Same thing happens in the US.

The hand washing rate in restrooms is about 10% if there is no one else using the restroom.

Yeah, but what's up with those teeth? Don't they have any dentists over there?

British dentistry has traditionally been a matter of replacing teeth with dentures.

They are only now starting to promote the American habit of preventing tooth decay. It took them a while to remove sugared toothpaste from the market ( tooth paste was a cosmetic item, and not a medical item, for years there ).

Most brits I've talked to are somewhat amazed that I still have all my teeth while over 50.

black stones, called moon rock-Kaaba, AKA Allah...
