WHY DOESN’T EVERY COUNTRY HAVE THIS?
Reddit asked, “What’s one product from your home country that you’re surprised hasn’t become more popular worldwide?” Some of the responses:
– “Finland – dish drying cabinet.”
– “From Sweden, the torkskåp. It’s a heated cabinet where you hang your clothes and essentially let them line dry. It goes about as fast as a tumble dryer but it is so much kinder to your clothes.”
– “Heated vending machines from Japan.”
– “Peanut butter is the best thing ever and some folks outside the U.S. not only dislike it but think it’s disgusting.”
– “Tim Tams chocolate covered malt biscuit candy bars.”
– “Ketchup chips.”
– “Toilets with pedals instead of levers so you don’t have to touch anything with your hands.”
– “Cream Cheese. I visited a very nice newer all inclusive in Central America. They had bagels but no cream cheese. I inquired if they had some and everyone in the kitchen had never heard of it.”
– “Robertson screws from Canada – a type of screw with a square-shaped socket instead of a slot or a Phillips head.”
– “American soft pretzels.”
