Ah but he's cool.

Now what you don't want to do, is poke the fella with a stick....

Anyway, you forgot Neighbours, and making us look stupid at cricket...

I happened upon this thread again, and I looked back fondly on how we conducted a conversation and it remained good-natured throughout, even though there was a bit of [friendly] stereotyping and international banter. Ahh, the good old days...

Saluditos,

Actually, we have great food here in Britain. Because we have traditionally been a country of immigrants, you can find some of the best food in the world here :-)

In my town you can eat Indian, Thai, Chinese, Polish, Belgian, Greek, Turkish, Mexican, French, Spanish food, to name a few. I think that means we have pretty good food here, don't you :-)

Oh, and our beer is amazing, unlike that fizzy piss most of the rest of the world drinks

(Belgians and Germans excepted)

True, and it does happen wherever you go.

We have 'Indian' dishes that have been created in England, similarly I believe there are 'Chinese' dishes that have been created outside of China, e.g San Francisco.

We have a lot of influences in our cooking because of our multicultural environment, perhaps it would have been better to say that.

Anyway, I don't think any country has 'typical' food, just the food that people stereotype for that country e.g. fish and chips here, frogslegs or snails in France, sausages in Germany whatever, just silly national stereotypes - traditional food in the north will probably be different from that in the south, or sometimes the traditional food is just a memory, and no-one eats it anymore.
