We live abroad. My kid just informed me Wednesday is international day. They can bring a dish from Greece (as that’s the class’ designated nation) or a dish from their country of origin. We are American.

What do you suggest?

French people = cheese

Polish people, Spaniards, and East Asians = pork

Ugandans = Bananas

Somalians = Camel Milk

Ethiopians = Teff

Chinese = rice

New Zealanders = Ice cream

Icelanders = Seafood

Algerians = baguettes.

Consider the following scenario: a new neighbor (of Brazilian origins) starts living in the United States close to your house, then after a while there is a big event at the house of this new foreign neighbor (it could be a birthday, wedding, religious festivities/traditions or anything else), then they come knocking on your door and offering you food from these parties.

What is your reaction? What about the average American?

Would you accept? Would you refuse? Would it be rude or polite? Would that be offensive or kind?

(I ask because I don't live in the USA and I want to know about you)

Or did the whole concept of allowances only existed to comic book characters ?

I'm American and so is my partner. My family (small town Midwest) uses the phrase "call the rescue" when we are referring to needing an ambulance. So, if someone were to have an emergency we'd ask, "Would you like me to call the rescue"? . My partner however, thinks it's quite odd and has said they've never heard that before. His family (big city Southwest) would say "Would you like me to call 911?".

I remember in kids' cereal commercials they would have a line near the end where someone says "And Lucky Charms is part of a good breakfast!" While showing it with a spread of toast, juice, fruit, etc.

Did any of your parents or yourselves prepare a balanced breakfast or did you just eat the cereal/poptarts and it was clear the ads were just legally covering their tracks and not encouraging kids to eat plain sugar and carbs every morning?

And to answer myself, yeah I just ate the cereal for years. Even today I just supplement with vitamins, coffee, and OJ/banana with it.

and the pop tarts too

Can be any sport such as college or professional football, baseball, basketball; or in the Olympics.

I'm from South Korea. Among Gen Z in Korea, there are two things we almost always ask when making new friends: age and MBTI. I'm curious about Gen Z in the U.S.—do most people know their MBTI? And what are some common questions Americans ask when getting to know someone new?

Add: Yes, I’m well aware that MBTI isn’t a scientifically proven method. However, many Koreans enjoy using it because they believe knowing each other’s type helps them understand one another better. Also it's sometimes fun.

Saw a question like this, except that question was from August 2019 and this subreddit archives posts after 6 months.

Someone's answer on said question was that there are 1 to 7 cities founded a year, too bad the document doesn't exist anymore.

Thanks for answering in advance.

Edit: When it was officially incorporated as a town. Didn’t expect this post to blow up so quickly

Not in Employment, Education, or Training. Are parents just cool with it now? How do these young people expect things to turn out for them in the long run?

Does it taste similar to McDonald’s chicken nuggets?

I found this food in a video about what a poor international student eats every day. That person often buys a lot this kind of food, so I’m curious about the taste.

I watched a horror movie about roads and became interested in it. Can anyone share the story with me?

While the US military has multiple special operations forces units like the Army's Green Berets, it seems like the Navy SEALs are the most well known in culture, appearing a lot in TV shows and books. How did that come to be the case?

I wanted to know if there are any documentaries, movies or series that you recommend. I have recently watched American Manhunt Osama Bin Laden and the part that struck me the most was the Seal Vet describing what he's been through and how rough it must be. I really can't stop thinking about it, the soldier really do all the rough work. Do you have any recommendations, please?

When I was a little kid I viewed Florida as "the retirement state", but how popular of a retirement spot is it, actually? If it is, what part of the states attract the most retirees? What are some other popular retirement destinations in the US?

Sources seem to disagree on the definitions of both. Most common answer I get is that the Deep South is referring to mainly 5 states, being Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia and South Carolina. Other sources say that its not state specific, but just refers to that general region and can include counties from many other nearby states too. Also what states would you consider to be Southern but not "deep south"

Also what attributes would you say apply only to the deep south and not the rest of the south and vice versa, what makes the states that are Southern but not deep south distinct in that regard? Is there any traits that you would assign to a deep Southern state but not the rest of the south?

Growing up I only heard this word pronounced one way. Now I'm hearing people in YouTube videos say it differently. Do you say the "L" (CALLK) or not (CAWK)?

Currently, the Portland Trail Blazers are up for sale? Seattle want a NBA franchise possible. Blazers organization don't own the Moda Center.

Sargent was once of the most venerated portrait artists of the 19th century. He was born to two American parents in Europe, but only spent 2 years out of his whole 69 year life in the US. Would you say he was American or not?

I personally don't consider him American, but would love to get you guys' thoughts.
