Line 8:
* Instant coffee is more popular in Europe than in the United States, where it was developed. Incidentally, instant coffee was invented by a Japanese scientist working in [[The Windy City|Chicago]]; naturally, tea-crazy Japan won't touch the stuff, either.
* Fosters is a brand of Australian lager that has declined in recent decades in its home country, but it is popular in the UK, and enjoyed a bump in American sales in the 1990s.
* Corona is a fairly minor beer brand in Mexico (or was for a very long time, it's rather popular now); it iswas the top-selling imported beer in the US and the UK until its name became associated with ''[[The Plague|something else]]''.
* Clamato (a mixture of tomato and clam juice) is very popular in Canada and Mexico as a drink mixer for either beer or vodka. In the United States, its country of origin, not so much (although it's made inroads among immigrant communities to the point where Anheuser-Busch offers a Budweiser/Clamato premixed beverage).
** Actually, while Clamato is mixed primarily with beer in the States and Mexico, its popularity in Canada is for our own national cocktail, the Bloody Caesar, virtually unknown and largely reviled elsewhere. (Most people seem to have a problem with clams in their vodka. Weirdos.)
