I got 9 out of 11- the two I got wrong were Poland and, yup, Scotland. I
think I knew what answer they _wanted_, but I certainly never called
lunch dinner! (That's a common think in the NW of England too I've
noticed.)

I got that one right. It's something which I find very unsettling to
behold, as it seems so anti-social.

I only got 5 of 11. I was told to learn a few more manners, and I would do
just fine in the big world out there.

One of the questions I answered wrong was the one on asking for catsup in
France. The quiz said this was a no-no, that it meant you didn't like the
food. I have a Dutch friend who just has to have catsup with his steak, he
speaks no French, I asked for it for him in the restaurant where we went
together, no one raised an eyebrow. We went to the same restaurant together
a number of times, the next time they all remembered that he wanted catsup
with his steak and brought it automatically. This was in the provinces,
however. Maybe our quizmaster had been only to Paris.

English kids eat school dinners, not school lunches
