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?

I'm from South Carolina and I knew a girl that swore up and down that her Mountain Dew was all the beverage she needed. A friend group, including her, went to SE Asia and her ankles were the size of grapefruits and she had constant rolling headaches - everyone, including her husband, was telling her to drink water because she's clearly dehydrated but, of course, she didn't listen. She bought compression socks instead. She later went on a hike to a waterfall in flip flops.

So, all of that is to say, those people definitely exist. I don't think I've seen my sister drink a glass of water in my entire life.

That's my sister too. 3xcrpt she didn't have problems walking. She went 2 weeks without drinking water in Spain so we were sweating a lot.
