Spotted in Denmark! I’m an energy drink!
I know I put this in the Dutch category yet this was spotted in Denmark, well, my friend Jeremy saw it and he lives in the Netherlands, so it counts as Dutch. It is odd in how the description underneath … Continue reading
Amsterdam-Noord LED’ing the way!
In more news from Why Amerika Can’t Have Nice Things, the Dutch are leading the way with this new sports hall. You’re probably thinking, “Huh? We build such crap all the time in the States! High schools and universities are constantly … Continue reading
The Russian Invasion is putting the squeeze on the EU
From my friend Jeremy earlier today when he went to fill up for a trip to referee a match at a place I figure the trains don’t get to easily or at all. To give you a more American understanding … Continue reading
Assholism is an international language
Sadly, this is not from the porch of an American apartment building, it’s from the Netherlands courtesy of my friend living there. He didn’t go up to the townhouse to see if it belonged to an ex-pat or a Dutch … Continue reading
Dutch Cheetos with a little dig at ‘Murica
Spotted by Jeremy over there in the Netherlands. I’m guessing this is their equivalent of my favorite, Cheetos. Obviously, our marketing and association doesn’t work since the Dutch word for “cheese” is kaas, not sure what “chee” means there, so I … Continue reading
Dolls/Robots are getting a little too real?

Pasta found in the Netherlands that’s special!
As you can see from the label, whenever you buy this brand/package of pasta, you must give five ravioli to me. I prefer them to be cooked and covered with an Alfredo sauce. A chicken-based broth is acceptable too. In … Continue reading
Ummm…not even close!
American food may have many shortcomings given our obesity, poor health and probable constant fatigue. But we do not, ever, EVER, package hot dogs in a can. Those gross little “vienna sausages,” Somara loves which make me want to hurl. … Continue reading
Dutch potato chips’ flavor
Been a while since I shared one of these I have lifted from my friends the Derrs. So just what the hell is “Classic Burger” flavor when it comes to potato chips? I’m guessing it’s plain-jane potato (with salt) since … Continue reading
Dutch Doritos’ flavor
Makes me worry what they call our “regular” flavor and is there an “uncool” American flavor like “Ugly American”…it’s loud, boorish and smells like Fake News!
Frozen pizza in the Netherlands
I’m starting a new subcategory for Pictures called “Dutch Stuff” that will be dedicated to the funny, weird, odd, take your pick, products my friends living there find. To kick it off, one of my favorite foods, pizza. I’m guessing … Continue reading
