Those appear to be Canadian Smarties. As an American I wash my hands of this whole affair, good day sir.

[–] [email protected] 38 points 1 month ago (1 children)

And the chicken isn't even fried. What a joke.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

No it's okay - they got that rotisserie from the gas station.

Once they cross the border, they're Minnesotan, it's okay

Where can you buy Canadian Smarties in Minnesota? And do they sell all dressed chips too? Because I have no idea and I want some all dressed chips, lol.

The right half looks like something the Dutch would eat.

wdym "would?"that's literally breakfast.

I thought it was only on toast, not pizza.

I mean, yeah, but that's so much better. Sure, our food sucks, but it sucks in such an elevated way that it's almost an art form. British food seems like it was made by a guy desperately trying to put together a meal from ingredients he bought at a gas station. American cuisine seems like it was made by a chef who is losing his sanity to Lovecraftian horrors beyond our comprehension. The world looks at beans and toast and laughs at how pathetic it is.They look upon the Cool Ranch Doritos Locos Taco and weep, for they now know there is no God.

OP’s pic is just the British way of saying “our national pastime is watching dry paint dry, and we’re most pleased to say that we’re rather proud of that fact!”

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 month ago

To be fair, I think their actual national pastime is Cricket, which is significantly more boring.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago (4 children)

People who laugh at beans on toast haven’t tried beans on toast. At least not with English baked beans.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Eh. I've had it, and it was fine. I've had the meat heavy full breakfast version too, and it was fine.

Certainly nothing I miss after leaving, nor something to avoid while there.

5/10, bland but sufficient.

I've never had them, so I can't comment on their taste, but aesthetically, it looks like a dish you'd be served in a Soviet prison.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

There are several dozen YouTube videos of exactly this and it almost never goes over well. I’ve seen like two non British try been a and toast and go “that’s not as bad as I expected”. None of them praised it or would seek it out, it just didn’t immediately make them hurl.

Isn't this a Brazilian thing? There are million things to pick from that would actually be American and arguably some things more disgusting than this

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Isn’t this a Brazilian thing?

Everything is American once we get our grubby little hands on it.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Once we perfect it, you mean.

No dish is complete without refined corn products.

You all nag about how Americans have no food culture of their own, that they just steal and adapt other countries' foods. Then when you see true American creation and innovation, you reel back in fear and disgusting. Cowards!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

It’s the British we’re talking about. Anything other than fish and chips, mushy peas, or bubble and squeak is a bit too aggressive for their traditionally unrefined tastes. The poor sods basically had to be forcefully introduced to anything other than boring.

Bitch nobody puts bone-in on a pizza.

Even if we ate this we still have room to talk about beans on toast.

Chocolate on pizza is a south american thing, I've never seen it in the US.

Take yer chip butty and go back to believing whatever your instagram feeds tell you, consoled by the fact that yer mushy peas and jellied eel are are the pinnacle of civiliz(s)ed cuisine.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago

we most certainly will not

Rebuttal: jellied eels.

The metric system is a tool of the devil! My car gets 40 rods to the hogshead and that's the way I likes it.

I used to shit on British food until I discovered marmite. No offense to the British but the Australians do it better. Y'all are a close second though.

I see no problem with this pizza.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

Save the grape for me.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

I can't stand all they stuff they add on top of the chicken bones. Such a hard time picking it all up before I start crunching on some ribs.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

The unfried crust and/or lack of a cheese like petroleum derivative ring in the periphery is unamerican

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

As long as it's stuffed crust.

I would like to clarify:

There is no piss inside beans/toast that needs to be extracted.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Is the piss just on top then?

Yeah; because this isn't bland. It's extra AF.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (9 children)

If your beans and toast are bland that's a you issue. Learn to spice beans or but better beans, I kinda imagine you slapping plain boiled lima beans on a slab of dry rye and wondering what the hype is about.

Listen. If you separate the dessert side, and debone and shred that chicken, I would 100% try the bite with the grape on it.
