Yeah, that’s why I said move to Montana. I live in Montana. We don’t pay taxes up here especially me. I don’t pay taxes. I don’t pay sales tax. I don’t pay property tax. I don’t pay any of that tax. I’m tax exempt.
My nickname in high school when I worked at McDonald's back in the late 80s early 90s was "Cheese Lady" that was given to me by one of the cooks because I would order a McChicken with cheese, extra cheese on my lunch break. In my defense, when you ordered a McChicken with cheese they only put half a slice on it back then, so basically I was just getting a McChicken with a full slice of cheese on it. But the nickname sort of stuck. When I started dating my eventual husband our senior year one of the guys I worked with was in one of his classes and said "Oh, you're dating our Cheese Lady!" So until my hubby passed away in 2018 he would teasingly call me "Cheese Lady" anytime I was making any meal that had cheese in the recipe, which, I have to admit was quite often.
The giant food thing is a marketing ploy, usually they have either a prize or your meal is free if you can eat the giant item but it’s mostly just a show to get people coming in to see someone fail.
I’ve got two Buffalo Wild Wings shirts from beating there competition, I beat it in 2 minutes flat… 2 seconds away from tenth place and a wall picture and free food.

You can always ask for "a little ice" or "No ice", if you're opposed to it. Also, no one forces those tourists to stuff their face into a food coma. Admit it tourists, you come here, pig out and then blame us.

They left off that in some counties alcohol is still illegal to sell anytime they are called "dry" counties. Its not illegal to possess or to bring back within a certain quantity from another county as it applies to the sell of alcohol. So just across the county lines of a dry county there will be numerous little stores say 100 yards inside the "wet" county selling alcohol. Also cheese, cheese, cheeese, bacon, bacon, bacon, cheese, cheese!
The giant food is only in competitions. We do have larger portions of food and larger cars but remember we have a huge country to drive through! 😂. In the South everyone has at least one rifle usually it’s been passed down in the family. My dad has a revolutionary war rifle, his father’s War World 2 pistol and rifle, and his Vietnam rifle and a pistol. He’s leaving them to his eldest grandson. Btw the ice in our drinks actually help us with our kidneys and prevent dehydration. In the South in summer you want cold drinks as the temperature can get up into the 90’sF. I wish our food had less preservatives. Most of us over tip especially those of us who know someone who works in the restaurant industry. Many Americans smile and are super friendly and I’ve. I’ve noticed people in the USA wear more colorful clothing than others.
This guy is kind of crazy. Nobody cares about speedos, drinking while shooting a gun is definitely frowned upon, and I can’t imagine any military person, while clearing a mine field, is going to lay down and make the equivalent of a snow angel!! One thing he is correct about is the number of flags on display. I happened to be thinking about this the other day so started counting flags…within one mile I counted 22 flags on houses and businesses. That didn’t even count the Operation Hero display that had at least 20 flags flying or the flags on every street pole that the town has on display. And by the way, melted cheese is the BEST!
that stacked burger is from the Heart Attack Grill a novelty restaurant in Las Vegas, and yes at least one person attempting to eat it, did have a heart attack.
When camping near where I live you can shoot since it is hunting area. It isn't a free for all though and Gun safety is taught at a young age. Out there you can drink and shoot if that is your thing. Your guns need to be registered to you and if you get caught by a game warden or some other official you can get on some trouble I imagine(if you're doing stupid shit basically)
My favorite way to eat melted cheese is stuffed into a jalapeno chili and roasted. Slice a jalapeno into 2 pieces, remove the seeds, stuff cream cheese, or cheese of choice, into both slices, place on flat pan and bake in preheated oven, 350 degrees, until the jalapeno becomes soft and the cheese begins to melt. You can also roll the jalapeno w cheese in breadcrumbs and deep fry.
Its less common now, but a lot of restaurants used to have the continuous flow of ice into a bin that you scoop from. The hotel ice machines were like that too. They are getting replaced but some are slower than others about it.
4:05 Dude is in a hospital gown. That's what you'll be wearing if you eat this. And I don't know ANYONE who's eaten this type of monstrosity. It's insane. Ridiculous.
I'm in middle Tennessee and the liquor stores open at 10 am on Sunday. Tennessee is not a dry state on Sunday and drinking while shooting is frowned upon.
As a young adult i was a waiter. Never expected tips if the cook screwed up or if i forgot something but was greatful when i did. As an older adult i refuse to tip Subway,Coffee Shops, Grocery store baggers, ect.
Many, many coffee shops base their wages around tips received....you are the a-hole that no barista likes...make your coffee at home and be done with it.
No one says anything if you don't tip. No one cares. Everyones disposable income is down at the moment. Servers know that too. Anyone acting entitled to your money is undeserving of it. Everyone acts like you're robbing a server if you dont tip some rediculous amount because "they make less than minimum wage." Which they don't. That's a talking point that hasn't been the case in decades. Their official pay rate is lower than minimum wage because of the tips. But if they don't end up making at least minimum wage with the tips it's then the legal responsibility of the business to make up the difference. Actually illegal if they don't.
