Which reminds me of a tale told by friends who took a car trip across
Canada. At one of the small towns in the prairies, they stoped at a
fast food place, saw that they had ice cream on the menu and asked
what flavors were available. Only to be met with a blank look and
"Flavors?" ((apoparentluy the vanilla soft serve was the only ice
cream the locals had ever encountered)
I'd say that this would be rare after the Internet, but not impossible.
Dairy is pretty common all over the prairies and ice cream flavours are many in most places (or at least known to be many, if not all on hand).
But if you go deep enough into any backwoods and meet people who've never gone further than 20 km from their home... yeah.
All of the above show ways to trip up players. Or just give them that
"we aren't in Kansas anymore" feeling.
