Always find that in American, words are butchered to suit their own. Like color and colour

@Disposal I think we all do that a little bit though :)

But the US still has the best Catsup in the world. 🤗

@SimplyTracie In the US? Sometimes I guess 🤷‍♂️

@Kwek00 Yes. In the US

@SimplyTracie Yeah... sometimes I get. Sometimes it's Catsup.

No worries, it's not the only part where the US gets confusing at times. 👫