In the land of dairy dreams, where curds and whey entwine, I declare my love for melted cheese, oh how it makes me shine. From bubbling fondue rivers to gooey pizza slices, Each molten moment is a symphony of savory spices. Gruyère, my muse, dances on my taste buds, Cheddar whispers secrets in its golden floods. And when brie embraces baguette, soft and warm, I'm lost in a cheese-filled reverie, free from all harm. So here's to the dairy delight that melts hearts, A love affair with cheese that never departs. Whether grilled, baked, or simply sliced thin, Melted cheese, my dear friend, you always win. By AI
"we" is a questionable way of describing it. There are a few exhibitions that involve alligator-wrestling. It is not something to do on a lark. But since the US and China are the only countries with native alligator populations (and theirs are endangered in the wild), the US would be the only place to have such exhibitions.
@@thomasmacdiarmid8251 I stand corrected. The Seminole Indians did it before we arrived here. They do the gator wrestling shows that you speak of & are sparsely spread, or perform at Powwow’s, as well as some non native groups today both static & fairs. However, there is a sizable population of rednecks spread throughout the state, but also the other rural areas in other southern states. I can tell you that for many young men it is a “right of passage”. For many it’s barbecue entertainment. It is not legal without those permits & despite what tiktok portrays, rednecks are much much smarter than they appear and don’t film that, and post it.
Also “we” didn’t necessarily mean, “all Americans”. Also we have people catching catfish barehanded too. Not everybody does it. Not everybody plays football either. So when I say “we” I simply meant it is practiced here, and I don’t think anyone else does despite most developed countries having zoos with alligators, the only thing stopping them is desire. Only have I seen or heard of it here.
1:25 This actually refers to bars being restricted from serving drinks on certain days and times. Stores selling booze aren't actually serving booze and there's a big legal difference between the two.
Mexican food where the cheese is melted and just the very edge of it is crispy. That's the best. You can ask for "Easy Ice". If you ask for easy ice you will just get a drink where only 25/30% is ice
@@suefantastic4584 really? I never thought about how it sounded, it's just the phrase that's used in food service by a customer who wants less ice in their glass. But actually as I think about it, it sounds like the name of a wine spritzer or a frozen fruit drink mix that you would get at a beach resort or cruise ship
I am a new subscriber, only finding one of your channels about a month ago. And I just LOVE watching your videos. You are not only charming, but also entertaining. So, when I saw you talking about your newest channel (this one), I subscribed to it also on the very first day. I have heard you say you like reading our comments, hearing a little bit about us, etc.. I usually watch videos via my Fire TV, but can't use it to comment. I have to go into RUclips via the internet in order to comment. So here goes: For the last 7 years, we've lived in Texas (a rural area an hour south of Dallas). Prior to that, we lived in a suburban area about 10 miles south of Denver, CO. Talk about a CULTURE SHOCK! We've also lived in Cape Canaveral/Cocoa Beach, FL. The Denver housing market is WAY high, but there are areas of Texas where the home buyer's market is still really low. So, that large house in TX you were so envious of may still be pretty affordable. For instance, we were able to sell our home in the Denver area getting a HUGE profit. The profit was so great that we were then able to buy a home here in TX on a one-acre tract of land with cash -- so we now actually really own this property, no mortgage at all. So maybe one day, if you actually move to the USA, we'll be neighbors! I know we Americans would welcome you with open arms. 🗽
Ode to Cheese. In the glow of twilight's gentle ease, My heart swells for melted cheese. Golden rivers, creamy streams, Flowing through my deepest dreams. A symphony of warmth and taste, With each bite, there's no time to waste. The soft embrace, the stringy pull, Of melted cheese, my senses full. On pizza, nachos, toasted bread, A blanket for my hunger fed. In casseroles and fondue pots, A love like this is never bought. It stretches wide, it pulls me near, A comfort that's forever dear. In every dish, a heartfelt plea, For the magic found in melted cheese. So here's to cheddar, Swiss, and Brie, The joys they bring eternally. A love that's rich, and oh, so grand, In every melted, cheesy strand.
The soda thing, and sanitization is not true. They come out of the dispenser just like soda, so there’s really no chance that they’ll touch the ice. Also, it’s very common to have free refills so the less product claim is also false.
I just wanna point out that America isn't as fat as media or people who have never been here would have you believe! We have huge people fat people obese people regular people jacke people fit people lean people, regular people skinny people and bony people just like every other civilized country with food but here around mid 20s people stop moving around as much until 30 hits then they start working out and getting in shape or continue to drink until they die
Double Shot is closed, and was just a gun store/ liquor store. It is illegal to possess or use a firearm under the influence of alcohol in most places, including Tennessee
I live in the mountains of East Tennessee. We drink and shoot simultaneously in our back yards(which are acres in size) about every weekend. Usually every other other Wednesday too. Lol
Ice doesn’t water down the drink in the US…because you drink it before it does and get a refill…over and over. It also doesn’t melt as fast when there is a lot of ice. So you get more drink actually.
9:00 Doesn't the UK have a 20% sales tax called "VAT" Value Added Tax? I've been all over the world and most countries have a higher sales tax than most US states. As pointed out some states don't have sales taxes and some states with high sales taxes have no taxes on groceries.
True here as well. Just because something is illegal doesn't mean it isn't done frequently. The law pertains to selling/buying alcohol and varies by location. 🍺
It’s not true that alcohol sales are banned on Sunday, at least in the entire state of Mississippi and Tennessee. Alcohol sales in Mississippi are regulated by local laws voted on by the people in that community. Not by state laws. True that some communities still ban the sale on Sundays. Some ban the sale period. But, it’s not very common. All anyone who lives in a dry area has to do is take a short trip to the next county over and buy it. It’s common sense to allow the sale and profit from the tax rather than let it go to another locality.
Cheese is awesome but in moderation. I wanted to mention the huge burger. Some restaurants offer a colossal size food item, but it's not commonly ordered. It usually is esten as a challenge with some sort of reward if you eat it all. Love you man.
The law in Kansas regarding buying alcohol on Sunday's changed about 10 years ago. The only thing now is you can only buy it between the hours of 12pm-8pm on Sunday's.
Melted cheese is absoultely amazing and belongs on any non-sweet food! As to the list, some of the things (ice in drinks, tipping, sales tax and using the American measuring system instead of the metric system) are factual. Others (like the being able to purchase alcohol and shoot guns at the same business) are more of a regional thing that would be considered very strange in other parts of the US. The giant food portions are just a gimmick that some restaurants use to get people into their restaurants to see someone take on the "eat all of this giant burger/steak and it's free" challenge. Hardly anyone ever "wins" that kind of challenge, and the few who do usually need medical attention afterwards, but people will come in to watch them try and will usually buy normal food and drinks to consume while watching, increasing the profits of the restaurant.
While it's true that liquor stores are closed on Sundays in Mississippi, you can buy beer 24/7. Plus, bars are open as well. It does vary by county, tho.
Not accurate. The liquor and guns is a store that sold both, for example The reasoning there is that, in some areas, it’s extremely hard to get a liquor license and they are worth huge money. It’s an investment. You have to keep them active, as well. It was probably a liquor store the new owner (likely a descendant) had no interest in, but knew the license could literally be his retirement plan, so kept it active and turned it into a gun store, which he did have interest in.
Yeah, they can pay the wait staff more, so you don't have to tip, but the increase is going to be passed right along to the customer in higher prices for whatever you are buying.
In most states, mine being South Carolina, if you have a concealed weapons permit, you can’t sit at a bar or drink alcohol in an establishment if you are carrying. 😉
I don't think many states allow drinking & shooting at the same establishment. That humongous burger is not a 'snack' in the U.S. It's a challenge burger at a few restaurants; if you can eat the whole thing you don't have to pay for it. The OTT of the American Flag & patriotism cheapens what it means. Love melted cheese but then I'm from Wisconsin, the cheese state of the country. Never heard of a freedom angel (and yes, I live in a snow state.) Guns aren't loved by all Americans; plenty of us don't own a gun & don't want one in our home. 20% tip is much higher than what we're expected to pay in my city. At one time they tried to switch us to the metric system; everyone bulked & that took care of that.
I love being 'without outer wear'.. but usually just for my man.. still, if given the chance I will let my 'stuff' out.. please do not pour bleach in your eyes! lol..
Where do these keep coming from? Drinking and guns!? Not only have I never seen it, I’ve never heard of it. As for the rest of it I won’t even bother. 😂
Correction we like quality and quantity That stacked huge burger is a challenge some restaurants offer and if you can finish the meal you get something for free Like the meal for everyone or 3-6 month free food for yourself
Adam most of this video is exaggerated shock and awe lol. Come across the pond and I’ll put you on my burger food truck and we’ll have a real American weekend! 😂
Wonder how old the video was? The sales tax in WA is over 9%, not the 6.5% shown. Guessing then that most of the other states are also higher than advertised...
I LOVE CHEESE. Fun Fact: American cheese is the absolute best melting cheese. Ppl say American cheese is fake cheese but it’s not. American cheese is cheddar cheese that is softened with cream or milk. That’s why it’s so pliable and easy to melt and has a slight tangy taste. Just about ANYTHING can be spiced up with some American cheese by throwing it on top of food about 30 seconds to a minute before it’s done cooking. Kraft American sliced cheese is perfection.
No income tax in Florida Property tax is much lower in Florida than NYS which is a state that taxes everything. Our expense here in Florida is mostly home insurance.
Adam! Happy Sunday, here in Texas we ❤ melted cheese. Of course it's TexMex style and called queso! Our neighbors in Arkansas have a annual cheese dip championship!
As an American I don't know what the rest of the world does and frankly. I don't care what they do as we say here you do your thing and we'll do our thing. 😊
I’m interested in learning about other countries and how they do things, but I’ve lived in America all my life and I can’t imagine doing it any other way
Some people feel like the fly by over the sport stadiums is a waste of tax money. But those people don't really know what they are talking about. The military has always had a rock hard mega huge boner for training and never misses an opportunity to train. Spectators see a good show, but Uncle Sam sees it as an opportunity to train, for pilots to get their flight hours in, and do low altitude flights. The air show is just a side bonus.
I went to college in Louisiana in a "dry" parish (think county) where you couldn't buy any alcohol at all. One of my favorite RUclips channels is a British guy who's a competitive eater called "Beardmeetsfood". He rarely loses.
I was born and raised in Georgia, USA (due north of Florida). I’m an overweight dude. The reason is it’s VERY EASY to gorge yourself if you have the money (which most of the time I don’t 😉😉😉). My #1 vice is definitely cheese. Besides blue cheese, Munster, and Swiss I’ve tried countless varieties 😋😋😋. I know you’re fit but I know you absolutely love cheese as I do 👍👍👍.
When I was 3 years old, my parents took me and my baby brother to that was called Tucson Electric Park (what is now known as Kino Stadium) and we participated in an event following the September 11th terrorist attacks where a crowd of people wearing red, white and blue shirts were arranged to make a giant mosaic American flag.
Melted cheese rules. I'll put cheese in everything I can. 2 things about tipping. 1. You're going to pay for it either way. They raise wages then food prices go up to cover it. 2. Tipping guarantees better service a lot of the time. Some people take pride in providing good service but a lot don't. If they're getting paid no matter what then a lot are going to do as little as possible.
I don't know of anyone who gets drunk and goes shooting guns - unless you live in the boonies😂 THAT BURGER IS NOT AN AFTERNOON SNACK😂😂 Some restaurants have super sized burgers/steaks/etc. But they're purchased in order to participate in a challenge and very very few can complete those challenges. But if you do, you get a cute pic on their wall. Also, what the hell is a bullet/freedom angel?😅 never seen anyone do that.
#1 in some states, kids as young as 15 can drink too, as long as their parents are accompanying them. At any establishment that serves alcohol, like a restaurant.
That skyscraper burger is not remotely normal. It costs a fortune and IF you can finish it, you get a t-shirt and your picture on the wall. Check out Randy Santel. He’s a competitive eater and he travels far and wide (Australia, UK, Japan and many countries as well as all over the U.S.). Beard Meats Food, Katina Eats Kilos do as well.
I'm from Wisconsin. We are the dairy state which means we have 100 types of cheese everywhere. Aisles of cheese in grocery stores. My thoughts on melted cheese? Of course, Yum 😊
Mississippi and Tennessee do not ban alcohol on Sundays. Liquor stores are closed on Sundays but not bars and you can buy beer on Sundays. Arkansas does ban all alcohol and beer sales on Sundays “resort” areas.
Some American men wore speedos (or similar clingy, form-fitting trunks) from the 1930s through 1980s, or thereabouts, but they have been out of fashion for the past few decades now.
Portion sizes are the result of many restaurants being close together, so someone came up with the idea we will give a bit more food for your money as a means of bringing in the customers, and it quickly got out of hand. You know the old value for money thing.
You can't buy Jack Daniels whiskey in the Tennessee county where it is made. The state of Tennessee never officially became "wet" after Prohibition ended in the 1930s, but the state allowed individual counties to vote to go wet or remain dry only if there were a certain minimum number of voters residing in the county seat. The county where JD is made has never *reached* that number, so under state law, they can't even vote on it. However, the Tennessee legislature granted a one-time permit some years ago to sell a commemorative bottle of JD on the distillery premises, but they can't serve you any. Pro tip: if you take the distillery tour and your guide likes you, they'll lift the wooden flap on the yards-deep charcoal mellowing column and wave it a few times so you can get a good noseful. 😜
I believe the ice thing started because American summers are hot in most of the USA and that it just gradually became a thing for the whole year. Personally, I don't enjoy a cold drink unless it has a lot of ice and in fact, I prefer Pepsi with lots of ice and a tad of the water it creates in the soda as opposed to it's original taste just cold from the fridge. This is true of lemonade and of course, iced tea, etc. I also think that because more Americans may have had central heating all over the house in winter before some other places in the world, a cold drink in a warm house in winter was not an issue as it would be if you were drinking and iced drink in a chilly house.
In Texas you can bring your gun into bars, I was in Mickey Gillies, a bar, and it was like being in the old west, every person had a sidearm in their holster .

I normally get little ice. I drink two, with a refill, and get a lid to take the third fill home---usually something non-"fizzy."

You can also roll the jalapeno w cheese in breadcrumbs and deep fry.
Take that cheese stuffed jalapeño and wrap it in a bacon slice and throw it on the smoker. Yum.
Drink ice should NEVER be handled by hand. Ever.
You'd be surprised how many dirty ass restaurant workers do that shit
I’ve never seen this done. What kind of psycho would do that outside of their own home after washing their hands?
Its less common now, but a lot of restaurants used to have the continuous flow of ice into a bin that you scoop from. The hotel ice machines were like that too. They are getting replaced but some are slower than others about it.
True!
4:05 Dude is in a hospital gown. That's what you'll be wearing if you eat this. And I don't know ANYONE who's eaten this type of monstrosity. It's insane. Ridiculous.
I'm in middle Tennessee and the liquor stores open at 10 am on Sunday. Tennessee is not a dry state on Sunday and drinking while shooting is frowned upon.
As a young adult i was a waiter. Never expected tips if the cook screwed up or if i forgot something but was greatful when i did. As an older adult i refuse to tip Subway,Coffee Shops, Grocery store baggers, ect.
Coffee shops are restaurants. Except for places like Starbucks or Petes.
That is correct imo
Many, many coffee shops base their wages around tips received....you are the a-hole that no barista likes...make your coffee at home and be done with it.
@@jcruz4759 i make my own coffee. Not a Soy Boy he/him like you.
@@jcruz4759 im not tippiing a barista at starbucks or dunkin donuts its like the fast food of coffee if it was a restaurant sure
If you don't finish your meal, some restaurants will give you a "doggie bag". Sometimes you need to pack it, sometimes they will.
I’ve NEVER even HEARD OF a restaurant or bar or any other place following customers outside because they didn’t tip, I’m from NY too.
No one says anything if you don't tip. No one cares. Everyones disposable income is down at the moment. Servers know that too. Anyone acting entitled to your money is undeserving of it. Everyone acts like you're robbing a server if you dont tip some rediculous amount because "they make less than minimum wage." Which they don't. That's a talking point that hasn't been the case in decades. Their official pay rate is lower than minimum wage because of the tips. But if they don't end up making at least minimum wage with the tips it's then the legal responsibility of the business to make up the difference. Actually illegal if they don't.
That’s because everyone that has watched the Sopranos knows what happens when you do that
In the land of dairy dreams, where curds and whey entwine,
I declare my love for melted cheese, oh how it makes me shine.
From bubbling fondue rivers to gooey pizza slices,
Each molten moment is a symphony of savory spices.
Gruyère, my muse, dances on my taste buds,
Cheddar whispers secrets in its golden floods.
And when brie embraces baguette, soft and warm,
I'm lost in a cheese-filled reverie, free from all harm.
So here's to the dairy delight that melts hearts,
A love affair with cheese that never departs.
Whether grilled, baked, or simply sliced thin,
Melted cheese, my dear friend, you always win.

Alligator wrestling is something we do that I don’t think many other countries do ?
[Steve Irwin's ghost] What?
"we" is a questionable way of describing it. There are a few exhibitions that involve alligator-wrestling. It is not something to do on a lark. But since the US and China are the only countries with native alligator populations (and theirs are endangered in the wild), the US would be the only place to have such exhibitions.
@@thomasmacdiarmid8251 I stand corrected.
The Seminole Indians did it before we arrived here. They do the gator wrestling shows that you speak of & are sparsely spread, or perform at Powwow’s, as well as some non native groups today both static & fairs.
However, there is a sizable population of rednecks spread throughout the state, but also the other rural areas in other southern states. I can tell you that for many young men it is a “right of passage”. For many it’s barbecue entertainment. It is not legal without those permits & despite what tiktok portrays, rednecks are much much smarter than they appear and don’t film that, and post it.
Also “we” didn’t necessarily mean, “all Americans”. Also we have people catching catfish barehanded too. Not everybody does it. Not everybody plays football either. So when I say “we” I simply meant it is practiced here, and I don’t think anyone else does despite most developed countries having zoos with alligators, the only thing stopping them is desire. Only have I seen or heard of it here.
1:25 This actually refers to bars being restricted from serving drinks on certain days and times. Stores selling booze aren't actually serving booze and there's a big legal difference between the two.
Mexican food where the cheese is melted and just the very edge of it is crispy. That's the best.
You can ask for "Easy Ice". If you ask for easy ice you will just get a drink where only 25/30% is ice
Easy ice sounds non refreshing and a little stale imo.. xo
@@suefantastic4584 really? I never thought about how it sounded, it's just the phrase that's used in food service by a customer who wants less ice in their glass. But actually as I think about it, it sounds like the name of a wine spritzer or a frozen fruit drink mix that you would get at a beach resort or cruise ship
I am a new subscriber, only finding one of your channels about a month ago. And I just LOVE watching your videos. You are not only charming, but also entertaining. So, when I saw you talking about your newest channel (this one), I subscribed to it also on the very first day.
I have heard you say you like reading our comments, hearing a little bit about us, etc.. I usually watch videos via my Fire TV, but can't use it to comment. I have to go into RUclips via the internet in order to comment. So here goes:
For the last 7 years, we've lived in Texas (a rural area an hour south of Dallas). Prior to that, we lived in a suburban area about 10 miles south of Denver, CO. Talk about a CULTURE SHOCK! We've also lived in Cape Canaveral/Cocoa Beach, FL.
The Denver housing market is WAY high, but there are areas of Texas where the home buyer's market is still really low. So, that large house in TX you were so envious of may still be pretty affordable. For instance, we were able to sell our home in the Denver area getting a HUGE profit. The profit was so great that we were then able to buy a home here in TX on a one-acre tract of land with cash -- so we now actually really own this property, no mortgage at all.
So maybe one day, if you actually move to the USA, we'll be neighbors! I know we Americans would welcome you with open arms. 🗽
Ode to Cheese.
In the glow of twilight's gentle ease,
My heart swells for melted cheese.
Golden rivers, creamy streams,
Flowing through my deepest dreams.
A symphony of warmth and taste,
With each bite, there's no time to waste.
The soft embrace, the stringy pull,
Of melted cheese, my senses full.
On pizza, nachos, toasted bread,
A blanket for my hunger fed.
In casseroles and fondue pots,
A love like this is never bought.
It stretches wide, it pulls me near,
A comfort that's forever dear.
In every dish, a heartfelt plea,
For the magic found in melted cheese.
So here's to cheddar, Swiss, and Brie,
The joys they bring eternally.
A love that's rich, and oh, so grand,
In every melted, cheesy strand.
❤
The soda thing, and sanitization is not true. They come out of the dispenser just like soda, so there’s really no chance that they’ll touch the ice. Also, it’s very common to have free refills so the less product claim is also false.
I was in the military at 18 but stationed in Germany and was able to drink
Love you.. thank you.. xo
I just wanna point out that America isn't as fat as media or people who have never been here would have you believe! We have huge people fat people obese people regular people jacke people fit people lean people, regular people skinny people and bony people just like every other civilized country with food but here around mid 20s people stop moving around as much until 30 hits then they start working out and getting in shape or continue to drink until they die
my ex is 61 y/o and still a professional athlete.. Im a little chunky, but as a nurse I know my limits.. Its about quality, not quantity. xo
Double Shot is closed, and was just a gun store/ liquor store. It is illegal to possess or use a firearm under the influence of alcohol in most places, including Tennessee
There are quite a few shooting ranges attached to bar and grills, but I’ve never been to one that allows you to shoot after you consumed alcohol
I live in the mountains of East Tennessee. We drink and shoot simultaneously in our back yards(which are acres in size) about every weekend. Usually every other other Wednesday too. Lol
Ice doesn’t water down the drink in the US…because you drink it before it does and get a refill…over and over. It also doesn’t melt as fast when there is a lot of ice. So you get more drink actually.
In most states you only have to be 21 to purchase not drink. Plenty of states allow for dinking at any age on privet property.
Cheese, Breakfast, lunch, dinner. I burned my toast dude.
That burger is just a gimmick. It's one of those: "Hey, Joey - I dare you to eat it." type of things.
9:00 Doesn't the UK have a 20% sales tax called "VAT" Value Added Tax? I've been all over the world and most countries have a higher sales tax than most US states. As pointed out some states don't have sales taxes and some states with high sales taxes have no taxes on groceries.
LOL, live in Ireland, if you can blink then you can drink !
God created whiskey to keep the Irish from taking over the world.
True here as well. Just because something is illegal doesn't mean it isn't done frequently. The law pertains to selling/buying alcohol and varies by location. 🍺
It’s not true that alcohol sales are banned on Sunday, at least in the entire state of Mississippi and Tennessee. Alcohol sales in Mississippi are regulated by local laws voted on by the people in that community. Not by state laws. True that some communities still ban the sale on Sundays. Some ban the sale period. But, it’s not very common. All anyone who lives in a dry area has to do is take a short trip to the next county over and buy it. It’s common sense to allow the sale and profit from the tax rather than let it go to another locality.
Cheese is awesome but in moderation. I wanted to mention the huge burger. Some restaurants offer a colossal size food item, but it's not commonly ordered. It usually is esten as a challenge with some sort of reward if you eat it all. Love you man.
The law in Kansas regarding buying alcohol on Sunday's changed about 10 years ago. The only thing now is you can only buy it between the hours of 12pm-8pm on Sunday's.
Melted cheese is absoultely amazing and belongs on any non-sweet food! As to the list, some of the things (ice in drinks, tipping, sales tax and using the American measuring system instead of the metric system) are factual. Others (like the being able to purchase alcohol and shoot guns at the same business) are more of a regional thing that would be considered very strange in other parts of the US. The giant food portions are just a gimmick that some restaurants use to get people into their restaurants to see someone take on the "eat all of this giant burger/steak and it's free" challenge. Hardly anyone ever "wins" that kind of challenge, and the few who do usually need medical attention afterwards, but people will come in to watch them try and will usually buy normal food and drinks to consume while watching, increasing the profits of the restaurant.
First problem, "things only we do"
Dudes got a thick(ish) European accent.
While it's true that liquor stores are closed on Sundays in Mississippi, you can buy beer 24/7. Plus, bars are open as well. It does vary by county, tho.
Less ice means the ice melts and waters down your drink. A lotta ice means your drink stays cold and doesn't get watered down.
I agree
Sometimes though the drinks are already cold so to avoid not having enough in my cup o just get no ice
Makes you drink it faster.. in the case of adult beverages, this is a bonus for the house.. Im not mad.. lol
And for non adult beverages there are usually (maybe always) free refills. So no worries
A Lotta ice means the ice doesn’t melt?!?!! “ never go full retard“
Nearly every person I know that is a server in this country makes WAY more money vie tips than they would if the restaurant paid them more.
