sister_luckYesterday I showed you how German supermarkets sell "British" food, today I can bring you The american way of lecker:
Having only stayed in the U.S. for 10 days I don't know how American all this seems to American palates. (I already know that selling hot dogs in jars isn't the done thing through a discussion in the comments in a post on Separated by a Common Language.)
There are obviously a couple of real American brands in the mix, although Pommes Frites Sauce (all good German words borrowed from French) while having a HEINZ label is probably not sold Stateside. The discussion of continental McDonalds from Pulp Fiction is pretty unforgettable.
So, how American or British are these foods for you? Do you feel they represent American or British cuisine in a fair way? Totally stereotypical? Which items are completely wrong?
