Ah, the signature dish of Count Flatulentius Montgolfier, the less successful pioneer of hot air balloons. Allegedly a distant relative of Glenn de Filthie....and the more distant, the better; preferably upwind. There may have been rumours of his proximity to Krakatoa, but nobody survived.
A guy I knew got a burrito while we were in England. After taking a bite, he realized that there were peas and carrots in there. That bite went into the trash along with the rest of the burrito.
I don’t think so, that might actually have some flavor that’s not completely disgusting. Spent a couple of months in England back in the 80’s and if it wasn’t for the beer and fish and chips, I’d have starved. Hard to believe those fuckers owned the Spice Islands at one point, they damn sure never used them for themselves. Eod1sg Ret
My dad was a minister. I grew up going to church potluck dinners. That would not have been out of place at all. Ladies all trying to outdo each other. Jello with lettuce and carrots and possibly even green olives. Then have the hot stuff melt together with the cold stuff… Ahhh, food paradise. It was a simpler time. WiscoDave
Why all the hate? She went to the trouble to splay the tomato that is plastered onto...whatever that mass of brown is. And don't the hard-boiled eggs look colorful and inviting atop the layer of mushy peas? Pub grub at its finest.
Wow….all the hate on British cuisine from you rebellious colonists :) You guys will never know the joy of having “full English” breakfast with a few pints in the morning. Best…thing…ever! FYI, the food pictured is cuscuz paulista, a very traditional Brazilian dish. Sometimes they put sardines or mackerel in it.
Home made dog log. The brand name is fresh pet. I ended up buying that for my dog. I got the dog from my mother, and she used to feed it that cheap ultra processed cheese and cold cuts. She was always getting sick with stomach trouble. I've been using that since and she only has trouble once in a while.
Left the UK almost 50 years ago. How time flies. First reaction to the photo was that I had never seen anything like that but I’d have a go at it. Understandable that it would be confused with grub from good old Blighty.
Thank you for reminding me that I should do the recycling stuff.
ReplyDeleteI threw up a little when I saw this ewww nasty
ReplyDeleteHard to tell if that was a before or after.

ReplyDeleteWhoops, downwind please. Wretched newfangled Baerbockian spatial orienteering technique has its downsides....now we know why it is called green.
DeleteGuaranteed dish to have you excused from ever participating in the neighborhood pot luck.
ReplyDeleteHell, cockroaches won't even touch that.
So . . . something good came out of it.

Fancy a cuppa with that? White with six sugars? Gross man.
ReplyDeleteLooks like it's time to grill some steaks. Which is any time, actually.

Some enterprising person "not wasting" food.
ReplyDeleteThat dish is every left over for a week with eggs added and it is disgusting to look at but try and eat it, the dog would refuse this one.

ReplyDeleteThat actually looks inviting. Hell I'd try it.

ReplyDeleteA full southern breakfast IS a couple of pints in the morning, can't eat baked beans until after 9am...just ain't right.

Shit on a shingle more appetizing then that for sure. Looked at it again still nasty.

ReplyDeleteWhy all the hate? There are things in this world far more disgusting than British cooking. For example, their women.
ReplyDeleteThat's just gnarly. These are people who eat tomatoes and beans for breakfast.
