Jay a door francis cuisine

The UK really shouldn't talk shit in the food department 😂

Mate tikka masala is an "Indian" dish that was literally invented in England.

We appropriated all the shit from all over the world, then made it more universally good.

Meanwhile a fucking "bland" pie is wholesomely awesome comfort food, when done right.

If anything, it's our close ties to America that screw us over. We've taken their commercialised factory production and applied it to our stuff, and often the cost cutting has ruined it - just like American food. But, sometimes, we manage to make golden gems like a Gregg's sausage bean and cheese pasty.

Also, US (and Canadian) streaky bacon is shit. Back bacon - specifically "dry cured" back bacon (which is a protected term and must be done by hand instead of factory brine injected processing) - is the ultimate in piggy goodness.

But even factory back bacon is better than streaky, streaky is just the fat, while back has a chunk of meat to it. Harder to cook, but when you do it just right (render the fat at a low temp, then whack it up to cook the rest) it's bloody divine. Professional kitchens just do it in an oven, but if you carefully lay the bacon on top of one another in a frying pan, such that the fat touches the pan while the meat sits on top (except for the first piece, which is special) you can render the fat out at a low temp and then fry it perfectly all spread out. The goal is crispy fat, but tender meat.

Pigs won't fly, especially not in the US, but a good bacon bap in the UK can give you wings.

And I haven't even started talking about fresh little pork pies from small local Yorkshire butchers.
- We have every culture's food here. Ha.
True, British food is so far ahead that any comparison is just plain unfair.
- Lmao holding deep fried scraps up as a shining achievement in cuisine is NOT helping your case
Omg change the record.... what next our teeth? Jeezuz. Dated tropes wheeled out again. Where are you from? Let's do your country next? Yawn. Just be nice. It's freaking easy.
- As if Europeans are ever nice about what happens here in America.
  
  As the Brits say: "jog on"
- let's shit on some cultures food, oh no, not mine

The beauty of it's women and the quality of it's cuisine makes the British the best sailors in the world

- Its vs it’s got me for a long time. I want to add the apostrophe because it’s possessive, but possessive pronouns are an exception and don’t need one. Think of his, hers, yours, theirs. All are possessive but don’t need the apostrophe.

Pardon my French, you dirty cunt.

It's like the kid in that meme where both paths are dark. On one side is mashed peas and on the other is literal cooked snails.

Edit: accuracy, I don't think you'd mix the mashed peas with beans at least

Both of those are quite nice if done well tbh
- I don't doubt it, but you'd need to do something incredible to mashed peas to make me prefer them that way over non-mashed (and not overcooked) peas seasoned with salt and pepper
  
  Never tried the snails, maybe one day but I've never had the opportunity
mashed peas

Do you mean mushy peas, love?

There's a lot in British Cuisine that I would skip, but I could really go for some fish and chips.

When I worked in france the cafeteria called it "fish and ships"

The French just can't help but be terrible people.
