Nutella in U.S.A. … my dilemma
Hey there,
has been a while since I have written here. Well, many things happened as much time has passed. My stay here in the U.S. is about to end and I am quite sad…, anyway, I was wondering about this subject since a long time, but only tonight I found myself in the right mood to write about it. NUTELLA. Nutella is part of the italian culture…, manufactured by Ferrero, it can’t be missing in any attempt by any girl to hurt herself and her bottom. Indeed, students love it as it was the most powerful drug to let them study all night without burning brain cells. Here in the U.S.? Scarcely distributed and mostly: not advertised! Why Ferrero… I am wondering:
WHY?
America doesn’t have it!
or at least is not that diffused as in Europe…
I have been here since almost two months and here is the thing, I must say, with laughter, I miss the most:

The bidet!
I know, I know, this post is hilarious, but every european reading this article is likely to have at least a hint of how I could be feeling, and really I don’t understand why here it’s not used! I find it so hygienical and useful… and most of all is something I have always been using in all of my life. So, interested by this issue, tonight I googled it! And the wikipedia page popped out by giving me precious information: definition, history, location, culture and mostly the reason why it didn’t appeal in this country! I will therefore link the page in this article, in order not to deprive you of the pleasure to discover this bathroom item by yourself. I would only add that modern bidets are built in this way… and are continuously cleaned at every usage! (tsk!)

If you don’t have it, well give it a chance!
