we have chocolate eggs and the drive through pharmacies are basically the same as walking inside, giving your order and prescription then waiting. You just show up twice or phone ahead and show up an hour later.
Buffalo Wings dipped in ranch dressing are to die for. Delicious!

Peeps are the only "food" that actually taste better after being microwaved. Marshmallow/coconut/nasty.
@@PrimRoseLane actually there are a bunch of produce that is better to cook in a microwave than other methods. Because the microwave cooks so much faster than other methods they don't lose the health benefits. Taste is a bit more suggestive but bacon can yield great results consistently.
Drive through pharmacy with a sick kid in the car in the winter is an absolute godsend.
American pharmacies are not marked with a Green Cross. Green Crosses indicate a shop that sells Marijuana where it is legal.
A red cross usually means The American Red Cross which is a charity that helps people who help those who experience a disaster like tornado, earthquake or fire etc.
We have chocolate eggs, chocolate bunnies, pastel-colored M&Ms, pastel foil wrapped Hershey's Kisses, and many other candies.... AND peeps for Easter. Not JUST Peeps.
The "sink waste disposal" we just call the "garbage disposal" - and yes, they are awesome!
Also “Robin Eggs” which are egg shaped malted milk balls covered with chocolate AND a powdery coating over the top.
Peeps are one of those things that you either love or hate, there's no middle ground. They're pretty much only sold in stores around Easter season (March-April). I personally think they're an affront to nature, but my mom loves them.
They started putting out Peeps for other holidays now. Trees for Christmas and Hearts for Valentine's etc. I used to love Peeps as a kid. I can't stand them them now, too sweet!
I love them so much
HATE
I’m that 0.001% middle ground. I both love and despise them
I love peeps but I open the packs and put them in the cupboard for a few days to a week or so. They dry and harden some and aren't as goey.
The Hidden Valley Ranch was a type of resort known as "dude ranch." Basically, it was a place that people could stay for a while to get a taste of life as a cowboy, but with relatively comfortable accommodations. I believe it was in California. Anyway, the owners of the ranch provided meals to their guests, and that included salads topped with homemade dressing. Guests enjoyed this sauce so much they wanted to buy jars of it to bring home with them. Eventually they started shipping bottles of their sauce to former guests, and then a larger company bought the recipe and trademark so they could sell to the world.

We Americans enjoy our ranch dressing on all kinds of foods. I love dipping my buffalo wings in ranch!
Steven Henson a Nebraska native created ranch dressing while working in Alaska as a plumbing contractor.
Blue cheese always.
I'm tied between bleu cheese and ranch for best wing dipping sauce. Ranch is very versatile though.
@@BlueDebut the OG dip for wings is always blue cheese!
It's from Alaska.
As a single person, when you’re really sick, it’s very nice to pick up your prescription through the drive-through. They don’t always have a vacuum tube; it’s frequently a drawer that you can pass signatures and payment through, and they pass you your meds.
We got plenty of chocolate and varied candy type eggs in the USA also.
We have three possums that live under our back porch. They eat ticks, bugs, and are immune to rabies. Best of all they gobble up all the leftover food scraps. The cats ignore them and they ignore the cats.
Peeps are nasty. We get lots of candy and chocolate eggs (or shaped like bunnies) on Easter.
The pharmacy has a vacuum tube. There's a small cylinder container that you put things in and the pressure pushes it back and forth. This allows for a second drive thru lane that's not directly next to the building.
Edit: Lots of banks have several of these tubes and like three or four lanes at once.
Edit2: Possum are awesome. They eat lots of ticks! Buffalo wings is chicken wings that have a sauce that is from Buffalo New York.
And groceries w/ pharmacies attached do as well.
^^^Chinese spy. Peeps are more American than apple pie.
Peeps are not food.
@@BTinSFNo, they are more American than spray cheese, wax candy, fluffernutter sandwiches, root beer, and all the drugs that produced such madness.
And apple pie came from England, btw.
@@willcool713 Crafty English propaganda.
Ranch is the tastiest of dressings.
Drive through pharmacies are genuinely important to the quality of life and independence of a lot of people. I've had to go to the pharmacy to pick up medications for an elderly couple, I know friends who pick up medications for their parents who were quite old. But then a few years back we got a drive through pharmacy in town, and now that they can get their medications without getting out of the car, all those old people with mobility issues who need their medicine are no longer dependent on others to fulfill that need. There's only so many handicap parking spaces they can have, and even then some people can't physically stand up for a long time waiting in line.
