Things "Americano"... and Singaporeana?

Buzzfeed ran an article about things Americans (US Citizens) miss when they go abroad. Or didn't realise was "American" until they couldn't get it. (Throughout this article, I'll use "American" to mean "US Citizen" cos that's what the article did. Apologies to Mexicans, Venezuelans, Peruvians, Brazilians, Ecuadorians, and other "Americans".)

1 Free Ketchup. For Singaporeans, it would be chilli sauce.

2 Ranch as default dressing. Singaporeans - Soy Sauce?

3 Ubiquity of red Solo cups. No Singapore equivalent. Sorry.

4 Strong water pressure. Same.

5 Giant gaps in public restrooms. You're on your own here, America.
