The UK is a cold country, a lot of the more traditional food was designed to be heavy and use cheaper cuts of meat so families could stay full and afford to eat. A lot of potato, pork, batter. It makes sense for it to be heavier than good found in warmer climates. Both delicious- just different!

[@TheQuantumPotato]

A lot of this type of food also stems from rationing which started in 1940 as a result of WW2, but lasted all the way until 1954. My Dad was born in 1940 and he was 14 before rationing stopped! There was also rationing in WW1 and a few other times in British history before WW2. Imported foods and spices were not really available in large quantities.

-beans in the UK are different from elsewhere (even Heinz uses a different recipe there), and it shouldn't be so sweet. The batter on the fish is completely different to the UK one (which is crispier), and the fish should be so fresh and firm it doesn't have any hint of fishiness. The UK does not eat fish and chips with coleslaw, it should be mushy marrowfat peas. Also the chips (fries) should be crispy on the outside and soft inside. They shouldn't be brown. The Sticky Toffee Pudding should have molten toffee on top of the cake, both of which are very sweet and hot -but then offset by creamy custard to become melt-in-the-mouth. Biscuits (cookies) should be dipped in the tea until soft.

The fish and chips in this video is nothing like the fish and chips you will ever get from a fish and chip shop here in the UK. Big Ben is the name of the Bell inside the tower and NOT the tower itself.

[@nealgrimes4382]

It looked like a frozen dinner, everything should be made with fresh ingredients.

[@barneylaurance1865]

Big Ben is a nickname variously applied to the clock, the bell, and the tower. It's not an official name for any. The bell is officially called "the great bell". Nothing incorrect about it being used as a nickname for any of the three.

[@LAnt808]

@@nealgrimes4382Exactly! The point of British food is that we don’t have to drown our food in spices to mask the flavour of poor quality ingredients. Using frozen food just defeats the purpose. May as well have a pre-packed Tesco curry at that point.

Thank you for trying our food with open minds and respect! A lot of our food is about comfort and I think some of it is similar to Mexicans with our love of beans.

Looked good. The beans were wrong, should have been Heinz. And I'm pretty sure the cole slaw is American. It should have been mushy peas. Still very fun to watch.

I'm sorry she is right about the British drinking beer. British people drink as much beer as they do tea

[@Thurgosh_OG]

No, they don't. UK Adults consume about the same amount of units of alcohol per person, per year, as they do cups of tea. Beer is only one of the drinks consumed and therefore is, on its own, quite a bit less than the total number of Teas drunk.

8:00 Answer is none of them, Correct answer is Elizabeth Tower, Big Ben is the name of the biggest Bell inside the clock tower.

I was getting ready to hear them say the food was bland and lacked spice but was pleasantly surprised. Loved it when the lady said bangers and mash reminded her of Argentina! Not something I would ever expect to hear.

I don't actually fault them for not getting every answer about British history, culture, monuments etc, I mean if you asked a British person about Mexican history we wouldn't have a single clue, so they still know more about us than we do them.
