WHAT GERMAN EXCHANGE STUDENTS MISS ABOUT AMERICA

[@DevynDuffyOriginal]

So the thing that Germans miss most about the United States is... Mexican food.

[@eolsunder]

hey one of my favorite parts of America, Mexican food. And Im American! that's the best part of America my friend.

[@TheMusachioedBrony]

Devyn Duffy I thought that was very funny as well!

[@renecordova6349]

Now they know why we are all fat....

[@SubieNinja]

well i mean...crunchy tacos, and chimichangas are not really "authentic Mexican cuisine" they are tex-mex. basically Americanized Mexican food. much like panda express is Americanized Chinese food. so some of the foods they were mentioning are what i would call American in that they are inspired by other cuisines but tailored to American tastes

[@marythibault9032]

I grew up in California on the border, I live in Georgia now and I miss Mexican food too!

[@jawesomes6939]

there is something for everyone in the states. we welcome all European brother and sisters.

I love hearing positive things about America . So used to the world hating us. Wonderful kids

[@dayra6425]

the girl in the middle sounds exactly American

[@johnreed9050]

Very slight accent but she speaks better English than many Americans

[@dylanringproductions160]

[@martinelliotedwards1883]

She just speaks English fluently.

[@uwekonnigsstaddt524]

In Germany, as far as I know, kids are required to graduate, speaking 3 languages, fluently; German, English and the third is an elective. I am myself am immigrant (LPR) that eventually naturalized (now have dual nationality). I don’t have a particular pick when it comes to food since I can eat just about anything. I will NEVER be a vegetarian. As kid when I immigrated, the most impressive stuff that I experienced was the SIZE of the supermarkets!!!! HUGE!!!! And lots of different types of food.

[@neilis2405]

The middle girl in the group at 3:07 speaks incredible English. Not so much the structure (all of them seem to be good at that) but just from pronunciation she is very natural with very little detectable accent.

[@miket2951]

Sounds like she was based on the West Coast.

[@mcblahflooper94]

@@miket2951 I wouldn't have a single idea that she was German, for real!

[@IzaguirreC]

She sounded too American, I would be fooled if I saw her talking in person.

[@cmccarthy]

All three of those girls speak excellent english, but for sure the girl in the center speaks as though it is her native language. Amazing.

[@OnceAway]

I didn't think that that many people would miss the food. I'm currently in america and so far it's great.

[@johnsmith-tf8xb]

There seems to be a theme of loving American food. Were always happy to have our cousins over.

[@lavoncronje7958]

Tex-Mex, yesss. You go girl!

[@kathleenirish1981]

Wow that girl in middle of three who had gray top spoke English without accent

[@erictaylor5462]

3:00 That middle girl's English is amazing. She could pass as an American.

[@tommyhallum4207]

Its amazing how good some of these girls accents are I would have thought they were from here.

[@BenA-bu1cz]

Glad you enjoyed your stay and were able to share with us. These are great life experiences for all of you. Despite what the media says about the USA, we are good people are we perfect? no, but we are good people and proud of it. Thank you for sharing in the American experience. Come back and get some more What-A-Burgers, Taco Bell, Chipotle and the likes and also please reconnect with your Teachers.

What do you think of when you think of Americans" Obesity. (Generalization from most European comparison videos.) What do you miss the most about your stay in America? The Food.

[@TurnipLee]

Cheers from Utah! I can't leave the mountains!

[@dakotaborn6774]

A teacher invited a bunch of girls to a hot tub party? Run!!

[@erictaylor5462]

2:20 "I miss Taco Bell." Oh that poor poor girl.

[@NovaHorizon]

Wow. That shy girl had impeccable English. Over here in Idaho I wouldn't be able to identify her as being a foreign student until she tried to say Mexican dishes.

[@bretcantwell4921]

As someone who was a teenager living in Germany, and specifically Bavaria, I love this video. What do I miss 35 years later? German food, Bavarian mountains and German people.

[@Eizaburo.Meto99]

You were an exchange student as well?

[@stelliform]

Thanks for the video. It was fun to watch.

[@olyvoyl9382]

Europeans usually disparage American food. That is quite surprising to hear the students say they liked it. How cool is that?

[@lazaruslorenzo4945]

Yet you can find it all over the world.

[@goatsun1300]

Olyv Oyl because german food is bad I guess

[@tommyhallum4207]

I think a lot of Europeans are making that judgment based on they're American style restaurants that they have. That attempt to make American style Foods but really don't have a clue. There's really no such thing as American food. America is the world's largest Melting Pot there's so many different cultures so you really can't say you don't like it because it includes every type of food in the world.

[@mezlabor]

they didnt really like American food though lol most liked Mexican food.

[@JamesJones-li6ff]

uhm TexMex is american food. Dont dare blaspheme that here.

[@ericsierra-franco7802]

The girl in the center at the three minute mark sounds American.

