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

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.

In the British Armed Forces a pudding is sometimes called a "Baby's Head" and in certain areas of North West England primarily around Wigan and Leigh, Lancashire a "Babby's Yead" (Baby's Head).

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

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
