Bread made with corn flour/meal is not what we call cornbread. The American cornbread is another thing altogether.
Cornbread in America is bread made with cornmeal I am a Southerner in America so just letting you know it's cornmeal egg and shorting or oil shorting is best
Both cornmeal and cornflower are ground from corn kernels. Cornmeal is more coarsely ground and retains more of the corn taste.
You can only get prescription drugs with the prescription from your physician even if they are advertised on TV. So you have to go to the doctor's office first where he is supposed to evaluate your need for the advertised drug, and choose the best drug to treat you condition and then write a prescription for it. He is supposed to inform you of risks and side effects before giving you the prescription. He may allow you to decide which drug to used based on the information he gives you. But that is only when 2 drugs have similar effectiveness.
McDonalds was the only restaurant with an official "super size" but they did away with it back in 2004 so it's been almost 20 years since we've had an official super size. Also, Black Friday isn't quite as intense as it used to be because a lot of retailers have started doing their best deals online. Most of the rushes were caused by really good deals but since the stores would typically have less than 10 of that item people would push and shove and even worse to try to get to the deal first. Also Also, car mechanics in the United States have to buy both metric and imperial (standard) tools because for some reason all vehicles use both metric and imperial bolt sizes. It's one of the most irritating things I've ever had to deal with.
Hate that bolts can't be standardized.
Supersize was an upgrade to a gigantic fries and drink size.
Also, Black Friday has largely gone away due to online shopping.
Ummm, lol, no...black friday has not stopped.
It largely went away because Covid broke the cycle. Plus stores have decided to market mostly online sales as a result. I’m sure it’s cheaper too than having to fix broken things caused by an insane mob. Not that I buy anything or was even invested in Black Friday, but I like it better this way and hope it never returns like it was previously. I remember hearing a story in my city that a psycho adult physically injured a child because the girl grabbed the last game. It’s really not that deep. It would have been ok 🤦🏽♀️
@@jasonfritz838 Yeah, it has not totally stopped, but the mad mayhem of the initial stampede has been gotten under control via various techniques
It's more of a week-long thing than just one day too.
A couple of the pharmaceutical commercials weren't real. They were on comedy shows.
Molly, don’t know if you’ve had baby Beesley yet, but wanted to tell you, take it easy, don’t give yourself a hard time or be judgemental on yourself. Being a mother is a learning experience. Don’t think you can do it all on your own. Take care of yourself & talk to your mom, for advice, even just when you need to vent because she will understand.
The pharmaceutical commercial that you said “wow“ to was a satirical commercial on the TV show Saturday Night Live. Our normal drug commercials are not that blunt!
my area hasn't had the super size option since the 90s
Nate Bargatze's bit about imperial units on SNL is hilarious. He played George Washington at Valley Forge
We mostly throw our trash away. We don't put big stuff in the garbage disposal all the time. We mostly just spray and wipe the sink with gloves on and a sponge.
We who?
Super size was eliminated after the movie Super Size Me came out. The fries and drink would be bigger on a super sized meal.
Don’t put bones or anything too hard in the garbage disposal. It’s more for scraps. For instance when you’re cooking there might be peeled vegetable skins, parts of fruits and vegetables you’re not going to eat and of course just food left on plates excluding bones. You put it in the garbage disposal, run the water, turn it on and down it goes.
This is one of those “don’t knock it until you’ve tried it” kind of things. I wonder if Laurence from lost in the pond likes garbage disposals.
That was so funny that you guys thought that the pharmaceutical ad about killing somebody was real! That was just a skit! Pretty funny one too.
American cheese is called processed cheese outside of the US so technically doesnt exist outside of the US because it has a different name but actually does.
Its not even called cheese in america. Its labeled as a milk product if you read the package.
@@nullakjg767 It depends on the specific product. Whether it can be labelled as cheese, cheese product, imitation cheese product, etc. depends largely on the level of milk content. Some American cheese is properly labelled as cheese.
