An American trolled British cuisine and these 13 replies will make you proud to be a Brit

Time to return to the apparently bottomless well that is the cultural chasm that exists between the US and basically anywhere else.

This time it’s food – specifially, British food – that this American chose to have a little pop at.

It’s someone called @MoMohler who, according to their Twitter bio, is ‘Rated 100% pure, grade A, American “little beef boy” by JD Power And Associates.’ No arguing with that!

And they did it like this.

As Americans we all go out to eat for…

Mexican
Chinese
Italian
Korean
Greek
even Irish

But, I’ve never once heard any one say “let’s go out for British food.”

And whether it was intended as a bit of good natured ribbing or otherwise, it’s fair to say it got British backs up. Right up. And these people surely said it best.

Much like us Brits don’t say, “Let’s go out for American” https://t.co/0PQyYaAMph

I will not take culinary advice from any citizen of a country that considers cheese in a spray-can as food. FRO pic.twitter.com/uowmpABUQu

The fact you would mention Irish as if it were different to British food proves you don’t know what you’re talking about and this list is political lol https://t.co/Z12fDNTotm

Chicken tikka masala, one of the most popular curry dishes in the world was invented in Glasgow, Scotland.
Enjoy your spray can cheese.

irish on this list is a stretch lol. irish pubs serve pub grub which has huge overlap with british pub food. not exactly surprising given centuries of colonisation by the british on top of the fact we’re two tiny islands next to each other with similar climates/ingredients https://t.co/462diA6uJm
