My daughter was watching a video on youtube in which this family does all kinds of shit we can't afford, and they were vacationing in Hawaii. While they were at one of the stereotypical touristy "luaus", watching some stereotypical "hula" dancing, I wondered, do those locals clock out at the end of the day with disdain for how their cultural things have been turned into a "tourist itinerary stop"? It made me think, are there any regional "food combinations" or orders that they see tourists massively screw up?
What have you seen that's exclusive to your "region" done completely wrong by someone from a different area? Here it's things like ordering sweet tea not knowing it's going to be a big glass of iced sweet tea, or putting sugar on grits, drinking from the glass of water they bring you with beignets, etc. I'm guilty of putting chinese entrees on fried rice instead of plain steamed white rice. I don't put cinnamon in chili or any of that yankee stuff. |

Wearing bikini's to town like this is some kind of fucking resort. Cover up yourselves, whores. Otherwise I don't pay enough attention to care.

This may be the first anti-bikini-in-public sentiment I have ever heard of.

Sugar on grits? I did that as a kid. Only way I would eat them... And I was as Deep South as you could get.

Gerald Ford came to my home town and tried to eat a tamale

When you are served tortillas with a meal, typically you put butter on it and eat it like we eat bread with our meal.
Not stick everything in it and make a taco Though I do it, because I like it, but I know it's not the "legit" way to do it |

I live in Ohio. Other than Cincy's fucked up "chili" there ain't a whole lot of "regional" to our food.

Chicago "pizza" Tourists didn't screw that up, Chicago did. East coast style (NY/NJ) pizza or nothing. You guys ever been to Italy before? It's funny when someone from a pizza state goes to Italy and orders real pizza for the first time. Go to any touristy place and you'll hear Americans bitching about the pizza being made incorrectly. |

The glass of water is for cleaning all the powdered sugar off your fingers and dipping a napkin in water to clean your face. Not for drinking. Another running joke here (MS Gulf Coast) is that you can always tell who the tourists are because they're the ones that actually get in the water on the beach. |

Hawaiian culture was erased decades ago. The show they put on for tourists was lifted from other Pacific Islands, since Hawaiians were successfully domesticated and pacified,and had zero reference points for re-adoption of their traditions and customs.

Had a group of tourists come and sit next to me in a brewery in Denver.
Tourist 1 - Do you have cider? I can't seem to find cider at any of the breweries. Tourist 2 - Do you have something that tastes like Budweiser? Babarsac - Tourists not drinking enough water........elevation yo. Tourists trying to many edibles and ending up in the hospital. |

I'm in Italy in July and I want ice in my water! I thought this place was civilized, so why is there no ice anywhere? SENZA GASSE, you barbarians! Why is all the water carbonated? Dammit. |
