OK part 2 of my 'American' section in the interna OK part 2 of  my 'American' section in the international aisle of British grocery stores. More hotdogs in jars and pumpkins in cans. Hot dogs and pumpkins exist in the UK, so I really don't get that one. Again with the Kisses cereal which is, as far as I am aware, not even sold in the US. More with this fantasy that we suck down nerds and twizzlers. The only legitimate item in this selection is pancake mix...although pancakes are literally the easiest thing to make from scratch, not one single British attempt even comes close. The 'American ' pancake house in my neighbourhood,  for instance, puts yeast in them. I'm pretty sure that's a criminal offence where I come from.

Typical "American food" selection in the internat Typical "American  food" selection in the international food aisle of British grocery stores...literally nothing Americans actually eat. Nerds only surface on Halloween...and hot dogs in a jar??? What is kisses cereal? I don't think that's even sold in the US. The only accurate thing is the pop tarts and even then only one of the flavors is normal. More on this later...ive seen even weirder selections.
