English Soccer Fan Takes H-E-B Seasoning Back to England

As thousands of international fans continue making memories across the Lone Star State, it turns out some of them are also leaving with a few unexpected tastes of Texas.

Cowboy hats? Sure. Boots? Absolutely!

But one English soccer fan visiting Texas for the World Cup left the Lone Star state with a souvenir that somehow feels even more Texan: a bottle of Uncle Chris' Gourmet Steak Seasoning from H-E-B.

One England Fan Found an Unexpected Texas Souvenir

After England's 2-1 win over Croatia last week, one supporter shared the ultimate keepsake from his trip to Texas: a bottle of Uncle Chris' Gourmet Steak Seasoning!

That's kind of an elite souvenir choice. This guy’s carne asada is about to be bomb!

Out of everything Texas has to offer, from cowboy hats to giant belt buckles, this fan decided the perfect reminder of his trip would be something to put on a steak.

And if you've spent enough time around Texas cookouts and backyard grills, you know Uncle Chris' is practically a pantry staple.

International Visitors Apparently Love Taking America's Flavors Home

As random as steak seasoning might sound, it's apparently part of a growing trend.

The TSA has even been joking online about the number of international travelers trying to bring ranch dressing home with them!

The obsession has become so real that Kraft recently launched travel-friendly ranch packets for people who can't leave America without taking some ranch with them.

This May Actually Be the Perfect Texas Souvenir

The more you think about it, the more sense it makes.

Texas has barbecue, grilling culture, and H-E-B. And somehow, all of those things are neatly wrapped up in one little bottle of seasoning!

The England fans may have arrived hoping for a World Cup victory, and they got one. But at least one supporter is also heading home with something he probably never expected to buy: a taste of Texas that can fit right in his suitcase.
