceptionalism which has been pounded into our head since birth, for a few generations. There's no point arguing this, because murica...
American here. I have never seen a fellow American refer to themself as a Yank. I thought that word was reserved for WWII British soldiers.
You never sang "Yankee Doodle," or "Yankee Doodle Dandy" on July 4, even as a kid? I'm southern as can be and these were staples on the Fourth, Memorial and Labor Days, as well as bright red hotdogs, chips (crisps), soda and Budweiser and PBR.
I've heard those songs, but it doesn't mean I call myself a yank in conversation. It sounds antiquated.
Well there you go. I'm an antique!
