This is probably the most accurate American section I've seen. Almost everything is the actual brand that we most commonly have here. A bit heavy on the sweets, but having Old Bay and Sweet Baby Ray's gets an A+ from me.
Pickles as we know them in the US are surprisingly uncommon in much of the rest of the world. You'd be hard pressed to find even a single giant spicy dill pickle in a bag at a gas station anywhere else, much less a dozen different varieties.
Yeah, living on the California coast I'm spoiled for choice when it comes to most produce including olives. There's a stall at my local farmers' market that has an almost overwhelming variety of types and preparations.
I read their comment and I was like ‘Whaddaya mean you only have two types of olives
😳’ but yah, we are pretty spoiled here. I’m always suprised when I travel out of state and they don’t have what I would consider grocery basics like that.
I was at my parents house in Salt Lake City and we could not find miso anywhere for the dish I was making and I was shocked, since I lived in Austin before, and most ingredients for all types of cooking are readily available in most stores. We are so lucky with the variety of food we have available out here in California.
A little heavy on the candy, maybe, but generally speaking this is a very good one. Lots of quintessential American products here, and my new england ass is happy to see Old Bay and Fluff represented.
Having baking soda in there is hilarious, particularly in the home of soda bread.
As an American I'm like, yep. This is the most basic stuff you can get. Kind of boring actually. I'm a little surprised anyone would find this novel but, I hope people enjoy it.
I wonder how many of them know that the real use for the Lipton French Onion Soup mix is to mix with sour cream and use a a dip for potato chips (crisps?).
We do a version of that in New Zealand too. Reduced cream in a can, onion soup mix and mix together with a little bit of lemon juice or vinegar. It’s called Kiwi dip.
in ireland my local friends took me to an "american" restaurant (50s diner decor etc.) I had chicken strips and they came with a white sauce, that I expected to be ranch.
it was like halal garlic sauce, which wasn't bad! but I cracked up. they clearly saw a picture of the dish, saw white sauce and went "oh yeah got it. white sauce" lmao
It's incredibly rare for me to ever find any Herr's products. Ironically I'm snacking on some Jalapeño Poppers cheese curls right now but I can only ever find them at Dollar Tree. Food is regional even in the US and Herr's is east coast.
Marshmallow fluff ALWAYS seems to be in these sections. And as a Californian who almost never saw these in our grocery stores, it really confused me at first since it’s definitely a regional thing. But I guess it must travel well.
It's the pride of new england, and fluffernutters are the official state sandwich of Massachusetts. Honestly, it's a little ridiculous but insanely good. I highly recommend giving smooth PB and fluff on white bread a try sometime.
I live in Massachusetts and worked in this restaurant years ago that did a deep fried fluffernutter. It was a regular fluffernutter sandwich dipped in pancake batter and deep fried.
They went out of business. Probably from killing their customers with cholesterol. It was called Chubby's in Dracut, MA. They had a double-bacon cheeseburger that, instead of a bun, used two grilled cheese sandwiches. It wasn't really the healthiest place.
Whenever a restaurant is named "Hello I am obese Jeffrey" or something you know it's gonna be good. I think I've only ever met cooks who were proud of being fat.
Fat Nats where I am is a great fuckng diner (I think it's regional) and also the best service I've ever gotten, I tipped twenty dollars. Seating for fifty and one fucking waitress and I never once had to ask for anything. I'd finish my coffee and she'd be right there to fill me back up, and then two minutes later somehow be back in time for a refill on another person at my table's coffee. Diner waitresses don't fuck around, I had to walk up to her after we paid and tell her I was at that point a decade in the industry and I had never seen service like that, she was omniscient and may or may not have had teleportation powers as well
There's a good chance your supermarket has it, but it's tucked into a weird corner maybe in the baking aisle. Same thing up here in Washington. I've never met anyone who eats it, but you can still sometimes spot it in the stores.
They have quite a lot of movie theater candy boxes. Ive only seen most of those candies in movie theaters. Mike and ikes and cookie dough bites aren't the best representation of our candy.
