This is like the opposite of cultural appropriation: There are so many things I take for granted in Canada that I assume America had it first.

I hate you America... give me my ketchup potato chips. You douse everything else in the stuff, so why not my chips

depends on where at in america I suppose. my yankee step dad says somewhere he lived growing up people would get offended if you put ketchup on hotdogs saying it was for fries not hotdogs. where as I grew up, ketchup just seems to naturally go on a hotdog for most people.

Probably because Seuss has written multiple books that are massive bestsellers that have entered the public pop culture consciousness to the point where even people who have never read a single book he's written know who he is pretty much by osmosis, while Munsch has apparently written a ton of books I have literally never heard of nor remember ever seeing in any bookstore, and is in no way anything resembling the sort of household name (regardless of how you feel about their actual writing) that Seuss is.

I sort of get the impression that any Munsch fans that DO exist are almost certainly 90s kids, though, which sort of biases me against him just from that alone. And from the whole "He's apparently not good enough to not be mostly obscure" thing.
