Hey, I've seen Britain's really disgusting foods and while those foods were absent from the show, they are still in the same league as bangers and apple pies.

Even food I do like is a little rough, meat and potatoe pasties are fucking lovely but it's just mush with cubes of veg in.

'Bangers' make me laugh, becuase they tend to not have enough actual meat in them to legally be called sausages. Also, practically every culture and country has its "disgusting" foods. The French eat frogs, the Chinese eat chicken foetus eggs, the Japanese eat deadly poisonous raw fish, the Scandanavians let their fish rot before eating it, Vietnamese eat snake etc. (most of which I'd eat/have eaten quite happily) On the scale of things, a little 'mystery meat' isn't that bad. It just grinds my gears when the "British food is bland and terrible" sterotype is trotted out, becuase it's pure bullshit.

This does not look tasty at all. I mean scrambled eggs and christmas pudding in same thing? no that wont work. other than that, i dont find canned food disgusting or anything, but i rarely eat it myself. this brings me to another point:
calling it gammers dinner is kinda insulting. it implies gamers only care about eating as fast as possible and getting back to player which is not true. For example i always cook my own food myself and never go for the pre-made heat up food. heck, i make my own pizzas.

Make it a self-heating can ala MRE and you've got a customer!

This is the perfect lunch in my ongoing quest to screw with my coworkers.

They're already getting accustomed to the kimchi, and I need something new.

Look up some scandinavian food, that one will surely screw with everyone around. fermented shark livers for example.

Leave British Food alone. Yorkshire Pudding is awesome!

"boiled-dry, overcooked mush"? Clearly you've never had Sunday roast at my place. Curry is all very well but when Sunday comes round nothing beats a cooked to perfection leg of lamb an assortment of roast (not boiled) veggies, gravy and taters. With a spot of mint sauce or jelly depending on taste.

As to the Christmas Tinner, thanks but no thanks

Amen, brother.

This (along with the bad teeth thing) is probably one of the more annoying stereotypes a lot of people in the U.S believe. They seem to think we're stuck in a Victorian London timeline where everyone wears a top hat, speaks the Queen's English and regularly feasts on pickled eels and tripe.

Stuart Ashen so need to do a review of this. =)

I recently became acquainted with his videos, and I heartily agree. His last "Christmas dinner in a can" video was hilarious.
