The common Kiwi kitchen essential Americans don't use

You won't find an electric kettle in American households.
For many Kiwis, there is nothing better than waking up to the sound of the kettle boiling in the morning. Some of us aren't even able to start our day without a warm cup of tea.
It comes as no surprise then that Twitter was in uproar last night over the discovery that most Americans don't use electric kettles.

Personally I got a "CHARGE" out of it - - - however, dump some coffee grounds in that pot instead of tea, if ya don't mind

I'm with OUP…does a percolator count?
We actually keep an electric kettle of some sort to get water ready for French press.
Yup - we like coffee!

Re: Boiling water lol
Lived in Scotland 5 years and my bride had a friend who when she came over would say "put the kettle on" when she arrived. But not for tea ☕️. It was for instant coffee ☕️. Nescafé ☕️
We have an electric kettle we keep in a closet that we pull out for tea when we have visitors from Scotland. plenty Earl Grey on hand when they visit.

Re: Boiling water lol
Back before Puberty, I was hospitalized and diagnosed with Severe Allergies. My Mom was instructed to take me off of all Dairy Products plus Eggs. My breakfast for over a year was Toast (no butter), Hot Tea (straight black) and Grits with salt (no butter). Whatever it was that they "thought" I had must have gone away because all of a sudden I was back to eating what I wanted to.
