****Official LOL at the British Thread****

[Womble]

I might make a thread on decent British food. We have a long list of shitty foods/dishes but there's certainly a couple of dozen things we do that are very tasty. Desserts in particular are our forte and in my opinion you lot don't have anything that comes close to a well made sticky toffee pudding.

You guys need to keep it basic like in the Balkans. Smoked meat and cheese and liquor. That place is my paradise.

I've been to Romania, Serbia and Croatia and my favourite thing from there was the dry-cured Romanian "Pleșcoi" sausages. But in general I'm more a fan of the cured/smoked meat platters you get from Spanish tapas bars/restaurants which I hear you don't really have many of in America.

For desserts off the top of my head: sticky toffee pudding, apple pie & apple crumble (both ours), egg custard tarts, Victoria sponge cake, bread & butter pudding, carrot cake, scones with jam & cream, Eton mess, treacle tart and Scotland's national dish - the deep fried mars bar.

I loved the scones. That was pretty much it. All fish had the skin on. The beer did get cold between my first visit and my second trip.

Yeah sure some of those sweet pastries are surely indulgent treats, thats fine

But where are those uniquely British main courses?

Beef, chicken, lamb, pork, seafood... you're an island nation ffs, surely you have a killer seafood game beyond fish & chips?

Start the British foods thread, its will be educational and a great distraction during these offseason doldrums

Mate I’m British and the last thing you want to do is get into a debate about British food.

It’s universally derided for good reason and you will just dig yourself into a bigger hole trying to justify it.

The problem is you weirdos would call something a “pudding” when it’s concoction of chopped ferrets and cigarette butts.

My wife watches that Great British Baking Show and from what little I've seen the judges will try and and trick the bakers into making some wild ass stuff like mad cow hoof and mouth disease cookies called Tops and Chonkers thinking they spoofed them

Then some countryside weirdo contestant will get all excited and say something like "me nan on meez [inaudible] side youz a make deez err fortnight durin a wolf moon wen weez ittle" like they have the upper hand in the challenge

Is everything pudding over there? Is it because of the teeth?

Of all the things they pushed on the people of India, cricket has to be the worst. Truly the dullest sport ever invented.

Peas are my favorite veggie, and NO they dont have to be mushy... buy frozen and add them to a rolling boil with butter for 3 minutes tops
