We visited England in April.

I was curious to see what was on TV. The very first thing I saw on British television was a commercial for KFC.

Then, there were the MacDonalds, Burger King ads.

After that, I watched Scooby Doo.

It was pretty embarassing. I told anyone who would listen that they're NOT getting the true picture of American cuisine.

After all, we have the world's best pizza right here in the NY Metro area!

(I'm waiting for Chicago to check in...)

I dare say only the very shallow sees fast food as "real American cuisine". We usually don't get that over here. Real American cuisine is roast beef and potatoes...wait, we have the same. OK, it's apple pie...wait, we have that too. It's steak and fries...wait, we have steak and chips. All in all, while there are variations in preparation, basic American cuisine and English cuisine are the same.

Chicago deep dish pizza at Uno's or Due's is killer pizza. Never had a NY pizza myself but saw a special on the Travel Channel about a competition between the two. Don't know about thin crust...?
