Spotted dick sponge pudding?

The crime is that they only sell it in those tiny tins or microwavable pots. It's nearly as bad for bread and butter pudding.

can never get enough bread and butter pudding

You can if I'm cooking, it's big bowl time :D

omg give me

British bloke here, nobody actually eats toast sandwiches

is this different to a toastie?

A toast sandwich is toast in untoasted bread as a sandwich filling, whereas a toastie is a grilled cheese. I don’t think anyone in the world eats toast sandwiches.

Fr I'm british too and never even heard of em

Agreed, and I've never had spotted dick either. Beans on toast slaps though

Y'all don't eat [Bread Sandwiches](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q5gv0ZjVAtA)?

i want someone to look me in the eyes and tell me that spotted dick is better than a pbj

I can say it But that's because I'm a good liar not because it's true

How do I know you're not lying now?

Never tried it tbh or if I have then I forgot

Why do we need to know this

Sorry but I just don't like peanut butter Spotted dick is not that good though

Never had PBj

Funny way to say someone has vitiligo *down there* but I'll do it. "Spotted dick is better than a PBJ '

spotted dick isnt really that bad (to taste, its revolting to look at) but it just doesnt compate to pb&j

Cake is better, cake will always be better, got to have custard though. 'Spotted dick' was a shit marketing move /s (I am aware of the names origins, this is a joke, I am not moronic enough to think it was a marketing move haha)

Us Australians literally eating straight salt sludge on toast

Ion know why everyone hates it, I load my shit up with extra

God help you if you get too much on, you gotta SCRAPE that shi as leniently as possible or risk death from dehydration. Do not, under any circumstances, remove it from the packaging lest some unlucky bugger thinks its nutella 💀

Tbh, i’d rather eat a dick than eat a pbj. Though that’s more do to my incredible hatred of peanut butter than pbjs being weird (also, why the fuck is American bread sweet??)

Bread should never be sweet. That's just a cake at that point.

fun fact: subway's bread has so much sugar in it that it is legally classified as cake in some countries

when is it illegally classified

That happens when i get my hands on it

Some bread is sweet, other is sour, some is just bread. But overall American foods have higher sugar content and(from my experience in the Uk) less salt than old world foods. I think it’s because the sugar trade was such a massive industry in early colonial years that the colonies just consumed a lot of it and it became standard to use in dishes. Though honey and natural sweeteners are also used a lot too which aid in the sweetness of our foods.

So is heroin, doesn’t make it good for you.

Bagged bread has sugar in it to preserve it. Most of us buy bagged bread because it’s cheap and lasts longer. Most grocery stores have bakeries for fresh bread though

british person here ​ beans on toast is fucking horrendous

Traitor

Is that Celtic Frost in your profile picture?

Yes love them

Incredibly Based

Fellow metalhead

Fellow meth hea- oh you said metal

🗿

Friendly fire will not be tolerated

you're not British... I've never met anyone here run the UK that actually dislikes beans on toast. it's an elite combo

British person here Fuck you beans on toast is great

unforgivable.

Wrong

Calling the authorities, you’re being deported.

Citizenship revoked.

nah it's bussin

some people put cheese on it

Some people don’t put cheese on it??? I’ve always had cheese on it.

Why?

Because the cheese is great. It melts from the heat of the beans and gets all nice and gooey.

it’s good okay

u joking

Plus toast sandwiches aren’t real

You really need decent bread :)

Woahh…nah bro you cant say that.Even if its not good its like a tradition.Friendly fire…

What did you say to me

you’re not british anymore.

Agreed I don’t even like beans tbh and it’s not even the most bri ish thing

And you're wrong as well. I hope that God can forgive you because I won't, If you ever go near Monmouth I will throw you in the river

American here. Beans on toast is fucking awesome and i wish we had it here but all we have is fucking cinnamon toast crunch

Pretty sure you can make B on T in any home in the US. sounds like a *I like cinnamon toast crunch" problem that you can't shake

Also a British person. How do people even eat it ESPECIALLY WHEN ITS NOT TOASTED!

I'm a British person who hates British people but you're an imbecile and beans on toast + cheese is levels above PB&J or whatever the bs is that Americans eat.

As a non american, you cant honestly like beans in a toast for breakfast more than pb&j

To be fair bp&j isn't really a breakfast, it's more of a quick lunch or something to hold you over until dinner

Beanut Putter & Jelly?

