That's a good reminder of the consumer protections in the US.

The first couple times I ventured out of the US, I was struck by the differences in environment for some companies.

For example in Mexico, I was struck by plentiful advertising for cigarettes and hard alcohol. Strangely, Coca Cola advertisements on the TV always had a legal disclaimer, something like "always with food" (I recall poorly).

The strangest one for me was billboard adverts for politicians. Those are banned here in the UK.
