10 Foods That Everyone, Except Americans, Finds Incredibly Weird

In This Article:

Americans have come up with some really weird foods. Convenient, but weird. People outside of the US know this, too.

1. Spray cheese

Giphy

I know people who actually love this stuff as gross as that sounds. I'm not a fan, though.

2. Deep frying everything

No one else has ever looked at an Oreo and thought, "This would be so much better if it were deep-fried." But Americans, we just know that everything is better deep-fried.

3. Pop Tarts

Giphy

I absolutely love cinnamon brown sugar Pop Tarts but I could definitely see how they don't really make sense to other people. It's processed sugar on top of more processed sugar. But you know.

4. Root beer floats

Mixing ice cream in soda, what could be weird about that?

5. Meatloaf

Giphy

Understandable. Ground meat shaped into a loaf doesn't sound great but my mom actually makes amazing meatloaf.

6. Corn dogs

Again with the deep frying everything but I love corn dogs.

7. Hawaiian pizza

Pineapple should not be on pizza. End of story.

8. String cheese

To other people, this just isn't real cheese. And why do we feel the need to pull it in strings?

9. Sweet potato casserole

My favorite part about Thanksgiving. Yet, this does seem like an excuse to cover vegetables in sugar.

10. Ice water obsession

I guess it's an American thing to enjoy a refreshing ice cold water. Especially if it's hot outside, I don't want warm tap water.

A Deep Dive Into Taylor Swift’s Albums: 1989 (Taylor’s Version) Edition

I just know that the idea of releasing vault tracks came out of the moment Taylor remembered she wrote 'Is It Over Now?'

A Deep Dive Into Taylor Swift’s Albums: 1989 (Taylor’s Version) Edition
Edited by Hailey Hastings

I am fully emersed into diving deep into every single Taylor Swift album, which I do on my own all the time, but wanted to do it in a way where I am sharing what a special discography she has. I feel like 1989 is the perfect place to start, it's an era that changed everything, and will always be an album people automatically think of when you say "Taylor Swift."

The Perks of Being a Girl

“I just want you to know that you’re very special… and the only reason I’m telling you is that I don’t know if anyone else ever has.”
