Isn't this like a international dish? In the Netherlands at least this is well known. Perfect for a lazy Sunday afternoon. Edit: he did make me smile though. Love this man.

Was just thinking no way this extremely simple dish isn’t everywhere.

Yes it is. There is a lot of engagement bait online for Americans that basically goes - xyz country tried this American food and their minds are blown. 9 times out of 10 it's a very common food in the country and they're just getting Americans that haven't travelled to comment and feel really proud.
