The US is so broad and vast, significantly more varied and expansive than Europe in its entirety, not only because of all the cultures that have taken root but because they all mingled in the "new world" over the last few centuries creating new amalgamations and subcultures.

It's a beautiful place with a ton of great people and unique experiences, even from state to state.

Going up north and trying ketchup chips or real NYC pizza blew my mind. I can't imagine having bbq for the first time or seeing the inside of a Walmart when you're not used to one-stop-shops like that.

And the way the American people have been responding is beautiful. Kansas locals throwing a huge street party to welcome the Algerian team, Scottish fans flooding Boston (and draining it of all its booze while partying together AND CLEANING UP AFTER THEMSELVES), and all the adorable videos of foreigners having "my last Waffle House experience before I go home :(" or this legitimate ploy for people to try and smuggle ranch dressing.

Idk, that's the America I know and the 20% of morons that elected Trump don't ruin that for me.

I get it

Despite being depressed af I'm not miserable enough to believe shared human experiences and cultures clashing in friendly ways are an orchestrated effort to clean up the American government's global image  

Btw, you can't take liquids through TSA but you CAN freeze ranch or really anything else and that's allowed through TSA

I know, I included your quote just to agree with you, the other stuffs was meant for other people  

Also, nnn, yes they can but they really shouldn't. Since freezing will ruin the dressing. I'd recommend people to bring home the powdered mix one from Hidden valley instead, but then I red some replies in this thread, that buttermilk also isn't a thing in their country, so that will be an issue in itself

I still don't know what ranch is supposed to be. In Germany we're not really that big on bottled sauces, except ketchup and Maggie, maybe hollandaise during stinky piss season in summer.

It's basically a salad dressing or raw vegetable dip depending how thick it's made, but also used for chicken wing/nuggets dip. It's used for a lot of other food too but those are the basic most common ones 

We dip everything here tbh. The classic/plain chips, pizza, sausages, anything. Condiments are very popular here

We really do take so much for granted...

I saw a TikTok of some American athele who was in Spain for a few months literally crying and saying she wanted to go home, she was so hungry, the portions are tiny, there's zero flavor, and idk how true that is but girl was going through it
