Twelve Ways to Divide the USA

Discovered an interesting picture from Bulgaria's Yanko Tsvetkov, who has written several books about prejudice. Here's a summary👇: 1️⃣ American dining culture is described as simple and direct, with a focus on burgers🍔, fries🍟, and grilled meat🥩. Microwave (fast food), barbecue, and frying (high heat) are the main cooking methods. There's a joke that if a snack like "Yao片" that makes you full instantly is invented, it would sell like hotcakes in the U.S. 2️⃣ Major cities are concentrated on the East and West coasts, while the vast land in the middle is depicted as large rural areas (big ranches, big deserts, big mountain areas). 3️⃣ The East Coast is seen as relatively warm and friendly, while the West Coast is perceived as more indifferent. 4️⃣ The North tends to embrace progressivism, while the South, known as the "Bible Belt," leans towards conservatism (Trump's stronghold). 5️⃣ Everyone is considered a bit racist, but in large urban areas, there is more emphasis on political correctness for the sake of diversity. 6️⃣ During winter, except for Florida, everyone shivers. 💡 As I've lived in the UK and Europe, I'm quite familiar with Europe. However, my knowledge of the U.S. 🇺🇸 is limited, and there's a bit of regional and industry jargon I might not fully understand. So, I'm eagerly awaiting everyone's input 😘
