    German here 👋 When I ate my first American Cheesecake in the US I actually thought that something was wrong with it and I let the others at my table which were all Americans taste as well. They all said it was alright. It was pure sweet and almost inedible for my German cheese cake taste. I never ate one after that experience 😅

      I went to the US in the early '90s, I tried a McDonalds to see if it tasted the same as an Australian version, i couldn’t eat it, I had one bite… went wtf, again, gagged a little and gave up, the bun was toxic sweet. i initially assumed it was a joke that staff had played, putting sugar on the burger becase of my accent or something but no that’s just how sweet it tastes apparently

      That same influence in The Philippines, the bread there is mostly inedible, so sweet, similarly pastas etc
