Re: Why do British people underestimate the taste of a cheeseburger ???
It is a silly argument to suggest that Brits don't know a decent cheeseburger. Burgers are everywhere in the UK. Personally, I hate cheese and I also hate fish, so clearly there are going to be plenty of exceptions when one tries to stereotype. As a disillusioned Englishman, I think the food culture is the only thing beyond criticism. In terms of choice and taste, the English have the best of all worlds. However, that is as far as my praise will go for that place as choice and taste are diminishing returns in all other avenues.

Re: Why do British people underestimate the taste of a cheeseburger ???

What are you basing this assumption on? Because it's way off.

My grandmother is from Liverpool, my grandfather was from Puerto Rico, he was in the army in WW2, he ended up meeting my grandmother and they got married, her family disowned her and she moved to Chicago, maybe about 5-6 years ago that side of the family reached out to us, they visit us once a year now.
They love all kind of stuff that I wouldn't eat, blood herring/ blood sausage etc, I had one of my cousins eat some baked beans along with some scrambled eggs which was ddisgusting, anyway they tell me that a burger over in the UK is no way as big as it is in the states, they are typical fish people.

Re: Why do British people underestimate the taste of a cheeseburger ???
There are 1200 Mcdonalds in the UK.
In one 3 month period it receives approx 350 million visits. Equal to every single person visiting 5 times in that time. I can't find the figures but I'm guessing either the Big Mac or Double Cheeseburger is the most popular item. People generally don't think Mcdonalds and think 'Fish'.

Oh yeah the kids are queuing round the block for it.Fish burger the most popular
I know that when I fancy some fish I head straight to the nearest McDonalds. But you know, I am British, so that's just par for the course. One of the finest fish restaurants around.

Fair enough, you guys have admitted however that fish is more in demand over there, where does a burger rank on your list of favorites ryan?