Old Bay is Maryland, but close enough. First thing I do at a foreign store, or even one across the country, is search for new candies. I didn't know a thing about Rowntree's until landing at Gatwick. I didn't know what Irn-Bru was until I saw it on the menu and ordered to see what it was.
I was gonna say this isn't the worst I've ever seen. Jelly Bellys, Coffeemate Hazelnut, and Cookie Dough Bites are yum. I can only find the last in movie theaters here though.
Sweet Baby Ray's is the only grocery store BBQ sauce worth a damn too.
Some of these things I've never seen before though, like those chips. Honey cheese...? :X
My local Sainsbury’s has Sweet Baby Ray’s and it’s a staple in our house. The one in this picture that really gets me is A1 sauce though. My wife loves it and I haven’t seen it anywhere in London.
These sections tend to be heavy on sweets because generally the only people who want this stuff are kids who've watched a lot of American YouTubers and heard about them.
Or because they’re going to mainly ship items that don’t go bad quickly and are easy to ship, and snack food fits that bill? These types of sections in any grocery store for other countries are always filled with non perishable snacks.
Diamond crystal, Jiffy corn muffin mix, maybe looks like a quality root beer? I'm happy. Now only if they had peanut butter without the palm oil and sugar, then I'd be over the moon.
There’s basically 2 popular brands of Bulk Kosher salt across the US. Diamond has a better shape than Morton (more crystal like, less like ground salt), but it can be harder to find
It’s a kosher salt that’s very popular with hobbyist home cooks (and professionals too, I imagine). If you look at a recipe from NYT Cooking, there’s a 75% chance it will specifically recommend Diamond Crystal salt rather than just “salt.”
It’s a good salt, higher quality than Morton’s, and it’s a lot more forgiving, too. It’s not nearly as, uh, salty, as other table salts so it’s hard to over-salt with it.
The reason it's not as salty is they use larger/flakier crystals, so they don't pack as densely when measured by volume. Weight for weight I believe they're pretty interchangeable.
I just am a bit surprised that it’s apparently “American” I mean, I just kind of assumed that kosher salt existed every where meat needs to be preserved.
I also enjoy that they have a British brown sauce (A1) in the American section.
I love Mike and Ike’s but this is more variety than you’d get even at most gas stations here. 6 flavors?! It does bother me how they aren’t grouped at all on these shelves
"Salad cream" is the sad result of rationing eggs - in a world without mayonnaise, somebody invented salad cream. Like marmite, it's a love/hate food - some people make sandwiches of it (not with it, of it, as in a pure salad cream filling). I think it is really icky.
The basic sauce dates back to victorian times at least. It's basically similar to mayo but with a bunch of the oil replaced with vinegar. I was curious and Heinz first started manufacturing it in 1914.
One time while deployed to Afghanistan we ran out of slap yo mamma, it’s the only thing that made the food palatable… dude emailed the company and explained the situation… they mailed us a full case no charge.
Yes, because they are not exclusive to the US in terms of stock, factories etc. the items you see in the section are imported products that are not produced or sold in the uk& Ireland
Lol I am and I sure do. Pro tip, if you ever see old bay goldfish, get them! Amazing and highly addictive!! Just make sure you have a gallon of water on standby
Yeah and I would stand by most of these things too honestly. If you're gonna pick one cereal to represent us, I'm on board with it being Cinnamon Toast Crunch!
I wish I could get Velveeta tbh; I always eat it when I go visit the US. Brought some back in my carry on once (it's TSA approved!) and made shells for my German roommate and his mind was fucking blown. He looked like he was having a religious experience.
I’m American living in the UK and I’m seriously eyeing that Jiffy cornbread mix 😭 And that coffee creamer- I have to order it on Amazon because it does not exist here in south wales 😭
The Jiffy cornbread mix is the only Jiffy mix worth buying and is very multi-use. Makes everything from muffins to pancakes and is very cheap in the US, about $3 per 240gm box.
