We say charcuterie too sometimes but usually that's in a fancy context. We're an Anglophone nation, Pierre, give us a break.

Americans think smörgåsbord means "plenty". It means butter goose table and reffers to a breakfast table.

Vad fan snackar du om, smörgåsbord avser buffémåltider som utvecklats ur brännvinsbordet. Inte ens dess ursprung har något uttryckligen att göra med frukost.

as someone whose cooked in fine dinning establishments in both the US and Canada I can say that the term charcuterie is as heavily used there as it is here.
