I've never seen the word "tainted" used in a positive context, especially regarding food. I always thought it meant rotten or poisoned.

EXACTLY what I was thinking.   :puke:

Please don't talk about strange English foods. One show on TV was enough for me.

My dad's mother was from Scotland.....she was one of the worst cooks I have ever seen. My aunt learned from her, and she was just about as awful. Just pitiful. :(

Oh now, if one excludes (in my particular case) fish and mutton, English cuisine is great.

I am not buying Frank's premise that English food is great until he provides some examples.

I haven't been to England...but I have been to Ireland and the food was wonderfully good comfort food. I ate a lot of lamb stew which was delicious. I think I only had roast beef once or twice and it was cooked to death....I ate everyone's cooked carrots instead. The breads were delicious, the apple desserts were incredible....seemed like each place we went to, whatever they did with apples was better than the previous one. Fish and chips were good, potatoes were good. Those who drank beer and Irish whiskey were really pleased... :lmao:

English food was developed to be eaten by people with English teeth. Very few Americans, regardless their ancestry, fall into that unfortunate category. No matter how you slice it, English cuisine is abominable. Just the suggestion of calling a dish "spotted dick" should be proof enough.
