And we have Northern rednecks: same over sized 4X4s, also fast
snowmobiles, country music and rap are about 50/50 but always loud.

 SD> there is a sushi bar here

Sushi doesn't have to be a snob thing, but like wine, coffee and tea it
can turn into that.

 SD> humorous for me to hear the locals complain about the "half-hour rush
 SD> hour"

Ours is only 12 minutes long, so easy to avoid.

 SD> I've not had caribou before-is it just
 SD> another type of venison

Pretty much. It has a gamier taste than deer but I attribute that to
its diet. Southern deer get to poach farmer's fields but caribou
must survive on moss, willows and pine bark. Moose is the tastiest
of the deer family and elk the most beef-like. but caribou is what
we have here.

Exactly.

Coffee

There is no doubt that white people love coffee. White people all
need Starbucks, Second Cup or Coffee Bean.If you want to go for
extra points...  white people really love FAIR TRADE coffee, because
paying the extra $2 means they are making a difference.

Tea:

It is a known fact that white people consume, on average 25
different teas in a given year. Back in the old days, white people
would go all over the world to get teas from places like India and
Sri Lanka.  They were pretty into it and all of a sudden white
people are into tea.  But as we moved forward, white people were
like “man, one kind of tea is not enough, we need more.ö And now
people are into Green Tea, Chamomile, Chai, White Tea, Red Tea,
Jasmine Tea, Oolong Tea, Black Tea, Orange Pekoe, and other
specialty blends.  They are even opening stores and websites devoted
to sending white people all sorts of tea.If you find yourself in a
situation with a white person, acceptable things to say include “I’m
really into tea right now,ö or “my favorite thing is to get a nice
cup of tea and curl up in a chair with a good book.ö  But do not
remind them about the role of colonialism in tea, it will make them
feel sad.
