Some Things About British Food French People Just Can't Handle
Britain is the land of quite much uniqueness in both nature and culture. Specifically, here you can find many cuisines that are like no other. Don't talk about how they taste just yet; their names and appearance at first are already suspicious enough. For example, rumbledethumps, a dish made from cabbage, potato, and onion, usually go with some cheese toppings. Even though it looks nothing more than mashed potato with bits of crunch, it tasted surprisingly good.
However, some other British foods are legit questionable in many aspects. Yes, food is culture, and each country has its cultural traits. Therefore, it's easy to see even neighboring countries have some things that perplex each other. Similarly, many French people find it frustrating to witness how British people do with their food. Pre-sliced courgette sheets?! Giraffe baguette?! What are people doing here?
Below are some things about British food that enrage Fench folks. As some say, "Sorry, but your food and drink are terrible."
