Go up to the nearest Brit you know and ask them if they like biscuits and gravy.

Tell them you love it (even if you don't) and that it is extremely popular in the US.

It's not good but it's not as bad as it sounds

Kinda plain and boring, people only eat it for the novelty

As an American, beans on toast is great. I think I even discovered it on my own as a child, without knowing that it was a thing people did.

Bear in mind that when we do this, it's with proper chunky chips, not thin and crispy fries:


It's a lot nicer than it really should be.

Brits/Aussies gradually underestimate Americans criteria for what qualify as french fries, what you call chips are usually called steak fries over here

Beef gravy, mushroom gravy, turkey gravy, sausage gravy, etc. #4 is what goes on biscuits & its cooking process isnt that different from the other 3 outside more cream being used IIRC

They are both gravy but taste different . Like thanksgiving gravy

plus they call biscuits scones

They call cookies biscuits

So it sounds like you're tipping brown meaty turkey gravy over cookies

Scones originated in Scotland in the 16th century, Americans call them Biscuits for some reason.

It's not even funny anymore.

Stores are empty, no fuel due to HGV drivers shortage and the conservative government is still denying Brexit is to blame

Meanwhile most of England applauds and votes Tory

Literally unironically worse and stupider than Trump

I think Brexit will go down In history as the exclamation point on the UK's gradual decline