Sorry to hear you lost your job.
You can send or have your prescription sent ahead, so the medicine is ready for you.
Drive through pharmacies are amazing. They are not for medications that you need to talk to a pharmacist about. They are for basic meds that have been prescribed by a doctor. So, for example, if your kid has just been diagnosed with a bacterial infection like strep throat the doctor’s office will electronically send the prescription to the pharmacy. From there, you can pick it up on your way home without dragging your sick kid out of the car and potentially exposing other people to your sick kid. It’s a great convenience and reduces the need for contagious folks to be out in public.
This is the prime reason they are so great and convenient.
We have lots of chocolate eggs and bunnies and so forth in the states. We just have peeps too, which are terrible.
^^^Another Chinese spy troll. No real American would say such a thing about Peeps.
fair :)
Ranch dressing varies wildly in composition and quality. A good "house" dressing (meaning made in-house at a restaurant) can be delicious, but there are also sludgy, oily, garbage ranch dressings full of who-knows-what.
Store bought. I make my own and it’s amazing.
The kitchen sink waste disposal, which we call “garbage disposal,” actually puts a strain on wastewater treatment.
Absolutely.
I think too the drive through pharmacy is a result of having pharmacies incorporated into larger stores. Groceries and big box stores often have pharmacies inside, and it's nice to be able to get your prescription without having to walk through the whole store. I don't see independent pharmacy locations much here anymore.
@6:22
In parts of the US there are actually drive through liquor stores; especially in Florida.
We get Chocolate Easter Eggs over here in the US. Most, but not all, people hate Peeps. There's no middle "I could take them or leave them" kind of like. Peeps are the devil or yummy... those are your choices. If Peeps were all we got, it would be a really boring Easter hunt and basket.
We have a garbage disposal. It's a great way to get rid of food scraps (veggie pieces and things, but not anything with bones). Keeps the trash from smelling.
And yes , buffalo wings are chicken wings broke in half . Usually cooked with a dry rub of spices . Yummmm . They’re usually served with a sauce. Ranch blue cheese for buffalo but any sauce really .
The opossum is the only North American Marsupial, possibly the only one found outside of Australia. My Londoner husband when he first saw one called it a "giant mega-rat", which is appropriate, but highly comical as well. When I lived in North Carolina, I took to throwing my food scraps out the back door for the local wildlife, and an opossum became a regular visitor. One day she seemed to linger to pick them up. Then I saw her call her five offspring come out of the bushes to eat with her. I felt very privileged that day that I had earned her trust.
Bumper stickers used to be a lot more common. Back in the eighties, at least half the cars on the road had more than one of the things. People would put bumper stickers on their car for their alma mater and/or favorite sports team (which are frequently the same thing), or for political candidates ("Bush / Quayle '88"), or for specific political issues ("You can have my guns when you pry them from my cold dead hands") or religious beliefs ("Jesus Saves"), but also people would have ones that they just thought were funny (e.g, "Pobody's Nerfect", "Warning: This car stops at all garage sales", "My other car is a cdr", etc.)
The technology you saw for the drive-through pharmacy was just a basic pneumatic-tube system, the same as you see at banks.
My favorite candy is Cadbury's Creme Eggs, only available around Easter! Of course, they make an alternative version called ''Scream Eggs'' for Halloween, but they're basically the same.
I remember when Ranch came onto the scene, back in the early 70's or late 60's. It came as little packets of the dry ingredients. My mother would put it in a quart cask, pour in milk, put the lid on and shake it up. As popular as it is, it is only about 50 years old.
Opossums are pretty awesome.
Peeps suck and we do have Easter eggs.
Opossums eat ticks. I love having a few in my yard.
Possums are adorable. I really don't get why people think they're ugly.
Chocolate bunnies are what most Americans get as an Eater candy! The drive throughs are life savers. Ranch dressing is especially kids favorite salad dressing. The sink disposal is for food scrapes and is loud! Buffalo wing is the flavoring used on the wings. I love to watch your reactions. Take care.
We do have chocolate eggs. Peeps are a flavored marshmallow candy that children seem to love. We have both... and sometimes the chocolate eggs are filled with white and yellow cream.