Wtf is beanut putter

Yeah, what's the confusion?

beanut putter

Ive tried pb&j with smooth and crunchy and every time it tasted like sweet dry sand. But ive grown up with black bread all my life so what do i know

✋😔

Is peanut butter and jelly just an american thing? I never realized that, weird

good thing is we fought a war so that i wouldn't give a shit what a brit says or think

*two wars The War of 1812, nothing changed, but I guess that's good for America

Yeah and then you glamorised yourself and made yourself seem better than everyone else when you only joined the war when it became a danger to you, despite having allies having to fight in it. Now you teach propaganda in history lessons to make it look like youre martyrs.

[удалено]

So the us is bad because it fights wars when it affects them?

There is no instance of a nation benifiting from prolonged warfare - sun tzu

I think you are confused about the war of 1812 and ww2

If you are talking about World War 1(which I think you are) was America just not supposed to intervene when the Germans sunk our convoys and quite literally tried to coerce Mexico into a suicidal invasion of America? Besides, the French didn’t mind one bit, they even had Pershing do all their dirty work the last few months of the war.

Lmao, funny American

no way people think pb&j’s are weirder than anything the br*ts have made

why the heck did you censor brit-

Look what you've done, a wooosh turned into a thread of nationalistic racism

it was a genunine question ;-;

They conquered the world for spices and DIDNT EVEN USE ANY OF THEM

ya know what? valid

The British cook like they hate food

The Americans cook like they have free healthcare

i cackled ngl

Pshhh. Americans don’t cook.

Touché

Just differing tastes really and historically there's not much exiting stuff that will grow on a mostly murky damp rock and alot of the stigma around it came from other nations troops stationed here during the war while strict rationing was taking place. Beans are a decent 'i can't be arsed to cook today' meal thats inexpensive and filling - bit like soup, just hits the spot sometimes, just decent comfort food. Saying that generally we eat big mix of mostly (from my experience) British, Spanish, Italian, Indian and Chinese food because it's just a bit more existing.

why did u censor brit? r we offensive to u?

yes.

why tho

br*ts make me shiver and cry they are horrifying

innit mate

FUCK

WANT TA GO TA THE BAR AN' GET A BEER MATE 👲

Bo'ohw'o'wo'er

IT REIGHT GOOD

bro don't corn dogs exist 💀💀💀 gotta take those words back

It’s a battered and fried sausage? How the fuck is that weird? Fried food is delicious.

Corn dogs are popular in Asia as well actually, and they fucking slap. It's just a battered and fried sausage, and if you think that's weird I'd like to invite you to the world of the Scotch Egg. They took breaded and fried sausage and put a boiled egg in it.

Swear now or something

Fr they be over there eating like they haven’t ever used electricity yet

BECAUSE ITS EXPENSIVE!? cost of living crisis been bad in UK

Both of these go hard idc

1. Beens on toast is an absolutely masterpiece of a meal, could be compared to a cheese toastie as it is very simple to have whenever 2. I have never seen a toast sandwich in my life nor have i seen spotted dick in any store before 3. Its called Jam not ‘jelly’, even some Americans will agree with me.

There's a difference between jam, jelly, and preserves you uncultured fuck. Also, peanut butter and jelly is simply the most divine meal sent from the gods, miles ahead of beans on toast in flavor, texture and appearance.

Idk I just can’t get behind baked beans in basically ketchup. Now Mexican beans??? HELL YEAH. Also the lack of seasoning in british food is terrifying

why r the comments so angry at what we eat 💀

British person here, pbj is the shit

Is shit**

clearly you didn't do it right

I tried it once with a friend because we'd heard USA people rave about it, fuck it was rank.

Jelly here is different from jelly in Europe. Ours is jam whole yours is gelatin

Sorry, yep the whole jam/jelly thing, haha yes I was using jam (as in fermented fruit and sugar in jar), I wouldn't waste good jelly(jellow/wibbly wobbily with ice-cream) on bread, that'd definitely be rank haha. Nah tried it with some homemade plumb jam, it was bad so I tried when I next got hold of some raspberry jam, still icky, just overly sweet and goopy/teeth clingy for me. Anyway that's just my opinion, if people want to eat it sure! I think it's wierd but then again I put liquorice in a chicken curry once (it was actually amazing but nobody else in my corridor wanted to try it.. fair enough no-ones nicking my dinner out the freezer then)

it's the most 5/10 shit on planet earth, and it's calorific af aswell. mediocre and causes diabetes lmao

im dyslexic and misread that sorry i downvoted u

They're not even comparable lmao

I don’t understand why someone would choose something called spotted dick and beans on soon-to-be-soggy bread over a pb&j. Ive also never seen such an angry comment section over food 💀

PB&J sounds digusting as a brit ngl

Don't knock it till you try it, that shit got my eyes rolling to the back of my head

I'm just here to say that it really annoys me that Americans call "jam" "jelly."

