I like that there is some acknowledgement of the historical reasons for why British food is um... questionable.
Still, I find it funny that in the same situation, the French came up with some actually good dishes like escargot and onion soup
@@ThisIsTaco1 comparing to the French is unfair though, the french were known for their top tier cuisine before the war already, the british were never known for great food so expecting them to come up with something good in the war is unrealistic
@@katiequeen7225 it is fair considering their crop/livestock selection is pretty much identical (it wouldn't be fair to compare Japan to Turkey). These french dishes were came up with during famine in pre-medieval times. So the Brits had way more access to non-native ingredients and technology when coming up with those dishes.
@@ThisIsTaco1 That's not really true, these dishes were mostly made during rationing, where you could only get a certain amount of something, which was usually very little.
@@overthemoon34 are you refering to the british or the French dishes? If you're refering to the briths ones, you've got a point, and they wouldn't have such a wide access to ingridients.
Actually based on how they pamper Wagyu cows I wouldn't be surprised if they were treated with luxurious hand jobs with silken gloves by the caretakers
Caretakers see to them similar to how they treat their youngest
British nannies used to give a hand- nvm I'll go away
You’re absolutely correct. Personally my farm uses velvet gloves and coconut oil
That one british bloke who runs the pie shop? You’ve got no idea how gently he’s holding those pies!
Oh god I thought I escaped this joke
The mystery that we might not learn, ever...
Ngl, those pies and the mashed potatoes with gravy seems delicious alright.
Was that the guy from F & Cooke?
What Britain severely lacks in good original food, they make up for with their great confections.
What confections?
nahh
@@StuninRub Trifle, Bread and Butter pudding (Look it up dont just judge the name), Banoffee pie, apple pie, Brandy snaps, Bakewell tarts, Carrot cake. There's a lot of famous desserts from the islands.
@@NoFaceOrGun Most of those are pretty mediocre. Not exactly a flagship when compared to the other European countries like France.
They make up with it in pubs!!🍺🍺🍺
Jellied eel and stargazy pie are what I mention any time I hear someone from the UK aghast about "American canned spray cheese." (according to the USDA and Simmons National Consumer Survey only ~1.8% of Americans actually eat spray cheese but for some reason there's this annoying perception that it's even remotely popular here - so it's kind of our jellied eel).
I mean, every country has at least 1 disgusting food item or dish.
I think alot of people just make fun of American food cause it tends to be more unhealthy and is using stuff thats banned in the EU.
I get though, why it would be annoying as an american to always hear how disgusting your food is and how bad your country is from others.
@@Shyress disgusting? no unhealthy very true
Stargazy pie kinda look good ngl
In my Army time, I had a Exercise and the British Army supported the MREs ...
all Beans ...
no you Don't Understand ALL BEANS !!! For 2 Weeks.
Imagine 4000+ Soldiers and just a hand full of these Mobil toilets.
😰 and EVERYONE had for weeks bean's. ... Toilets turned into ☠💩☠chambers. 🤢
Goddamn 💀💀💀
1:59 "i love potatoes, boil'em mash'em stick'em in a stew"
"I see the denial" Lmao
0:54 Michael's face and this whole interaction was completely hysterical
Actually many Japanese restaurants I know in the US are ran by Koreans, not Chinese people. They may have Japanese staff in front but the ones I know got Koreans and Mexicans back in the kitchen.
Truth.
There's been a jellied eel van near my house for the past 25 years and I've never heard ANYONE recommend it............
Try buying drugs from there
Smoke the eel
Simple. They don't 'actually' sell jellied eels...
I used to think the same about people drinking in the morning until I started working overnight and got off work at 6am and having beers at 7am. So I don't judge people.
Hearing Garnt call Sydney his wife is indeed wholesome
Beans on toast is pretty mid but it is very cheap and very easy to make. However it's kind of is the starting point for a a bigger breakfast. Add a fried egg or some scrambled egg and it raises it, add some sausages and or bacon and again it ramps up the dish and then add in some black pudding some mushrooms/fried tomato and you basically have a full English.
Beans on toast by itself is never a go to for me, it's a I have limited time energy and I want something hot sort of meal; I typically will add a little cheese to the beans though.
