Don't take this the wrong way - I am a big fan of many aspects of American culture. Some amazing music comes out of the USA. Great guitars, amps, some incredible people, I have been there many times. But American food? Wow. I have eaten well in some places - New Orleans was my favourite, and I have had great meals in San Fran and NYC too. But some of the stuff which passes for food in the USA would be illegal where I live! I remember being able to get a great hamburger in NY many years ago, but now they're all just mush. Too much sauce and no fight in the bread.
For food I go to Europe and Asia. For music I go to Europe and the USA, Australia and New Zealand.
When my son was younger we went to a supermarket in Lake Placid. We love visiting supermarkets wherever we go because they can tell you a lot about a place. Well everything in this Lake Placid supermarket was huge! We'd never seen anything like it. Could you get a snack size, um, snack? NOOOO!!! The smallest packet of chips or Cheetohs was the size of a king size pillow. I've never seen packets so huge. Bottles of soda we would probably call barrels back home. We wanted to get some chips for our son but the smallest packet was a life-time supply. We were travelling so it would have been excess baggage. No wonder you guys need such big houses. You need them if you have more than one flavour of anything!
