A box of tissue = USA (Iowa). Some joke about crying over the trade deficit is appropriate perhaps.

Fortunately I build my PC myself, (although admittedly, it took me more than 10 minutes, and I bled all over the motherboard in the process) but we're now so removed from what we consume that many people just aren't able to recognise what it is that they eat, let alone that they use in the office or garage.
