Country Myth Busters - Ends 21st October

[Sloths]

Recently I've discovered the amazing thing that is candy corn. To me it tastes like vanilla fudge but I was really put off trying it from a lot of Americans saying how gross it was... maybe they were just saying that to keep it all for themselves! It just reminds me of .Cymru. and my conversations about how we see way more cows than we do sheep even though we live in countries known for having more sheep than people.

My task for you is to do a bit of myth busting, name a stereotype or rumour about a country that you know not to be true similar to those above.

Prize: 5 credits + 15 rep

All scottish people have green eyes, drink tea, wear kilts, live in castles and are ginger.

I am scottish and I have never seen someone wear a kilt. I see very different coloured eyes. Lots of don't like tea, including myself. I see more of any color other than ginger, I think there's no gingers where I love.. And we most certainly don't live in castles.

Oh, and out of all the people I've met in Scotland, no one likes haggis.

Brazil is a great country to leave, everything works as it should, no corrupts..... All brazilians like soccer, samba ... Rio isn't known....
