LOL. It’s just one of those words that’s different in different parts of the world.

Oh, yeah. If you want tea with sugar, you definitely need to ask for “sweet tea” in the South. Although I went to Texas a few years back, and they only had unsweetened tea. I would have thought that they would have had “sweet tea” too.

Also sweet tea is iced tea here, a real shock when you ask for iced tea down south and it has no sugar. Lol.

Cornbread? How can you not eat cornbread? LOL. But I’m with you on the grits. I don’t like those either.

Even though I live in the South I do not eat most of the Southern foods like sweet (or any other) tea, grits, cornbread and many others. People kid me and same I should have been born in the North.

Well, I had never thought of a toboggan as a sled before. So I learned something too. LOL.

I never thought about lemonade, but I guess it’s probably a little more common in the South too.

Interesting. I didn’t know they had sweet tea in California. Sometimes when I read books by British (or other overseas authors), I will have to stop a second and try to figure out what a particular word means.

McDonald’s started selling sweet tea a year or two ago out here in Cali (near San Francisco), that was the first I’d heard of it other than in books about the South. I love to read books by British authors, especially paranormal as it is “foreign” to me as I live and breathe paranormal fiction from U.S. authors. However, it does feel like coming home to read words with extra “u’s”. 😉 That’s what 20 years in each country will do to ya!
