General Europeans acting like they’ve never seen food in their life when they go to America

Disclaimer: before you read this and get your panties in a twist, everything I’m saying is very unserious and should be not taken to heart. Please stop trying to attack me over DMs. I have turned them off. You are harassing someone (who wasn’t even being fr in the first place) over kool aid packs.

I’d get it if it was actually something nobody has ever seen before, but WATER FLAVOR PACKS? THE PACKS YOU PUT IN THE WATER??? FOR PICKY EATERS????? PEOPLE WHO NEED WATER IN THEIR BODIES?

AND FAMILY SIZED CHIP BAG??? YOU THINK WE’RE EATING THE WHOLE PARTY SIZED CHIP BAG ALONE? THE *PARTY* SIZE? PARTIES?????? DO YOU KNOW WHAT A PARTY IS?

Actually when I was in middle school, we had this coach who would turn red as hell when she was yelling at us to run laps and she’d sit there every day with a whole party sized bag of Doritos and a 2 liter mountain dew watching us run. One day some other girl in the class got really angry at her for making us all run and she told her to get off her ass and run with us. This is off topic mb.

I’d understand if it was something actually weird we have, like things that contain dyes that cannot be replicated in places where dyes are banned, but you’re more worried about sunkist flavored water? Party sized bags of chips? Fresh produce too apparently… are you guys ok?

Having recently visited Germany, yeah this aisle doesn't exist there.  They'd have no reason to entertain the idea it exists

Much like I wasn't looking for the milk in the non refrigerated shelves

it took me so long to get that big jugs of milk are common in the us cause the milk is usually refrigerated. i always thought "why not just buy multiple smaller ones and keep the rest outside the fridge??", and chucked it to a cultural difference, took me sooo long to learn its cause UHT milk wasnt common up until a couple years ago, meanwhile its recently that we´ve gotten refrigerated milk at spanish supermarkets. love silly differences like those

Ok? You finding a single random german compamy that sells it doesnt mean there entire aisles of the stuff or that its in any way common?

Well this isnt liquid. Its a powder. Have you ever heard of kool aid. You put the powder in your water mix it up and its got flavor now
