    In the spirit of trying to draw people together since we’re so good at finding ways point out our differences. Here’s something I think most can get behind: southern comfort food.

    Thought this was pretty funny seeing the dawning realization of what they’re missing in the UK.

    Must be weird for the Brits to taste food that has flavor. ;)

    That was good, it’s kind of a rip off though if a whole series on YouTube of Irish people trying American food. ’there are a bunch of hilarious episodes. Warning, language, and you might go down a rabbit hole for hours watching these.

    I saw one where some folks from the Middle East tried Popeyes chicken for the first time. Always entertaining to see their reactions.

    There’s also a funny video where rappers listen to rock. In one instance the listen to Phil Colin’s and are blown away by his hooks

    I think you could do a mystery ingredients challenge for them with salt, pepper, and butter.

    I also like these guys. They do a whole series of "First Time hearing ..." videos. The individual reactions are very funny.

    I got hooked on watching black people react to Chris Stapleton for the first time a while back. The reactions were gold.

    Was this some kind of bit, or are you just very confused?

    Some people are simply determined to turn every thread, even one as innocent as this one, into a race argument. Such a sad, pitiful way to live.
