I dunno man when I was in the UK I had a shit ton of awesome food. Lots of fried fish, roasted meat, savory and sweet pies, sausages, breads, cheeses, not to mention the crossover and fusion food like Indian and South Asian.
They have the best bacon
The dairy and processed meats in the UK are fire!
Is Harry Gow a bad place for sausage? I had a full breakfast every chance but only got sausage once.
Any recs?
But did you get a Meal Deal?
I got a full English twice, so there’s that.
Haha if you go back, Meal Deals are addictive. They look like cheap gas station sandwiches, but they’re quality ingredients with good fresh bread. Combos we don’t get here like cheese and onion are just a very different thing than you would expect.
Don’t knock it until you’ve been on rationed flour for several years
Fry your flour in butter.
you guys remind me of a girl I used to work with who would always mock “white people food,” except that to her that really just meant “poor white people food.” It’s not gourmet, but sometimes all you have is fucking bread.
Tikka Masala is pretty fuggin’ good. And you lot did invent Worcestershire sauce. Oh, and your packaged snacks? Hugely better than the crap we get in the states. But you can have Mushy Peas.
Worcestershire sauce was a recreation of an Indian sauce by a pair of English men.
Tikki Masala was invented by a Pakistani chef living in Scotland.
Technically both British creations, but I feel like it’s hard to list them as fully British in origin.

The company has also claimed that “Lord Sandys, ex-Governor of Bengal” encountered it while in India with the East India Company in the 1830s, and commissioned the local pharmacists (the partnership of John Wheeley Lea and William Perrins of 63 Broad Street, Worcester) to recreate it. However, neither Marcus Lord Sandys nor any Baron Sandys was ever a Governor of Bengal, nor had they ever visited India as far as available records indicate.
The Fat Duck, a restaurant with three Michelin stars, serves toast sandwich as a side dish.
So, you tell me.
The only people who survived medieval England were those who could psychologically tolerate bland food.
Ok, Brits… what is GOOD British food? Fish ‘n Chips? Mushy Peas? Full English? Sunday Roast? I’ve been to the UK more times than I can count and even the Pubs often serve international fare instead of Spotted Dick.
I ate a lot of good food when I visited the UK. Honestly anyone who claims <place> has only bad food has a skill issue.
Thought the food was a running joke for ages till I went and had some of their Fish and Chips at nice pub. Oh boy was I wrong! That and the curry will absolutely blow your mind.
“So, you’re saying if you put a slice of bread between two slices of bread, then that’s a bread sandwich?”
“Well, yes, technically. But, you wouldn’t eat it that way.”
Because you toast the middle piece, and butter it.
1861? I wonder what the original poster’s ancestors were eating back then.
Place of Origin: United Kingdom
Yeah, that checks out
I used to eat potato chip and bologna sandwiches. Thats as weird as I got
I still do this. I save easily $200/month eating it 3 days a week. Pro tip: the bread and bologna at Aldis is S tier and with the right addons and seasonings it’s a fantastic light meal.
That says it’s from the 19th century. What American food from then wasn’t garbage?
This is like water pie
