I have a cool coffee table book about the Zamboni, so I knew it was invented in California from surplus military jeeps.

My only surprise was the peanut butter! My son takes 6 jars with him when he goes to school because he doesn't like the American versions.

My pet peeve when travelling to the US is "Canadian bacon"! Canadian bacon is the same as US bacon! Those little round ham slices are not a Canadian thing!

..... (does 2 minutes of "research")

Nevermind - Canadian bacon is back bacon or peameal bacon, and it was "Invented" in Canada. Who knew