The onion soup mixes are good for hamburger, and meatloaf seasoning. Sucks they don't have the onion mushroom one. And why is baking soda in the american selection?
Always with the strawberry Fluff. I live near the Fluff capital of the world and I’ve never seen strawberry, but somehow it seems to be in every American section outside the US.
Of course it's all going to be junk. It's not like they're going to have carrots and chicken thighs in the American section, those are just regular groceries.
This is one of the better ones! Old Bay, goldfish, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, diamond kosher salt, Lipton onion soup mix, slap ya mama, and rotel are all staples in my house
The beef jerky hanging on the end is a nice touch
This is probably the most accurate American section I've seen. Almost everything is the actual brand that we most commonly have here. A bit heavy on the sweets, but having Old Bay and Sweet Baby Ray's gets an A+ from me.
If I was abroad for an extended period of time and I saw this, I’d feel right at home
Slap Ya Mama is a legit Louisiana Cajun seasoning, too.
*lol I just noticed that they included a big box of salt.
I thought the same thing about the jar of pickles.
I can’t read the label but it looks exactly like Bowl and Basket, which is weirdly the Shoprite store brand and not a name brand.
Yeah that’s correct, it’s bowl & basket.
They don't eat pickles in Ireland?
Pickles as we know them in the US are surprisingly uncommon in much of the rest of the world. You'd be hard pressed to find even a single giant spicy dill pickle in a bag at a gas station anywhere else, much less a dozen different varieties.

Ah yes, the five food groups...
Pickles, Peanut Butter, Marshmallows, Candy, and Beef Jerky.
A little heavy on the candy, maybe, but generally speaking this is a very good one. Lots of quintessential American products here, and my new england ass is happy to see Old Bay and Fluff represented.
Having baking soda in there is hilarious, particularly in the home of soda bread.
Honestly, of all the American food shelf pictures I’ve seen on Reddit, this one is by far the most hinged.
Yep, this is one of the only ones where not only am I familiar with all of the items, I've eaten most of them at least once.
It's very candy-heavy, but all of the brands and types are at least popular and normal.
Most the time these are posted I've never even heard of over half the stuff on the shelves.
The overrepresentation of candy probably has more to do with margin, sell through, and the fact it basically doesn’t expire.
I don’t think it’s supposed to be perfectly representative of processed food shelves here.
Edit: The actual crime is the knock off Pop Tarts to the left of the blue Goldfish.
They also got knockoff mac n cheese where the hell is Kraft?!
The knockoff mac and cheese and pancake mix is a producer in Europe who specifically sells for the American section of grocery stores.
Well tell em to KNOCK IT OFF
The American package can’t legally be sold in the EU — they can’t label it as cheese. They could sell Canadian Kraft Dinner…
Actual pop tarts are probably elsewhere on the regular shelves
Yeah, we have chocolate and strawberry Pop Tarts in Ireland.
Ah, so at least one of the good ones. No brown sugar? You can break those up into little pieces and make smores with them.
Break them up into little pieces to make s’mores? Why would you make small s’mores? That’s not very American of you at all.
Sadly no. They did recently introduce Smores, but they don't taste the same as the American ones.
It's the off brand Mac n cheese that got me.
As an American I'm like, yep. This is the most basic stuff you can get. Kind of boring actually. I'm a little surprised anyone would find this novel but, I hope people enjoy it.
Barbecue sauce is essential and sorely missing across the pond. They have no idea how good BBQ is and it shows
I've also heard ranch is almost non existent but they don't have that being sold
I wonder how many of them know that the real use for the Lipton French Onion Soup mix is to mix with sour cream and use a a dip for potato chips (crisps?).
We do a version of that in New Zealand too. Reduced cream in a can, onion soup mix and mix together with a little bit of lemon juice or vinegar. It’s called Kiwi dip.
in ireland my local friends took me to an "american" restaurant (50s diner decor etc.) I had chicken strips and they came with a white sauce, that I expected to be ranch.
it was like halal garlic sauce, which wasn't bad! but I cracked up. they clearly saw a picture of the dish, saw white sauce and went "oh yeah got it. white sauce" lmao
Had a similar experience in Thamel, the tourist district of Kathmandu. Found a bakery full of delicious-looking pastries.
