    This keeps coming up like British chefs aren’t household names in America.

    Also, spotted dick is awesome.

      British food is unironically amazing.

      Roast dinners, English Breakfast, British-Indian cuisine, cakes/puddings, pies and pastries, casseroles, cheeses, fucking sandwiches, a well-executed fish and chips. Shit, even super basic stuff like Macaroni cheese can taste really good if it’s made with some good technique.

      But what’s even more amazing is the US’s ability to push stereotypes based on WW2 rationing even into the 2020s.

      But I’m just ribbing; Toad in the hole is fucking delicious.

      I dunno, they’re taking a massive beating lately from Uncle Roger.

          No, he Malaysian, as is the character. Just because he immigrated doesn’t mean you claim him. Do you work for the East India Company?
