  • I’ve lived off and on outside the US for a good.paet of my adult life and I used to gripe about what I couldn’t find but now embrace the differences.

    Nothing open on Sunday? I’ll plan better or go without.

    Fruits and vegetables taste amazing? Fantastic, when they are out of season, I’ll wait for their return instead of settling for beautiful but tasteless out of season bullshit.

    No buttermilk? ok…gotta find an alternative.

    One of the most interesting things I have found here is that premade foods (think chicken nuggets, pot stickers etc.) are absolutely terrible and I think it’s because they’re not allowed to fill them with so many chemicals, flavor additives, etc. So in that regard the US food has an advantage…but that’s one they can have.




  • As a former Seattle chef this is fantastic!

    my ranch, though, is more basic but still fucked people up (fight me!) here because the only other reference they have for ranch dressing is store bought garbage.

    also jealous you guys have buttermilk, there is none to be had here, the closest thing is Kiefer which works just as well…but it’s not the same.
