The phrase everyone's looking at is "bless you" these days (US accent) ... the Germans are not the badies anymore ... sorry to say, but strangely enough, they are among the good guys now.

I've always preferred "gesundheit" as it's wishing the person good health rather than using religious terminology.

The polish version (Na zdrowie!) is basically the same, someone should make a map of what kind of response one gives when someone sneezes (religious, health, etc.)
