Archeologists make discovery about the early days of British cuisine

I was in the U.K. a year ago last May for three weeks. It's not true what they say about British cooking. You can get crappy food anywhere of course, but the meals I had in pubs and restaurants and people's homes, and the stuff we were able to prepare ourselves, was as good as anything I've had anywhere. Lots of good fresh ingredients were available everywhere, there were excellent farmers' markets near where we stayed, we ate well, never had a bad meal.
I haven't come across too many of them with that lean and hungry look! -

Read between the lines. What he called traditional British fare is the high fat, high salt, high carbohydrate, high cholesterol, badly prepared crappy food you can get anywhere, I just wanted to point out that there are other options, even in the U.K.
Particularly the part where you said "stuff we were able to prepare ourselves". Kind of says it all. Lol.
Oddly enough, we had fish and chips prepared at a friends house last night.
Came out of me like thunder less than an hour later.
My body is not accustomed to crappy fried foods.
Not really. He'll say something else that's pompous or silly, and we'll have all the ammo we need to continue.
Yes, it is. There's nothing to be proud of in Canadian food. It hardly sets the world on fire.
The last time I checked Scotland is in Britain. You should have listened more to your geography teacher at school, and so should those numbskulls who green-plussed you.
Considering you're a country which stole French and English and are run by a system of government which you copied off the clever British then you're in no position to talk.
Come back when you speak Canadian and when you are run by a system of government which you invented

British food: Tasty. And, just as importantly, normal and down-to-Earth.

British Wensleydale cheese. Britain has more cheeses than France.
North American spray on, imitation cheese. Cheese is something that Americans and Canadians just cannot do.

There's only one poll that counts here, and come voting day, I suspect that the Empire may be quite a bit smaller... Hell, we might have to rename the reference from the empire to 'The Burg'
British foods? Beans are from Afghanistan, peas are from India, potatoes from Peru and rice from Asia.Yes, it is. There's nothing to be proud of in Canadian food. It hardly sets the world on fire.
