What's your stage of Tacticool?

Were they for Americans or were they German. If you travel overseas you'll know an "Americanized zone." for Americans who can't stand anything not with an American feel. I wouldn't say it's xenophobic, but unwillingness to accept that there are others which have a different culture or way of doing things. Europeans especially socialist ones have the same attitude.

Having been to a couple of those "Americanized zones", there was a few more multinational franchises in the proximity with some variation in the goods on offer in comparison to outlets not proximal to places with US personell, but basically same as the rest of Germany. The real difference was to be found within the fence where they followed slightly different rules, ie. they sold a ton of shite that fell short of food and drug regulations outside the fenceline. At least that was the case for Ansbach and the Hohenfels areas. Even the most xenophobic yanks would cross the fence for soda with "real sugar" like it was some sort of exotic treat.

Depends. I've been to a few outside of tourist and American oriented places, like Neunkirchen and they were less "American" feeling.

soda made with real sugar tastes way better. In Merica the soda is made with corn syrup. Big taste difference. Mericans would gladly pay the difference but US Big Soda knows what the Merican consumer wants.

In southern AZ we can get made in Mexico soda, and it's made with cane sugar. Definitely worth the price difference.

Yeah, but they still flew in pallets and pallets of that garbage, along with shitty chocolate that taste of sweaty socks - and most criminal of all, beer.
In Germany....
At least as far as I could see they did have the sense not to bring in sausage, probably because some crimes are inexcusable even by allies.

I think they have this weird thing about steaming their eggs and chlorinating their chicken.
Polish sausage probably doesn't contain the daily recommended value of pigs assholes, whiskers and snouts.

Nah it's a contract thing. Contractors are guaranteed sales though the military. Pig bungholes are used for curing cheese I believe, so no pig butthole are in US hotdogs.

What's really weird is the US pork industry is now largely owned by China. I've noticed a decrease in quality and taste. I stay away from Smithfield now.

you should ask about our mcnuggets.

Lol, yeah. I heard our nuggest being described as feeling weird for being made from ground thigh and breast meat.
Apparently some of our (Norways) gas station hotdogs has reached some kind of meme status as "Nectar of the gods" amongst some visiting US troops, which is a very grand way to describe a cheese filled spicy sausage wrapped in bacon.

Our gas station hotdogs are quite good actually, but having had Polish roadside eating I can understand your doubt.
Not that the food was all terrible, but why red fucking onions on fucking everything?

Sounds terrible.
I quite enjoyed the freshly cooked hot food, just not the red fucking onions that were indeed put on everything no matter how hard you mimed "Fuck those fucking onions!"
