In North America we’re meant to believe any product that is European etc is better/fancier than what is made here. Italian marble, Belgian chocolate, etc. What’s a product in Europe that’s made in the Americas that follows the same principle?

There are luxury brands from the US sold in Europe, but none of them have American in the title(like Apple products, mentioned in other comments) . I think peanut butter(which isnt that popular) is more valued if it’s American.
entertainment products
Someone said dreams not sure if it’s true
Certain brands of ice cream.
Tesla cars, Apple products, lots of electronics.
Movies
Weapons
Nothing I can think off. Everything food related is better if it’s local or at least European. Soft drinks like cola maybe. But that’s a bit of an oddball as I don’t drink cola or anything a like.
None, a lot of Europeans see America as a third world country
The US is leading in tech and innovation, all major tech brands in the world are from the US. The US also ranks third on the global innovation index (2021)
America makes stuff? I thought all your stuff is now made in China?
Poutine. Chicago deep-dish pizza. (Not *any* pizza, *Chicago-style* pizza.) Ceviche.
I usually steer clear of American products in grocery stores 😅
I guess theres lots of Apple users and European phone brands dont come close to that
The ’68 ford mustang.
After that, not much.
Apart from Reeses, that is
Snickers
Software
Loud arrogance.
White y shirts with the red Levi’s logo
Zippos?
Hickory handles are highly regarded any Briggs and Stratton engine
Outside of Italy I don’t really see Europe as higher quality. I guess Germany makes high end glass.
But if Ikea furniture is any indication of European quality, then I got some bad news
American Ammunition?
Entertainment, specifically movies and music.
Everything else is outsourced to other countries
Lots of Europe has better product regulation than the US.