The original Buffalo Chicken Wing sauce is just half Frank's RedHot Sauce and half Melted Butter. Frank's RedHot Sauce is a Cayenne Pepper Vinegar based sauce. They're pretty simple, but spread throughout the US and the World.
Ranch is usually understood as a cattle or other animal being raised on land used exclusively for them. A long one story house can be called a ranch style house. The salad dressing was originally marked as Hidden Valley Ranch dressing by a company of the same name.
The drive through tubes are old technology. They are pneumatic tubes. They became popular in corporate offices for delivering mail in tall buildings like in the 1930’s. In the 1970’s they became popular at local small banks for making deposits and withdrawals but were replaced in the 80’s by ATM’s. In the 90’s pharmacies started using drive up windows for prescription pickups using the same pneumatic tubes banks had previously used.
I am so thankful for drive through pharmacies. They are fantastic for keeping contagious people out of the actual store. It’s also a relief when I feel horrible and the idea of walking into any place except a doctor’s office sounds like torture.
I believe there was a bit on The Simpsons where Marge puts a "Baby on Board" sticker on the family car after the birth of Bart, "So that people will stop intentionally ramming our car."
If you haven't yet seen a buffalo with wings, you're not drinking enough.
buffalo wings also refers to the TYPE of hot sauce. it's a very particular kind of hot sauce. if you google "buffalo hot sauce" you will probably see the brand Frank's and that sauce is what we toss the fried wings in. if you can get a bottle of the sauce i highly recommend. try it with a side of ranch dressing! we usually dip our buffalo wings in bleu cheese dressing or ranch dressing.
Ok. In America, a ranch is a type of farm that specializes in animals. Almost exclusively cows and horses. They are ubiquitous in the western part of the country
A ranch style house is the type of house traditionally seen on a ranch. They were orignally easy to build by a farm family or community without access to the rest of civilization
And Ranch dressing is actually called "Ranch Style dressing" just like the houses, because it was inspired by southwestern food traditions.
Animal husbandry is a huge part of our culture, which is why so much was influenced by ranch life.
We also use a pneumatic tubes at banks to send deposit slips or receive cash. My mom got her drivers license stuck underground in one years back. They had to tear up whole area to get it out. 😂
If you haven't read about the New York City pneumatic tube system, you should. They have sent whole live animals...
@rainbowraes Yea. The system they developed in New York was well done. Rumor has it there are still secret tubes still being used to send things. I can't remember the TV series that utilized abandoned tubes for some shady business.
This was a great video Andre. I really appreciate seeing how enthusiastic you are when it comes to learning about American traditions and ways in which we do things that differ from the rest of the world. Thank you for being such a great person
A ranch is a cattle farm. It's a piece of land because any kind of cattle farming requires a lot of land. It's a style of house because the main house of a ranch where the family lived often doubled as the office and might also be where the hired hands ate, so it was designed to accommodate a lot of people who may or may not live inside. I've never been sure where ranch dressing fit into that, but certainly all of the ingredients could be expected to be found on an old traditional, family-run ranch.
Another thing that some Americans have on their vehicles, specifically trucks, are--appropriately--called "truck nuts". As for the sign "Baby Aboard", it makes me think, "Oh, I was going to crash into you, but now I won't;"
A ranch is different from a farm in that ranches raise animals rather than crops. There are cattle ranches, horse ranches, and 'dude' ranches. Dude was once a word used (somewhat disparagingly) for a city person who was ignorant of country life and didn't have the skills required in that life. Those city people who wanted to experience the 'western' style of living and almost always to ride a horse, would pay to stay in accommodations on the ranch property and participate in activities provided by the owner (trail rides, campfires, country dances, and so on). Some dude ranches are still working ranches, raising beef cattle, etc. while operating the resort side of the business seasonally.
I think that drive throughs were made popular in northern states because of weather and in southern states for the same reason. Nobody wants to walk through the snow, rain and cold or intense heat.
I love that the guy holding the peeps in the video is wearing gloves.
Ranch dressing is delicious and super popular in the United States it was invented in California and most Americans do not put bumper stickers on their car at least where I live you almost never see them
Actually Ranch dressing was invented in Alaska. The inventor moved to CA after and started Hidden Valley Ranch which is when it became famous.
Yes, it’s a pedantic history lesson…😁
Chocolate eggs in various sizes have been popular in the US for many, many years. The same goes for chocolate in the shape of bunnies, flowers, baskets, bonnets/hats, etc.
