For me it's the other way around. Magnum is the most well-known (and most common) ice cream brand in France, but I've never heard of a wine bottle referred as a "magnum".
I second that ! I thought the answer was blackberry and didn't get why it said "red", so I tried every red berry I know... I didn't think of apples, since for me they're mostly green or yellow...
Same, the "red" really threw me. First typed cherry, I know, it's not electronics. Suddenly loking at electronics apple came to mind. Then I thought, huh but they aren't red, ow yea, I guess sometimes they are, a little bit.
My response to this is that "coke" isn't a brand. Coca-Cola is the brand. So by your very argument, the name under brand should be Coca-Cola or you should entirely remove the question from the quiz.
I agree that Coke is accepted as a brand and many of their products such as the bottle of Diet Coke that I am currently looking at does not have the words Coca Cola anywhere on the label.
Yes, and sometimes the tines on a trident are arrowhead-shaped at the ends. Tridents are used for gigging fish or frogs while a pitchfork is used for pitching hay. It's like saying a hoe and a shovel are the same thing.
I'm sure the vast majority of us would fail a quiz based on brand names well known in India. Other than Indians or expats living there. These quizzes are about common knowledge.
hm.. never heard of a wine bottle being called that. I often miss the questions aimed at alcoholics. If you had said gun preferred by Dirty Harry I might have gotten that.
As for many other quizzes, a lot of answers are specific to the US. Americans are, after all, the dominant group of quizz-makers here I guess.
Apples are seldom red. (Pink or ‘blush’ or russet maybe.)
