hey guys tell you what why don't we sample some american food for a change there are plenty
of exotic foreign foods that can make a yankee queasy however on the flip side there are plenty
of foods in the good old usfa that foreigners find especially repulsive here are 15 foods americans
eat that disgust foreigners turducken then quick they're bringing out the toduken why have a boring
old turkey for thanksgiving when you could have a chicken a duck and a turkey all rolled into
one incredibly indulgent feast the turducken is actually a bizarre frankenstein-like thanksgiving
dish that only an american could dream up while a few other countries around the globe do celebrate
thanksgiving only yanks take the holiday to the extreme stuffing a chicken into a duck
and then further stuffing it into a turkey is a concept that disgusts plenty of foreigners
that's disgusting to make matters worse some americans like to deep fry their turducken as if
turducken wasn't strange enough already some say the turducken is the brainchild of cajun chef paul
prudhomme while others believe it was invented by new orleans-based surgeon dr gerald r lenasa
rumor has it that the big easy doc would use his scalpel to de-bone the birds before stuffing them
inside one another only in america grits you never heard of grits for some americans grits are an
important part of a balanced breakfast a bowl of grits is the perfect example of southern comfort
food but most foreigners are really grossed out by this hearty dish made from cornmeal
it doesn't matter if it's savory or sweet foreigners can't stomach the stuff you definitely
shouldn't say that to a southern grandma well you and me gonna have problems some foreigners
even say grits taste like wallpaper paste and certainly looks the part even adding bacon and
butter isn't enough for some folks rocky mountain oysters colorado specialty rocky mountain oysters
forget nachos and wings there are plenty of ranchers in colorado who would rather chow down
on a plate of deep-fried rocky mountain oysters while watching the broncos or avalanche play
rocky mountain oysters are actually the dangly bits of a bull you know as austin powers would
say i'm eating two [ __ ] my twiggin berries they even serve rocky mountain oysters at coors field
some rockies fans prefer to eat this bizarre ballpark snack instead of hot dogs rocky mountain
oysters aren't for everyone perhaps it's best to stick to a box of cracker jack if you have
a sensitive stomach if you see an angry steer in a field during your next cross-country road trip
you'll know why oh for all you city slickers out there a steer is a bowl that's missing
its unmentionables root beer is neither root beer nor cola it doesn't matter if it's barks mug or a
w root beer is simply too strange for some foreigners perhaps it's the strong flavor or
the tangy aftertaste some foreigners even say root beer has a medicinal taste and have compared it to
cough syrup if only root beer got rid of a cold like a spoonful of buckley's just uh add a little
coffee even a huge dollop of vanilla ice cream isn't enough to change their minds root beer is
incredibly unpopular in europe it's so despised that most supermarkets don't even carry it if
foreigners think root beer is bad they'll probably want to avoid sarsaparilla come to think of it the
only person that likes sarsaparilla is abe simpson chicken and waffles before that you can only get
chicken or waffles it might sound like blasphemy but some foreigners find chicken and waffles
disgusting granted it is a strange combination but the taste more than makes up for the bizarre
pairing this sweet and savory soul food staple is beloved by plenty of americans including hip-hop
legend snoop dogg snoop dogg fall snoop dogg he can often be seen stuffing his face with
crispy fried chicken and syrup covered waffles at roscoe's the restaurant is an la institution that
has been dishing out poultry and breakfast food since 1975 when bell bottoms were in and jaws was
swimming on the big screen pimento cheese sandwich pimento cheese how's that sound pimento cheese is
a southern favorite that's traditionally made of sharp cheddar cheese pimentos and
mayonnaise the creamy concoction which is often called caviar of the south or carolina caviar
can be spread on crackers or used as a dip for veggies pimento cheese is also commonly slathered
between two pieces of white bread the result is a strange sandwich that would make most foreigners
run for the hills sandwich is making me flush golf fans also enjoy pimento cheese sandwiches
it's the number one snack at augusta thousands of pimento cheese sandwiches have been eaten during
masters tournaments over the years just be careful when you take a bite tiger woods would
be plenty upset if you accidentally spilled pimento cheese on his green jacket snow cones
let's be honest snow cones are nothing more than ice and sugar foreigners simply can't stand the
amount of sugar that americans eat so it's no surprise that many people overseas find snow cones
disgusting i've got diabetes glenn's got diabetes some foreigners say the combination of syrup and
shaved ice shouldn't even count as food barack obama might disagree he absolutely loves snow
cones in addition to the risk of cavities snow cones can also lead to a chipped or cracked
tooth yikes cheese whiz that could upset the cheese whiz people americans are obsessed with
cheese whiz but foreigners tend to be absolutely disgusted by the stuff a jar of cheese whiz is
so processed that it barely contains any real cheese at all foreigners especially those in
cheese-loving countries like france consider the gooey cheese sauce to be an affront to nature
it was a pattern of disrespect and inappropriate behavior americans have been pouring cheese whiz
on nachos and spreading it on toast since the 1950s when elvis presley was tearing up the
airwaves and i love lucy was the most popular show on tv despite its longevity cheese whiz remains
extremely unpopular overseas it's sold in canada mexico venezuela and the philippines but sales are
nowhere near as robust as they are in the united states deep fried butter it looks like they're
deep frying vegetables mashed potatoes butter foodies around the globe love all sorts of fried
