'Z'? I'll 'Z' you, you twit!

Are there any items or ways of life that you've discovered in another country which you would bring back to your own?

What about things you wish would go back?

Personally I love little bottles of Honey teriyaki marinade sauce which you can only get in a chain of supermarkets in Florida. They make Barbecues so much more appealing in this cold Scottish weather.

However I can never understand Why American-made applications can't be pre-set to realise when they are being used in a different country. I'm tired of having my words highlighted in red for being spelled the British way. :mad:

When I went to Hawaii they had octopus tentacles in the meat section of the grocery store.

From Italy? Man, it would be cool to take a break from work and school in the afternoon and nap, like Italians.

You realize this means you would be expected to stay awake later than 9pm, right?

Why would Americans want to propogate dumb spelling with redundant letters?

She has to stay up to watch the Matlock but can't keep her eyes propped open for the full episode. You'd be surprised how much knitting takes it out of you!

Giant robots, and the people in spandex suits that pilot them.

Man, those sticker booths in China. Not like the really crappy ones that you occasionally find in America... If I could bring a few of those things back and start my own business, I could make a living! ^_-
