This might be because they weren't invented or originally produced in Vienna, but in Berlin by the employee of a wine restaurant with the last name Wiener. So calling them Vienna sausages by the yanks is just plain wrong, they should call them Wiener sausages. -
That name is used for hot dogs in America.
Guess that means our wieners are bigger than yours.No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.Comment

It makes europeans look as snotty and self-centered as they really are to refuse to believe that no other country in the world outside of europe can possibly produce a food product of quality.Originally posted by Asmodean
I'm sorry, but it really makes Americans look stupid, that they can not see why Europe cares about this.

I'm sure you'd hate it if some Euro company (like Nestlé) sold a disgusting frost crepe with tomato dressing, and trademarked it as "New York Pizza".
When American places will be associated with good foods abroad (one day will come when you'll stop only to export your crap
), I don't think you want these location names to be tainted by subpar products stealing them.

and actually, there is "pizza" sold all over the US that is marketed as New York pizza, but it isn't even close.
you just know not to eat it in los angeles.
I never stopped to think about making los angeles stop calling there pizza "ny pizza" by law.
Something like that doesn't even cross my mind...
and America is the self-centered, selfish, arrogant, vain culture??

Simple. For now, there is nearly no good American food that is well known abroad. The US only exports its crap (Mc Donald's and Burger King), so foreign companies won't use American location names to make their product more attractive (you won't see a "Phoenix Ham" abroad, whereas you see "Parma Ham" in the US).Originally posted by vee4473
And please explain your second paragraph.
But as the US get older, and as the American cuisine becomes better, some good products will emerge and will ultimately be linked to the location where they're produced. For example, one day, some Californian wines enter the competition of the very best. "California" will be a name associated with quality, the same way "Bordeaux" or "Champagne" are today.
By that time, China will probably sell some vinegar, calling it (and trademarking it inside its borders) "Californian". Not only will that taint the prestigious name of California into luring the Chinese consumer California is such crap, it will also bar real Calfornian producers to sell their quality wine in the Chinese market
