We Asked Americans To React To British Things – They Pretty Much Nailed It
“It’s a fact that no one truly knows how cricket works.”
We sent 16 uncaptioned photos that sum up Britain to BuzzFeed offices in LA and New York and asked them to write down the first thing that came into their heads. Twenty-one people replied. This is what they said:
Yorkshire puddings
Lauren: Steaming cheesy pots!
Stacey: Bagel volcano things.
Logan: Custard-filled pastries.
Cates: The food of the gods, aka Yorkshire pudding.
Claire: Is this a breakfast food? This looks like a breakfast food. What goes in the middle of that thing? I hope it's for whipped cream. This looks like the perfect vessel for holding an American-sized amount of whipped cream.
Erin C: Those are Yorkshire puddings and they are the tits. You eat them with a Sunday roast and, if you know what's good for you, you fill 'em up with gravy before shoving them into your mouth hole.

Boris Johnson, the mayor of London
Sami: Someone's sad dad.
Lauren: I LOVE THIS GUY. His name is Boris, right? Or something like that. Isn't he the mayor? Great hair.
Alexis: He has straw for hair and needs to deep-condition.
Jess: This is Boris Johnson! I remember when he got stuck on that zip line.
Mike: He looks like the lead in a Lifetime movie on the life of Gary Busey.
Keely: Wow, a member of the Malfoy family boxing!
Cates: This is the whitest man to ever live. No wonder he got elected.

WKD Blue
Sarah: Marketing ploy to get children to drink alcohol.
Sami: Vodka that tastes like a Jolly Rancher candy.
Alexis: In America, we use this to clean windows. IDK what you do with it, but it's probably something WEIRD.
Jess: This is DEFINITELY the first thing you get drunk on when you're a ~cool British teen~.
Kevin: Hmmm, a few of these and I might do some things that I don't normally do.
