- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.

(I'm in the US). I've been told by multiple friends in multiple countries that they appreciate Reese's Pieces peanut butter candies. The salty-sweet combo is unique and they don't get them often in their countries.
My other go-tos depending on who I'm visiting would be a locally roasted coffee or an over-the-top flavor bomb craft beer. Like my local brewery has a seasonal on rotation right now, "Sprinkled doughnut double spiced oatmeal stout" with a bright, colorful can. My German friend is offended but intrigued by the beers I bring. Usually he gets playfully wound up insisting they don't count as real beer.
Don’t worry, Germans are offended by every non-German beers.
Am German, found the exception. There is a beautiful little brewery in Lucerne right at the Lake. Go there and drink one of both beers on tap. Yes its that good. :)
