    In America we have one primarily language and it’s acceptable to call it chili, chilli or chile.

      In America? One language? Talk about US-centric thinking, the continent is a bit larger mate.

        Drives me nuts when Europeans don’t get that America is the USA and North America is the continent.

        It’s like when idiots call Europe a country.