Let’s just say that they didn’t taste like they looked.
I went to an American restaurant in Barcelona. On the menu, they had a milkshake with a donut on top. Said it was a "classic American milkshake"
We just love garlic mayo with chicken over here. An essential ingredient in our beloved chicken fillet roll!
I presume it's for homesick Americans looking for a snack rather than Irish people.
[deleted]
It's probably the stuff that actually sells
It's Ireland. The rest of the store is just loose potatoes /s
It's a pretty solid assortment, but at the same time, as an American, I don't actually eat anything pictured except peanut butter. Never Jif though.
Same same. Except I buy baking soda. Lots of uses. Why would Europe not have baking soda? Sounds sus.
Justin peanut butter ftw.
It's incredibly rare for me to ever find any Herr's products. Ironically I'm snacking on some Jalapeño Poppers cheese curls right now but I can only ever find them at Dollar Tree. Food is regional even in the US and Herr's is east coast.
Marshmallow fluff ALWAYS seems to be in these sections. And as a Californian who almost never saw these in our grocery stores, it really confused me at first since it’s definitely a regional thing. But I guess it must travel well.
It's the pride of new england, and fluffernutters are the official state sandwich of Massachusetts. Honestly, it's a little ridiculous but insanely good. I highly recommend giving smooth PB and fluff on white bread a try sometime.
I live in Massachusetts and worked in this restaurant years ago that did a deep fried fluffernutter. It was a regular fluffernutter sandwich dipped in pancake batter and deep fried.
They went out of business. Probably from killing their customers with cholesterol. It was called Chubby's in Dracut, MA. They had a double-bacon cheeseburger that, instead of a bun, used two grilled cheese sandwiches. It wasn't really the healthiest place.
Whenever a restaurant is named "Hello I am obese Jeffrey" or something you know it's gonna be good. I think I've only ever met cooks who were proud of being fat.
Fat Nats where I am is a great fuckng diner (I think it's regional) and also the best service I've ever gotten, I tipped twenty dollars. Seating for fifty and one fucking waitress and I never once had to ask for anything. I'd finish my coffee and she'd be right there to fill me back up, and then two minutes later somehow be back in time for a refill on another person at my table's coffee. Diner waitresses don't fuck around, I had to walk up to her after we paid and tell her I was at that point a decade in the industry and I had never seen service like that, she was omniscient and may or may not have had teleportation powers as well
Where is this magical place
Just commented on another post, but it's closed. It was called Chubby's in Dracut, MA.
Ive tried it! I’ve since dated a girl from Massachusetts who introduced me to the fluffernutter and I liked it WAY more than I thought I would
There's a good chance your supermarket has it, but it's tucked into a weird corner maybe in the baking aisle. Same thing up here in Washington. I've never met anyone who eats it, but you can still sometimes spot it in the stores.
Noticed the fluff right away. They should move it next to the peanut butter, though.
I wanna know why SO much Mike and Ikes, who likes them that much?
I fucking love Mikes and Ikes but not THIS much
regular Mike and ikes are awesome and that's really all you need.
Also perplexed by how many offerings of goldfish they have
Agreed. First one of these I've seen in a while where I recognize pretty much everything as something I'd see during a normal grocery run in the US.
They have quite a lot of movie theater candy boxes. Ive only seen most of those candies in movie theaters. Mike and ikes and cookie dough bites aren't the best representation of our candy.
Old Bay is Maryland, but close enough. First thing I do at a foreign store, or even one across the country, is search for new candies. I didn't know a thing about Rowntree's until landing at Gatwick. I didn't know what Irn-Bru was until I saw it on the menu and ordered to see what it was.
