Fuming to see yourself in trash tier?

>>15709451
lmao ya you tell that stupid kipper

>>15709445
Why is British food so shit bros

>>15709445
Black pudding is fucking awesome, what the hell is that ranking. Kippers are good too.
t. American

>>15709445
why is black pudding at the bottom but a full english bfast at the top?

>>15709445

How can meat taste terrible

>>15709445
British "cuisine"

>>15709597
by boiling it in a lamb's stomach.

Someone on the internet said that English cooking was a lot better pre-WW1 and WW2 but that it bottlenecked and now all that's left is shit

How true is that?

>liver and onions that low

>>15709606
Half of their cuisine is literal wartime shit.
In Germany many old people eat similar vile stuff, the Brits just never stopped eating like poor people.

>>15709581
I thought this too.

>>15709606
It's not like we somehow lost ingredients or dishes because of a couple of wars. It's true that general interest in cooking dropped significantly after generations were raised on bland rations and then entered the world of convenient canned mass produced food.

But your typical normie is a shit cook anywhere anyway.

The truth is today the middle class British eat far better quality food than in America or Europe.
You may not like it but it’s a fact.

>>15709645
Lmao, that's why 90 thousand people die from your shit food every year huh?
That's why being fat is actually a pandemic problem in your nation eh?

>>15709645
The truth is today the middle class British eat far better quality food than in America or Europe.
You may not like it but it’s a fact.

>>15709445
>bacon sandwich

>>15709445
Looks hearty and comfy

>>15709445
haha faggots

>>15709589
Retard

>>15709672
I’m just a neutral observer.
The food I had there was really good.

>>15709645
This is definitely true compared to mutts, quite a few European countries are healthier than us though. America definitely has a problem with shit quality food in general though - normal food in UK/EU is seen as fancy expensive organic food to amerisharts

>>15709707
A bit disingenuous as the US doesn’t have a comparable class system. Just workers and elites. Europe is definitely more complex due to EU regulations.

>>15709707
Toxic consumerism and corporate cronyism seldom lead to high standards.

>>15709730
What I mean is the quality of standard food products for the average consumer is much lower in US vs UK/EU, I'm talking things like cheeses, breads but also raw foodstuff e.g. meat and veg. America is a relatively new country with less culture and historic/traditional farming and production methods and has lower food standards and less regulations, and a huge mass-production/consumer culture. End result is shittier food quality on average

>>15709736
exactly

>>15709445
Scotch eggs, beef wellington and blood pudding too low.
>chicken tikka masala

>>15709757
>chicken tikka masala
look it up

>>15709684
No shit?
Are you a little confused as to what middle class means?

>>15709768
You have shitty reading comprehension

how is yorkshire pud god tier and toad in the hole is mid? its the same shit with sausage, if anything it should be reversed,

>>15709645
you can almost poison people in america and call it food. look at chlorinated chicken. the fuck.

>>15709764
>tikka
>masala
Quintessentially British words oi mate?

>>15709606
It goes back further than that. The industrial revolution indirectly ruined mainstream at-home cooking in significant parts of europe.

>>15709757
>>15709801
Chicken Tikka Masala is British. Invented in Britain.

>>15709801
It originated in Britain

>>15709451

>>15709801
It's like Döner Kebab in Germany, prepared only by Turkish in turkish restaurants but it's still got invented there and is technically a German speciality

>>15709801
>Quintessentially British words
They are now.

>what are loan words?

>>15709801
Guess what, Chop Suey isn’t Chinese either.

>>15709780
Middle class isn't a concept that exists outside the UK in the same way so it's not a valid comparison

>>15709906
>Middle class isn't a concept that exists outside the UK in the same way so it's not a valid comparison
Average consumer then, it's just semantics (and I disagree that it's a concept that only exists in UK)

>>15709445
>Ploughman's lunch
Its what i eat after ploughing ur mum

>>15709801
>hamburger

>>15709445
>chicken tikka masala

>>15709451

>>15709926
Middle class absolutely 1000% doesn't mean "average consumer" lmfao

>>15709589
You understand that that dish was invented by British officers in order to use the spices in India to make food that was more palatable for their troops... Right?

