There are a number of things that people in the USA don't understand about Britain. Namely a cheeky Nando's, our obsession with the weather and the inability to do anything without saying 'sorry' 7 times over.
But the latest thing to make it across the pond that is leaving Americans a bit baffled is brown sauce - after a couple of news outlets over there ran a story about "the Irish condiment missing from your life."
Whaaaat?

Imagine a world where not only do you have no HP to drown your bacon butty in, but you don't really even understand what brown sauce is. These Twitter users literally have NO IDEA what we're on about.
Mindblowing.
Oh, and if you want to know what Brown Sauce actually is? It's made of tomatoes, molasses, spices, vinegar and sometimes dates, tastes a little sweet and a little tart, and is not dissimilar to steak sauce that is available in America. You're welcome.