@@thomasmacdiarmid8251 Thats actually incorrect. "he FDA calls it “pasteurized processed American cheese food.” In order for a food product to be a true “cheese,” it has to be more than half cheese" I think it actually falls under "cheese product. Youll find it in the deli section or prepackaged section, but any grocery store with a dedicated cheese section would only have real cheese. (which is most grocery stores now a days)
The more words they use, the further it is from real cheese. Hence "pasteurized processed American cheese food product". Yuck!
Analogue Cheese
Our white bread is usually sweeter than the white bread in the UK. It is usually made with bleach flour and dough modifiers, so it is a little different than what you guys get.
UK bread looks weird
And lots of sugar
Free condiments in fast food places. The first time I was charged for ketchup packets in London, I was shocked.
We also all learned the metric system in school but after that most of us have never really used it
I make jalepeno cornbread with bacon crust. Made in a pie shape in a cast iron skillet, it is the best
When I was a kid, the next-door neighbors had a trash compactor built-in under their kitchen counter next to the sink. Unlike the garbage disposals under sinks, you placed solid, dry waste in the trash compactor's pull-out drawer, pushed it back in until it locked, pushed a button, and the rubbish inside the drawer was compressed to a much smaller, dense cube, to take up less space when disposing of it later. Now that most homes separate out recyclables, and maybe even sort them by material, trash compactors have fallen out of favor.
you use the water sprayer to put into disposal. when you run the disposal you have to run the water down the drain also. you cant put everything into the disposal and once in awhile you should put in a lemon or the like to ensure it doesnt start to smell bad...
I just helped my daughter deliver her 5th (another boy) Thursday night. Hope your delivery goes well.
You don't have to touch the stuff you're putting in the garbage disposal, you can just use your sprayer. Do you have those in Jersey? They're hand-held sprayers similar to what you'd see outdoors at the end of a garden hose, but instead attached to a hose that retracts to counter level when you are done with it, and is built into your sink base. Most U.S. sinks come with holes placed and sized for, from left to right, the hot water spigot handle or knob, the water faucet or tap, the cold water handle or knob, and then the sprayer. For sinks made to accommodate a faucet that has a swingable handle controlling hot and cold water simultaneously, there would be just a hole for the tap and a hole for the spray head. Incidentally, whenever you use the sprayer, water is cut off to the faucet; they can't operate simultaneously.
On a few of the points made in the video. Garbage disposals in America are mainly to be used for softer foods like pasta, eggs (not in the shell) and similar foods so they do not have to be scraped into a garbage can before washing dishes. You can scrape it into the sink disposal, turn it on and rinse the ground up items down the drain line. Chicken bones, ham bones and other hard objects are not intended to be put into the garbage disposal and will likely clog it up or break the disposal and are not meant to replace a garbage can or bin. Spray cheese is basically mild cheddar cheese in a can that squirts out onto whatever you would like to put it on. What most videos don't show or tell you is that a can of spray cheese is equal to many slices of American cheese and will more than likely make you ill 🤢 if you spray a can of it directly into your mouth and eat it the way it is depicted in a lot of movies and tv shows. In regards to Black Friday it has changed a lot in America in the past five years or so. Online shopping has replaced a lot of the shopping people used to rush to stores to do on Black Friday. Now Black Friday deals are advertised online and can be bought during a certain time frame at the sale prices. While stores still have sales on items in store on Black Friday they also have pre Black Friday sales for a few weeks before the actual day as well. One thing to note in regards to Black Friday sales and electronics is that stores are generally selling their oldest stock and models in stores on Black Friday while if you want the latest and greatest models, brands or kinds of electronics you'll have to purchase these online. As a result of these changes Black Friday is now almost just another shopping day at stores. Any videos of people trampling over each other to get into the store were made years ago prior to online shopping when the only available items were what was available in the stores themselves. Times have changed.
I think spray cheese was originally meant for orderves and party crackers.
We stopped doing super sized a long time ago...that was about 1.5 days of calories in one meal.
