1. fish and chips only one I ate, from Jack in the Box.

Honestly I don't know what the others are.

“Jizzy cobbler”

I think I’m gonna hurl.

WOT M8?

I watch UK MasterChef and only seen Fish & Chips, Scotch Egg and Bubble and Squeak cooked on the show.

Seems I'm hardly British at all.
Not heard of or sampled the majority of these which are mainly rural regional dishes, many of which have fallen into disuse. And many of them, especially the innuendo laden, are fictitious.

Bit of a mix according to that.

Fish'n'chips, toad in tha hole, scotch eggs, bubble'n'squeak. We've got one shop down the road that does wicked scotch eggs, put onto it by me pommie mates. I'll always rate pommie food, good tucker a lot of it. Pommie slang also, top tier.

On a related note, I DO want to try Yorkshire Pudding at some point while I'm still alive.

I have only tried 5 so it's complete nonsense. I'm as British as they come.

I can't help but think that Dick's Surprise and Jizzy Cobbler are served together.

As British will say: you are a Bloody Good Ol' Chap, Archie Mate! Buy you a lovely pint of Guinness? Cheers!

I learn to speak British watching Kingsman and MasterChef UK.

I'm zero percent British, except I have eaten corn.

However, I talk like I'm British, using their phrasing. Not the accent, just the way the words are put together. Americans have nothing on the Brits when it comes to the turn of a phrase.

Can't stand Guniness ..it's like 5W20 oil IMO ..and it's Irish

A lot of those I never even heard of ...and I think some are either VERY localized , or just made up

What is Britain's favorite higher selling beer, Archie? In USA it's Bud Light.

Apparently there is zero discerning taste for good beer in the US.

Just go with the next most popular ones on the list like,
Miller Lite.
Michelob Ultra.
Coors.
Corona.
Heineken.
Natural Light.
Busch.

Nevermind, just drink whiskey or go sober.

My favorite is Keystone Light. 2 for $1.75 at 7-eleven.

Ah, so you're old enough to drink then. Good to know!

You buy beer at the 7-eleven ? That’s not right.

Well that's dashed my theory then.

You guys aren't nearly so cynical as I am.

One can claim anything, after all.

He recently referenced remembering the start of Desert Storm 32 years ago......

Oh and when I drank my favorites were Corona or Dos Equis

Bruce Dickinson agrees with you. He took a shot at Budweiser Outdoor Stage in Toronto 27:35.

48:35 was my favorite song of the night. A bit of a Spinal Tap moment when Bruce's flamethrower was just spewing fuel haha.

When I drank it was Carlsberg. 1. because I liked it, and 2. I could tell if somebody stole my beer at parties. Everyone drank Molson Canadian or Labatt's Blue.

Just make sure you get the beef dripping nice and hot before you chuck the batter in. (Blimey, sounds a bit rude)

LOL! Thanks for the sage advice. I'm not a cook so I'm sure I'll be having Yorkshire Pudding at a restaurant.

Noooooo! It has to be home made!

And any left over is eaten cold the next day spread with jam!

Not where I live, and this is pretty funny, where I live is old, conservative, and white. Gun/Truck/Beard town for sure. And I can't count how many times I've got into conversations about various craft beers while buying beer here...

Yet it's also simultaneously old, conservative, white towns all over America that are responsible for something like Bud Light being the #1 seller in America - go figure...

California conservatives are just ahead of the rest of the country when it comes to beer lol!

What Northern witchery is this; t'ain't right and t'ain't natural!

You'll be telling me you have gravy on yer chips next.

I am old enough & British enough to prefer ales to lager style beer.
However, Carling is probably the UK's favourite beer depending upon how you measure it (by volume, by value, in retail or in the "on" trade).

BD-123 don't forget the cheese on the chips'n'gravy!

What sort of barbarian doesn't put gravy on their chips?

Aah memories, standing in a freezing cold warehouse for a mid winter car auction sometime in the 1970's, tray of chips and gravy in hand. Hoping to spend rather less than £100 on a car to last the next few months.

"It's grim up North"

Noooooo! It has to be home made!

Wait, left over Yorkies? Surely not such a thing. Like saying left over roasties. And you Northern weirdos putting gravy on your chips!!!! No. Stop it.

Yes, gravy AND cheese curds. (poutine)

Left-over roasties ( I always make too many) are upcycled into 'Bubble & Squeak' on Monday in this house!

Mmmmm . . . Bubble and Squeak.

Can't beat a good Bubble & Squeak with a couple of fried eggs on top

Hey, English food ain't so bad after all. It all seems quite appetizing.

Yup, it's improved since WW2

The naming conventions could use some work though. 😅

I was curious so I looked up "bubble & squeak". The Spanish definitely have their own version of this which they call a "tortilla" which is NOT to be confused with the Mexican food "tortilla".

It's an excellent way to use up left over veg, however in the past I've cooked various veg just so I can make B&S out of it the next day.

I prefer mine 'chunky'. That is I chop the veg into small pieces. My sister-in-law makes it more like a 'pattie' which is ok but my dad made it that way and that's what I do. He would have cold meat left over from the Sunday lunch with it. My dad was a wizard in the kitchen. I miss those Sunday lunches Great food and good company.

Some of it. They better keep their Chip Butty on the other side of the Atlantic though.

Bubbles and Squeak appear to be similar to Ratatouille: https://www.onceuponachef.com/recipes/ratatouille.html

Nowt wrong with a chip butty


Mmm, no.

Chip butties are magnificent, especially if battered orange chips. Do you get battered chips up North? Might be a game changer was to where I live

Battered you say? That just might work.

Country singer Trace Adkins describing the basics of Southern cooking:

"You dip the dead thing in the batter then you fry it."

You reminded me of a funny incident I had at a restaurant when I lived in Texas. Apparently this restaurant has a reputation for really good catfish and I asked the waitress if they offered it "blackened" style and she looked at me like I was some kind of alien and then told me that everyone she knows eats their catfish fried. LOL

Glorious.

i don't understand the concept of "Leftover" Yorkshire puds ????
