Tbh, people in third world countries could not survive an American buffet.

People expect personal space but you're also supposed to find your way around 12 hungry idiots at the same time. Then when you finally get to the food while managing not to piss anyone off, you put it on your plate and it's shit like hotdogs, burgers, two-foot tall sandwiches, potato salad, ribs & wings with sauce all over them... how the hell are you supposed to eat that shit without getting it on your clothes? That's if someone doesn't flip out on you and call you racist because they think you cut them off or something.

Look at people in Eastern Asian countries: "Oh, let me just use these chopsticks to EAT RICE. Let me pick up this finely rolled sushi with two sticks because it's so stable that you'd have to TRY to get it to fall apart." If sushi were an American food, it would be between two buns with mayo slathered all over it and everybody'd be expected not to drop it on themselves. Either that or you'd eat it with your bare hands.

And in China, overpopulation's got people USED to bumping into each other. People stand shoulder to shoulder and if someone bumps someone else, they just shrug it off. 🤷‍♂️ In the US, depending on your mood, you either apologize, or scream at the other person and get on World's Dumbest and Tik Tok.

We Americans are survivors in the jungle of restaurants and buffets. 🤨
