This is the proper way to eat an American biscuit

maybe with cheese added.

Brits call dessert "pudding" even if they aren't having pudding for dessert. Must that monty pythonesque sense of humor permeate everything over there?

I grew up in the south. Step off my biscuits n' gravy.

 

[giga]

Stop butchering our language, you damn red coats. If you're going to steal our language, at least use it correctly.

 

[Kangi]

Our biscuits look better than that "biscuit" picture. Just saying.

 

[WalkMan]

Sausage McMuffin

Just googled sausage biscuit, that looks like nothing.

LOL

I certainly do not call my dessert "pudding", I just call it dessert. You wanker.

Step off me bro.

Wait.

You have McMuffins, Biscuits and McGriddles?

You indecisive fucks.

 

[Typographenia]

American biscuits are superior, sorry OP.

Also, that's not just gravy. It is biscuits covered in gravy mixed with breakfast sausage. One of the greatest food combinations of all time.

 

[SquiddyCracker]

Let's just call the scone's a-like an "American biscuit".

 

[Freewheelin']

See, now that looks like a bread roll to me.

Well I am a bit of a wanker. Only over here we call it chronic masturbater or one-handed keyboardist. Pudding helps...

I hasn't been slathered in freedom yet.

This looks like drywall to me.

well that's good then.

everyone loves a wank tbf.

 

[Kangi]

Dang it, people. Stop making me want McDonald's.

 

[XenodudeX]

These are rolls

 

[3Sixty]

This looks like drywall to me.

That is because it hasn't been dipped lovingly into a mug of tea yet.

 

[DUFFMCWALIN]

Waaaaaaay different though.

 

[demon]

That is because it hasn't been dipped lovingly into a mug of tea yet.

Then it looks like the walls in my parents' basement after it flooded?

 

[Vivalaraza]

Choc ones dipped in tea can't be topped.

Speaking of tea. Funny northerners think their tea is their dinner and their dinner is their lunch. Weird.

These are rolls

These are also bread rolls:

 

[Ryuukan]

Brits call flan "crème caramel", but they call custard just custard.
They made shit up as they went along.

Also calling both snow peas and snap peas "mange tout"

Hobnobs are my dipper of choice.

I used Tea/Dinner pretty universally. Lunch is always lunch.

Then it looks like the walls in my parents' basement after it flooded?

Yes.

But with a taste made for the gods.

 

[Log4Girlz]

Looks like Yorkshire Puddin' Govna

 

[3phemeral]

Absolutely love biscuits with the right kind of gravy in the same way that I love cornbread with a good chili.

 

[Horseticuffs]

You mother fuckers (mum fuckers for our brothers across the sea?) are making me crave all kinds of unhealthy shit

 

[Makonero]

I'm an American living in London and I can't for the life of me call potato chips "crisps" or french fries "chips." And I will always spell my words without the extra "u." And the letter "z" is NOT ZED. And it belongs in words like "familiarization!"

 

[3Sixty]

This video is very relevant

 

[Vivalaraza]

So how do American's distinguish between chips and fries?

 

[Freewheelin']

How you liking our fine country though? London is great innit m8?

 

[mentalward]

And the letter "z" is NOT ZED

Having lived in Canada I wholeheartedly second this.

 

[demon]

So how do American's distinguish between chips and fries?

Chips are flat and come in a million different varieties, and fries are, well, fries?

 

[giga]

So how do American's distinguish between chips and fries?

???

Fries are long and tubular. Chips are thin and round.

 

[Log4Girlz]

So how do American's distinguish between chips and fries?

They are visually quite distinct. Fries are similar to the French term Frites and and we created fucking potato chips.

 

[Horseticuffs]

So how do American's distinguish between chips and fries?

I don't understand. The two things are completely different. Chips are little wafers of fried potato you buy in a bag or packet, fries are thick vertical slices of potato traditionally served very hot.

 

[CrunchyFrog]

wtf you are not Karakand.

Don't worry, you will surely get the Karakand.

At the OP, what does a metric-loving, wrong side-driving fartface like you know bout REAL food? 'MERKA

 

[flintstryker]

Americans have been ruining the English language for far too long!

 

[Kangi]

How you liking our fine country though? London is great innit m8?

I'll never understand London's appeal. If I wanted unending rain, I'd just go to Seattle. If I wanted bad food, I'd... well... we don't have any bad food here.

 

[Log4Girlz]

Americans have been ruining the English language for far too long!

We are quite talented at doing so.

 

[Irish]

By the way, this is a McGriddle, Will:

 

[giga]

Americans have been ruining the English language for far too long!

??? If anything, you are ruining our language. Go learn French, or something.

 

[Auron_Kale]

So how do American's distinguish between chips and fries?

Chips to us is basically your crisps. Fries to us are what you call chips.

Also, they do sell digestive biscuits here in the US, though they're in specialty shops.

I'm partial to the McVittie's chocolate ones - they're great in coffee.

 

[Freewheelin']

There's bad food everywhere MATE. And rain.

 

[mentalward]

And while we are on the subject maybe one of you could explain to me why Downton Abbey is just Game of Thrones without the nudity and disembowelings.

 

[demon]

If you're such an English language purist, you brits have ruined it far more than anyone else.

 

[flintstryker]

As soon as you guys learn how to speak English properly.

So if you wanted our chips, what would have to ask for, chunky fries or something?
