Every month or two, a new round of Australians learn that most Americans don’t have kettles and absolutely lose their minds. It’s exciting to watch unfold.

                        Hmm, early data does not show an extreme lack of kettles in the US, but it DOES show Australians are very loyal to electric kettles above all.
                        
                        
                        
                        
                                                
                        
                                                
                    
                    
                                    
                    
                        
                        
                        This convo has also reminded me that I absolutely called an electric kettle a “hot water maker” before moving to Australia
