Russians sure do like American fast food and _____s - I see a lot of Coke, Sprite and Pepsi bottles, some ■■■■ that looks like a Russian version of Budweiser, and a lot of bags from McDonald’s and buckets of Kentucky Fried Chicken - is this some sort of cultural exchange program our participants are involved with?
It’s cheap food. They also eat a lot of shushi, so It’s not all about America and more about global stuff everywhere
That’s how it is. We are living in a global world.
With Budweiser I think the influence might be just as much the other way though, it’s based on European ■■■■.
I saw few times belgian beers too: “Stella Artois” ! lol
Haven’t seen that one, but that happens to be my own favorite!!
It is the new American secret weapon, between vodka and junk food they will end them.
I prefer Stella Artois myself - believe it or not, I don’t like most American beers, they’re too weak and bland. Except for Michelob, which is brewed pretty much like European (German) beers.
Me neither, just mentioned because it was talked here
You should try Leffe in case you didn’t yet.
Never heard of that one - but then again, I live in a rural area that doesn’t go for a lot of imported beers except for Stella, Heineken, Guinness and Corona. What country is Leffe from?
It is interesting to see, indeed. Lots of McD’s and sushi and pizza. There are some that actually do cook real meals in their kitchens more often than getting take-out, like Kristy and Timotheo, and most notably Kira of Nina-Kira fame is outstanding in the kitchen. She can whip up a home-cooked secret family recipe in no time flat, breakfast lunch and dinner. I like to watch her work in the kitchen.
First time i taste her was at Brussels (according to wikipedia it’s belgium), but actually it’s possible to find her here at some restaurantes with craft ■■■■
never mention American Budweiser and ■■■■ in the same sentence
I agree with Eldred, Budweiser is not ■■■■. Then again, I love me some PBR now and then LOL. But let’s keep this thread on track. The tenants have (or can only afford) bottom shelf thirsts. I’m amazed I haven’t seen a bottle of Mad Dog 20/20 show up.
OMG!!! Haven’t seen any MD 20/20 since college days - and that was over 40 years ago!!!
You are right there
Belgium, Leffe Abbey
Urgh. On my 21st I was at uni, an the irish lass in halls above had visitors from home staying. So I got trashed _____ with 3 irish lads and 2 irish girls, all _____ing something called “Turbo shandies” which it turned out was Leffe AND VODKA. Bluuuuuurgh cannot even think about Leffe since then
Wait, am I nuts or didn’t VHTV used to have a thing where you could gift pizza or something
Yes they had in the past. But it was ridiculously expensive and nobody used it…
