Observations

You might be Dutch if:
  1. You confuse the “Bald Eagle” with the term “Spread Eagle”

  2. You consider it “American” to eat with your fork in your right hand when you are actually right-handed.

  3. Your lunch consists of milk and a stack of bread with slices of cheese in between, and you eat it by cutting it into squares with your knife and fork.

  4. You break every 10 minutes for coffee, every 30 minutes for a smoke, every hour for a half-hour long conversation (regardless if the other person has time).

  5. Cheese, it’s what’s for breakfast, dinner, lunch, and snack time.

You might be an American in the Netherlands if:
  1. You thought you ordered a pasta dish, but instead you got something that translates to “baby cow with small bones still in it”

  2. You receive suspicious glances when drinking a coke before 3pm (they think I have a problem).

  3. You cannot find a chicken dish on a menu to save your life.

  4. Your cheese intake has tripled.

  5. Each morning when you wake up, your legs are still marching in place from all of the walking.
