Exactly what I said to the server in Cracker Barrel a couple of weeks ago. She agreed.

I remember asking my husband what Grits taste like and his answer was 'literally grit' lol

I love American burgers.
Hash browns are so much better as well.
Potato skins.
Quesadillas.
Ribs.

I love their fried pickle starters. Cornbread and biscuits and love their bacon even though I hate the fatty bits here, it’s the way they make it all crispy.

Over here I love my version of French toast , probably eggy bread to most folks, but OMG I hate the us version with cinnamon and I can’t get my head around why they can’t just dip the bread in some scrambled egg mix and make it for me ... they always tell me the batter is ready made with the cinnamon in it. Can get it done properly in Cracker Barrel if you ask

Canadian bacon (I know, name doesn't exactly scream US, but that's where I've eaten it mostly).

Florida means... Key Lime Pie

Dislike:
What the Americans call bacon (maybe it was once, before being fried to death).
Having to ask for "hot" tea to avoid getting a cold cuppa.
