Why I don't trust British food

[nikimcbee]

I went to the store last night to get some halloween candy, when I passed throught the "international" food section, where they have "British" cuisine.:dead:

Then I saw this:
http://www.geekwithlaptop.com/images/pod/spotted-dick.jpg

What in the smurf is this? Sure enough, it was manufactured in England (fortunately it was NOT Newcastle, or I'd really be worried:O:)

Now, I could see Australia eating this, as they are a penal colony, maybe Scotland.

So.....
Do you need to be 21 to buy this?

Do geordies eat this?

When you go to the store and you can't find any "spotted dick", do you ask for it? "Hey mate I'm looking for some spotted dick."

Is there a female version of this, say "speckled....:oops:"


Now, if you eat this pudding and some here says "oops, I dropped me sausage."

I'm going to run for my life.

Hmm. After reading a couple of descriptions of what it really is, I'm not sure it's something I'd want to try anyway.

As for the sponge pudding thing, it's basically of a fruit cake kind of consistency, the pudding comes from the shape of it I think, like an upturned bowl shape.

Where in Mississippi do they sell this?

I think it's pretty big in Pennsylvania. Which means it was probably some sausage eating German immigrant which brought this idea of making blocks of pig mush into the U.S. I've see people eat this stuff, it is NOT for the faint of heart.

Ha! We had the "bacon" discussion at breakfast break (at work) today.:har:

Bacon flavo(u)red soy does not count.

I was in the store like 2 days ago and saw a small jar of a powdered substance, claiming to be bacon seasoning. (not bacon bits mind you)

The slogan on the bottle was "bacon tastes good on everything"

Mmmmm Bacon Ice Cream....

I know some people that put bacon seasoning on thier Bacon!

[JU_88]

Tikka is a mild form of indian Curry, we Brits think its a proper indian dish, but in fact, most in India dont know what the hell a Tikka is, because it was invented by indian immigrants for the british who found most of the traditional curries too spicy (at the time of introduction around the 50s and 60s, we are more acustomed to it now)
That and most of India's population are not big meat eaters, partly out of relegious principles and poverty in some parts, but also because their veggie dishes are a damn sight tastier than most.

*image of pure evil and lair of the soulless beans*


How very dare you good sir! Little chef is not British cuisine. Little Chef is a theatre of despair and torment. Anything that pleads to be eaten to be put out of it's misery cannot be called "cuisine". I have felt it's icy soul eating touch on many a long journey, and many a time has the princess of the congealed bean kingdom called out to me. I have stood my ground though and only had the small brown cups of mud, otherwise known as coffee. Oh and once I ate a lasagne that didn't agree with me, it said many anti Semitic things and wanted to legalise paedophilia.
It didn't even moan about the prices, or even the local bus service. How can this filth be British if it doesn't even pass the simple test of being British?
And I do say, you have been thoroughly reprimanded good sir, good day to you!
