Sausage rolls are in pastry.  It's not bread or a croissant.  As a professional baker, it breaks my heart when Americans call anything baked bread.  Croissants are also pastry, not bread.  You'd be amazed how many things are not bread.  😃

The bad rep for British food comes from rationing because of WW2. It lasted long after the war with some items stilling being rationed up to 1954. As a result of the shortage of good ingredients, the food really wasn't that great - people had to make do with what they had. The reputation stuck. It's not true any more.

A content creator calles kalani ghost hunter from the south of the US travels to the uk regularly after trying some of our food, in the US he eats really healthily but in the uk he truly indulged himself, he was so shocked to find out that even after feasting on our greasiest foods he still lost weight

A Yorkshire pudding CANNOT be described.
You cannot put perfection into words.
Sunday roast with every trimming is essential and the best dinner on the planet.

The way he ate that pasty made me want to cry. he ate through the part that keeps it all together, then was concerned when it all fell apart.

"they didnt even give him vinegar" you usually have salt shakers and a plastic or glass bottle to decant your vinegar before leaving, rather than a sachet. Tartar sauce is different, you can get pots of homemade like you can curry sauce or gravy but cheaper places will have stire bought or sachets. Usually a piddly sachet of vinegar and then tearing it a bit and trying to get it all over like some people drench their chips, it doesnt always work and just adds more plastic rubbish compared to refilling a bottle and everyone splashing on what they want

The US stereotype of UK food is based on the experiences of US soldiers stationed there in WW2. We had to be incredibly frugal, and imported foods were out of the question, even turning our little gardens into vegetable plots, with food heavily rationed so that we might feed the troops. Inevitably, food was very bland and simple at the time, with nothing going to waste.
Needless to say, UK cuisine has changed a great deal since then, but the bad reputation still persists in the USA (But let's be honest, you guys don't get out very much!). Since around the 60s we started to be influenced by immigrant cuisines and our new found ability to travel to Europe - with that, and our own imagination we've created a new, and very yummy cross-cultural cuisine of our own.
The UK food scene is blighted a bit by our failing economy, which drives people who are less well off to cheap and bland, processed foods. But the general trend is upward, and if you have a bit of cash to spare, we have some of the best food, produce, chefs and restaurants in the World.
Black pudding is what you folks in Spain call morcilla - a pork blood sausage. Yorkshire pudding is very similar to what I've heard US folk call a "pop-over". It's like a bridging component to a Sunday lunch. We enjoy combination mouthfuls, so we take a bit of Yorkshire pudding, add a piece of roast meat and some vegetables etc., scoop up some gravy, and you have a wonderful explosion of wholesome yumminess in the mouth!

This is my brother — an Italian guy who travels for his passion for discovering new cultures and cuisines !! Big up

The fried fish section was set in a town called Lyme Regis. The gulls there are insane. He was fortunate not to have lost his dinner. While there, I witnessed a gull snatch a whole carton of fish and chips from someone. It flew off and was immediately attacked by a flock of gulls. This caused it to drop the meal onto the lap of a poor young woman, sitting on the beach, reading a book. All the gulls descended onto her. The poor woman is probably still having trauma treatment.

Pies in the UK are usually savoury and have been a traditional on-the-go food since the Middle Ages. We do have sweet pies (fun fact, Apple Pie is English and goes back centuries, when we took it to the Americas), but not as popular as the savoury ones, usually steak, chicken, lamb (a Scots Pie), pork, game and various vegetarian ones such as cheese and onion. The pie is entirely enclosed in pastry top and bottom so you can eat it in your hands while out and about, rather than the pot pie more typical in the US. Pies are the iconic thing you eat at British football games. If you REALLY want to geek out on pies, check out Callum Franklin, the pie man.

The colour of egg yolks is dependent upon what the hens have been fed... and is determined by the carotenoids (yellow, orange, and red pigments) a hen consumes. Foods rich in these pigments, like yellow corn, alfalfa meal, leafy greens, and certain flowers (like calendula or marigolds), will result in darker, more orange yolks. Foods with fewer pigments, like wheat or white corn, will result in lighter yolks. Hens with access to grassy pastures tend to lay eggs with darker yolks due to the carotenoids found in clovers, grasses, and other greens, as well as insects they may consume!

The people who criticise food in the UK have never been here, but we don't care as when they do they go wow, you have every country of food in the world ❤

Cornish pasties is the original Spanish sailors took the recipe home to Spain and changed it into empanadas...by law you can't call this type of pasty a Cornish pasty unless its made in Cornwall,the name has protected status like champagne can only be call champagne if it comes from the French region of champagne

Calling black pudding a veggie patty made me laugh out loud 😂😂

In America, eggs are washed before being sold.  This is due to the unhygienic conditions on poultry farms, which means more profits.  Washing removes a protective barrier that eggs naturally have to prevent bacterial infection, so American eggs must be refrigerated.  In Europe, all chickens are vaccinated against salmonella and kept in more expensive, but hygienic conditions, so they don't have to be refrigerated, which preserves a better flavour.

Lisa, street food is street food, the best stuff is at restaurants and Tesco’s.  I’m Aussie and we inherited a lot of British foods!  Beef and Dumplings, Scotch eggs, Meatloaf, Sunday Roasts, Bangers and Mash, meat pies and sausage rolls, etc, they’re all delicious, especially in winter as comfort foods!

The correct way to order fish and chips: you ask for it, they give you a choice of fish (my preference is haddock), they ask you if you want salt and vinegar, and you say "LOTS". Then, a lot of people ask for curry sauce and mushy peas, but I'm a gravy guy myself. Especially if it's thick.

Black pudding is made from blood. Lovely iron rich addition to a full English breakfast.

"no vinegar..... they didn't give him vinegar".
In a proper chippy they don't give you vinegar, in a pot as it's not for dipping like ketchup or mayo.  When you order the fish and chips they'll ask if you want salt and vinegar, and it gets put on before it's wrapped...
and a Yorkshire pudding doesn't have 'pudding' in it.  Pudding doesn't just have the one definition like it does in the US.  It can be a few different things, from a dessert to a chubby person.  but a Yorkshire pudding is pretty much an ovened pancake.

Black pudding is made from blood, oats, fat, herbs and spices placed in a pigs intestines and boiled. Then sliced and fried in bacon fat it's yummy despite what it's made of