6:20 “Super-size” wasn’t an official “size”. It was an upgrade to the largest size for the sides. Most combos are (and have always been) advertised and sold as a medium. But you have always been able to super size the combo to a large. This is why the order taker would ask you if you wanted to super size you meal. It is still available today.
I know the UK uses Imperial for a lot of stuff. As for the drug ads I simply ignore them.
I was honestly surprised that only half of us have garbage disposals. You don't need to use your hand on stuff in the sink, you just rinse it down.
Super sizes were pretty much phased out after the Morgan Spurlock documentary Super Size Me.
Black Friday isn't as crazy as it used to be since Amazon.
The drinking age creates a big problem because it means alcohol is forbidden fruit for most of the time you're in college.
I hate garbage disposals they are useful but the one in our apartment has been the biggest pain in the bum!!!! We’ve had it fixed 3x. I’m at a point where I’m ready to give up on it and never want one again.
I'm surprised that garbage disposals aren't in more homes too. I think most new homes get disposals but older ones don't as often.
Black friday really went down the drain when covid hit. At least in my area.
Most Americans do not like spray cheese or plastic American cheese.
Shhh, let them think their cheese is better so they dont import our good cheeses and raise the prices.
American cheese is meant to be melted not eaten cold.
I don’t know anyone who likes it
@@mmoretti its for burgers really. or one type of cheese in a grilled cheese. you could put it in mac and cheese as well with other ingrediants to increase the "melty"-ness. it has its applications but its not meant to replace real cheese. absolutely no one on this planet is having american cheese with wine.
I know what it is, and no it’s not for burgers or when you want “melty cheese”. Spray cheese started being sold when I was 10 or 11, it was marketed as something you put on crackers etc.. I’ve only ever seen teenaged boys eating it. America has it’s own cheeses, and there are fantastic ones made here.
Until the 1980's the legal drinking age varied from state to state. The drinking age was 18 in most states, but in some states it was 19, 20 or 21. Then in the early 1980's there was an effort to curtail drunk driving. Instead of advocating for earlier closing times for bars and nightclubs, (which can be as late as 4am, in my native NYC), or on raising the age for driving licenses, the focus was on the drinking age. Many states refused to comply. So the federal government threatened to withhold highway funds to any state that would not raise the drinking age to 21. That's why every state in the US has 21 as the legal drinking age.
It’s probably been said already but Black Friday isn’t anything like it was when I was a kid! Online shopping with stores worldwide having “black Friday” specials days before our actual day has really hurt most retail stores here and more and more people are just not doing the typical B Friday tradition! Even here in the states for about the last 10 years or so more retail stores are foregoing b Friday and having more unprecedented sales before that. Then stores started opening for the second half of Thanksgiving Thursday to start their deals.
Yay! Congrats on the baby. Sending lots of love from Wisconsin.
When you pause you need to get in the habit of pushing the *Back🔙 Button* because many times you pause in the middle of them explaining the answer you're asking us to answer
I Love this episode!!! I am 46 years old and have never delved this deep into the history of The Declaration of Independence!!! Not even when I was younger in school!!!
"Not as violent" lol. Black Friday is just shopping. There have been incidents, but it's rare. We aren't all trampling people to death. You're more likely to die driving to the store.
Never put a whole meal in the garbage disposal. Mostly little scraps.
Girl Scout Cookies are sold only once a year as a fundraiser for the scouts. Its one of the reasons for the popularity.
During the Carter Administration (1977-1981), We tried to change to the metric system, due to an Executive Order from the President. Speed limit signs were now listing MPH and KPH. Automobile speedometers were the same way. Math teachers had to teach the children both systems, focused mainly on the metric system. Some gas pumps listed both gallons and liters. Then Reagan got elected and thankfully reversed that Executive Order
@15:30 This is an ad spoof from Saturday Night Live (sane show as Colin Jost and Michael Che jokes).
The show is live, so it’s funnier because any mistakes can’t be re-filmed. It’s written by younger comics.
