Thanks for commenting, I’ve heard of similar stories of pasties being available in some parts of America where Cornish miners moved there many years ago and took the pasty with them.

The Cornish Pasties seemed to be missing the potato and swede (rutabaga) and should have been heavily seasoned with ground black pepper and some salt…and when I say heavily seasoned with black pepper, I really mean it but a traditional Cornish Pasty isn’t just meat…there are also many types of pasties that have cheese in them and different spices, meats and some have a thick sauce too. But if you’re going to claim that you’re serving a Cornish Style Pasty, it should be diced beef (skirt is the traditional cut), diced potatoes and diced swede (rutabaga for the US, turnip for Scots), a sensible amount of salt and a LOT of ground black pepper and I think it’s either rough puff or shortcrust pastry that is traditionally used.

I know that there were a fair few people in the comments saying that they shouldn’t be served with anything but to be honest, although I know they were created as a full meal in one package, I’ve known not only many places that serve them as the main part of a dish with salad/chips/mash/veg/beans etc on the side but there were enough Cornish people that I knew that did the same in their own home…after all, not everyone needs to eat them like the Tin Miners did 😊

I’m pretty sure if the miners felt that it would be simple, sensible and the best way for them to enjoy their pasties, they would have had a savoury one on a plate with some mash and veg and a sweet one in a bowl with custard down the tin mines with them but at the end of the day they had theirs the way they did because it was convenient. But I bet if and when they had them at home they too enjoyed them with all the trimmings and loads of gravy to enjoy the crusts they had to throw away when they were at work.

[@LindaC616]

When these guys say "seasoning", they're probably thinking something on the spicy side. There is a town in Mexico called Pachuca where a bunch of Welsh miners ended up when the Mexican Government advertised years ago that they wanted silver miners to come revitalize their mining industry.

Speaking as a british girl, born and bred there were a few issues with the food. The fish and chips wasn't particularly accurate, the fish would normally be thinner and longer and the batter much lighter. The chips weren't quite right either too thick and over cooked. A cornish pasty wouldn't normally be served as a meal, it would typically be eaten alone and it would be made with shortcrust pastry instead of puff and contain minced beef, onions, swede (you guys call it rutabega) and potato - heavily seasoned with white pepper and some salt.

Thank you so much gentlemen... You gave everything that was served to you a try... (Even The Black Pudding)... And although every dish served to you was prepared with love... The genuine meals prepared in a UK Cafe or Eatery... Or even made at home... Will be of a much higher quality and taste... But this will at least give you a rough idea of what they actually taste like... I hope that at some point in the future... You'll have the opportunity to fly over to the UK... And try some of these delicious dishes for yourself... As a Pasty from The Ginger Pig in London's Borough Market... Is so incredibly delicious... If i can... I'll include below in the comments section... A clip of two guys trying a Pasty from The Ginger Pig in London's Borough Market. 👍

As a Brit I really enjoyed watching that

[@jazzlynsmith7086]

I watch every episode !!!

[@brandonsingleton4170]

Despite not being the best representation of each dish, there are some really solid choices there. Thankyou from the UK 🇬🇧 We get too much hate for our dishes. British fry ups are one of best breakfast meals in the world imo. Also I want to add Mexican food is one of my all time favourites 🤝 Cheers

The absolute best thing to wash down fish and chips is ice cold dandelion and burdock.

[@LordJebusVII-q5p]

Loved this, they didn't just like the food they understood it. Fish and chips by the sea with beer, drinking tea while listening to the birds sing, this was food being appreciated and respected, even the suggestions for improvement were spot on and reflect popular modifications to the traditional recipes.

[@tonyjolley832]

There aren't many places in the US that have actual British style fish and chips. In the UK, they basically batter and fry an entire side of a fish. I haven't found many places in the US that do that.

[@LindaC616]

I live in Rhode island, on the coast. Since we have so many English and Irish people here, you can find it here

[@Call-Me-Flores]

​@@LindaC616 No kidding. Place called New England has a bit of English influence.

[@LindaC616]

I went to a place yesterday that I haven't been to in a while. I don't recall that they had fish and chips on the menu previously. But while it's not my favorite place to go for fish and chips, I ordered it. It wasn't beer-battered, it had some sort of coating. But it was definitely a whole side of fish. Not thick, like cod, but some sort of white fish

[@jaylupin8680]

I have no idea why this video popped up on my thread, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Listening to these gentleman discuss their thoughts on some of our foods was really interesting and entertaining.

I love you guys gave them tea. Not seen that before but I’m glad they liked it.

