'Must be that healthy English diet.'

Yeah - us Brits eat our 'organ meat' whole, Americans insist it is mixed with lips, ears and a*seholes before being minced and made into burgers and hotdogs! :)

I think you got that backwards. Practically all of the Hamburgers in the US are 100% beef, at least 75% of the hotdogs are. Order a hamburger in the UK and you can get pork, soy, egg, bread crumbs, flour, and other assorted crapola. Unless it's specified as a "Beef Burger" get ready for a foul tasting suprise. China has better hamburgers than the UK, I know from extensive experience. ;).

Yanks are always knocking English food.

It ain't so bad. Besides, the Brits have many, many fine dining establishments in their towns large and small. It is also one good result of the EU that French and Italian dining styles are becoming the norm all over Europe.

Oh yeah, when you order dinner in a good restaurant in England, you actually get decent, human-sized portions. For some reason, American restaurant portions are huge beyond satiety... literally enough to feed two or three people! New Englanders, who used to be known for being 'lean and mean' are still mean enough, but now every small town has a sizable cadre of bizarre gigundos that approximate baby elephants in size and shape, although the elephants dress better.

Saddest of all: the now-very-common 250-pound, 12-year olds.
