As someone who lives in America and regularly sees literal busloads of SE asian tourists, I assure you, they're not any better.
- freddie_mercury 5y agoSure, it happens everywhere. Like with Europeans and their constant condescension about how American chocolate isn't "real". I roll my eyes at them, too. I don't know why people need to take their personal preferences and elevate it to some kind of moral universal thing. But this post was about sriracha so I mentioned a sriracha anecdote.
- rhacker 5y agoI guess it's about the eyeroll. People are going to be people. Do you want all those American visitors to know everything you do or do you want them to stop visiting I guess is the real question.
- freddie_mercury 5y agoI want them not to say "the real one". All they have to say is "the one I'm used to". You don't need to know anything about food or history or sriracha to do that.
