I_Am_The_Cattle@reddit

I thought those sausages were side kind of worm or grub

[-]

AlphonseLoosely@reddit

So yes, British. Our passport and cultural identity don't have to match

[-]

stead10@reddit

They never said they weren’t British they just provided more clarified info, nothing wrong with that.

[-]

SmartPriceCola@reddit

I’m Scottish and I’d eat this… I didn’t know food like this was abnormal to others lol

[-]

MadamVoid@reddit

I should’ve known by the fries 😂 spent 4.5yrs working for Glaswegians and I’m still surprised by what yall eat

[-]

1tiredman@reddit

This isn't shitty food it's comfort food. I'm not British but I am Irish and chips, beans and sausages are so fucking good. I know Americans will clown this but they've never tried it

[-]

Fucky0uthatswhy@reddit

You think we’ve never tried hot dogs, fries, and beans?

[-]

stead10@reddit

Hot dogs and sausages are not the same. We’d never dream of having this with hot dogs.

Also American beans are usually sweeter or BBQ flavour. Ours aren’t.

[-]

Princess_Slagathor@reddit

We actually have at least two kinds of beans here. Definitely more than one.

[-]

Buddy-Matt@reddit

I honestly didn't think baked beans were a thing in America.

As for the other two, im assuming theres a pants/trousers chips/crisps lost in translation thing going on here, because fries are thin skinny things in the UK, not proper chunky chips like this Both good, but not the same. And hot dog when referring tonthe meat bit exclusively means a smoked sausage of the style you get in tins/jars. Something like a Saveloy. And certainly not a thick proper butcher's sausage.

I.e. hotdogs + fries and sausage + chips are two very different meals to a Brit.

AdExcellent1745@reddit

thats crazy because as an American, baked beans feels classically American

[-]

Buddy-Matt@reddit

Well, this comment made me Google.

American baked beans and British baked beans aren't the same thing.

American baked beans are smokey and sweet, a BBQ side.

Whereas British baked beans are more savoury and tomato based.

So, Baked Beans are classically American. However the food item pictured, also referred to as baked beans, very much aren't.

[-]

Princess_Slagathor@reddit

But have you ever had Boston Baked Beans?

[-]

AdExcellent1745@reddit

interesting! I think both styles definitely have their place

[-]

VisionAri_VA@reddit

Your chips would be called “steak fries” here. Really skinny ones are “shoestring fries”.

[-]

crypt_moss@reddit

yea I mean loaded fries exist?? usually not done w/ hot dogs I guess but refried beans wouldn't be unusual

[-]

CyclicalDub@reddit

Brother, once you get off that island you will find that the world is full of amazing food. Churchill is dead, the planes aren’t flying over anymore. You no longer need to eat like this.

[-]

TheTaintBurglar@reddit

You utter ignorant gimp

[-]

SituationSoap@reddit

This is extremely standard US cookout food. Probably half the country will have a meal that's a lot like this during the upcoming summer.

[-]

Adventurous-Dot-8272@reddit

The items being separate is one thing, beans being under or (even worse) over everything is what makes it unappealing.

[-]

1tiredman@reddit

Naw the beans being over everything is what makes it good lol

[-]

Artmonkey415@reddit

Im American and "beenie weenies" or " franks and beans" are a common comfort food. I'll admit I clown on some British food, but I've never said a negative thing about sausage.

[-]

Huge_Resort441@reddit

This looks like a proper British fry-up to me. Those pickled onions are the perfect touch.

[-]

North-Program-9320@reddit

I’d eat the fuck out of that. Just give me some toast and some tea.

This is shittyfoodporn
Meat n 3 veg...

[-]

thelectricrain@reddit

The only vegetable here is the row of tiny onions lol

[-]

meatflaps-69@reddit (OP)

Now I cant speak for where you are in the world but here our chips are made of potato.

[-]

thelectricrain@reddit

Potatoes and beans aren't vegetables though. They're carbs.

[-]

TBellOHAZ@reddit

How's school going?

[-]

thelectricrain@reddit

In the language I grew up speaking, we don't call potatoes, beans and corn "vegetables".

[-]

TBellOHAZ@reddit

I learned a cultural thing, today. But they are recognized widely as vegetables, distinct from grains and cereals.

[-]

SituationSoap@reddit

Grains and cereals are also vegetables (a vegetable is any edible plant). But in terms of food groups, neither potatoes nor grains are vegetables.

[-]

AJurassicSuccess@reddit

I wouldn’t call them vegetables. They’re more like seeds. Veg isn’t any edible plant. That would make fruit vegetables. Vegetation, sure.

[-]

SituationSoap@reddit

Fruit are vegetables too, yes.

[-]

AJurassicSuccess@reddit

No they fuckin aren’t lol

[-]

SituationSoap@reddit

Vegetation and vegetable come from the same root word. The definition of a vegetable is any edible plant matter.

The food group generally doesn't include fruits but the definition of vegetables includes fruits, and also grains, cereals, etc.

[-]

AJurassicSuccess@reddit

That's literally not the definition. You just made it up lol

[-]

TBellOHAZ@reddit

A vegetable is not any edible plant.

A vegetable is the edible parts of a plant that are not the mature ovary of a flowering plant that contains or is a seed; which is a fruit.

Grains and cereals are not vegetables—botanically or nutritionally. We are eating the seed.

-Potatoes are vegetables botanically, and in most dietary guidelines they are counted as vegetables (specifically starchy vegetables), not excluded from the vegetable group.

[-]

LonnieJaw748@reddit

They are definitely vegetables, that happen to be starchy. The beans are technically seeds from a fruit. If it is an edible, typically savory part of a plant—such as roots, stems, leaves, or bulbs, it’s a vegetable.

[-]

thelectricrain@reddit

You are arguing in the taxonomic sense, I am referring to the culinary sense. If someone tells a kid to "eat your vegetable" you know damn well they're not referring to smiley fries.

[-]

shFt_shiFty@reddit

While they have carbs, they are indeed vegetables also

[-]

meatflaps-69@reddit (OP)

Yeah you are clearly american ;)

They are both vegetables you thick cunt.

[-]

wasteoffire@reddit

In what way? There's not a lot of carbs here

[-]

thelectricrain@reddit

Ehh, potatoes and beans. I've seen worse on this sub though.

[-]

thelectricrain@reddit

More like high blood pressure tbh.

[-]

Hillbillygeek1981@reddit

I'm American and I would eat that. Mind you, I'm from a part of the country with a pretty heavy Scots and Irish influence and have the genes to prove it, so there may some ancestral palate profiling to that, lol.

Judging by the comments the Scottish have the same reputation for eating anything thay we do in Appalachia.

GravyPainter@reddit

This is what I like to imagine you get when you order an English Breakfast in Uzbekistan

[-]

TheVojta@reddit

People are clowning by I'd be all over that, looks goddamn delicious.

[-]

c_monies_@reddit

People overlooking that you haven't separated the chipolatas! Is there also a different sausage?

Awesome stuff, but you need a new vinegar lad.

[-]

meatflaps-69@reddit (OP)

Vinegar bottle is patiently waiting on pickled onion vinegar from jar.

Yeah theres 4x wee beef and 4x wee pork plus the smoked sausage

[-]

Big_Miss_Steak_@reddit

Sorry this is a bit off topic but does your sarsons bottle unscrew to refill it??

I stopped buying them years ago because the bastards made the bottle tops permanently fixed and you couldn’t unscrew the top to refill them. But I may need to rethink this if they’ve changed back.

I’ve got a glass vinegar shaker but I’ve yet to find the perfect one that doesn’t leak or break.