Peeps are just one of those odd items that bring nostalgia to many. I'm 56 years old and remember getting Peeps in my Easter basket as a child. My mom had never tried them, but they were so popular,she bought some for my brother and me once. We kids didn't like them and neither did my mom.
Drive-thru pharmacies are extremely handy when you're sick and don't want to go inside, you have a sick child in the car, the weather is bad, a person has a hard time of walking, etc.
Do you guys have drive-thru dry cleaner service? We do. You drive up to the window, explain what you need to have cleaned or pressed, leave and drive back up to pick it up.
Slight irony having a small bowl of Ranch in the picture with the Buffalo Wings.
Funny i noticed too
He didn't mention that though ranch IS a salad dressing, odds are good if you see it, it's not on a salad. Ranch is generally the most popular dipping sauce in the US. If I get fries, chicken nuggets, fried zucchini, onion rings (really anything that's fried or that you dip) at a restaurant I'm asking for ranch. It comes with pizza at a lot of places too. People love it that way though I normally just save it for the crust. There's a spectrum of quality though. (I find it hard to find good ranch pre-made at the store but maybe I'm picky) it's generally good at any restaurant and there's almost nothing better than a side of fries with some house made ranch for dipping.
Your English sounds quite Eastern European ! Don’t feel bad! We love it here!!!
We have chocolate eggs at Easter (and Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs, as well), but chocolate bunnies are more common, plus the Peeps, Cadbury Creme eggs, and jelly beans.
Peeps are OK to eat once a yr. Yes on the drive thru pharmacy. Who has time to get out of the car? Garbage disposals are standard in a kitchen. Ranch is also a style of house. They are 1 story brick houses with shallow pitch roofs.
22. Yep, anything with Lawrence is great.
Cadbury eggs are not uncommon here. For some reason, people just all assume they have to also add peeps to easter baskets.
He never said Americans dont have chocolate eggs for Easter. We just have peeps as well as chocolate eggs....and several other Easter candies
Definition of peeps- 1. Eyes, also called peepers. 2. People of like minded or friends. 3. The marshmallow candy.
Drive through EVERYTHING! Banks, ATMs, pharmacies, liquor stores, grocery stores (you can order online and pick up or have them delivered).
Garbage disposal is like having a blender in your sink. It breaks down solids so it has a less likely chance of clogging the drain. Yes, it can be problematic if you drop a spoon or fork into it. Not designed for bones either...or human fingers. Good for practical jokes tho.
Bumper stickers are used to show your humor (My student can beat up your honor student), political views (you can have my gun when you pry it from my cold, dead fingers) and even just advertisements (favorite band, religion or school one is attending).
Love your channel and looking forward to watching more!
We would put radio station stickers on your bumper advertising your favourite station/music.You would usually pick these up at your neighborhood store.
Peeps are an Easter basket supplemental candy and not substitute for chocolate eggs or jelly beans. I don' know anyone who enjoys them yet they are a tradition and an inevitable part of any Easter basket. I did have two co--workers who had a fun Peeps tradition. They had a blue Peeps bunny candy that turned rock hard as it got old. One of them would hide the bunny somewhere in our company for the other to find. Often times it would take months to discover. The Peeps blue bunny hunt went on back and forth for years.
We have an insane amount of chocolate eggs. Peeps are common enough, but I also think they're pretty bad.
Also, to be unpopular for other Americans, I also really hate ranch dressing.
We have chocolate eggs too. Chocolate eggs come in different flavors like the cream egg, one filled with chocolate cream, caramel, peanut butter maybe there are more. We also have peeps at Easter, I love them, they also come in plain and flavored, I like the cotton candy flavored ones.
Buffalo wings are a specific hot sauce called Buffalo sauce, named after the city and sauce. It’s not super hot, it’s vinegar based, chili peppers, various, salts, peppers, etc. vinegar and a little chili heat are the main components
Peeps are nice to have one or two around Easter and then decide you are good to never eat them until next Easter. They aren’t good, but there’s sort of a nostalgia and tradition about them that I don’t hate them. We do have chocolate eggs too.
