/ck/ - Food & Cooking

How come American's were able to upgrade and reinvent every food item they got their hands on, when no such culinary advancements took place back in England?

You will never be an Italian.

Thats the list:
Italian
France
Rest of the world.

What does /ck/ think about Australian cuisine?

>>16490058
We don't.

>>16490058
All I know of Australian cuisine is that you guys buy your sausages at the hardware store, and that your favorite snack, Arnott's Shapes, changed their recipe just to dab on you fuckers, and you hate it but still choke them down because its tradition.

Reminder that one time someone here on /ck/ submitted a toast sandwich like this to the cooking competition and all the cu/ck/s fawned over it like a bunch of Reddit faggots and votes it the best dish of the week.

>be in london
>hmmm let me try some nice uk cuisine
>buy a sandwich for 8 euros
>tastes like a fucking sandwich
>ok ummmmmmm
>go to pub
>order some livers
>beer is ok
>pay about 15 euros wtf, liver was appetizer
>go to kebab shop
>kebab isn't bad

i hear the meat pies are good but i didn't get to try any

>>16489987
actually a toast sandwich isn't that bad

>>16489987
jfc, I feel like choking just imagining how fucking dry that is

>>16490619
Maybe fix your saliva glands.

>>16489987
is that more bread in the middle? or some sort of meat that I can't recognize?

>>16490058
meat pies are nice
though i'm not 100% sure whether its british or australian

>>16490001
TFW you will never taste jellied eel
Why even live?

>>16490068
they fuckin well changed the Shapes formula back
Also, consider how many snags have been cooked on those ancient barbecues at Bunnings, you have the accumulated flavor of gorillians of snags and onions imbued into every sausage you get

>>16490696
It's toast

>>16490058
It's slowly emerging as a strange intersection of food, somewhat like Filipino in the unexpected combinations. Most expect Australian cuisine to eventually be an East-meets-West fusion (get fucked Neil Perry), but having worked in a number of respected restaurants within Australia I'm of the mind the really good shit we have going on is closer to an old-meets-new fusion. That absolutely ace chefs in Australia are playing around with old dishes made with new techniques or compositions, or vice-versa

> eating in London

The prices are so hilariously inflated, you can get nice british food elsewhere cheaper in the country.

>American's were able to upgrade and reinvent every food item they got their hands on

Supersizing or slathering it in batter/butter and sticking it into a deep fryer is not 'upgrading' anything.

>London
>paying in euros

Nice make believe story, fatty.

>>16490822
It unironically is an upgrade. Even the poorfags in America can get fat.

Here we have it straight from McD's mouth: beeing fat is a good thing

>>16490872
While I hate fat people like everyone else, hear me out here,
In the USA, food is so cheap and widely available to the point where almost anyone can get fat. Nearly all of us are fed, if not overfed. Historically speaking, this would mean the nation is rich as fuck, in it's golden age.
People can afford an overabundance of food & drink? Check.
People have all the commodities they could ask for, with all sorts of options? Check.
The country has a strong military presence? Check.
The entire world is concerned about our politics and everything out government does? Check.

Your typical US citizen is fat because our country can afford for us to be. While I won't say we've beaten you, I at least hope I made a point here. We're all so well fed and taken care of that we don't care.

>>16490888
I have to admit you made a good point. but stll I wouldn't use obesity as country wealth indicator. as I read there is a high rate of obesity in Mexico too and I think we both agree that they are not doing very good

>>16490945
mexicans are just fat

>>16490826
>bongs calling literally anyone fat
Cam on ingerland, lose sum facking stones.

>>16490832
Getting fat is not indicative of eating good food

>>16490577
nice texture

>>16490979
No, but people aren't starving en masse and having to resort to cannibalism.
