English breakfast is the farking best!

strangeguitar: English breakfast is the farking best!

At this place you get it in ice-cream form.

But British food is the reason we have British beer.

That, and at least the limeys have grasped the concept of a good curry.

strangeguitar: English breakfast is the farking best!

That's like a weak, entirely pussified version of a proper breakfast.

I'm not sure how someone managed to make a fried egg look emasculated, but, well, there's the photographic evidence.

With a side order of snail porridge.

English breakfast is the farking best!

Where's the baked beans?

strangeguitar: English breakfast is the farking best!

What the fark are those black things?!

Nope. Sorry, Britain, but your food sucks. Everyone knows it. Time to move on. Focus on your strengths. Chin up. Cheerio. All that rot.

Fabric_Man: What the fark are those black things?!

It's usually black pudding (new window). And a good English breakfast will also include mushrooms, and enough grease to give you a daily heart attack.

It's because of the donkeys! Donkeys work here!

/Winter Vomiting Disease. Gotta love the Brits. LOL.

Them black things would be Blood Pudding. Definitely not something pussified folks could handle.
(Great grilled with sliced apples, btw)

The English food hate on Fark has always amused me, especially with the majority of the hatred coming from the country that invented chocolate chip pancake wrapped sausage on a stick and fake cheese in an aerosol can.

Come back and whine about our food when you invent something on a par with the Yorkshire Pudding!

Plus, I've got all my own teeth, all seven of them. Ha! Myth busted!

I submitted this along with examples of items from their tasting menu (REAL ITEMS FROM THE MENU):

"snail porridge"
"foie gras benzaldehyde"

Also, this restaurant has been ranked in the top 2 in the world for the last 5 years by restaurants magazine. The chef, Heston Blumenthal has a show on the BBC called "In Search of Perfection"

English breakfast is good, but turkish delight leaves better memories.

id49606: strangeguitar: English breakfast is the farking best!

English breakfast is good, but turkish delight leaves better no memories whatsoever.

I just looked up what Black Pudding is.

My Gods, don't you Brits EVER make fun of the French for eating frog's legs again! Jesus.

I submitted it with a better headline too.
/came to whine and watch everyone slag british food

*sigh*
Another one of these threads?

I love to poke at you Brits myself, but it's a form of affection with us yanks. Hell, you people invented IPAs! Our closest similar achievement was Tang, so you're still ahead of the game by quite a bit.

/doesn't mean I have to like your food, though.
//and what's up with blood pudding, mate? kee-ryst!

warwick_hunt: ... that invented chocolate chip pancake wrapped sausage on a stick and fake cheese in an aerosol can.

/oh god that sounds soooo good....brb

FTFA "which has three Michelin stars" ?!?
Thars the problem. The tire guy telling them what food is good.

/mmmm chocolate chip pancake wrapped sausage on a stick
//god I'm hungry now

NeuroticRocker: Heaven is place where the police are British

Thanks, I've been looking for that joke for a while, couldn't remember how it went.

TheShavingofOccam123: It's because of the donkeys! Donkeys work here!

I laughed

Oh, and one more thing : English breakfast sausages are EVIL NASTY HORRID GLOBS OF THINGS BEST UNTOUCHED BY MAN BEAST OR GOD.

Thank you, and good night.

I have the book 'Further Adventures In Search Of Perfection'. Now I'm a major chilli head but damned if this guy isn't the dictionary definition of perseverance. Puts bourbon through a machine to break it down chemically to analyse the smell/flavour sensation... all to work out which whiskey notes he wants in his chilli. And that's the thin end of the wedge. Amazing read.

I, too, smile at the English food hatred from Americans, a country that thinks you find Michelin stars on the side of muscle car tyres.

is not amused

Holy shiznatch, seriously? I am in awe.

I deeply respect anyone who takes pleasure seriously.

Ugh, that stuff's made out of blood! No one told me, I won't be eating that again!

Came hoping for a Ratatouille reference...

/sad

warwick_hunt: fake cheese in an aerosol can.

You mean the greatest invention in the history of mankind?

Yorkshire Pudding is good, I'll grant, Oh, and I *absolutely love* the English style pot roast. Beef heaven.

A lot of British cuisine seems centred around making sure absolutely no fat accidentally escapes uneaten.

Fruvous: Oh, and one more thing : English breakfast sausages are EVIL NASTY HORRID GLOBS OF THINGS BEST UNTOUCHED BY MAN BEAST OR GOD.

Hey, King of Spain - that doesn't mean they're not delicious.

Until you posted your comment, I was unaware that eggs are male or are supposed to appear somehow masculine.

/The more you know*****

Sorry, Rhalien, I posted one but forgot the "no links rule".

Obviously, the problem is that rat who's the new head chef.

/yes I'm an animation geek, wanna make something of it?
//fair warning, my crew includes Mufasa, Jaffar, and Nicodemus

Pardon me.

DangerousDaze: I, too, smile at the English food hatred from Americans, a country that thinks you find Michelin stars on the side of muscle car tyres.

Some Americans find their freshly-killed meats on the side of tires...er, tyers...er, tyres.

/Road kill BBQ FTW!

Is Bob Hope writing the headlines now?

warwick_hunt: Ugh, that stuff's made out of blood! No one told me, I won't be eating that again!

It's not like you don't ingest a portion of blood with every rare steak. I saw a Vietnamese farmer slit a pig's throat and drink the blood as it collected warm from the still living pig... now that is farked up.

I remember Blumenthal when he tried to create the perfect fish and chips on his in search of perfection, he ended up with dover sole in tempura batter??????? It looked pretty far from perfect. Amateur!

/Haddock and chips, cooked in beef fat, served on page 3 of the Sun
//Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Well lake_huron (aren't you the smallest of the Great Lakes?), I suppose you're right. I did not actually say they tasted bad. I said they were EVIL NASTY HORRID GLOBS OF THINGS BEST UNTOUCHED BY MAN BEAST OR GOD, which on first blush might sound like it implies bad tasting, but really, I love Taco Bell food, and it's.... various forms of unnatural goop slopped all over each other with thing layers of wheat-paper in between...so....

But for the record, yes, British breakfast sausages do not taste good. They taste, in fact, like something they make you eat for all eternity in a hell run by PETA vegans.

I was joking, I love black pudding and know exactly where it comes from.

No better hangover cure than a bacon bun (proper back bacon, not streaky), a huge slab of black puddin' (mmmmmmm, blood clot) and a generous dollop of that other misunderstood british delicacy HP sauce.

Some British expats opened up a chip shop JUST down the road from me a few years ago.. named Brit's Fish and Chips.

They brought the fryer over from the UK..

I swear to Buddah it's the best fish and chips I've ever had in my life.

/side of mushy peas please
//oh and a pint of boddingtons
///can't forget the fried mars bar for dessert!

:D

Oh ye powers, you had to go and remind me what the British do to their vegetables, Obnox. The horror.... the horror....

You know, British cuisine truly is horrible. I hadn't realized it until this thread. My gods.

/half French and weeping

Ah, mushy peas! Those I like. Points for the Brits!

Quick, name some more decent British food so I can console my French blood, or at least lessen the sobbing.

HP is misunderstood?

It's like.. the tastiest condiment known to man, man.