I was gonna say this isn't the worst I've ever seen. Jelly Bellys, Coffeemate Hazelnut, and Cookie Dough Bites are yum. I can only find the last in movie theaters here though.
Sweet Baby Ray's is the only grocery store BBQ sauce worth a damn too.
Some of these things I've never seen before though, like those chips. Honey cheese...? :X
Noticed that there’s only one bottle of Sweet Baby Ray’s left.
My local Sainsbury’s has Sweet Baby Ray’s and it’s a staple in our house. The one in this picture that really gets me is A1 sauce though. My wife loves it and I haven’t seen it anywhere in London.
Fwiw A1 is basically American Brown Sauce/HP.
It's good, but the Stubbs brand is better.
I like Stubbs because it has decently low added sugar and still actually tastes like BBQ sauce is supposed to.
Kind of helps that Stubb’s has been a BBQ restaurant long before they sold sauces :-)
Old Bay isn’t a New England thing though? Am I missing something?
It's a Atlantic seaboard thing. Started in Maryland but it's ingrained into the culture of all the northeast coastal states.
These sections tend to be heavy on sweets because generally the only people who want this stuff are kids who've watched a lot of American YouTubers and heard about them.
Candy has small unit sizes and is infinitely shelf stable with no refrigeration. I don’t think it’s more serious than that.
Or because they’re going to mainly ship items that don’t go bad quickly and are easy to ship, and snack food fits that bill? These types of sections in any grocery store for other countries are always filled with non perishable snacks.
It's also one of the things that tend to be really specific without much equivalent in the rest of the supermarket.
The savory stuff is usually all around anyway.
The two things I'd make sure to add are graham crackers and ranch dressing.
I mean they’re not gonna put American fruits and veggies here. A lot of country sections tend to be snack heavy
Honestly the fact that they have the good diamond crystal salt makes the whole section worth it.
I can’t even find Diamond Crystal in my American city lmao
If you have a specialty spice store, try there. It’s stupid, but worth a try
If you have a Trader Joe’s nearby, they carry it!
Must be regional. None of the ones near me do, just their own branded sea salt shaker cylinder
Diamond crystal, Jiffy corn muffin mix, maybe looks like a quality root beer? I'm happy. Now only if they had peanut butter without the palm oil and sugar, then I'd be over the moon.
Old Bay too. That shit is delicious on a lot of things.
Might be a hot take but I think the Krusteaz Honey Cornbread mix clears Jiffy
What’s the deal with the salt?
There’s basically 2 popular brands of Bulk Kosher salt across the US. Diamond has a better shape than Morton (more crystal like, less like ground salt), but it can be harder to find
It’s a kosher salt that’s very popular with hobbyist home cooks (and professionals too, I imagine). If you look at a recipe from NYT Cooking, there’s a 75% chance it will specifically recommend Diamond Crystal salt rather than just “salt.”

I just am a bit surprised that it’s apparently “American” I mean, I just kind of assumed that kosher salt existed every where meat needs to be preserved.
I also enjoy that they have a British brown sauce (A1) in the American section.
I was today years old when I learned that A1 was not originally an American brand of steak sauce, just that it got rebranded when being sold here.
Way too much Mike and Ike.
Fruity candies are greatly over represented in cases like these because chocolate doesn’t ship as well.
Also cheap American chocolate is just not going to sell over there.
Yeah, outside of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, I don't want any American chocolate when I'm abroad.
Yeah, we've got world class chocolate up with the best of them, but not the shit from Hershey's.
We have so many more brands of chocolate, I hate that America is known for Hershey’s, I haven’t had a hersheys bar in ages
Yeah why not Ghirardelli which is so much better?
What I’m saying! Hell even the 1 dollar chocolate bars at aldi are better than Hershey
I love Mike and Ike’s but this is more variety than you’d get even at most gas stations here. 6 flavors?! It does bother me how they aren’t grouped at all on these shelves
Yeah, what’s that pale pink box and why have I never seen it before? I need that here.
Sour watermelon!
Sour watermelon, they’re so fucking good.