snacks but deep-fried butter is an artery-clogging treat that only an american could love to make
this cardiac arrest-inducing treat frozen golf ball-sized scoops of butter are covered in batter
and plopped into the deep fryer needless to say the calorie count is off the charts
look at this food it's gross and unhealthy it'll take a lot of cardio to work off a serving of
deep fried butter if you muster up the courage to try this midway snack make sure there's an
ambulance nearby you'll probably be mighty thirsty after eating deep fried butter just make sure you
order your coke in liquid form when you're done at the texas state fair yes they even deep fry
coke both deep fried coke and deep fried butter were created by extreme friar abel gonzalez jr
deep frying is a lifestyle and one that we can definitely get behind scrapple buy me some
scrapple sailor scrapple looks as unappealing as it sounds this pennsylvania favorite is made
from pork scraps and trimmings basically scrapple is a congealed meatloaf made from all the nasty
bits that would typically go to waste snout heart and liver are all common ingredients and scrapple
wouldn't be complete without a little bit of pork jowl thrown in for good measure all that awful is
mixed together with a hearty helping of cornmeal flour and spices oh boy spices fans of scrapple
can't get enough of this bizarre delicacy and they love to smother it in honey and maple syrup
would the honey and maple syrup be necessary if it actually tasted good wolf's superior
sandwiches and philly even created a cheese steak using scrapple that's fittingly called the
gritty it certainly sounds like something that the wild and crazy flyers mascot would enjoy
chowing down on casseroles the casseroles were endless and y'all sympathy got me through when
americans are in a pinch they make a casserole for dinner anything and everything can be plopped into
a casserole dish and put in the oven to make a filling meal whatever's in the cupboard will do
mushroom soup tuna ground beef and canned corn are all acceptable ingredients just don't put
them all into one casserole because you would be worried that it would taste awful the thing that
disgusts most foreigners about casseroles is the salt many casseroles are packed full of enough
sodium to cover the salt flats of crate from the last jedi garbage plate why don't you just call it
a garbage plate a garbage plate contains just about everything but the kitchen sink home fries
beans macaroni salad chili hot dogs and hamburger patties are piled high onto a single plate
fans of this gruesome and greasy dish often top the mountain high pile of food with ketchup and
hot sauce and then mix it all together into an unrecognizable mess you could say it's the epitome
of american cuisine because it's cheap filling and extremely unhealthy objection unhealthy few
foreigners are able to stomach this heaping mess and the ones that can usually end up with plenty
of leftovers the garbage plate is the signature dish at nick tahoe hots in rochester new york
and customers have been stuffing their faces with this detestable dish since 1918 when harry houdini
was escaping straight jackets and wowing audiences with his vanishing elephant trick come to think of
it making a garbage plate disappear is almost as impressive as making an elephant disappear
pickled pig's feet i want to eat some of them chitlin i love pig's feet you can find
pickled pig's feet on dinner tables in china italy and mexico but this grotesque snack is
most associated with good old-fashioned southern style soul food there are plenty of gross pickled
foods that are regularly eaten in the u.s but pickled pig's feet might be the most disgusting
pickled eggs seem pretty tame in comparison to make this bizarre bar food porky's trotters are
salted and smoked before they're submerged in a jar of hot vinegar brine the result is a downright
nasty dish that can last in your pantry for up to two years you'll be saying that's all folks to
your appetite when pickled pig's feet are on the menu sugary cereals chris i think you've had too
much sugar cereal eating a big bowl of cinnamon toast crunch while watching saturday morning
cartoons is a rite of passage for many americans but most foreigners prefer breakfast cereals that
are far healthier you definitely won't find apple jacks and sugar crisps at grocery stores in japan
american cereals are packed with enough sugar to make willy wonka richer than elon musk
sugar-filled cereals are so popular in the states that many americans would recognize toucan sam
before their local congressperson americans think lucky charms are magically delicious but there are
plenty of australians who would be disgusted by the sight of a bowl of rainbows hearts and
four leaf clovers to aussies vegemite is a far tastier than a bowl of frosted flakes what did
you say american cereals weren't always packed with so much sugar in the roaring 1920s american
children ate corn flakes and rice krispies today those cereals are considered too bland and boring
for most kids americans are taking sugary cereals to absurd levels these days there are even cereals
made from oreo cookies and dunkaroos why not just pour milk into a big bowl of sugar corn dogs what
are corn dogs cheap sausages dipped in butter and deep fried corn dogs are an american classic
but most foreigners find this iconic fair food repulsive corn dogs are so popular that more than
630 thousand of them are sold at the texas state fair every year hot dogs are pretty revolting to
begin with they're usually made with b for pork trimmings but it's often hard to tell exactly
what type of meat is used to make hot dogs that's why many people say they're made from mystery meat
just don't ask where the meat comes from to make a corn dog all you have to do is skewer
a hot dog with a stick dip it in batter and deep fry it recipes don't get much simpler than that
the exact origins of this american favorite are unknown but many food historians believe corn
dogs were invented by german immigrants in the 1920s the stick was added sometime in the 1940s
when kids were playing with slinkies and john wayne was one of hollywood's biggest stars check
