Rice Krispies are known as what in Australia?
Rice Krispies cereal is called “Rice Bubbles” in Australia and New Zealand. And the sweet marshmallow-y dessert is called a “Rice Bubble Slice” instead of a “Rice Krispie Treat.” The cereal’s mascots “Snap, Crackle, and Pop” have the same name in Australia, but the elves’ names are different in other languages. In German, they are Knisper, Knasper, and Knusper, and in Italy they are Pif, Pof, and Paf.

What are Hostess Ding Dongs snack cakes called in Canada?
Hostess released its Ding Dongs chocolate cakes in 1967, but competing snack cake company Drake’s claimed they’d ripped off their product called Ring Dings. After Hostess changed the name of their product, the two companies ended up merging in 1998. The Ding Dongs name reigned supreme in the U.S., but the cake is still known as a King Don in Canada.

What is the name of the Mr. Clean mascot in other countries?
The original bald-headed mascot Mr. Clean was created in the 1950s, and the name “Mr. Clean” has since been translated into “Don Limpio” in Spanish and “Maestro Lindo” in Italian. But he is also known as “Mr. Proper” in the Netherlands and “Meister Proper” in Germany. Due to copyright availability, the cleaning product is sold in the U.K. and Ireland under the name Flash, and it has no mascot.

Carl’s Jr. is known by what other name in some parts of the U.S.?
Hardee’s and Carl’s Jr. both serve up burgers and fries, and they both sport a smiling gold star logo, but the two restaurant chains have some differences of geography and personality. Hardee’s restaurants are in the Midwestern and Southeastern U.S., while Carl’s Jr. restaurants are in the West and Southwest regions. While Carl’s Jr. is known for its provocative advertisements featuring supermodels (and celebs like Paris Hilton), Hardee’s sticks with a more wholesome approach.

Outside the U.S., Axe body spray is named for what big cat?
Axe body spray debuted in France in 1983, and it wasn’t introduced to the U.S. until 2002. When the brand expanded to the U.K. in the 1980s, the trademark for the name “Axe” was already taken, so Unilever branded the spray after the lynx wildcat. Today the cologne is also sold under the name Lynx in Australia, Ireland, and China.

Burger King is called Hungry Jack’s in which country?
The fast food restaurant has over 17,000 locations around the globe, but when Burger King expanded to Australia in the 1970s, the American company quickly discovered there was already a burger chain there with the same name. So the first local franchisee, Jack Cowin, coined the name “Hungry Jack's” after himself.

“Kraft dinner” is Canada’s name for what American meal?
Canadians eat a lot of Kraft macaroni and cheese, so much so that it is simply known as Kraft Dinner or “KD” for short. In fact, a 2015 report showed that Canadians eat 55% more Kraft macaroni and cheese than Americans do. While the box is still blue and the ingredients are similar, there are some subtle differences. In a blind taste test between the two, Canadians overwhelmingly chose the KD, while Americans chose the American version.