Stubbs sauce is a mythical pull
For real. The sweet baby ray’s was expected but that’s like the most generic bbq out there. Stubb’s is my go to, especially the sweet heat kind.
There’s so much of it stocked. I don’t think customers know what a gem they have there.
Now they do
I didn't even know they still made Charleston Chews!
Welp off to amazon
Tip: If it's been a couple decades, be careful with your teeth.
they are great and extra dangerous when frozen
Tip: especially if the box is a couple of decades old. Fresh ones are soft and chewy
Arrrooooo
The Dollar Tree has boxes of the tiny bite-sized Charleston Chews and they are amazing. Especially if you throw em in the freezer for a couple minutes
Off brand Mac and Cheese is a fucking crime.
That one looks like it tastes radioactive
It’s horrible - neon yellow powder and terrible macaroni.
Bought it to try it out and it’s like someone described Kraft M&C over a bad quality phone call while drunk. Nothing like the real deal.
I'm an American living in Europe and I'm always amazed that none of the American sections have Ranch dressing.
In Iceland’s costco (yes, they have one) the Cool Ranch Doritos were named “Cool American Flavor”.
Non-Americans don’t know what ranch flavor is even when they have it.
I lived in the UK for a bit and it was actually shocking how few salad dressing options there were.
The fuck is "salad cream".
"Salad cream" is the sad result of rationing eggs - in a world without mayonnaise, somebody invented salad cream. Like marmite, it's a love/hate food - some people make sandwiches of it (not with it, of it, as in a pure salad cream filling). I think it is really icky.
The basic sauce dates back to victorian times at least. It's basically similar to mayo but with a bunch of the oil replaced with vinegar. I was curious and Heinz first started manufacturing it in 1914.
I mean it’s essentially miracle whip. Don’t know anyone who uses it.
Or at least ranch seasoning, it keeps well enough and is still pretty common in American cooking even outside of making ranch
Flavor blasted goldfish fuck.
Sweet baby rays and A1? This is a good example of America groceries.
And Stubbs’ Liquid Smoke! It’s one of the secret ingredients in my chili recipe.
Slap Ya Mama🔥
Was thinking the same thing; they prob don’t know how lucky they are
I saw that and wondered who suggested to get that for the American shelf. They deserve an award.
And Stubbs is a pretty good BBQ sauce. I was expecting Kraft or Sweet Baby Rays.
Sweet baby rays is next to the powdered lemonade.
Bc of course it is!
The Hickory Brown Sugar slaps. Glad to see they chose that and not the regular variety.
Stubbs is good. It was GREAT until McCormick bought it and the flavor changed.
One time while deployed to Afghanistan we ran out of slap yo mamma, it’s the only thing that made the food palatable… dude emailed the company and explained the situation… they mailed us a full case no charge.
Wow, that’s pretty cool of the company to do!!
Slap Ya Mama boxed red beans and rice is so good 🤤
Hell yeah. Then throw it on top of some cornbread, one of my favorites
Surely Oreos and Doritos are elsewhere in the store
The are everywhere in the world
And of varying quality.
The Doritos and Oreos in Korea were pretty bad imo.
We have oreos in Canada. They taste like shit. American oreos are far superior.
Trade you our Oreos for an actual head of state?
Yes, because they are not exclusive to the US in terms of stock, factories etc. the items you see in the section are imported products that are not produced or sold in the uk& Ireland
I wonder why someone would need specifically American baking soda?
We call it bicarbonate of soda - maybe people don't realise it's the same thing?
Well not if you keep adding extra letters…
Oh sorry, bicarbounate of souda.
Is there a difference?
I doubt it, I think all brands of baking soda are more or less the same.
I’m sure there has to be baking soda somewhere else in the store right?
Irish soda bread is kinda a thing, so I cannot imagine otherwise.
Get the Slap Yo Mama Cajun seasoning. You're welcome.
They ain't ready for that
Theyre Irish. The whitest of white people. Slap Yo Momma would kill them.
