I spent 3 months with an unlimited Greyhound pass in 1973. Coast to coast. I spent about anotrher 3 months on business and in an RV taraveling across the Mojave, Colorado, Utah, Nevada, and, of course, Califuckyou.
But they always behave like Anericans and dont make any effort to understand anything.
Try it then
It was sufficiently common to treat it lightly:
"In 1801 up to a third of Londoners died from TB" Yeah, very lightly I am sure.
People today just don't know what poverty and pollution are.
That was probably at a low notch in culture. But it sounds like you didn't enjoy yourself, didn't make many friends.
Don't be silly. We have 50 states, all sorts of cultures, and there is no stereotypical "Anerican." We have no racial majority here, and I hear people speaking Spanish next door, right now. They are construction guys, and I bring them beer every day about when they are done.
Good grief, we're almost out of beer!
I will, if I can help them. The science might turn out to be important. They, unlike some I could name, seem to like Americans.
It's still made in a factory Wisconsin.
Strawberries are fine on their own. No dip required.
Every few years we make cheesecake. That's about all the cream cheese I use.
Or a girl with a stand mixer.
On the contrary I had the time of my life. It answered my burning question of 'Why are all the Americans I have met in England such arrogant assholes"
The answer was 'because they had money, but no culture or class'
I got on best with the lower middle classes of black and italian extraction, and the good ole boys out in the western plans.
There is a stereotypical American traveller to Europe. And Mexico too. As a narrow representative of Usians, they are all in denial about the narrow class they actually come from.
Oh I like Americans, They are like small children, Bumptious and ignorant, but one has compassion. You just have to lower yourself to their level
Just because someone said something...
Its pretty good on smoked salmon, once a year at Christmas
Or an electric drill with a paint stirring attachment. D-I-Y rules, OK?
Some people are afraid to go off the path of tourism a bit. Sure, I've been to some of the tourist spots, unavoidable to see some things, but just a block or two down a side street is so much different.
Get to know the local grocer and coffee shop
But that wasnt due to them using exclusively raw milk.
And farm boy memoirs are a FAR better source than novels.
There is no form of color blindness that would produce that result with the color of cheese.
You'd be wrong.
That's like putting ketchup on a good steak.
Nope.
But what killed you was the virus, not a 'chill'
But due to TB and no antibiotics, not due to them using raw milk.
But they weren't killed by raw milk.
Some certainly were. Are you a raw milk fan?
google childhood deaths unpasteurized milk
Are you a raw milk fan?
Nothing wrong with a bagel, a schmear, and some smoked salmon.

It surprises me that nobody accidentally discovered things like preserving food and saving babies, before Pasteur.
It should have been obvious that reheating, say, a pot of stew kept it from spoiling. Sealing food in a jar under wax should have been discovered too.
I never said anything that silly.
Actually, many of the novelists died young too.
