Every time I visit the US of A I'm left with the same three questions:
1. Why is there a gap down the sides of the door of every single tolet cubicle? For serious, there is. I don't get it. I thought the desire to defecate in privacy was a universal human trait.
2. Why oh why do Americans not have electric jugs? (aka the humble kettle) I know it isn't a huge tea-drinking culture, but it is a convenience culture and nothing is more convenient than instantly boiled water.
3. What do Americans have against salt 'n' vinegar? In a country absolutely drowning in packaged processed snack foods, it seems insane that the greatest of all flavours be so seldom found.
Do you have a preferred US-only snack??
Reese's miniature peanut butter cups. Which is weird because I don't really like Reese's Pieces. These have a different ratio of chocolate to peanut buttery goodness I guess. I bought a pack to distribute to friends, and opened them when I got back because I had no food in my house. And now I can't stop eating them. In fact, I'm going to go eat one right now.