>its ANOTHER Amerimutt seetheout

Everything here is fine except for:
1.Toad in the hole, black pudding, scotch eggs and chicken tikka should be in god tier.
2. Yet fucking again i am reminded of why the scots having their independance and fucking off is a good thing, HAGGIS IS A FUCKING SCOTTISH SHITDISH, AND BECAUSE ITS PART OF BRITAIN IT GETS LUMPED INTO ENGLISH CUISINE, FUCK SCOTS, FUCK SCOTLAND AND FUCK HAGGIS.

>>15710046
I’m not American

>>15709445
So shepherd's pie is just a mirrored cottage pie huh?

>>15710053

The graphic says "British" food you git.

>>15710063
All ESLs are basically American

>>15709445
>The food of this nation is not very good.

>>15710078
THATS MY POINT YOU FUCKING BUGGER, THE SCOTTISH TWATS MAKE OUR CUISINE LOOK EVEN WORSE THAN IT ALREADY IS, EU CAN BLOODY TAKE THEM.

>>15710082
What?

>>15710039
no it wasnt you delusional nigger a paki chef made it in Glasgow
faggot

>>15709445
>fried bland fish with shitty fries
>literally just toast and bacon
>god tier

I feel bad for bongs.

Jellied eels go great with chocolate ice cream. I got some once as part of a white elephant gag gift and googled how to eat them.
Apparently Elvis loved jellied eels and chocolate ice cream.

>>15710072
Cottage pie is beef. Shepherds pie is lamb

>>15710034
Maybe not in the United Absolute State of America

>>15709445
tiers look backwards to me

>>15709445
>black pudding at the bottom
This was made by an absolute faggot

>>15710115
>Jellied eels go great with chocolate ice cream.
No they don't do be fucking weird
I'm pretty adventurous with food and have tried jellied eels a couple times, they're just bland really like mackerel but with gelatine like you get surrounding a pork pie but way more. Not the kind of thing you want to eat a whole meal of, and definitely not something you'd mix with fucking chocolate ice cream

>>15710119
It came from Reddit.
What did you expect?

>>15710119
It was made from a survey of average idiots and they just chose the things they eat the most of

>>15710039
It was made by a paki in Glasgow.

>>15709445
Where the fuck is the chicken tikka masala that every pom orgasms over? They eat it at least 4 times a week over there. And I don't see fish and chips soaked in curry sauce either.

This is a shit food list.

>>15710193
It's literally on there, the absolute state of mutt education and reading comprehension
Insecure much?

>>15709445
Genuinely though what sort of wrongun came up with jellied eels? Why not at least grill the fuckers if you have to eat them?

>>15710151
I tried it and it was good. I dont give a fuck what you say

>>15710247
Like a lot of traditional food it originated as a way to preserve food before refrigeration became widespread. Same as blue cheese, cured meats, surstromming is the extreme example

>>15710258
>Yet responds indignantly proclaiming he doesn't give a fuck
It's weird and embarrassing that you like jellied eels and ice cream and cringe that you attempt to normalise it. Do you just stir pudding and ice cream into all your savoury meals to make some kind of disgusting sweet/savoury mush?

>>15709606
>>15709817
Pre-industrial cooking generally took half or more of the day including prep and cleanup, was massively imprecise and regionally dependent, and was passed down person to person as tribal knowledge. This isn't unique to Britain or Europe, it was the case all over the world including in the early US.
It's easy to get nostalgic for the "diversity" of it but that diversity depended on being a traveler, much of it was gross only technically edible poverty food, and the only reason it was diverse was because people didn't or couldn't read well and didn't bother with cookbooks because women all learned to cook from their mothers unless they were rich enough to have a cook, which would usually be separate from a maid because cooking took so damn long.