They are referring to the white bread being pre-sliced and then packaged for sale.
You are correct. There was a “super size”.
I talked with a British person once who described a garbage disposal as "that terrifying sink blender thing." That's the best description I've heard to date.
I remember that spray cheese, it comes out of the can the same way reddi whip comes out of the can. We had some at home but I'm not sure who bought it, my sisters or Mom. I haven't seen a can of it in 50 years
The drinking age wass changed to 21 due to too many drunk driving accidents by those that were under 21. The federal government can't actually change the drinking age within each state, however, they can attach that requirement to federal highway funds so states make that change, which was what was done in the 1980's. States could still have a drinking age at 18, however, they would receive no money for the interstate roads through their states.
ate plenty of white bread when I lived in the Netherlands lol in the US we are taught metric in school....but we stick to what we know best lol
That spoof Chantix add was so accurate. I took Chantix to quit smoking...the mental changes were insane (no pun intended)
You actually send very little down the disposal. Mostly Scrape plate in garbage but all those stray bits left behind get sent down. Best way to not have to empty that little strainer sinks without a disposal have. If you dump everything down it, it just wears it out, can gunk up your pipes. Be good to it and it will be goid to you.
We usually run the water and push the food in the sink using a spoon or spatula from cooking into the drain, where the disposal is already running. We don’t often have to touch the food. That specific depiction was a little odd.
Binging your videos today. Thank you for all the fun content.
The reason refills are free is the cost of drinks to the restaurant is every very low. Well under $0.20 each. For many restaurants, drinks are the profit center.
I always find it funny when people get upset over the use of the imperial system. There's no wrong way to measure something.
I would like to introduce you to my system of measuring using the color blue as our base length
@@A_Name_ What's the hue to Smoot conversion?
@@NarwahlGaming Beach Ball
@@A_Name_ Hmm. Your math checks out.
As an American, I can honestly say I have only ever seen a garbage disposal on TV or in a movie.
We learn both imperial and metric, but in daily lives it’s usually imperial. I think the only thing we don’t really see metric is with kilometers, but even then sports still use kilometers and meters.
Prayers and love from Washington State. Hope for an easy delivery, Millie. Thank for entertaining us. It always makes my day to see you both.
I was watching a video about that famous river in England with the house boats on it, and all the British people were talking in Feet and Miles. "My boat is 16 feet long and I dock it 4 miles down the river."
Black Friday is not crazy like it used to be. Most stores have figured out a way to keep people from fighting and the videos you saw were the same video over again. Most people are chill about it.
White bread only in America? Somebody needs to Google on this channel. Damn, thin mints sounds so good right now! Yum 🤤 can’t wait for Girl Scout season to start back up again
That last Big Pharma commercial (satire) starred Kristin Wiig and Bill Hader, comedians of Saturday Night Live (SNL on NBC) fame. They, too, were pointing out the obvi ridic stupidity of all the manufacturers' CYA-legalese warnings of side effects one might incur, when taking said prescription meds. 😆Now, you know.
It’s always like “May cause seizures, strokes, facial paralysis, incontinence, rabies or sudden death. Start breathing without seasonal allergies and ask your doctor if sneezex is right for you.”😂
I recall back in the late 70’s early 80’s. In school when the teachers were starting to teach the kids about the metric system..and how they always were saying this is what the US is switching to…Well..that didn’t work out well..lol..and I’m glad..on Girl Scout cookies I’m thinking we’ll have to send you two some as we are coming up on the month when they come out!..Last year I stopped twice at a young ladies table outside a store and between both trips I bought over 125.00 in cookies..and thin mints are still my favorite
There used to be a "Jumbo" size at one point too
Hope your delivery is easy millie.
You were right it was a Time in America we're just about every fast food place, you can supersize your order and they would make it bigger and you can go get drinks from gas stations AKA petrol stations and you can get the supersize cup and different stuff like that but that was a long time ago they don't do that anymore
They actually ran a national poll of who would want to switch to metric because hospitals and doctors have to use metric but most of the country uses imperial and 83% wanted to keep our system! Don’t fix it if it ain’t broken
Love you guys. Good luck with the baby
The drug commercial was a comedy skit.