That WAS an awesome video, i agree with you Andre
Don't have any peeps. I'm not a marshmallow fan in general. However, I do have ranch in the fridge and a sink "disposall". Also called an "in-sink erator. Its only for food waste like fruit/vegetable peels, egg shells, food that sat in the fridge for too long and went bad etc. It keeps you from having to throw away food waste that makes your garbage stink and animals interested in the smell that causes them to tip your garbage can over spreading your trash up and down the street, I know this personally. I'd highly recommend!
I for one hate ranch dressing but Love Blue Cheese dressing on salads and to dip my Buffalo wings in. Peeps are disgusting way to much sugar on them.
I love peeps. They're marshmallows - don't know why they trigger people so much. Despite some people's belief, I've never had any in my house, never bought them. They just pop up around Easter...a nice, nostalgic thing to me, one of few things from my childhood still around today.
Buffalo sauce is a particular type of hot sauce that's got lots of butter in it. It actually pairs well with buttermilk Ranch dressing, as the fats in the dressing help soothe and insulate the tongue from the capsaicin in the hot sauce.
I like to add a bunch of shredded chicken and half a bottle of buffalo sauce to a baked pan of macaroni and cheese myself, topped afterwards with sour cream and Ranch spices.
I’ve never put a sticker on my car. I hate it I think it’s trashy looking. But yet a lot of cars will have a sticker. Every once in awhile you will see a car with a few different stickers but usually people will just have one or two smaller ones like the baby on board one.
What do you mean America doesn't have chocolate eggs? He didn't say that we didn't, he just said England doesn't have peeps and they have chocolate eggs instead. Of course we have chocolate eggs. I see them everywhere when Easter comes around. Various different kinds too. Along with chocolate rabbits and other Easter specific candy.
The drive-thru pharmacy tube... I've never seen that for a pharmacy.
I've only seen that at banks with drive-thru. That's fairly outdated technology by American standards because I remember it from back in the late 90 and I assume other places wouldn't be familiar with it because this system is what we used in the US to go to banks to withdraw or deposit money while being in our cars as a car heavy culture and yes, we had the option to walk into our banks if we wanted. The tube method isn't even in use anymore where I live but I guess where he is, it is still in use in some places - kind of surprising. The pharmacies I've been to with a drive-thru don't use tubes, they use an extending drawer on folding arms or a roll rail similar to those seen in chests of drawers. The pharmacist communicates through a window with a speaker and the drawer extends to the person in the car to give them their medication. The US is always looking to make things more convenient, especially in terms of our cars and home life.
Did you catch the part where he explained that 'ranch' was also a style of house in the US? It's quite common in the US. My grandparents used to live in a ranch style house, and I currently live in one as well. Ranch style homes more often than not come without the decent amount of land. Our neighbor's house is right on the edge of our driveway. Our front yard is only slightly bigger than our car and our backyard is about the size of 4 cars. Ranches don't always have land just as castles don't always have motes. There are many styles of homes in the US. Not just house or apartment, big or small, old or new.
Another nice reaction. You should check out more of Lawrence's Lost in the Pond videos. They're mostly short and lighthearted and Lawarence is very engaging. As you're a European, I think you'd enjoy Lawrence's perspective as an outsider to America(he spent the first 20+ years of his life in Britain begore moving to the States), but curious to find out more. I find it fascinating that much of what I as an American view as normal, seems odd to the rest of the world.
Eggs for Easter are easily the most popular commodity in America, especially chocolate. or regular- but decorated eggs. Peeps are just something that sticks out because they are so weird.
5:12... Never seen that big Cadbury egg before. Peeps are everywhere, and I'm in Canada!
And that's funny aboot the beds. My bedroom was 108" x 108". lol
22. I think you’d like his video on differences in pharmacies. We have a lot of drive through businesses. We also have drive up places like where they bring your groceries or restaurant food to your car. If you work it right, you can probably get all of your errands done and not get out of your vehicle once!
Buffalo Wing are supposed to be larger wings... and they "can be" cover in different levels of hot sauce. And accompanied with a dipping bowl of Ranch Dressing!
We also have chocolate eggs! They're called Cadbury Eggs. They are a chocolate shell with yummy creamy sugar inside.
I used to love Peeps as a kid lol
We do Easter eggs also. Peeps are just another candy that you see at Easter time. They are something you either hate or absolutely love! Drive thru pharmacies are super normal in the U.S. You tell your doctor what pharmacy you would like to pick up at and they call it in. They prepare at the pharmacy, you drive through, give them your info, and they give you your meds. Some of my meds that I have to have all the time, my doc fills the prescription and my pharmacy notifies me via text to see if I want to refill it and if so, they tell me when it is ready and I can drive through and grab it. It's super convenient.
We have Easter Eggs in America. Real ones, candy ones, and panorama eggs. Peeps are supposed to have flavors but you can't prove it by me.
By the way, I think you'd love a "Brew Through." It's a drive through liquor, beer, and wine store.
Garbage disposals have been around since the 1950s. Some towns require all houses to have them.
Opossums look like Muppet Monsters. They love to graze trash cans and waste dumps.
Buffalo Wings are highly seasoned chicken wings. Traditional Buffalo sauce is a mixture of butter, hot sauce, and garlic. Vinegar, Cayan Pepper, and Worchester Sauce, are common add ins.
I recall an early episode of MTV's The Real World that took place in in London. A young guy from the Midwest freak out when he discovered that the stores didn't carry Ranch Dressing.
André, I was born and raised in Texas. I'm over half a century old, and I have learned some things about the US from watching your reaction videos! 😂
PS - Many of us love dipping our pizza in ranch dressing. Actually, a good ranch dressing could be a snack by itself, IMHO.
🤣😂🤣 Thanks for a good laugh, enjoyed this quite a bit. Blessings
We ALSO have chocolate eggs & bunnies for Easter in the US
The chocolate egg in the upper right at around 5:08 is the same shape, but with different colored foil, and they're called Cadbury eggs over here.
Although I have never had to use them, if I drove up to a window after climbing out of bed to pick up some medicine because I was sick as a dog, I'd really appreciate not having to go into the store, exposing everyone to my special disease, as well as the less strenuous side of it all.
If I were to eat a salad, which hardly ever happens, as I consider them a waste of a good appetite, I'd put French dressing on it, which is a red sauce of some sort.
The TX King mattress is 2.03 x 2.49 m.
Opossums, shortened to 'possums, are, as a joke, called the "little flat creatures that live in the road", since they're really good at getting themselves killed by cars, due to their slowness in crossing streets.
Buffalo, NY is one of several decent-sized cities on Lake Erie which get slammed annually with tons of lake effect snow, causing cars and a good portions of homes to be buried in the white stuff, which can happen in any settlement along the 5 Great Lakes.
A few comments to explain -
Peeps are shaped like chicks and bunnies. Chicks make a peeping sound so that’s the name. We do also have lots of chocolate eggs!
Drive through pharmacies use pneumatic tubes to move the paper prescription. Banks have used these for a long time. At the one by my house, you have to be in the lane by the building to get the bottle of medication.
Ranch - Other viewers explained ranch dressing . Ranch houses are a construction style that originated on ranches.
Texas king mattress - never heard of it but I’m sure it exists somewhere.
Just went through the drive through pharmacy today. We have about ten here in my back woods country town.
"Ranch" can most-often refer to:
- A farm (tract of land) dedicated to raising and sale for slaughter of animals, especially a particular type of animal for that ranch (e.g. cattle).
- A non-serious hotel-like farm for educating and teaching visitors who stay there (a "dude ranch").
- A single family dwelling (house) design consisting of a single level above grade with perhaps a basement. A ranch-style house tends to have a larger footprint but no upper story.
- A creamy, dairy-based lettuce salad dressing, which happens to be good on many other things, too.
Ranch salad dressing is kind-of complicated. There are _MANY_ different recipes and forms of it, some of which are very tasty and some of which are not. It's my pet theory that a majority of people who think they do not like Ranch dressing have not had GOOD Ranch dressing. Ranch dressing's popularity lends it being marketed and sold in a variety of ways. One can walk into a grocery store and buy shelf-stable ranch dressing, and it's rather terrible. _Good_ ranch dressing automatically need refrigeration. It's based on buttermilk, mayonnaise, garlic and/or garlic salt, pepper, and traces of other choice spices. It's excellent on a lettuce salad (especially with lots of veggies!) but it's also a great dip for things like fresh vegetables, onion rings, french fries, potato chips, hot wings, etcetera. I'm pretty fond of chicken breast sandwiches on a bun, with cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, bacon, and ranch dressing. Yum!
