Felt relatively easy for once

Yeah this one was quite straightforward. Usually you get one set that just makes absolutely no sense, especially if you are not a native english speaker.

Agreed, or even not being an American. I'm in Canada, and sometimes there are a few categories that make no sense because they're specific to American culture / trivia

Exactly. Even today if the others weren't as easy I would not guess the cheese section because what the hell is string cheese?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Ah, lucky for me that's something I grew up seeing advertisements about

You can pull it apart in a "fun" way, mostly aimed at kids

String cheese is any of several different types of cheese where the manufacturing process aligns the proteins in the cheese, making it stringy.

TIL how it actually works

Must be some kind of other side of the pond stuff. Never seen anything like it in Europe.

Strangely purple just jumped out at me today (for some unknown reason 🙄)

Yeah absolutely, same. Purple was just really obvious to me. I got the others in a perfect reverse rainbow through a lot of careful hard work and a little bit of luck, but purple came first because for me it was just obvious.