[@johnwjr7]

It seems that they all miss Mexican food. I can't say I blame them. Mexican food and Tex-Mex food is the best there is.

Lol. No it's not. Not even close

[@johnwjr7]

@@matthewhunter6421 A difference of opinion but I can respect that.

[@faresamazigh5559]

3:04 this girl in the middle has a really good American accent. if i don't know she's german i'll say she's 100% american

[@Motorhead-y3]

In n Out shirt , bravo Kiddo!!!! Lol

[@davidthomas6094]

Interesting prominence for Mexican food, even though it's probably mostly about Tex-Mex and not elevated. Hey, they're students, not food travelers with a spending account. I'm American but have lived two years in college in Germany. Mexican food was the food type I missed most when there. Back then, anyway, Germans had no clue about Mexican or Tex-Mex (that's 1990-ish). They didn't use most of the spices, herbs (try to find cilantro!), chiles, cheeses, salsa, etc.

[@michaelterry1000]

The girl in the video 0:52 is wearing an In-N-Out T-shirt. Alllllll of my German relatives Love In-N-Out (so do I). I don't know why the franchise is not international.

[@toddcorley464]

[@robertsmith1768]

She said Wataburger!! Yes!

[@Motorhead-y3]

In n Out Shirt awesome !!!!🤟🤟🤟🤟

[@michaelscott-joynt3215]

I remember my high school hosting German exchange students 15 years ago. I didn't have any interaction, but I remember when they arrived. It was cold season, and they all seemed to be exceedingly well-dressed in expensive coats and luggage. I remember looking around at my fellow students and comparing how we dressed, and it felt really intimidating. It was weird because I attended the wealthiest school district in my state. I remember thinking that we were probably disappointing them.

[@Lex5576]

2:48.......My God, the girl in the middle is so fluent she could easily pass for a Southern American. She's actually picked up an accent during her stay here. You won't find very many Americans that can speak German as fluently, or with a dialect.

[@AM-cs2vz]

she must have American parents or something. That is straight up an american accent

[@Eizaburo.Meto99]

Andrew A no she hasnt she is a german just like me

[@AM-cs2vz]

THATS CRAZY!

[@MacGuffinExMachina]

Sounded like a mix of accents, like southern, midwestern, and Californian. Would have never guessed she was German. A lot of the American accents don't sound strictly attached to a certain region, I guess because of stuff like TV and movies.

[@stelliform]

I would have guessed a southern Californian accent. I'm from Louisiana.

[@DENVEROUTDOORMAN]

You should come to Colorado

[@motomark790]

[@janepeterson7796]

I'll tell you what. These kids speak the best English of any exchange students I've ever heard! (either in person or on the internet)Honest to God, if most of these kids, esp. the girls, came back to America and told the average American that they were BORN and RAISED here (but maybe had a German mom, etc.), they'd believe you. Congratulations on your outstanding assimilation from your stays. You should all be very proud of your achievement!!.....

[@charlies.5777]

Seriously, I completely agree. I thought that something was up with my ears as the German accent was virtually nonexistent. Really impressive. And, they ALL seemed very likable as well. PS I think that Now I'll appreciate Tex-Mex food a bit more. "Welcome To Moe's🎵!!"😀

[@briand.1694]

Why would such a pretty girl be so shy?

[@bumblebee2001]

First of all they're all underage. Its inappropriate to comment sth like that. Also she's not shy, she's german. We're not overexaggerating every word we can talk normally.

Wait - a coach invited the girls to a whirlpool party at his home? Where did I leave my red flag?

[@mactek6033]

If the 'Mexican' food contains these ingredients--- beef, yellow cheese (like cheddar), wheat flour, black beans, canned vegetables (especially tomatoes), and cumin.--- then it is actually considered Tex Mex. Those ingredients are generally not used in authentic Mexican dishes.

[@TuFargon54]

Mac Tek I was raised on Tex-Mex, so I don't really care. It was homemade and we didn't call it Tex-Mex, it was just what we had. Also, nothing came out of a can. It was in the 50's and 60's before it was labeled Tex-Mex...and like they say, it is delicious. Most "authentic" Mexican food is generally too greasy and has more of a primal flavor. Btw, fajitas are Tex-Mex too: • www.gazettetimes.com/news/local/history-of-fajitas-is-short-flavor-is-not/article_2bc50150-5d0a-11e1-b076-0019bb2963f4.html

[@MrsLiederlover]

Although you find these accents very American-which they are-notice how Scandinavians who spend months here also speak English with no accent. My wife and I were on an annual trip across "the pond", and sat next to a young Romanian guy who had been an exchange student in southern Texas. This guy sounded exactly like a person who had grown up on a ranch in Texas. You would not believe it. Here is quite an irony: To be quite frank, we live in Memphis, where a vast number of people who grew up here have trouble Speaking English. What is Their excuse?
