Ten of the Dumbest Things Many Americans Believe
I ask you, are Americans dumb or just uneducated?
Here’s the countdown:
Number 10: Chocolate milk comes from brown cows.
Seven percent of the people in the U.S. who are old enough to have completed an Innovation Center of U.S. Dairy poll think that chocolate milk comes straight from brown cows. Seven percent of the U.S. That’s 16.4 million people who never watched Mama stir cocoa and sugar into hot milk or Mama Cow being milked.
Where do these people think strawberry milk comes from?
Number 9: Wakanda is a real country.
Since 2018 when “Black Panther,” the movie, was released, a number of people have tried to find Wakanda on Google Maps. It isn’t on a map.
Entering “Wakanda, Africa” in maps will bring you a non-profit organization, a web host, and a couple of hotels. Googling “How many people tried to find Wakanda on a map” will bring you to a Quora answer, “If Wakanda were a real nation, it would be in North-Western Kenya, bordering Lake Turkana, Ethiopia, South Sudan, and Uganda.” But it isn’t a real nation. It’s a fictional nation.
