I admire you Americans very much, but tell me is rationing as rife as it is here in the UK?

Question

one cannot purchase a pound of onions here unless you first buy 7 pounds of potatoes?

Answer 1

I have a jar of unopened red onion marmalade.

Any offers?

lol

Answer 2

Tell them about the restrictions on jam, too. Only one jar per week, unless it's plum flavoured. Not fair at all.

Answer 3

No. There's no rationing. I live in a remote area and availability is an issue sometimes. But, there's always hunting to fill that gap.

Answer 4

Why must u buy potatoes first in The UK?

Answer 5

The Americans are a fortunate race for they have no rationing.The only thing I could say is that 7 pound of potatoes fits their mouths quite comfortably and with their a******s connected straight to their mouth holes,no inbetween,it suits them greatly to perform great deeds.

Answer 6

We don't have anything like that in the US.

Answer 7

Can't get a dolphin steak for love nor money,I blame the Japanese

Answer 8

That sounds bogus. Why in America you can walk into any gun shop and by a half dozen exocet missiles, no questions asked, unless you are wearing religious headgear, in which case the stock boy will shoot you in the temple.

Answer 9

yes but on the bright side we can buy as much tripe as we like on Mondays
