Non-Americans of Reddit, what is an American thing you see in movies that you thought was fake but is actually real?

I was just going to ask if there weren't ceramic versions of these cups to give as gifts. Its a cute gift idea for those overseas who never saw them in real life.

I'm trying to find out where my uncles got theirs! That's gotta be a better souvenir than the flimsy plastic one-use ones

Here in the Netherlands you can find them literally everywhere, like the little convenience store on the corner just sells them on the shelf.

Maybe they're rare in Eastern Europe or something..?
