Note for Europeans -

This is a weird US thing. Their toilets are an odd trap design with a floor level outlet, plus the pipework is narrower and more likely to block.

Regarding sinks, for some reason bottle traps like we have scare them, so they can't just unscrew the trap to clean it

You, however, are very unlikely to ever need a plunger at any point in your life

I’ve been to the US exactly once in my life, and I clogged the toilet at the hotel I stayed at. Never had it at home.

Probably just coincidence, but hey

You went to a country with incredibly poor-quality, high fibre ultra-processed food, coupled with medieval-level plumbing, then clogged a toilet and said -

Probably just coincidence
