Soccer fans (not FIFA fans) from all over the world are arriving in the US to attend the World Cup games, and for many, it's their first trip to America. Games are being held in the US, Mexico, and Canada. They've seen a lot of American culture in movies, but finding out it's all real is a different experience. What is impressing them the most? Our food!
We often think of American cuisine as a mix of dishes from everywhere else, but in the US, we manage to put our own spin on it, and that's something you can't learn from the movies. Visitors are amazed by the size of our drinks, Taco Bell, Waffle House hash browns, french fries, gravy, and most of all, ranch dressing. You have to wonder what the rest of the world actually eats. I'm sure they will go home with an extra few pounds as a souvenir.
