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

[greynotsoold]

There are few things better than a good homemade pasty. My nan makes great ones, proper massive. I'm fairly confident that they're proper pasties too and not some shite Northern knock off.

Question: has anybody here tried/heard of suet and onion pudding? I always thought it was a just a common British meal but I've got friends who aren't from the area and whenever I've mentioned it in the past I've got a confused look and they've said it sounds disgusting. Are they just being stupid or is it a Northern thing?

My aunt made pasties for 3 of her daughters weddings, and made, by her count, 10,000 more to build this: Our Lady of the Rockies
She once got irate with me because I said I liked the product from Joe's Pasty Shop. She preferred to make her own. A good friend of mine once quit speaking to me for the same reason; she prefers Nancy's Pasties.
Butte is known as the "festival City" because, during July, we host the Montana Folk Festival, Evel Knieval Days and the AnRiRa Irish Festival. These are all three international events- at least a few people come from abroad, though we'll see over 100,000 extra people here each July. The guythat runs Park Street Pasties runs a booth through all the events and, I've heard, makes upwards of $50,000 that month. I have never had his pasties- Joe's is closer.

Looks like an empanadas, first time I've heard the word pasty.

Yup, empanadas are pretty much pasties, but with a more exciting filling.

Tripe is nice. I love liver and onions. British cuisine at its best. Do they eat things like brawn (brains) etc in the States?

If you're a dog.

Pffft, your missus should love it then!

The standard size of an american plate compared to the uk should tell you everything.

The irony, you started this thread suggesting that Brits didn't know good cheeseburgers

Those things are delicious, way better than any McDonalds trash and nothing like an Empanada. Ya noob.

That's some impressive fundraising. Great effort by everyone involved to raise that much for the statue.

Yeah I imagine small business owners can make a killing when events like that roll into town. We have an International air show that comes to Sunderland once a year for a weekend in late July. I'd guess that the fish and chip shops along the sea front make a good amount that weekend with all the people that come to it.

Do Americans like steak and kidney pies.?

I used to love a Peter's Pies version of them. Used to work in a gaff that had them delivered weekly. Stick 'em in the microwave, nice and soggy. @Greenbeanz would be horrified.

You can keep your Northern pies you cheeky cockernee bastard. We have only just got electrickery, microwaves are like a fisherman's myth. Some weird device that cooks things at the speed of light.

I have just bought one for my Grandson.