Shoppers have been pressed thru closed glass doors ;-(
"Super Sized" just means bigger soda and fries. The burgers stay the same. It was a sales technique to get you to pay 50 cents more for 12 cents of product. It was a deal that people thought was in their favor. Brilliant marketing.
Waste disposals are only meant for things like peelings from vegetables,and egg shells. You aren't suppose to put bones in it or packaging
The majority of Americans do not use spray cheese . That's a minor thing ,not a big part of our culture so I have no idea why they would include other than as a way to denigrate our culture
"American cheese" is a name given to a type of processed. It is not meant to be real cheese. It is mainly for melting on burgers or grilled cheese sandwiches. The states of Wisconsin and Oregon are the biggest REAL cheese producers in the US
McDonald's got rid of Super Size after Morgan Spurlock's movie embarrassed the company, but Wendy's still has Biggie Size.
I hope you recognized the drug TV commercial parodies from The Family Guy and Saturday Night Live were comedies.
Great video guys 👍🏼
McDonald's ended the "super size" extra large portions in 2004. That's nearly twenty years ago; WatchMojo isn't keeping particularly current.
Physical Black Friday sales took a huge hit during COVID. Online Cyber Mondays, week, weeks, etc. received a huge boost during the lockdowns. I don't see physical Black Friday frenzies equaling their peak from years ago. I seem to recall fewer stores extending their hours around Thanksgiving for Black Friday in the last couple of years.
Garbage disposals are great because there are inevitably some small bits left on plates, bowls, etc. and on pots and pans left to soak in the sink for cleaning. You obviously want to get the larger pieces into the garbage or a composting bin, but those aforementioned smaller bits are annoying to have to gather up for disposal.
We use US customary units, not Imperial, in the US. A US pint or gallon are smaller in volume than an Imperial pint or gallon. I suspect the UK would retain the (Imperial) pint in pubs even if the US went fully to the metric system. Don't you guys still use the stone as a unit of weight?
For those who don't know, the Great Value mint cookies from Walmart look, taste, and smell exactly like the thin mint girl scout cookies, especially when kept in the freezer.
The ones from Dollar General as well. And their version of Samoas as well. Deee-lish
15:30 that was a Saturday Night Live skit. Not a real commercial
my cat goes nuts over the canned cheese. as for black friday, I stay home and avoid shopping or any other activity on black friday.
nature's own is my fav white bread. but I also love the 12 grain bread for a turkey club.
He said that the bread there looks ooo..ah..ahhhh.
The medical care price segment is correct but also misleading. My out-of-pocket is $6,700 a year, but my insurance covers most costs so I never reach that limit, and it's easily affordable. $72 a month or so. Honestly, if you can't afford $72 a month, or even higher, that's on you.
yeah back in the day we had Super size at McDonalds when I was a kid, around the 90s and early 2000s. They no longer have Super Size.
There is actually a film called "Super Size Me" (2004).
5:21 Freeee!! 😂 Flipping hilarious 😂👍🏼
The benefit to the garbage disposal is that no food waste gets stinky in the trash can. I can go all of a week without taking out my trash if there’s no food waste in there.
It can also attract insects!
Just FYI the drug side effect thing was a joke. Our drug ads usually rattle off the side effects like an auctioneer. Also, keep in mind that the farther down the list the side effect is, the less likely it is to happen. Drug clinical (the tests before release) have to report EVERYTHING that adversely affected the patient while testing the drug, no matter how stupid sounding. If the person steps off a curb and gets hit by a bus, that has to be reported in the clinical patient testing. After a few million test patients take the drug in clinical, the top side effects are placed with the drug paperwork made available to patients at a pharmacy or online. Doctors are given a list of contraindications, medicines that don’t mix, usually in their computers. They ask you every time you go in to make sure another doctor hasn’t prescribed a drug that is causing a problem or to make sure you aren’t taking an OTC drug that causes problems. That happens a lot.
