I went to my local store by myself at age 13 to buy a gallon of 70% nitric acid in a glass bottle, and they were like, "Sorry, we can't sell it to you... if you're going to try and take that home on your bicycle in a backpack."
So I had to have my mom drive me back in the car so I could take it home.

I don't know if this is really funny but maybe some of you get a chuckle out of it. The Superb Owl becomes more and more popular even here in Germany (for whatever reasons). And when something becomes popular people wants to make money. So various stores are selling American themed food and other consumables right now. Let's see what this one store has to offer.
Personally I think it's funny what counts as American.

except for the hot dogs in a glass jar, this could easily be a grocery store circular for any store in my town.
While I don't really understand why Germany would care about the Super Bowl*, the "American Football Box" and "Chicken Donuts" are so bad yet so believably American.
*To my understanding, the NFL has been trying to break into the European market, but I don't think they've had a lot of success? Or maybe this circular says I'm wrong.

For some reason american football became a thing here over the last years. Or rather the the tv broadcasting of the NFL games in the US. We have american football sport clubs in Germany ( like the Hamburg Sea Devils) but the sport is not as popular as other "American" sports like ice hockey or basketball. At least not popular enough to get tv coverage.
The live broadcast of the NFL games is a bit of a surprise.

Yeah, I'd happily eat most of that. The hot dogs in a jar are a bit weird, but not so much as to put me off.
I do have to ask what this is:
Seriously, the fuck?

As an American grocery store manager I can tell you the same thing is sold in the states, just usually marketed as "burger sauce" or something.
TIL People like weird stuff
Mayo on burgers is objectively terrible. People who like it (including my spouse) are wrong and should sit in their wrongness and be wrong.
Ketchup and mayonnaise in one tube. I'm sure this is something that's more german than american. Many people eat their fries "rotweiss" (red white), with ketchup and mayonnaise. However it's usually separated and don't come out of one tube. This is more a gimmick product.
And yes it looks like tooth past.
It’s ok. Not everyone can have taste.
Ah, someone else who is wrong. What's it feel like to be wrong?
Yes, this is a hill I am willing to die on.
Fry sauce is basically those two with some Cajun seasoning.

I thought that was ketchup and thousand Island, not Mayo
I'd have to eat at a McDonald's to run into that. Their burgers are terrible, so why subject myself to that in the first place?
If I was starving and the only place open was McNasty, I'd go there, but otherwise, there is always a better option nearby.
Mayo is great at keeping your bun from getting soggy.
Also let’s not forget the hilarity that Heinz brought when they forgot to run their product name ideas past the “what does it mean in other languages” people.

FTFY, mayo is the worst of all condiments.
They are in my house.
