When I traveled to the USA the first time (West Coast in the summer of 2000) I thought I would find many incredible products you cannot get in Europe. Okay, there were some differences (Gatorade drinks in gallons and in many different colors for example, bigger packages of products in the USA) but all in all the supermarkets in Europe/USA offer nearly the same. I do not understand why should supermarkets open 24 hours? Never in my life I had the need to buy noodles or bananas at 3 o'clock in the night... In Hamburg Penny Markt/Rewe, Edeka, Lidl and Aldi open from 7.30 am until 9 pm, I think that is more than enough.

Yes, I don't know if they're comparing things of equal age. The US has much fewer cobblestone streets because they were built later, many formerly cobblestoned streets were paved over in the early 20th century for fast cars, and the preference for wide streets which made it easier to retrofit sidewalks.

@@Kloetenhenne Even in the US buildings built after the 1930s or 1970s are less sturdy than those built before. I give two years because there are two different phenomena. After WWII a lot of housing was hastily built, and identical tract houses and cheap garden apartments became common. In the 1980s Wall Street started financing much of the housing and commercial buildings. Before that it was individual owners who intended to keep the building for a hundred years and pass it to their descendants.Or at least it was local tract developers who had a long-term commitment to the community. When Wall Street moved in, it wanted a 20-year return on its investment and didn't care what happened to the building afterward because the investors would be gone and investing in another building. So buildings were made for a 20-year lifespan, especially commercial buildings like big-box stores. Because it was assumed that after 20 or 30 years fashions would dhange and people would want a different building instead, and that would provide another opportunity for investor profits.

I lived in Spain for 5 years, more precisely in Catalonia, and found that everything there was more handycap friendly than in Germany. It is even required by law. Even old buildings from Roman times were equipped with elevators. Here in Germany it is more difficult, because according to building regulations there must even be a step or a drain at the entrance. One step is cheaper, so most buildings have one step. In Germany, an elevator is only required to be installed from 4 floors upwards, which is why only 4 floors are usually built to save costs. 😖

I’ve never gone to another country and then just complained about all the things that I DIDN’T like.

Definitely the many public restrooms. Once you've experienced some kind of urge and looking desperately for a restroom (paid for or not) you get the idea. Not to have to pay (out of the right coin and you're busted) is another nicety. Variety at hardware and clothing stores is better. As a tourist the longer opening times are also very convenient. And the standardization of many things where in Europe every country has its own procedures. The wider and straighter streets with the designated turning lanes and traffic lights make driving in the US easier. That does not apply to older cities where that is not the case (e.g. Boston). I don't care about custom cars. But I like the gung-ho approach to DIY many things. Even though the outcome is not always safe. Duct tape to the rescue!

So if you want to go to the other direction you have to ride 15 min in the wrong direction to then wait 45 min to take the next train in the right direction.

Hey Deana and Phil, I'm disabled and depending on a ♿. I think the bigger cities like Cologne, Frankfurt or Berlin are a bit more handicap-friendlier, but smaller or rural cities are unfortunately not. I was in UK 5 years ago and I can say that for a European country it was even handicap-friendlier even in the not bigger cities like Bath, Exeter or even Torquay. Other European countries are ok. Paris has also some sidewalks which are not accessible with a wheelchair.... Spain or Prag I don't know. Hope that gives you some answers to your question.

Sweet corn is a different variety from the corn used in animal feed, biofuels, and products. Sweet corn is only like 5% of total corn production.Corn is in all processed food and animal feed because the USDA subsidizes it so it's cheap. The subsidies come out of Depression-era price supports for farmers.Cows eat grass so when farmers feed them corn they're prone to getting sick so farmers give them a lot of antibiotics. And high-fructose corn syrup is unhealthy: your body doesn't recognize it as filling so it makes people eat more calories; that and other ultra-processed food is partly why Americans have gotten obese since the 1970s. That's the distortion that occurs with subsidized corn. Some Americans drink Mexican Coca-Cola because it has real sugar instead of HFCS like it used to do here. So enjoy sweet corn but don't be jealous of the other corn: it's unhealthy and not environmentally sustainable.

I spent a few years in the UK and had to explain (and fight) with people on what constitutes a bbq. I'm from Texas, if it's just burgers and hot dogs it's a cook out. If it's slow cooked slabs of meat (beef, pork) it's a bbq. Not to mention the sides....

German disabled man here: no, Germany is nowhere near as wheelchair accessible as the US, has nowhere near as many subtitles on TV as in the US, has less participation of people with impairments in school, clubs, etc. etc. Did you know: in 2019 there were over 2000 lawsuits over inaccessible websites, compared to none in Europe. One factor is the different legal systems. The continental European one makes it hard for individuals to sue a company and a government agency, but the Anglo-Saxon one in the US makes it easier for individuals to fight for accessibility.

Living quality in europe is so much better. And i don´t want to tell about cultural life and architecture ;) :D

I am an electrician in the US my parents home has light switches on the outside of the bathroom but when I wire houses I try to keep the light switches in the room. However it isn't always possible due to layout so they still end up on the outside. This also happens with closets.

And yeah BBQ here in Oklahoma and in Texas is great. If y’all ever come to either state I highly recommend trying the BBQ. Also I’m not sure if there is Cracker Barrel in South Carolina but here in Oklahoma there is and their meatloaf is really good. Just thought I’d add that as y’all talked about it in past videos. =)

Surprised about the littering thing a little bit... people definitely litter in the US but it also depends on the area. I live in CO and if people see you littering here they will confront you! I’ve noticed in Germany though that people will purposely “litter” and leave empty bottles out on the streets because homeless people can collect them and get money.

Handicap friendliness: We are pretty... but there is something that stands in the way of that: Denkmalschutz and preserving buildings and space to build stuff like elevators, etc. It is a very hard topic if you asked me... on the one side I can see why we want to protect the original state and want to honor such beautiful buildings and places on the other side: Some people from today can not do what they want without help because us protecting the work of people already dead... it is pretty hard to decided but in the end: I would hate to get rid of some of the old buildings and history to make them more accessable... that is just now okay neighter... And about the 24h store stuff... just no. Of cause it is convinent to be able to do that but prices would go up or the employees would work overhours a lot and the employees rights would be shortcut which would sooner or later take over to other areas too... I do really not want that because it would change a lot of stuff to the worse if you ask me on the long run.

I live in the States in a "European" designed condo and the bathroom light is outside the bathroom; my bedroom is connected to the bathroom, so when I get out of bed at night to go to the bathroom, I have to (in the dark) find the door that opens out to the room with the bathroom light switch in order to turn it on. Very annoying.

You can have peanut butter in Europe, but it will cost you, it’s higher than a cat’s back in most of those places because they have to import it. The US grows a ton of peanuts, and our “obsession” with PB is because it is so cheap, yet a great source of protein and calories in lean times. Plus it’s delicious, so we have PB everything.

The one of thev reason why public transportation isn't as good 8n the US as it is in Europe is because the US Government bowed down to the Automotive industry in the 50s to make sure the interstate highway system was a success. Because of that , many cities like Los Angeles, San Francisco, , Dallas, Houston, Detroit, NYC etc that had extensive street car systems saw them dismantled and since the early 1970s , major metro areas have been trying to rectify that. Over the last 30 yrs, speaking from experience as a rider of LA's public transit system, it has improved since the opening of the Metro Blue line light rail in 1990 and continues to improve with every public transportation funding measure that passes.
