Sure, I know Americans love everything bigger and larger. But carrying a gallon container of water is a good idea? Isn’t that too big to carry all the way? It has been hot in the afternoon, and I saw someone on the street drinking water from a gallon container. Not once. Later, I saw another guy on the street drinking water from a gallon container. Tiny, little, ordinary Japanese usually carry a 500ml bottle of water. But here, Big, robust, ordinary Americans usually carry a gallon bottle of water?! One gallon equals 4 liters, which is 500ml bottles multiplied by 8, wow. Amazing Americans.
