It might make you Americans feel a bit strange how our foods are advertised elsewhere as exotic. This ad from Netherlands shows how Big Americans pizza will make you feel like a cowboy, or football player, or something. Especially since that pizza is tiny. (via reddit)

That there pizza better not be in metric, or we're a gonna hafta open up a can of freedom on y'all's butts!
It's not small, it's personal size for the selfish American who won't share with all the starving children in Africa that Mom told me about.
I visited Netherlands for a while when I was in college and I remember this old guy came up to me and asked me where my cowboy hat was, then asked to see my belt buckle. I felt like I let him down by not having this huge belt buckle.

Also, it may no longer be true (that was many many years ago), but I recall that they ate their pizza with a knife and fork.
There's stuff like this about America and Americans all the time of Finnish TV. It's fun to see an outside view.