The fact is military personnel can buy and drink alcohol on bass even if you're 18
Oh hell no we will never go to the metric system😂😂
That is the only gun shop and bar I'm aware of. That 20k calorie burger is a food challenge item. Free refills, so who cares how much ice is in it
Not accurate. The liquor and guns is a store that sold both, for example
The reasoning there is that, in some areas, it’s extremely hard to get a liquor license and they are worth huge money. It’s an investment. You have to keep them active, as well.
It was probably a liquor store the new owner (likely a descendant) had no interest in, but knew the license could literally be his retirement plan, so kept it active and turned it into a gun store, which he did have interest in.
COLD OR MELTED: CHEESE ROCKS!!! :) Hugs from Texas, Adam!!
Yeah, they can pay the wait staff more, so you don't have to tip, but the increase is going to be passed right along to the customer in higher prices for whatever you are buying.
No one chases you outside....oh god this guy
In most states, mine being South Carolina, if you have a concealed weapons permit, you can’t sit at a bar or drink alcohol in an establishment if you are carrying. 😉
A note on filling the glass with ice we usually have unlimited refills so get as much ice as you want and keep your cup filled up.
The Heart Attack Grill is a marketing gimmic. No one eats that garbage.
I don't think many states allow drinking & shooting at the same establishment. That humongous burger is not a 'snack' in the U.S. It's a challenge burger at a few restaurants; if you can eat the whole thing you don't have to pay for it. The OTT of the American Flag & patriotism cheapens what it means. Love melted cheese but then I'm from Wisconsin, the cheese state of the country. Never heard of a freedom angel (and yes, I live in a snow state.) Guns aren't loved by all Americans; plenty of us don't own a gun & don't want one in our home. 20% tip is much higher than what we're expected to pay in my city. At one time they tried to switch us to the metric system; everyone bulked & that took care of that.
Breakfast cereal is about the only thing not improved by adding melted cheese.
I love cheese in any form: melted, crumbled, sliced or grated.
Me too, Mark!! xo
There are "nude beaches" all over the country. The US changed the national system of measurement to metric in 1976. No one chose to use it.
Serves no purpose for the US to switch. Just burns an astronomical amount of money to make people who don't live here feel more comfortable.
I love being 'without outer wear'.. but usually just for my man.. still, if given the chance I will let my 'stuff' out.. please do not pour bleach in your eyes! lol..
Most of these examples like big burger and the bar with guns are one off's. In 99% of the US it's illegal to use firearms while intoxicated
Where do these keep coming from? Drinking and guns!? Not only have I never seen it, I’ve never heard of it. As for the rest of it I won’t even bother. 😂
Correction we like quality and quantity
That stacked huge burger is a challenge some restaurants offer and if you can finish the meal you get something for free
Like the meal for everyone or 3-6 month free food for yourself
Adam most of this video is exaggerated shock and awe lol. Come across the pond and I’ll put you on my burger food truck and we’ll have a real American weekend! 😂
Wonder how old the video was? The sales tax in WA is over 9%, not the 6.5% shown. Guessing then that most of the other states are also higher than advertised...
I LOVE CHEESE.
Fun Fact:
American cheese is the absolute best melting cheese. Ppl say American cheese is fake cheese but it’s not. American cheese is cheddar cheese that is softened with cream or milk. That’s why it’s so pliable and easy to melt and has a slight tangy taste. Just about ANYTHING can be spiced up with some American cheese by throwing it on top of food about 30 seconds to a minute before it’s done cooking.
Kraft American sliced cheese is perfection.
No SALES or INCOME tax in New Hampshire
florida too lol
I'll bet your property taxes are through the roof.
No income tax in Florida
Property tax is much lower in Florida than NYS which is a state that taxes everything. Our expense here in Florida is mostly home insurance.
Adam! Happy Sunday, here in Texas we ❤ melted cheese. Of course it's TexMex style and called queso! Our neighbors in Arkansas have a annual cheese dip championship!
As an American I don't know what the rest of the world does and frankly. I don't care what they do as we say here you do your thing and we'll do our thing. 😊
I’m interested in learning about other countries and how they do things, but I’ve lived in America all my life and I can’t imagine doing it any other way
Well then, seems you took the question to a whole different level. Why so serious? What's really bothering you?
Bingo!
Sales tax in Illinois where I live is 10.25% now
@@cslammon I'm in jersey it's 7% unless it's an urban enterprise zone it's 3 1/2%
Some people feel like the fly by over the sport stadiums is a waste of tax money. But those people don't really know what they are talking about. The military has always had a rock hard mega huge boner for training and never misses an opportunity to train. Spectators see a good show, but Uncle Sam sees it as an opportunity to train, for pilots to get their flight hours in, and do low altitude flights. The air show is just a side bonus.
I went to college in Louisiana in a "dry" parish (think county) where you couldn't buy any alcohol at all. One of my favorite RUclips channels is a British guy who's a competitive eater called "Beardmeetsfood". He rarely loses.
"3.15 trillion miles, or enough miles to drive to Pluto" we will use anything as a measurement except the metric system.