Black Friday has calmed down since online shopping came around.
Yep it's not as packed as it used to be but it wouldn't surprise be if we eventually go back to those days where shoppers are packing in stores. Plus America itself after 2020 has made people angrier and fights at stores would only show that even more.
@@runrafarunthebestintheworld Have you been to a mall lately? They are a ghost town.
I don't see the black Friday days on 1990 coming back. That shit was insane.
Millie, with the garbage disposal, you hit the nail on the head.
lol when cabbage patch kids were first introduced they were in such demand that stores would make a statement to their customers when they received a new shipment. People went crazy trying to get one and many stores had to set up with security and stuff like they typically would for thanksgiving. We didn’t have the internet so the people who would set up scams for buyers had to do something like a back alley transaction like they were selling drugs
Technically, drinking age is a state law while voting age is in the Constitution (26th amendment). The “national drinking age” is tied to federal highway funding. States can have a lower drinking age, but they lose a lot of their federal highway funds.
States can also lower the voting age. There are some who want to lower the voting age to 16. Some localities actually have 16 as their voting age for elections for that locality (mayor or county council) but not for statewide or national elections.
15:19 Was a fake/parody drug commercial from Saturday Night Live, FYI.
I think I commented on one video similar to this one. Hate Garbage disposals. It does have a switch on the wall and is loud. Throwing garbage in my sink is not appealing to a lot of us. I’d rather scrape into bag. New dishwashers you don’t have to scrape at all, so I’ve been told. That’s unappealing too. The white bread, I think he meant the fact it was sliced. Maybe that sliced white bread was started here. Who knows. McDonald’s just announced they were ending free refills. Because of the nitwits who use drive-thru and come back with empty cup in the drive-thru and want a refill. All the stupid stuff here is because of the young people, especially the out of control ones. We have a lot of them. Our Health Care system is complex but the hospitals do help you. Some stuff about this country is over the top. We are all different.
Hi guys! I can switch between Metric and Imperial pretty easily. A kilometer is 6/10 s of a mile, an inch is 2.5 centimeters, a foot is 30 centimeters, a teaspoon is 5ml and there are 3 teaspoons to a tablespoon, 2 tablespoon to an ounce hence 30 mls per ounce. 16 ozs. to a pint, 2 pints per quart, and a liter is about a quart, a kilo is 2.2 pounds (when dealing weed in high school, I always thought of the .2 as a bonus), a yard is a little less than a meter and so on. All of our medicine is metric. If you want to get into some really weird measurements, check out apothecaries measurements.

While people may think that the meter is the fundamental unit of measurement, the inch is the fundamental unit of the industrial revolution. It was the standardization of the inch that made interchangeable parts possible. The millimeter is useful only because it is 5/127 inch! And every nation on the planet agreed to this definition.
awesome video. I love your guys' content. Mad love to you both and the upcoming baby
The USA is a hybrid of Imperial, and metric systems. Anything that's medical related is usually in the metric system, as well as alcoholic products. Even big bottles of soda are in 2L bottles, however, small cans are in FL Oz,'s. Travel is in imperial, and fuels is too.
One thing that's very common nowadays in the USA (not in other countries) are multi-stories STORAGE FACILITIES.
The problem with so many of these lists, is that while these things do exist in the US, they are often far from everyday things. Girl Scout cookies are sold for only a few weeks out of every year, the exact times vary with region in order to even out production. Sure spray cheese exists, I have bought it, but I may also go years without buying the stuff, and even then may only buy it for specific uses, like a picnic travel snack. About the only thing here that most people see on a nearly daily basis is advertisements for prescription drugs, and most people ignore them, or make fun of them, as they rarely even tell you what the drug is designed to treat, instead they show people outdoors being active, and say, ask your doctor if Fakezantic is right for you.
