    Agreed. I was raised by an English father and an English grandmother. There is a lot of amazing British cuisine. A good shepherd’s pie is heavenly. Sure, there’s also disgusting British food (I’m looking at you, Marmite), but there’s disgusting food in every culture.

    Also, British candy is so much superior to American candy. I can’t think of a single candy in America that comes even close to a Rowntree’s black currant fruit pastille. And the British know what licorice is. Americans think it’s that red shit and they think real licorice is disgusting.