Beans on toast with melted cheese on top is godly
@@caiscott-fitzgerald9097 the way to better is to use beans and sausages with cheese
Beans on toast is just the British version of American biscuits and gravy. It's a cheap breakfast that will keep you full for awhile.
"They haven't gotten to the depression age yet."
Boy howdy, should we tell the feller? Yeeehhhaaaaww
Conner over hear defending beans like he’s got steaks in the bean industry
I would absolutely eat just beans on toast without any extras.
Nasty
🔫
yuck
when the food is so good you don't mind getting food poisoning every now and then
My man go to where Sydney was raised, literally every county has insane alcoholism levels
Gotta try the bread sandwich frfr
Or French fry sandwich
As an Irishman Pretty cool to hear them talking about Ireland
Ireland's the homie everbody wants to be cool with.
There's a shitload of Irish songs written during the American civil war. Lots of Irish volunteers in the union army.
"May Erin's harp and the starry flag united ever be."
Say that shit and the Americans are instantly cool with you.
1:17 Mexico , Mexico does and avocado toast before it was popular too
Is it Mexican thing? I thought it was a white girl thing
'why do people not talk more about wales'.
Well maybe the hundreds of years of suppression of Welsh culture by the British government factors into it.
That’s definitely not the most, it’s basically all of British cuisine
Full breakfast slaps tho
Explains Shaun of the Dead's The Winchester
Beans on toast holds absolutely no appeal on any level.
I live in Alexandria in Egypt, the only Asian people I’ve seen here is an Indonesian family that runs an Indonesian restaurant (Indonesian food is so good btw) and one Korean at the passport office a year ago. My husband and I went a few months ago to this sushi restaurant that only had Egyptians working and eating there, but the food was INSANELY delicious!!! I think it’s unfair to judge an ethnic restaurant just because there aren’t any workers/costumers from that ethnicity there (I.e if there are little to no people from that ethnicity in your country) But I can see how it can be an indicator
We can't judge the deliciousness of an ethnic restaurant just from the ethnicity of the workers or such,because every place have a different palate so usually ethnic restaurant abroad have a tendency to cater to their locality.
But if your aim is authenticity,then going to a place frequented by expats might be good.
Btw,is the indonesian restaurant a padang one?
What about Marmite? That stuff is toxic!
Jellied Eel.... Huh.
Baked beans in England are very different to baked beans in America… I learned this there, Michael might not know of our baked beans
They are both kind of shit.
What's different about them? I've only had American canned beans.
I don't know why beans on toast are so controversial. It's just a good protein on toast. It doesn't taste bad at all. Add butter, bacon, cheese and broil it until the cheese is nice and caramelized and you got a delicious cheap meal in a pinch
Edit: and it's miles better than a grilled cheese or PB&J
Yeah
Easy to make and decently healthy
And tasty
I think it's just the name. "beans on toast" sounds extremely unappealing since all the name gives out is toast with some beans on it.
PB&J is better. hands down. PB&J for breakfast and PB&H for desert has been my life. a good fresh ground PB with a nice home grown home made jelly is the perfect way to start the day along side a glass of ice cold milk. That said, understand a large amount of the world is insane and doesn't like peanut butter and I will never understand that.
Spoiler alert we eat beans on white bread in America too at least in the south
A lot of food in the American South is "hard times" food (Great Depression, Slavery, Civil War, etc.) but it is *amazing* ! Why is the UK's so bad? Maybe it's the British "make due" attitude. Even a starving American looks at what he scraped together and thinks "how can I make this better." British parents during the Blitz, "Well children, I guess we're eating boiled cardboard again for supper, and by God were going to like it!"
Also though, beans are not a bad thing. I'm a Texan. We have beans as a main course. A huge pot of cowboy beans (w/ a chunk of bacon, a hambone, or some kind of salty meat to add flavor) with cornbread on the side is heaven.
Also, also, good refried beans are *the* mark of quality Tex-Mex food. You might enjoy other things more, but if they get the beans right...😗👌. You know you're in the right place.
During the Blitz, British people had a ration cards, which included a limited food for every household, as well as amount of seasonings like Salt, Sugar and Pepper.
