The Great US vs UK Food Debate

Your definition of pudding seems to be gloopy chocolate mousse and not desserts in genereal like it is over here.

 

This is the British idea of pudding. Congealed blood on a plate.




Absolutely horrifying.

 

The second one actually made me throw up in my mouth a little bit.

 

Black Pudding (despite it's name) is not a pudding nor does it represent puddings in general. Your fry it for starters, name one other pudding you fry... wait you're American so you probably fry everything. Black pudding tastes ok, but I don't like the idea of eating it so I don't bother. Apple/rhubarb crumble with custard, now that's a pudding.

 

Way to stereotype. I actually grill or bake most of the food I cook. Keep trying.

 

Talk about a crime scene on a plate!

 

I think you'll find it is.



I typed "American pudding" into google. Look what came up.

Is that ham in that dessert?


Look! A bowl of baby shit!


"This cornmeal Indian pudding is a American as apple pie"


Umm. Someone sneeze on this dessert?


Speaking of crime scenes. "Native American rice pudding".


Chocolate pudding or bowl of shit?


Perhaps if you'd taken a look at your own puddings before knocking ours you might not look so silly right now.

 

Is it sad that when I hear pudding, I think of Bill Cosby and Jello pudding?

 

That's a Reuben sandwich with a dill pickle. It's corned beef, sauer kraut, and swiss cheese on rye bread. Jewish delis have made them popular. British people apparently can't even tell the difference between a sandwich and pudding, which just reinforces the idea that they know fuck all about food.

Here's a picture of one that's not half-eaten.



Some people smother them in thousand island salad dressing, which is what that orange stuff is, but they're pretty good plain.

 

No one EVER be hatin' on apple and rhubarb crumbles; they are fucking delicious.

 

I love reubens, and they're really easy to make at home. The best reubens are the ones I make after st patties day when I have lots of leftover corned beef.

There are variations on the reuben. I've had them made with pastrami instead of corned beef, Russian dressing instead of thousand island, and cole slaw instead of sauer kraut. There's a deli around here that adds tomatoes and blue cheese to them, which is surprisingly good.

 

Looks like shit to me. Then again we all have different tastes as I have stated before numerous times.

 

I never thought of putting bacon on it, but it sounds good. Bacon makes everything better. If you can make a grilled cheese, you can make a reuben.

 

Then it wouldn't be a Reuben.
