Mainly he told me about the Bacon Roll,
which is apparently just Canadian bacon fried and put on a crusty roll with butter and ketchup. WHAT THE FUCK. EW. How is that acceptable as a meal? Or as a sandwich? It's supposed to be like hangover food or something. I'm pretty sure if I ate that on a day after heavy drinking I would vom all over England. But Mike said everyone was all over the bacon roll and his cab driver was all "YOU GOTTA TRY THE BACON ROLL (OLD CHAP)!!!"
Look at this other picture of "English breakfast":
Ew I'm sorry no. Just ew. Why did you ruin those eggs with all that nasty, England? Another popular breakfast food is black pudding, which is made from dried pigs blood and fat. Served for breakfast. To reiterate, EW.
There is so much poor quality meat slathered in salty gravy there. And what's with warm tomatoes? They give me the willies. What gives, England? Could you maybe try not being so lame and eat less like poor people?

i'm sorry but fried green tomatoes, yall. america america america.
yeah the bacon rolls are weird, they're called bacon baps or stotties over here. but i still say back bacon is better, so keep chewing your chewy ass fat and we'll continue to eat meat over here.
it IS weird that they don't refrigerate eggs.
it's also weird that they consider baked [or jacket] potatoes an entire meal just because they smother them with baked beans.. weirder still that they call them jacket potatoes.
but you need to experience cheddar cheese here. cheddar and tomato chutney. it's a revelation. and yet such a simple combination.
lovely.
More a Scottish thing, but the deep fried Mars Bar is something worth trying when you're over here. Honest.
Here's cooking guru and national darling Delia Smith showing everyone how to make one...

Mate, I'm sorry, but have you tried American chocolate? It's crap is it not? Oh yeah, and what's that about blood pudding being a popular dish? I've never eaten one, and I've never seen anyone else eat one, in fact i don't even know where you can buy them! So it's not really that famous to be honest.
But, putting all that aside. What food is America famous for, apart from slopburgers, sorry, hamburgers? Oh yeah, and what was it that one famous American said?
"If you're going to America, bring your own food."
But according to an American mate of mine, who incidentally prefers English grub to American food, you basically just add mustard and tomato sauce (sorry, American sauce) to anything to give it flavour, oh, and apparently Tabasco sauce is supposed to obliterate the taste of most things too.
When all's said and done you can carry on eating that over-flavoured, dripping-in-grease American junk that you guys love so much, and we'll be happy eating proper bacon, eggs from the fridge, cottage pie (without Tabasco sauce), fish and chips (real chips that is, not crisps), and chocolate that doesn't taste like it's been through the wash 14 times.
