            Hey, the Golden Globes is in January and the Oscars are in March, and I really, really want to be a winner instead of a nominee this year, can you blame me?

      As a Latino, the first time trying sweet beans in a pastry was so alarming. I still don’t like them, it’s so weird. Now sweet, fried plantains with a side of refried beans and avocado? Yes please!

          It’s all about the way you were raised. I’m just not used to adding sweet directly into the bean paste.

          It’s like British beans and Mexican beans, both are beans but their taste and prep is like night and day

    People shit on British food and come over here and make out its the best thing ever.

    I couldn’t convince my girlfriend to try my pie with veggies and fat chips all covered in gravy. Then she ate it and said “actually that’s really nice”.

    Like of course its a pie covered in gravy!

      I think it’s more of a meme than real at this point. Most of the time when I see “British food”, I think it looks pretty good, even if it’s not flashy.

      And traditional dishes like corned beef and cabbage. I love me some corned beef with lots of mustard. And cabbage, you can eat it by the head and it has so few calories plus it has lots of vit c and fiber. It is excellent diet food.

      There is great english food. It’s just that your average brit ain’t making it either. Ive been to Bournemouth on a school language program several times and we had amazing Yorkshire Pudding and more good stuff once. But we also had Microwaved raw Broccoli with soggy disgusting Pizza another time.

      Also: You guys have an unhealthy obsession with vinegar.

        Vinegar is better than salt or fat.

        Vinegar is fucking awesome. Can’t have chips without it. Its just wrong.

          Right, because Fish&Chips doesnt contain any of that Salt and fat.^/s

          Truth be told, every nation has their food quirks. It’s just that from my german pov all your vinegar chips are disgusting. Chips and Crisps need Salt amd probably also paprika to be perfect. But that’s decidedly german.

    I just had baked beans on toast with eggs today. Made them myself with onions, mushrooms, garlic, smoked paprika powder, a pinch of nutmeg and cinnamon and a shot of maple syrup. It tasted great and I am not even English.

    Off topic, but yesterday I tried a tamale for the first time. Apparently they’re a common Christmas food in Mexico, so my boss brought some to our party. The first bite or two were strange (as a very picky US-American), but then it was really good! 10/10 would recommend and all that

    Having lived in the UK and near the US southern border, they’re both great. Charro and frijoles are sublime, and Heinz baked beans are a superb side dish for potato or meat.

    I still can’t enjoy sweet BBQ beans though, Bush’s just tastes like corn syrup with fiber blobs 🤮