Sure, but what a way to go
They got Old Bay. That's good. They're set.
If you’re from the DelMarVa part of the US you have Old Bay next to your salt and pepper shakers
Lol I am and I sure do. Pro tip, if you ever see old bay goldfish, get them! Amazing and highly addictive!! Just make sure you have a gallon of water on standby
Old bay cheese curls are the most dangerous snack in existence
Which actually made me realize even though Ireland is an island I can't really think of any Irish seafood dishes.
Not bad. From what I can see everything is actually an American brand. Not mixed in with knock off things we’ve never heard of.
Yeah and I would stand by most of these things too honestly. If you're gonna pick one cereal to represent us, I'm on board with it being Cinnamon Toast Crunch!
Most expats would be looking for Kraft Mac n Cheese. I buy Annie's but I would choose Kraft over whatever that is.
This is the best American section I’ve ever seen.
I’m definitely going to pass on the un-refrigerated Egg Nog. That just sounds terrible *edit: typo
Quadruple the rum to be sure to kill the Salmonella!
Definitely some American all-stars here, but they definitely biffed it by offering anything but Kraft Mac and Cheese.
I wish I could get Velveeta tbh; I always eat it when I go visit the US. Brought some back in my carry on once (it's TSA approved!) and made shells for my German roommate and his mind was fucking blown. He looked like he was having a religious experience.
I’d be hitting that Slap Ya Mama.
Damn, yall even have Stubbs BBQ - nice.
I’m American living in the UK and I’m seriously eyeing that Jiffy cornbread mix 😭 And that coffee creamer- I have to order it on Amazon because it does not exist here in south wales 😭
The Jiffy cornbread mix is the only Jiffy mix worth buying and is very multi-use. Makes everything from muffins to pancakes and is very cheap in the US, about $3 per 240gm box.
Accurate. Stubbs is an excellent BBQ sauce.
The onion soup mixes are good for hamburger, and meatloaf seasoning. Sucks they don't have the onion mushroom one. And why is baking soda in the american selection?
Irish selection in America
I know this is a joke but lots of grocery stores in the US carry Irish tea like Barry's and Kerrygold butter.
And Kerrygold reserve aged cheddar. The best!!
Kerrygold is a staple in our house
Thought it was gonna be a box of Lucky Charms
It’s all the stuff from the try channel on YouTube
Always with the strawberry Fluff. I live near the Fluff capital of the world and I’ve never seen strawberry, but somehow it seems to be in every American section outside the US.
I use Slap Ya Mama dust on everything.
Never have I ever in my 36 years in the good ol U-S-of-A seen egg nog not be refrigerated
Decent! It looks like it was curated by someone who's actually been to an American grocery store, or might otherwise know an American.
Geez, it's like they think we eat nothing but junk ...oh wait.
Of course it's all going to be junk. It's not like they're going to have carrots and chicken thighs in the American section, those are just regular groceries.
Get goldfish and put them in soup, particularly tomato soup.🤤
Or be an animal like me and just hork them down by themselves. It helps to have some water handy
An entire row of Reece’s seems appropriate.
I’m a bit surprised by the fluff. That seems pretty niche even in parts of the US.
Never heard of Fluff before. Lifelong West coaster.
Ingredients: High fructose ——-> American Selection
The slap ya mama bottom center is perfect.
Hell yeah Old Bay.
American here - I haven't eaten most of those things in years but Old bay is always in my cabinet.
Did you take the photo during an earthquake by any chance?
I love this every time it's posted
Old Bay??? MARYLAND MENTIONED💛🖤❤️
This is a pretty good selection. As an American this shelf wouldn't be out of place at a small rural gas station.
This is one of the better ones! Old Bay, goldfish, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, diamond kosher salt, Lipton onion soup mix, slap ya mama, and rotel are all staples in my house
I'm always curious whenever I see apple sauce in photos of American sections. Do Europeans not eat apple sauce?
What a joke. Not even a single firearm in the whole aisle
