Favorite Imported Items
« on: November 09, 2008, 09:58:45 am »
Here in the USA  we have many items we like that have origins (imports) from other countries.

For example:

Italian Pizza
The Japanese Toyota Camry
The German Shepard
Armani clothes
Even most of our cell phones are made in other countries

What are some of the favorites imported items and where do they come from? (please mention the country you live in) 
List anything from cars to shoes and anything in between.

I like cheap Chinese toys. And Swiss army knives. And Asian food. And illegal aliens.

Not even a mention of all those cities we built for you? I'm almost offended.
I suggest the statue of Laanx gets turned into a statue of Parallo <3. An NPC could never replace the huge hole he left in my heart when he died  :'(

I wanted to see what items came from which country and what countries use them. So I hoped products names would be used and countries mentioned.
For example the Camry is the number one car in the US.

Parallo is a city an imported item?  :D

Raa I love Chinese food here and I know for a fact that what we call Chinese food the Chinese do not. So what we call pizza here might not be the same as in Italy, but the concept comes from that country. So it is imported.

Does my computer count as importing internet?

If so, that's my favourite.
<Rux> i wish i could say that narrows it down, but the internet is one freaky place

I really can't tell if you're trying to be sarcastic or patronising.
