The British are REALLY into their hilariously crap food, aren't they? Someone on here was actually defending a sandwich that was two slices of bread, an inch of cheese and an inch of raw onion. It's like, when the French or Italians get uppity about their cuisine, it feels like they have a point? The British though...
The chip butty (with chippy chips) is the closest a human can get to eating ambrosia and it's sad you'll never experience it.
Your definition of the ultimate food fit for the gods is...a fried potato and butter sandwich? Look, I'm a y'all sayin inch measurin' moon landin' American; you don't have to offer me a fistful of carbs, fat and cholesterol twice. At the same time, you're also not convincing me it's the highest height that food can reach, because I've ever had smoked brisket.
I think the closest a human can get to eating Ambrosia without actually eating Ambrosia is probably Watergate salad?
Could you serve it with the brisket on the side, because that might do the trick.
~~One day someone will read the two line sidebar.~~
If I was to seriously pick a food for ambrosia contender, it'd be a curry, probably rogan josh.
Also, a pudding was not what I expected when I looked up watergate salad, honestly the most American thing I've seen today.
Look up what we call Ambrosia.
Fuck off and eat another pop tart.
Yall ever toast a pop tart and put butter on it?
Probably. Butter is their only condiment that isn't a color.
I'll defend the meal deal forever.
It's not good food. No one is pretending that it is. It IS a convenient and cheap meal that someone can pop out and get in a few mins.
The problem, like with fast food, is that the ยฃ3 meal deal is now the ยฃ5 meal deal, and with smaller portions that meal deal is creeping towards ยฃ7-10. At a given point, you may as well get a proper nice sandwich or meal elsewhere.
biscuits and gravy
at least has pepper in it.
plenty of shit food to go around