[@MegaRazorback]

As someone who has British blood in them i had to shake my head at the sticky toffee pudding and English custard being separate before seeing them served together, that's how they are supposed to be served, TOGETHER! 🤣🤣🤣

[@indiajaynemitchell]

Sticky toffee pudding can be served with cream or custard or even ice cream. A lot of people opt for the cream as it’s sweet enough without the sweetness of the custard.

[@lordcharfield]

[@gothgirl66673]

I always feel like fish and chips in the US is meh because you don't have the right fish here. Should be haddock, cod is OK but not as good and my (Scottish) dad can't stand the ling cod they use a lot in California. Ideally should have been swimming around not long ago, which is why it's best in a fishing town (in the south of England they might use lemon sole or plaice). I'll bet if you took someone Mexican and had them try it in the UK they'd be able to find the perfect type of fish to use back home. No surprise that they liked the sticky toffee pudding, sweets are really what we're best at. They're right btw that the custard shouldn't be served by itself, though custard with sticky toffee pudding is a weird combination. On the tea though - at 2 or 3, yes, but also at 8 am and 9 am and 7 pm and...all day every day, basically. Which gave me a thought! Do people use electric kettles in Mexico? Americans seem to be coming around to them recently, they were hard to find when I first moved here. Also if you're doing this with the mums too give them some biscuits with that tea! I know there's a Mexican biscuit that's a lot like our digestives, I just can't remember the name of the brand (but would know it if I saw the packaging). Kept thinking the dads would enjoy that tea more with a chocolate hobnob or digestive to dip in it.

[@TKID-17105]

It greatly depends where you are in the USA. If you're in the upper midwest (great lakes region), we do a lot of local freshwater fish (panfish, walleye, perch) in addition to cod (the cod is mostly flown in or shipped in frozen) for our fried fish. Perch/walleye are the predominant 'upscale' Friday fish fry species here. But our fish fry tradition is mostly Caltholic/Germanic in nature, so you'll see it paired with a sour coleslaw, either chips/USfries or, ideally potato pancakes, and marble rye bread. There will likely be apple sauce as well, but I won't address that, because I hate it. 🙃

[@gothgirl66673]

@@TKID-17105 Apple sauce with pork I'm already familiar with, and not fond of. With fish sounds even more unpleasant, so I suppose I'd just eat the fish and the potato pancakes. I've yet to try a freshwater fish that I really liked, which I suppose is the result of growing up in a variety of coastal areas and not having it very often (other than salmon, which I don't like, heresy from a Scot I know.) Love red tuna but definitely wouldn't batter and fry it. I've had fried mahi-mahi, in Hawaii, and that was great so some Pacific fish does work done fish and chips style.

[@goldenstate66]

When I eat fish n chips here on the West Coast it's always been cod.

Cornish pasties were made for the mine workers. They also made clangers, which were half savoury and half sweet pasties separated in the middle. The saying dropped a clanger comes from dropping your clanger and savoury and sweet being mixed.

[@jmWhyMe]

You didn't give them mushy peas with their fish and chips. Proper British fish and chips ALWAYS has mushy peas 😂

[@johnminnitt8101]

Agreed, didn't look right and if it tasted unseasoned wasn't right.

[@OwDoGaming-kx9jo]

lots of vinegar on the mushies

Absolutely correct, what a sin to forget the peas!

I wish they had other older traditional dishes like toad in the hole, shepherd's pie, I'm sure they would have liked them. There is a history to pasties, I wish they knew the interesting story behind them and some of our other old traditional foods. Jam roly poly, spotted dick, treacle sponge, we have lots of spongey puddings!

[@byronwoodleymaund1439]

I like these men, positive comments and genuinely seemed to enjoy what they were having, no mushy peas ? Did they have salt and malt vinegar on the chips ? Makes all the difference, I guess our pasties may be bland to their taste, as they probably are used to spicy meat, but altogether nice people.

[@danny1ft1]

I find it funny that Mexicans have more in common with us Brits than Americans.

[@periechontology]

What Americans and Britain have on common is that we're both critical and you can see it when we review each others food. Mexicans are more laid back and respectful of other cultures. You have to give them something really awful for them to bash it; at least the men.

[@rts3779]

Bro you don't realize how much that isn't true haha.

[@Estefania132]

lol no, We Mexicans have nothing in common with brits, we’re just really courteous and polite, even more so than Canadians. Some things shown in the video do genuinely look good, though.

[@ArizonaGunsDave]

As an American now living in the southwestern part of the United States, I understand when Mexicans have a craving to put chile', salsa verde or hot sauces like Tapatio & Cholula on their foods. I put those types of things on everything. I put one drop of Cholula on each bite of mashed potatoes. I don't even put gravy on potatoes anymore! 😆
