I put a bit of dripping in a pan, use that to fry my bacon or sausages and then
drop a slice of bread or toast into the pan before it gets cold.

Perfect!

Oh now I get it, black pudding. We have something similar here, it's called mustamakkara. Very good with lingonberry sauce.

I think the British approach to food is kind of similar to that of the Chinese. Waste nothing. :)

I remember the good old ZX Spectrum you had to sit there while the tape made this ear busting beeping and squealing and when it finished you played a game that looked like a kids painting.
Dam those were the days
See im not angry at all.:O:

Since about 1888 does anyone really care what the Brits think? They are another country which lives under the umbrella of American largess. Mr. Obama is taking it all away. Perhaps it is about time Britain and other nations in that part of the world protect their own tax income. Islam and others are coming. You aren't ready.

Isn’t the world such a friendly place
Who needs to get angry :03:

...and your point is?

We still eat Black pudding because it is a nessecary for the lancastrian marshal art eckythump.

Now I know why we lost the Battle of Britain. Our pilots were simply to scared of the food there to really want to win it push an invasion and have to live there for some time.:o

Yeah, I guess they had enough after they took France...

haw haw haw! @ some of the last page comments :haha:

Re the chinese: at least in the UK if you order a pizza with 'chicken' as a topping, you don't get a delivery with whole chickens feet gripping the pizza dough :eek:

Although, as you see from my post above, there is a lot I hate about British food, there is no doubt that a lot has changed over recent years:

I suppose, that as I attacked certain British dishes above, it is only fair to list a few classics from the UK that everyone should try if they get a chance:

Fish & chips
Cullen Skink
Bread & butter pudding
Lancashire hot pot

Ah music to my ears :up:

Not forgetting the most popular dish in the UK these days

You forgot the Cornish Pasty! Yum.

I remember the pies, they were pretty good. Although the ones I had were ready-made and probably pretty terrible in comparison to the home-made ones.

Fish pie (the hairless variety) is also well liked/a very popular dish in the UK :up:

Hmmm black pudding....Every Friday at work I have a black pudding and egg roll...

Hmm how people can't love balck pudding is beyond me....haggis is pretty good too...

Give me a good British home cooked steak pie with fresh new potatoes and veggies over any of the poncy french sauce laden food. Though I think maybe that is unfair as I understand that traditional French country cooking isn't so far removed from our own and only in Paris did they come up with these huge white plates with a couple of grean beans swimming on a sauce and it's caled haute cuisine?

In defence of the French, they too have moved towards simple food cooked well and away from the silly sauces. I was in Paris for the weekend a fortnight ago and the food was both simple and superb.

Yep....sometimes something as simple as frogs and snails :DL