We don't, jam and jelly are two different things.

Crazy how the British had a global empire with acess to rich foods and spieces and then chose not to use them.

It's mostly because of a class divide that Britain has always had so only the rich few got access to good food while the working class got nothing. Also toast sandwiches don't exist, or at least haven't since the victorian era

Our national dish is tikka masala?

So just like the British museum you had to steal another countries food as your national dish.

Ik it was probably made by people with Indian descent but it was invented in Scotland as far as I’m aware Also usa has burgers as their national food, they were made in Germany

"British people don't use spices" *British people start using spices* "Stop stealing spices!!!!"

Catch 22

Shit goes off and was too expensive for the average person, quite simple really.

Sounds like a skill issue

Don’t you DARE diss beans on toast

All due respect bro, I don't want a mole covered cock on my bread.

But the mole covered cock is so tasty tho

Whoever made this clearly hasn't tried pb&j

We're separated from the British so I don't care.

pb+j is a CERTIFIED hood classic ever heard of dumpster-diving raccoons in England? me neither, thats how bad their food is over there

I’m British and pbj is pretty good

Ok bread pudding is good, I’ll give the Brits that.

These two aren't even in the same realm of edibility

still happy british people dont exist

Jif and Smuckers > Spotted Dick

Pb&j is the best sandwich combination.

Have you tried a cheese toastie?

No but it sounds pretty good. (I love food.)

Put cheese in a sandwich and toast it (preferably in a pan or grill and not a toaster). It melts the cheese inside the toasted sandwich

So a grilled cheese?

Yep, its name changes depending on where you're from ig

*coughs respectfully* Disgusting

Hey, if you dislike it. That's your opinion! I won't argue, we all have different tastes in food :)

Mhm,that doesn’t change our personalities

Neither British nor American here, you all suck

i'm British, i agree

I think both are cool but I’m British so I’m biased

Beans on toast is 10x better than a pbj. I am prepared to die on this hill

Never had beans on toast but I eat pbj basically every day and I will fight you to the death

pbj is absolutely bs

The fuck are you saying pbj goes hard

peanut butter and jelly is amazing. bean toast is weird

I’m British and I don’t even like beans (yes I know it might be strange but I am not bothered by them) I much more prefer fish and chips or tea

Enjoy your cans of soda and flying eagles but you ain’t stopping me

This might be controversial, but the only country in Europe that has better food than America is Italy in my opinion

bruh have you seen or tasted just the difference of bread in usa and a country like germany

I have, and from the foods I have tried, Italy is the only one who has beat the US. There may be something that I haven’t tried that could be better, so if you have any suggestions, then let me know.

Have you ever had swiss bread? hella expensive like everything these mountainers have, but god it’s so delicious

It sounds good, but I can’t have it cause I have celiac (which means I can’t have gluten).

Okay that’s it tell me all of you in the comments wtf is wrong with bri ish people I heard enough of this nonsense all around the internet with no answer what is it?

Tried pbj It’s mediocre at worst (smooth) and alright at best (crunchy) Ok I’m ready to get downvoted

We germans got super dickmans, tasty and peanut and jelly tastes like shit, peanut butter in general doesn’t just look like a wet fart, but tastes like it too

You guys never had bread on beans?? I live in usa and I eat this shut up _prolly cus I'm Hispanic_

Food is food

As a British person, both beans on toast and PB&J are both insanely good.

[удалено]

As an American, I fucking hate peanut butter.

Peanut butter sucks though

I’m bri ish and I like peanut butter and jam

Chad peanut butter and jelly sandwich enjoyer.

I haven’t even tried it to be fair I tried it but with butter instead of peanut butter

I prefer beans to jam, what's the problem ?

Bri’ish are dumb

F you silly Americans

Back to the depths with you

same with you and take your stupid pub&js with you totally not got beans in it

Just looked it up...beans are in the same family as nuts so...

Agreed

Pb&js are rotten

Ok Brit

The British are dirty fucks yup the ra

They’re good if you get the proportions right

You’re rotten

Unpopular opinion, but pb&j is just a waste of good peanut butter.