Also the reason the food was so diverse was because most people didn't travel much or at all, so the gastronomic dream of tasting Britain's pre-war variety of food involves being rich, enough of a fop to have nothing tying you down so you can just tour around the islands as you please, and likely a certain degree of indigestion and food poisoning.
I guess you could also get a good sample as a wide-ranging peddler or an accomplished enough bard to travel rather than relying on the regular crowd, though.

>>15710260
Makes sense I guess, was there a salt shortage in Britain or something at the time?

>>15710329
salt used to be expensive

>black pudding shit tier
>full English, which includes it, is God tier

>>15710346
Someone was probably pretty smug about finding a cheap way to preserve what at the time was probably an equally cheap and locally caught source of protein

>>15710279
Why are you having severe anal pain over a weird food combination some anon likes?

>>15709597
because you can't cook for shit, cook it properly and it's great

>>15710359
Because that anon said:
>Jellied eels go great with chocolate ice cream.
When they should have said
>I like jellied eels with chocolate ice cream because I'm fucking mental

>>15709445
wheres the vegetables? the peppers :V ? the onions

>>15710329
>was there a salt shortage in Britain or something at the time?
Didn't necessarily need to be, salted fish and meats are also ubiquitous dishes, jellied eels are just another preservation method - doesn't mean it could only have happened in the absence of abundant salt

>>15709445
Bri’ish?!

how do only 50-59% of people like beef wellington or scotch egg?

>>15710514
see
>>15710187

>>15709445
I'm not a wh*toid but most of that looks pretty good. I bet british grandmas make a lot of tasty food

What is it with Britoids stuffing everything into a pie or roll?

>>15710476
>Only my taste is normal
You're definitely fat. Post body

>>15710279
Listen to me you fucking mong, i ended up with jellied eels as they were part of a white elephant gag gift, i googled how to eat them and it said babe ruth (not elvis) ate them w/ chocolate ice cream. I had both so i tried it and it wasnt bad.
No one gives a shit about your fussy eating habits or how normal you are

>>15709488
Seriously who the hell dislikes black pudding

>>15709445
>ingerland calls all their own shit british and never mentions NI, Wales or Scotland
>gets upset and confused when Scotland plans to leave union

>>15709445
Don't you talk shit about faggots. They are tasty as fuck, especially with some toast.

>>15710559

?????

>>15710557
I think all blood based sausages are utter shit and only massive faggots and old people that ate them during WW2 like them.

>>15710559
retard

>>15710039
Whatever you say pajeet

>>15710234
Where on the list. Do you really need the most basic nuances of your language explained to you? Now fuck off and go stuff yourself with your paki bastardised Brittttish cooking. before I remind you of all the rotted turkey "crowns" you ate last christmas.

>>15709445
A lot of the foods I like/eat are related to the ones on this chart in some way.

>plougman's lunch

breakfast sausage? spam? corned beef hash?

Anything missing I either don't know what it is or I couldn't think of an analogy.

>>15710644
'the fuck are you on, m8

>>15710644
woo lad that's a lot of pent up rage and insecurity you got there

>>15709445
Other than jellied eels it all looks fine- then again, a lot of things on there are copied from American food (Not that there's anything wrong with that)

>>15709445
why the fuck are you putting beef wellington in lowtier? Are you some sort of fucking retard?

>>15710666
>english muffin (better than crumpets)
objectively wrong

>>15710666
>>black pudding
>breakfast sausage? spam? corned beef hash?
Not really comparable, black pudding is pretty unique in flavour and texture
Also nice trips satan

>>15710092
If he was in Glasgow that makes him a Scottish chef, not a paki chef.

>>15710696
>a lot of things on there are copied from American food
Usually I'd call this obvious bait but with the absolute state of amerisharts you never really know

>kippers, black pud and haggis in the bottom tier
Shit image.

Black pud is top tier but haggis is pretty bland and kippers are meh imo