The drive through suction tube for the pharmacy is also used by banks for drive through banking. Checks and cash go through the tubes🥰 (not the same as the ATM, i mean banking eith the bank tellers when the bank is open)
Buffalo wings with ranch. I dont have fast food often but when i do it's a Buffalo Ranch McChicken just because it's not as messy in sandwich form(the lettuce is also nice
We have California king, Alaska king, texas king and i think largest size is called a family bed.
The sauce is called Buffalo. That is why they are called Buffalo wings.
Drive through pharmacies are awesome especially if you are ill with something that is potentially contagious. I first used on nearly 30 years ago when I had chicken pox. It was nice to be able to get my antiviral medication and strong antihistamine without risking the health of others.
Drive thru pharmacy is great-especially when you’re sick and don’t want to get out of the car and limit exposure
Peeps are a thing for some people however Easter eggs, chocolate eggs are a big thing during Easter in the US. I didn’t realize a garbage disposal wasn’t a thing everywhere. They’ve been around since the 1930’s/40’s.
Most of the houses I have lived in in the US didn't have them. I've lived on the west coast, east coast and midwest. Mainly in older houses or rentals though, and that might be why.
I love Peeps. They also come shaped like bunnies. They're just one kind of easter treat.
Drive through pharmacies are great. Mostly because when you need something from them. It's usually for a couple reasons. You have a chronic condition, or you are sick with something. In the first case, saying in your car can keep you away from the sick people in line making you worse off, and in the second case staying in your car prevents you from spreading whatever illness you may have to others.
I love peeps and have to buy them at least once every Easter. I also love candy corn.
Yes, That device they showed was used by drive thru banks. It's been a while since I've seen one. Yeah, the angry sinks that chop stuff are real.
Americans have chocolate Easter eggs. Very very few people eat Peeps. They are mostly decorative at Easter time, but they are technically edible.
Peep or cheep is the word we use to describe the sound a bird or chick makes, hence the name of the bird shaped marshmallow
I will have to check the law, but it used to be illegal to put dcals (stickers) on our auto windows, yet I now see them on windows frequently.
You need to understand how the term "bumper stickers" came to be. Before the 80's cars actually had real chrome-plated, steel, bumpers. There typically was a 1-inch gap between it and the front/rear car sheetmetal. People also drove a lot more for day trips and/or vacations. The tourist sites, these families would visit (such as the Stage Coach Stop in the Irish Hills area of Michigan), wanted to advertise their spot to families around the country. Back then it wasn't common for them to have television or radio commercials. The internet hadn't been invented yet.
Someone came up with the idea of having the name of the tourist spot and location, maybe even a drawing all printed in bright colors onto a piece of stiff cardboard (about 1/16" thick x 4-5" wide x 12-14" long) there was a 1/8" hole punched into each corner and a length of wire (I would guess about a foot long) threaded through the two holes on each end. While mom, dad, and the kids were enjoying the amusement park, tourist trap, that place would have kids walking through the parking lot wiring these cardboard ads to the rear bumper of all the cars. On vacation, one time we had 4 individual ones on our car. In the 70's cars had a major change to bumper design, due to government crash test requirements. Now those chrome-plated, steel bumpers were 2-3" away from the car sheetmetal. The car companies added a piece of sheetmetal to fill the large void. Now there was no place to wire these cardboard ads to. Enter the adhesive backed ads known as bumper "stickers". These started out as paper but then developed into adhesive backed vinyl bumper stickers.
@@philmakris8507 You probably know more than I do. Your reference to the term "decal" is probably correct , through the industry. Unfortunately, my association with decals would be the old "water transfer" ones I used building cars.
I never new hoe b stickers started .they just started showing g up when I was youn
Hey my man if you come to America, don't go to the typical places that tourist come to see. There's more great places than Cali or NYC.
Go to
1.Keys, Florida
2.Fayetteville, Arkansas
3.Virginia Beach, Virginia
4.Hill city, South Dakota
5.Helena, Montana
I agree. The keys and Virginia Beach are probably my top 2 places I’ve ever been. And I’ve been to cali an ny.
@@Weeks25 man I miss Virginia Beach so much. I'm from there and man having Beach parties where awesome. The drive to Keys is long, like that long bridge there feels longer than driving from Orlando to Tallahassee. Lol
We have chocolate eggs here too. 'Ranch' is short for 'Ranch-style dressing' which was a flavour of salad dressing associated and marketed first in Alaska and California, and evoked an old western ranch style.
