Don't watch Jersey Shore for an idea on how to survive USA. In fact, don't bring it up. At all. Ever.
And American girls love accents, so you can use that to your advantage.

It's not just that. Our food quality is very very low because of trying to sell it for the cheapest price possible. Some of our food isn't even real. Just chemicals that have the same flavor, and there is corn in pretty much everything. Our meat is injected with steroids and the cow meat needs to be washed in ammonia to clean it of disease or parasites.
There is no limitation of MSG (mono-sodium glutamate) or high fructose corn syrup.
If you buy food from a supermarket, try to buy it at whole foods or trader joes, or if you can't, try to find a supermarket with an organic section. If you go out to eat, avoid fast food. Just treat it like it's a post office or something. There's no food in there. :P And don't feel like you have to eat everything just because we give it to you. Most of the time over here you can split an order with a friend and still have some left over.

Hey thanks for the heads up. I'm not an overeater so if I'm presented with loads of food on one plate, then I know I can't finish it. But I'll definitely take in your advice!

Brittish is most popular, but Australian is also found very attractive. Pack some Australian movies with you so you can keep the accent. :P

I like all of this so called unhealthy food. It's cheap and convient. Healthy and organic food usually cost way more and it has no taste to it. This is off-topic though,I'll stop derailing this guy's thread now. lol

I agree with Boutros
At some point, something must have come from nothing...
...nothing can come from nothing...

That's the problem, innit? The food that's cheap, no, le'ts be serious. The chemicals that are cheap are designed to taste as amazing as possible. Organic food has flavor, it's just that we've gotten to used to eating shit. You can always put salt on your organic food, or use other herbs and spies to improve flavor. I eat organic about twice a week, and it really just depends on how you prepare the food. Also, you can eat fish. Fish is very good for you and as long as it's free range (not farmed) it's healthy and tasty.


You'll here alot of people talking in a "New Joisey" accent. Also, the emergency number is 911. Walmart is probably the cheapest plan to stock up on Spam and Pretzels. DO NOT EAT "ROCKY MOUNTAIN OYSTERS". Bring a jacket ot two. When you eat a resturant, don't blow your nose and shove it in your sleeve. If you have to spit something out, spit in a napkin. Don't pick your teeth infront of people. Don't say "You know","Dawg", or any variant. There's probably going to be other people from around the world if you're going. And also go to DisneyWorld if you have a break or Busch Gardens. Don't drink the tap water! And most importantly, know what you're going to order before you go into a fast food place like McDonalds.

Especially in NYC
1) Contrary to the opinion of most of the world. We aren't going to bite, or beat the crap out of you for stepping off a plane. A majority of the people are nice, just like everywhere else.
2) I laugh about the food talk. It's pretty simple. Don't eat shit food, if you don't want it. There are more then enough great restaurants in NYC, and the rest of the country to eat good stuff.
