Okay guys, we have a shared heritage, we speak the same language. We gotta get along. So what if almost all of the UK's native food is bland mcnasty. Americans don't really have native food and mostly just appropriated/slightly changed ethnic dishes that are definitely way the gently caress better than anything you will ever get in the UK save maybe indian food and kebabs.

That's bad, sure. They also have that thing where they say the wrong words and their slang is garbage. Fine.

But they're mostly irrelevant trying to keep to themselves and run their lovely nightmare island, whereas the united states alternates between merely domineering and imposing all over the world to actively crazy and dangerous on a pretty accurate 4/8 year cycle, which is maybe worse. Lets find some middle ground here.

Americans also have corn and most corn dishes are as bland as anything a Londoner could serve me from his/her family cookbook. We're not innocent here.

They don't have native food from white people but that's because white people aren't native to the US.

It's kinda hard to argue that Mexican food isn't native food, at least any less than how potatoes are a native food of [anywhere in the Eastern Hemisphere].

In our ongoing effort to depopulate Scotland, one plucky chip shop owner will wrap a big mac in 1lb of donner kebab meat, batter and deep fry it. 2000 calories and 16g of salt.

I will fight you, the international section at Kroger is the only thing that prevents my imminent suicide due to the poor quality of US confections and biscuits.

But yes obviously if we only ate canned and dry goods it would be quite sad, why don't they import the fresh meat, vegetables and fruit from Britain and put it in the British isle as well??? Hmmm I just don't know

Here in the United States of America, or as you foreigners may know it, the "Colonies" and/or "The Rodeo Zone", we have a wide variety of spicy pepper-based sauces, which typically are marketed based on what they will do to your anus on the way back out. We put them on basically everything, with some variation depending on region.

The trick with 'British food' is that there really is no such thing in this day and age, and if you live in an exciting part of Britain (read: London) then you have access to the best of every type of cuisine from anywhere around the world. For example; within ten minute's walk from me there's a whole street were you can get the best Pho outside Hanoi, or five minutes beyond that, the best kebabs outside Istanbul. Five minutes the other way gets you a better salt beef bagel than any deli in New York.

And I daresay our BBQ and burger joints (we've got a lot of them) could give the better places in America a run for their money.

Also lol at OP casting aspersions because of an aisle for specific nostalgic childrens food. We've got "American' aisles full of Kraft Dinner and jars of Fluff, so I guess that's all you guzzle down, right?

Soiled Meat
The British are pathetic creatures who have no idea how to cook anything, who buy even the simplest meals pre-packaged, and who consider it a major effort to thaw a bag of frozen vegetables Most degenerated Britons couldn't even get their dailyy meal without an immigrant working a take away slavery place - calling the take away number counts for cooking the dinner. They are so retarded most of them have to buy wrapped fruit bits because they have no idea how to eat fruits without any plastic, also what the gently caress does an apple look like before it's sliced by the industrial cutting device?

I suppose the Americans are no better, but the British are literally sub-human scum when it comes to food, ans they are just a generatipon away from being replaced by the keen Polish immigrants.

Well now they do. You may have heard of the British Empire, it was like the modern US but actually competent at killing brown people. Guess they got it out of their system.

True dat. And midwestern "real americans" have all thier casserole poo poo that's as bad or worse than any british food.

I guess the truth is WASPs have the worst food no matter what side of the ocean they're on. The english had to go conquer half the world to steal their spices and recipes. America had to reluctantly allow a bunch of immigrants to come open restaurants, because we're too lazy to even cook for ourselves.
