One of the weirdest things to me was that in Croatia when we went out to eat we specifically had to ask for water without bubbles. Sparkling water was the norm there.

One of the weirdest things about the US coming back after growing up in the Philippines was the number of choices in stores. It was very overwhelming at first.

I've heard from a couple of people that Spain is the same way, so it might be a european thing (well, certain regions of europe anyway)

I've been told that Phillippines culture associates spaghetti with fast food restaurants and really little kids. I find this confusing.

Yes. Fast food spaghetti is a thing. And the sauce is a lot sweeter than American tomato sauce (and the spaghetti is usually drenched in more sauce than we normally put on it).

I've acquired a taste for American tomato sauce, but I grew up with the Filipino sweet spaghetti so for a while I thought American sauce was too tart. I think now I like my spaghetti sauce somewhere in the middle.