I was born and raised in Georgia, USA (due north of Florida). I’m an overweight dude. The reason is it’s VERY EASY to gorge yourself if you have the money (which most of the time I don’t 😉😉😉). My #1 vice is definitely cheese. Besides blue cheese, Munster, and Swiss I’ve tried countless varieties 😋😋😋. I know you’re fit but I know you absolutely love cheese as I do 👍👍👍.
sexy
When I was 3 years old, my parents took me and my baby brother to that was called Tucson Electric Park (what is now known as Kino Stadium) and we participated in an event following the September 11th terrorist attacks where a crowd of people wearing red, white and blue shirts were arranged to make a giant mosaic American flag.
In most states guns and alcohol are illegal to mix.
Melted cheese rules. I'll put cheese in everything I can.
2 things about tipping. 1. You're going to pay for it either way. They raise wages then food prices go up to cover it. 2. Tipping guarantees better service a lot of the time. Some people take pride in providing good service but a lot don't. If they're getting paid no matter what then a lot are going to do as little as possible.
I don't know of anyone who gets drunk and goes shooting guns - unless you live in the boonies😂
THAT BURGER IS NOT AN AFTERNOON SNACK😂😂 Some restaurants have super sized burgers/steaks/etc. But they're purchased in order to participate in a challenge and very very few can complete those challenges. But if you do, you get a cute pic on their wall.
Also, what the hell is a bullet/freedom angel?😅 never seen anyone do that.
NY sales tax in my area (Long Island) for regular retail products is 8.625%, has been since I stated in retail in 2010
#1 in some states, kids as young as 15 can drink too, as long as their parents are accompanying them. At any establishment that serves alcohol, like a restaurant.
Did.... did they really say "Raptor flybys" and then show video of F15 Eagles?
That skyscraper burger is not remotely normal. It costs a fortune and IF you can finish it, you get a t-shirt and your picture on the wall. Check out Randy Santel. He’s a competitive eater and he travels far and wide (Australia, UK, Japan and many countries as well as all over the U.S.). Beard Meats Food, Katina Eats Kilos do as well.
I'm from Wisconsin. We are the dairy state which means we have 100 types of cheese everywhere. Aisles of cheese in grocery stores. My thoughts on melted cheese? Of course, Yum 😊
Its over 37C today here. We need our ice cubes!
4:25 yeah.. nobody here eats this nonsensical 'burger.' it's a gimmick for rich tourists.
There is nothing better than melted cheese, Adam.
I am lactose intolerant and I will still eat that shit.
SO GOOD.
I have made leaf angels & mud angels but never an ammo angel.
Mississippi and Tennessee do not ban alcohol on Sundays. Liquor stores are closed on Sundays but not bars and you can buy beer on Sundays. Arkansas does ban all alcohol and beer sales on Sundays “resort” areas.
Very few shooting ranges will allow alcohol at a shooting range
There are some shops in the US that you can use the drive-thru (or take away window) and buy alcohol and ammo.
American men do not wear speedos. You’ll see it occasionally but seems to be foreigners vacationing. And I live off Florida west coast.
Some American men wore speedos (or similar clingy, form-fitting trunks) from the 1930s through 1980s, or thereabouts, but they have been out of fashion for the past few decades now.
No brother, that burger is not an afternoon snack! 😂
Ah yes the liquor and gun stores. Two things that shouldn't mix but for some bass ackwards reason does 😂
Portion sizes are the result of many restaurants being close together, so someone came up with the idea we will give a bit more food for your money as a means of bringing in the customers, and it quickly got out of hand. You know the old value for money thing.
You can't buy Jack Daniels whiskey in the Tennessee county where it is made. The state of Tennessee never officially became "wet" after Prohibition ended in the 1930s, but the state allowed individual counties to vote to go wet or remain dry only if there were a certain minimum number of voters residing in the county seat. The county where JD is made has never *reached* that number, so under state law, they can't even vote on it. However, the Tennessee legislature granted a one-time permit some years ago to sell a commemorative bottle of JD on the distillery premises, but they can't serve you any.
Pro tip: if you take the distillery tour and your guide likes you, they'll lift the wooden flap on the yards-deep charcoal mellowing column and wave it a few times so you can get a good noseful. 😜
Not him dissing Colin Kaepernick @5:56
Cheese is the food of Gods.
You are correct, that burger is for competitive pigs and/or drunk Vegas tourists. It's a novelty.
I'm a Texan ... of course I love melted cheese! Especially queso.
I believe the ice thing started because American summers are hot in most of the USA and that it just gradually became a thing for the whole year. Personally, I don't enjoy a cold drink unless it has a lot of ice and in fact, I prefer Pepsi with lots of ice and a tad of the water it creates in the soda as opposed to it's original taste just cold from the fridge. This is true of lemonade and of course, iced tea, etc. I also think that because more Americans may have had central heating all over the house in winter before some other places in the world, a cold drink in a warm house in winter was not an issue as it would be if you were drinking and iced drink in a chilly house.
In Texas you can bring your gun into bars, I was in Mickey Gillies, a bar, and it was like being in the old west, every person had a sidearm in their holster .