It's hard to 'make this better' when your house is bombed flat and you're out of salt
@@mmmk5385 ,
Yes, but then the blitz ended just like American hard times. We took field greens that our grandparents *had* to eat, and added bacon grease and all kinds of other wonderful things. We took the poor cuts of meat which were practically sold as scrap at the time, and later turned them into an artform.
In Britain, your granparents *had* to eat jellied eel, so...you guys just keep making and eating jellied eel.
Eventually, the hard times that necessitate certain foods are over and you can elevate the barely edible into something truly great.
Unless the UK is *still* rationing salt, and I just didn't realize it.
@@jameswoodard4304 very few people in the UK still eat jellied eels 💀
To clarify, your comment originally was asking why didn’t people in the UK make their food better during the blitz, and the answer is because of rationing. Not because of their “make do” attitude, or because they’re not blessed with starving American culinary skills.
Just to add, you took your meat, and didn’t turn it into an artform but a continuously capitalistic, and deregulated market where there are 35% more salmonella outbreaks in that pork you talk about over the recent decade. “Bacon grease added to beans”, from American Pork that’s banned in 160 other countries.
If countries “hard times” necessitate certain foods, then what do “good times” show? American Good Times, turned food into processed junk food, and a obesity epidemic.
I had to comment on this because even though I’m not British, your initial comment was so patronising lol
Idk where he's going to restaurants, but beans are not served on the side at anything.
It's usually peas that's on the side of most dishes
Mexican food it’s usually a side
@@mooseboose656 beans what you have in a Mexican restaurant aren't what we have in Britain, they're completely different
@@the98themperoroftheholybri33 still beans
These guys trusting any review 4.5 lulz
beans on toast witha bit of cheese on top is fucking champion
i know Michel is westerner and all, but how he pronounce เรือนแพ legit make me luagh
I'd eat the pies n mash. Not the eel.
Interesting
The UK is just like Wisconsin, everything is paired with drinking.
Someone tell these guys that there’s people who don’t drink in the UK…
British food all sounds like crazy std’s “spotted dick” “jellied eel” “bangers and mash “ “meat pie “ 😂😂😂😂
don't forget the black pudding, I heard enough when I read pigs blood and saw how it looks like shit.
@@episode6691 imagine judging food without even trying it, it literally just tastes like pork and looks exactly like a black sausage with white specs of fat in it.
@@jacklobb3510 Don't really know where you got the idea of "judging food without even trying it" no shit sherlock it's a fucking sausage. It doesn't change the fact it looks like absolute shit. Must have hit a nerve speaking poorly about the UK's "cuisine." Don't come at me like that just because from what I assume is your country the UK has degraded so much into a mere shadow of it's former self.
I agree with all of them but meat pie!? WTF!?
@@wchan39 bro stay away from that chick I heard some one gave her meat pie😂🤣😂🤣
If you go to a mexican restaurant and you hear corridos from the kitchen you know is not gonna be good
Japan has no geographical space for agriculture so they min/max those few cows they have into Waygu Level 100 Cow
Also they eat jellyfish more than beef probably
As a self respecting Brit who eats beans on toast for lunch most days of the week like it’s a religion (and because I can’t cook for shit) I have to say don’t dis beans on toast without trying it with like Connor said with nice thick bread
ew
Wales, the sheep erotica capital of the world
Atleast its not duck embryo
I find Wagyu Beef overpriced and overrated, if I want a good steak or beef in general, I would just get Buffalo, it’s much tender, not much fat, and tasty as all hell.
I agree the fat in wagyu is just to overpowering. It lost its meaty flavor and sometime it's just to thin for the inside to cook in rare or medium rare which is my preference.

Jeel
Jellied eel is peng, leave it out you skets
Wow Connor with all that cope
Rice with beans is such a staple food in my country, that beans on toast sound like an absolutely disgusting crime.
I love how the video has nothing to do with the title
Try fika fish next time u cowards
British food is mid
Japan’s aesthetic?? Huh? I live in tokyo and I think it’s one of the ugliest cities in the world. Comparing it to Ireland would be offensive to Ireland
I have to agree, Japanese cities are a horrible mix of fake European aesthetics and modern architecture
