fish and chips
Can someone redpill me on British cuisine? When I think of it off the top of my head, the only thing that comes to mind is [spoiler]fish and chips[/spoiler] but that obviously couldn't be it right? I've heard of some thing like bangers and mash, I'm not sure if that's not just some weird yeti, ghetto slang from there or not though. What the FUCK else falls under British cuisine bros?!

While I won't deny this I simply can't ignore the other possibilities that British people may eat.

This, and I use the Two Fat Ladies recipe where it's got egg white souffle worked into it with whipped whites. I adore how it browns under the broiler.

My most adored brit dish is my annual strawberry and raspberry trifle with bird's custard and the sherry soaked cake layers. Boozy good.

Brits are just as good as other western europeans at the western european traditional signature dishes.
Food regionalism is a retarded meme. Spätzle and gnocchi and whatever the hungarian kind is called are all literally the same thing, for example.

Basically meat potatoes and veg, for the most part. However, we do them well. Obviously cottage and shepherds pie is always on here. The Sunday roast is the best example. It's not like as standalone dishes they're amazing, but if you do them right - i.e. put some care and attention into the gravy, it's bloody good. I haven't seen many countries get roast potatoes right. Homemade proper Yorkshires are fucking good. The veg we put with it is grown well, the soil is fertile, it can hack the harsh environment. I've travelled quite a bit due to my job, our bacon and sausages are the best. Our style of cheese is the best of its kind. We do good pickles, chutneys and crackers. Our cakes are good, our pastries not so much. Although the savoury pastries for pies is more and more decent. The fillings are top. Our curries are probably the best in the world. The range from Nepalese down to Sri Lankan. For the most part, we get the best North Atlantic white fish due to our proximity. Our langoustines are great. Our livestock is largely grass fed. There's much that is dogshit, however.

You go to a normal cafe, they'll give you sausages with basically sawdust in, it'll cost them 10p, they'll charge you £1.20 and they're pretty shit. A salad won't be much more than lettuce, tomato and grated carrot but will be over £3 on its own. Half the time a soup won't be homemade, it'll be microwaved out of a can. A burger will be a frozen one and not of any quality. Same with a pie. Gravy will be granules and not even made well. Basic sandwiches like ham and cheese or tuna and mayo will come on cotton wool bread and cost £5+. It started to change a few years ago, but that's what I was subjected to when I was younger. You don't mind eating dogshit but you don't want to be paying 1000% markup on it.

I think the 1300s has long since gone and it was a bit of myth about sawdust.

Do you honestly think that every other country (especially America) uses fresh ingredients??

I agree about the mark-up but that happens in every country throughout the world, it's not just Britain.

It's not to say that we don't don't crappy meals, we do but so does every other country.

If you take a step back and see things objectively . . .are we the best in the world . . .probably not.
Are we the worst . . .far from it.
The memes from WW2 will still persist but do I give a fuck . . .NO!

I think a lot of countries just hate Britain and find silly excuses to hate using 80 year old memes is just part of it.

No, but if I go to another place where it's slightly more expensive, the quality of sausage goes up loads. I'm not saying it's everywhere, I'm just saying that 'tough shit' should come at a lower price. It's a con job

Bong here, the redpill is that our cuisine got irreversibly fucked by a german incel 600 years ago. We used to be an empire that raped and pillaged the entire planet for spices, then Martin Luther convinced some idiots that plain unadulterated food is more godly and we've been failing to recover ever since.
