Oh and I forgot the amount of Britys who take their own tea with them because you can't get British Tea in the USA. Where are these tea plantations in the UK I wonder...


I have to say though, America just doesn't do a decent cuppa! I've been in too many Cafes / restaurants that ask me if I would like my tea after a meal hot. The Brits are a nation of Tea drinkers, the yanks Coffee drinkers.

The most common tea in the states, from my experience, is that horribly weak Lipton tea. [:$] So taking your own proper tea bags does make sense.

As for the video - great fun! Its a bit of a laugh, every country has people like that who don't have a clue. This is something that has gone on for years, and will always go on - countries always mock each other for one reason or another. Limeys?

Living away from home for long periods of time, you develop these kinds of habits... I always travel with a box of PG tips... It makes people laugh that I always take Tea to China... Green tea is nice, but you just can't find regular english style tea anywhere else in the world.
The closest you can come is Liptons Yellow label. It just isn't the same.....
And then there is Branston Pickle.... and don't get me started on the amount of cheese I need to smuggle.

So, yet again, another edited biased piece of film made to give the impression that All Americans, all 240 million of them are stupid.
Very funny...Not.

hey, lets make a film about how stupid Uk people are, i am sure that with our 64 million and the chavs in this country we can make the same film.

Anti-american rubbish once again.
not impressed, especially from those of such superior intellect, the Australians
