Watched my neighbors house in Houston when they were visiting the UK, and they offered to bring back something as a thank you. I asked for a box of loose Yorkshire tea. They thought this was pretty funny since it is the American equivalent of asking for a six-pack of Budweiser Beer. But you know, sometimes those mass-market products are just perfect.

I get specialized sections for places well known for making good food and even the American sections (here's a bunch of terrible junk food that tastes amazing), but a British section?

This is how 90% of the knuckle-draggers in Pennsylvania walk.

Warmer water made the inside of the bottle have a lower pressure than the surrounding air. Since high pressure goes to low pressure, it made the bottle shrink

Lol no, it's just light pollution from the cold storage units in the area--they belch steam clouds into the sky, and the streetlights catch the clouds and turn them gold.

Does your Publix also have the Jewish frozen section with the blitzes and schmaltz and the big loaf style gefilte fish?

Worth noting that “pickle” here is category of things, like saying “jam”
Pickle and cheese sandwiches are branston pickle which includes pickled rutabaga and carrot and onion and raisins and stuff. It’s really good!

Not British - the tea variety is smaller than I imagined.

It’s Belgian. This is the “ European” section. The one in the Publix on my street has random Greek chocolate and German bread and such.
All I buy from it in Branston pickle and hobnobs though.
