 Three New Zealand foods that I think are so much better here in New Zealand than in the US number one Your chocolate is so good. You've even figured out how to combine chocolate pineapple. It's brilliant. Whittaker's Cadbury. They're all very good Hmm, so good. I even bring chocolate back to all my friends and family in the States and then I don't give it out And I just eat it myself Number two your scones your savory or sweet scones, but your savory your cheese scones. What the heck So good, I've never had a scone that good in the US And number three the way you do a roast You know you have like one of the meat options be pork or chicken And then you have all these vegetables and then you have these roasted potatoes like us It's a lot of mashed potatoes roasted potatoes. Mmm, so good And then gravy and then I was here for like four years before someone said do you want to Yorkshire pudding? I thought it was dessert. I thought sure. I like pudding It's like a bread with like hole in it with a grape Christmas holiday break from work US versus New Zealand my experience Okay, a couple days before Christmas like the 22nd 23rd because in the US you have off on the 24th and the 25th We do not have backs in day in the US You have like a party at work like in the office and you just kind of everybody brings something and you have a Little bit of a party. You're still working that day, but you are partying a bit Into New Zealand you also have a work Christmas party just like the office or sometimes you go out or sometimes it's You know, it just depends on what kind of job that you have But in New Zealand you have Christmas day off and then boxing day, which is December 26 And sometimes you get the 24th off but it depends But it's not as popular as it in the US in the US generally people have off the 24th unless you're in retail and then New Zealand Heads out for their summer holiday. Yes Christmas kind of kicks off summer holiday because it's summer here for one and like the school year has ended kids have Off for six weeks and everybody travels. I mean whole companies will shut down for weeks sometimes a month People go on two three four five week holidays go to the beach or whatever they want to do and it kind of kicks off So Christmas kind of kicks that off and everybody is gone over the summer break So comment below and let me know what you are doing this summer Movie concessions. I love going to the movies. Okay, can I get a popcorn a large soda? Oh, you don't have popcorn. Oh Looks like you have coffee and some baked goods. Oh, I have some of that. Oh, and you have wine Nice. Oh, maybe I want that My gosh, do you have ice creams ice creams in the movie theater? Okay, what do I want what do I want what I want? Okay, I can get a hot dog a nachos a large popcorn. That's refillable and a large drink What do I want? Ooh a pizza. Oh, I could get that. That's nice. Oh, you'll serve it to me while I'm seated. Nice Nice. I think I'll go with nachos and a large drink. Thank you and milk does US versus New Zealand back to school edition. Look at what New Zealand does. This is brilliant They have like one a eight and they're all green and they have one and this is how they label their color coded and number letter Coded and they all represent like what the different types of papers on the inside anyway The teacher sends you a list. You need two one a eights, whatever. It's so easy It's so straightforward and they're all the same color. There's no choices It's just this is your choice and then you know some pencils and a ruler and your set, right? That's not what it's like in the US. Okay, so school starts September 1st ish school supplies come out July 15th after the 4th of July and Let me tell you as a parent you're like going into battle Because you have the list now what let's you know in the US if you don't shop on the first day of school with all of your supplies Not a good idea Now they go and so people know this so every they sell out very quickly And so what you're gonna have is your student is gonna go into these aisles and they're gonna have so many different designs Folders notebooks whatever and where they can you know show their style, right? And so a plain blue color folder is a dollar a stylish one is 999 and so you have to go into battle with your kisses They're like, oh, I love this one and this one and this one but you know the plain colored ones are like a Fraction of the cost and then the teacher makes it difficult where they said we need four red folders Two blue folders one yellow folder and let me tell you they always run out of those And you have to go to like five stores to get them Because your students stresses out if they don't show up on the first day with all of their supplies It is a totally different experience school supply shopping US compared to New Zealand New Zealand.
