Is that a thing? The cheese thing? Do we Americans put cheese on too many things? Do Brits (or Europeans) not? What other things do we Americans do that you guys find ridiculous?It's a common belief among the British that Americans put cheese on everything for no reason. I, however, know that the reason for doing it is a very good one: it tastes delicious.
Sticking with cheese for a moment, I find that most British people seem to think that "American cheese" is the nasty orange processed stuff. I doubt many will have heard of or tried White American cheese, which in my opinion is one of the most delicious cheeses around...SO creamy.
Not sure what most Brits think of Peanut Butter and Jelly, but I can't think of a more horrible combination. Separately they are fine...but never together. :S
