    There are a lot of people visiting the US for the first time for the world cup

      Apparently, they only care about soccer because we’ve been here for a while. I guess we lack culture, unlike the French cooking methods?

        In the current political climate it’s hard to see what “culture” would draw anyone to the US. Being detained by CBP and deported by ICE isn’t the kind of experience most people want in their holiday.

              About what, having good salad dressing named after them?

              Unlike the fucking russians and french, what the fuck is that shit? To be fair I’ve only had school cafeteria dressing as such, and tasted gross gordon foods type industrial dressing at buffets. Maybe some is good, I doubt it though.

        I’m sure there are people that only care about soccer, and are coming to see the world cup despite it being in the USA. Maybe some of those people were pleasantly surprised by what they found here 🤷‍♂️

      For sure. But they’re acting as if they’ve never tasted food before. It’s just a little over the top for my taste I suppose.