"Sure spray cheese exists, I have bought it, but I may also go years without buying the stuff, "
Indeed, and Europeans will always act like we think that's high quality cheese or something. And they say it with their preachy tone, like they have something to teach us about food. High quality cheese would be the stuff created in Wisconsin, or Monterey Jack, which was created here in California (Monterey, California). Wine from the North Bay, as in the counties of Napa and Sonoma, is known throughout the world to be high quality wine. Personally I can't stand the taste of alcohol, but others like it.
I would also direct the Europeans to our MANY Michelin star restaurants. Michelin is a tire company in France, but they're also known for The Michelin Star Guide, which supposedly lists what the French consider to be good restaurants. We have over 100 such restaurants in San Francisco, New York has a lot more, and most major cities in the USA have many. So yeah, Europe, we know good food as well. It's not just you guys.
lol at stuck up Europeans (not the beesleys, they aren't stuck up). 🙂
Spray cheese is in stores, but I don't think that I have ever had spray cheese.
@pete56 I like it best on celery sticks. Celery by itself is kinda blah to me so it helps me ear it more but I don't really buy it either. It's also good on good crackers.
As an American, I was surprised to go to Italy and see that their portions are often larger than ours.
Hello Beesleys!
No meat or bones in the garbage disposal!!!
Legal drinking age used to be 18. They raised it to 21 in 1984. I’m not sure that you can’t drink at 18 but you can’t purchase until you’re 21.
Black Friday has been WORN OUT in the US they advertise BF year round at least every season we have someone plastering Black Friday in Spring, or what ever season they're in. They wore it out. Also any electronics at blockbuster prices are typically made quicker and cheaper just to give them a lower price, and sell more.
The drinking age was lowered at the beginning of the 1970s to 18. I turned 18 in 1974 and was drinking. The rates of drunk driving involving the age group between 18 and 21 really went up. That was when Mothers Against Drunk Drivers (ing?) started raising the alarm, so many people killed. They put the national age back up before the end of the 1970s and grandfathered all the ones that turned 18 prior to the age increase in. They were allowed to continue drinking and the law was phased out.
Apparently my mother didn't know about the phasing out/grandfathered part.
She complained about having to stop drinking well into the 1990s. 😂
@@NarwahlGamingI turned 19 in 1984 & Virginia raised the drinking age to 19. Then the next year they raised the drinking age to 21
It was part of an agreement with the federal government to raise the drinking age to 21 across the board.
There were a few states that still had younger drinking ages into the 90s & they were threatened with denial of federal funds for their interstate highway programs if they didn’t raise their ages
When I was in high school in New York State in the 1960’s, the drinking age was 18. Our neighbors from Ontario and New Jersey came to NY to drink to excess.
@@robertewalt7789 1960s NY was modern day Tijuana. Lol.
@@NarwahlGaming Might have depended on the state. I was in Maryland at the time they grandfathered the law.

Yeah our healthcare is expensive. Mostly due to the fact that the more you can pay for the better care you can receive and there are plenty of options to choose from. Things like your tax stubs, current paycheck amount, and criminal history affect what choices you may have.
I could apply for multiple health care insurance plans but the one that makes me pay 24$ per month is the one that gives me more consistant care whenever needed. There are ones that cost less that I could apply for but then I wouldnt be able to receive the same level of health care insurance as often.
For instance, certain surgical procedures or medication refills might be limited to taking off some of the cost on up to like 5 per every 3 months with the other plans. With my current one I get it as often as needed. It just costs me more per month. I also have to pay for certain things out of pocket. It varies for person to person as needed what they qualify for and need. Some people might get sick or have a illness keep coming back. I work with young kids and I do a lot of physical exercise with them. So there is more risk of them getting me sick or me getting injured by accident with them in the gym or on the playground. Mine covers my health care and dental care. It doesnt cover my eye care unfortunately considering I wear glasses. Ideally I wouldnt need to go in for a check up or any reason that often. So I just have it as a security means just in case.
