    Same here but add regional spins to local produce and add the large number of Latin American and South Western cuisines that are almost nonexistent in Europe (a culinary sin of the highest order.) and you begin to get the idea.

    However popular culture creates these stereotypes of the British food scene being dominated by repulsive local food traditions like Hagis and kidney pie and conversely the American food stereotype is dominated by equally repulsive American fast food. Ask a Brit who's never been to the U.S. What his notion of the U.S. Food scene is and he'd probably say McDonalds or Burger King.

    British people are better than Americans at being racist. Britain is the world's most racist, xenophobic, and bigoted country.

    get yourself one of those "hot air fryers"that are all the rage now. I sell them off TV for about $150,but I've seen them on QVC for $99
    They would be perfect for grilled veggies.

    Don't get me wrong, I will probably live British cuisine whenever I make it out there. But, I'm a guy who could live on pub food. This is one of those arguments where you don't want me on your side, because my palate is garbage.

    You think people are trash?

    Mott, you're a good bloke but hopelessly naive. Get your arse over here and stop being so jingoistic.
