Red hot dogs is a danish thing! I wonder if the ones in Maine originated in Denmark too?

--- Quote ---When I was young and naive, I learned from online forums that Americans took shits that clogged their toilets. I assumed that Americans take massive shits that we Europeans just can’t match (after all, everything is bigger in America)
When I came to US, I learned that they just have different toilets with small hole that gets clogged. European toilets never do that. They have bigger hole. You can put tennis ball trough it.

Ain't that the truth, and I'll leave it at that.

Mightn't differing diets have to do with it as well?

Barmymoo:
I don't know much about plumbing, but when I had IBS I did quite a bit of research into fibre and was shocked at the levels of fibre deficiency and constipation in the USA. From what I was reading, it's basically normal to be constipated all the time. People were talking about only opening their bowels once every couple of days as though that were just the way it is. So it is distinctly possible that it's both plumbing and diet!
