The American Image in the Polish Mind

Bought at my local supermarket:

Gun_Waving_Uncle_Sam_Top_Hat_Wearing_AMERICAN_eagle

And a closeup of the “eagle:”

Crazed gun waving american

This is what we look like to our European betters:

Gun waving

Uncle Sam top hat wearing

Red, white and blue colored

Agitated

American eagles.

  • That eagle sure does look agitated. I wonder what his problem is?

    What’s the difference between USA popcorn and Polish popcorn?

    And why are you buying bagged popcorn anyhow?

  • Joshua

    I bought it for the picture. I haven’t tasted the popcorn yet. And what difference does it make why I would buy bagged popcorn, anyway? Maybe I LIKE bagged popcorn. It’s not like I can go to the 7/11 and grab a pan of JiffyPop. I’m in a POSTCOMMUNIST country. They don’t have JiffyPop here.

  • Bags of prepopped popcorn are DISGUSTING.

    Clearly, you’ve found a niche: import Jiffy Pop into Poland, and you’ll be rich!

    Do they have microwave ovens in Poland?

  • Joshua

    Yes, and the electricity to power them.

  • Even so, they have to rely on bags of prepopped popcorn with American Bald Eagles on the package in order to get the nutrients and minerals from such corn-based products.

    Let me know how it tastes. I’m sure it doesn’t get better with age.

  • Joshua

    I’m not going to eat the popcorn.

  • von

    YOu should import Jiffy Pop with pictures of Obama on them into Poland and sell them… YOu could call it “Hope Corn.” Everyone would buy it and you would become a millionaire…

  • Joshua

    We need that Hope Corn right here in America, Von. Now, more than ever.
