TikTokers and Aussies baffled by viral American food 'discovery'

Americans are discovering the concept of buttered sandwiches for the first time, leading to hilarious reactions from people around the world. A TikTok video showing a U.S. woman in France making a sandwich with ham, cheese, and butter went viral, with viewers outside the U.S. expressing their confusion and disbelief. American lifestyle media company Pure Wow tried the buttered sandwich and labeled it a "new food hack," causing even more shock and disbelief. Australians, in particular, found it amusing and questioned what Americans used butter for if not on bread.
