Heinz shouldn't illustrate the above article..... but there were many things we thought were British growing up... that are actually American...
Ford cars, most game shows, the James Bond films... & recently Harry Potter
... & there are things that appear American but are actually British
Kraft A1 steak sauce, Charlie Chaplin, Hitchcock, Cary Grant... the movie Platoon by the pizda Putin stooge Stone .... & ... the fucking Muppets...
... & recently it's got more confusing; Guinness is British not Irish, Smirnoff is as Russian as Dame Helen Mirren, Rolls Royce & Bentley cars are owned by VW & BMW... the Mini is also Germ & originally designed by a Greek... probably why it always lost money... Land Rover & Jaguar are Indian...
Lea & Perrin's Worcester sauce was owned by Danone for a while, French's American mustard was British for a bit... Owned by Reckitt Colman ... who sold Colman's mustard to Unilever... Haagen Daz was American ... pretending to be Swedish... & owned by the Swiss for a time... meanwhile IKEA pretends to be Swedish, but is legally based in the Netherlands
... & Trump is a stupid Germ pretending to be American... while Boris Johnson is a Turk born in New York acting like an eccentric Etonian
