I don’t like foreigners. It doesn’t matter if they’re from China or from the UK they are all wierdos. Although Chinese, Italian food are awesome.

You are NOT what you eat. For a prime example consider:

• Cows eat grass and are fat.
• Wolves eat cows and are lean.

So true So true. I spent some time in the UK and lost several pounds. I will take up for the McVities Digestive Biscuits though as they are pretty darn good, especialy the ones with dark chocolate covering. Not Bad!

They’re mysterious, grey and sort of rubbery?

Leftists are weirdos. But, occasionally, leftist bastions somehow manage to produce decent food. Take California Asian-Mexican fusion for example.

Stay away from the tourist traps, the ubiquitous curries and the canned food, and you can find good, plain food in the English countryside.

Cream teas, with clotted cream and strawberry jam. Fish and chips (skate and wedges of roasted potato). Fresh fish, lamb, and rabbit. Excellent cheese and real ale.

Lots of bitter.

Lots of ‘Indian curry varieties’. Preferably a ‘vindaloo’....washed down with lots of....bitter (tho I like Tikka Masala with nan bread the size of a mattress). If not...poppadoms will do, nicely.

Gawd....I miss England, sometimes. :)

That’s where I stopped reading, afraid I was going to throw a clot. Who would eat a fish called a “bloater”? That’s how you describe a fish that has died from a yeast infection. One bite, and your knees will most certainly be “buckling.”

Funniest post of the month. Thanks for sharing.

Oooooooo, I love those ‘digestive biscuits’!!!! McVitties were the BEST....especially with the ones with half of them chocolate.

You've got a great tagline in there...

Oi've got hot jellied eels....not the crawly ones served up from the street urchins.

I'm looking around for some of these in the U.S. as gag gifts for a hunting buddy of mine:
