Eating American

British boys eating hot wings.

I’ve been seeing these reels on Facebook. I don’t know how to link them here, or I would.

I don’t follow them, they just sort of pop up. It’s a bunch of young British boys trying American food, which they seem to love. I’ve never been to England, but if these common everyday things are something new and exciting for these English guys, I shudder to think what they eat in England.

They love and freak out over Popeyes, Twinkies, pizza, cheeseburgers, root beer, lobster rolls, corn dogs, hot dogs (yes, hot dogs), pumpkin pie, a Thanksgiving dinner, hot wings, an everything bagel and bagels with lox, just to name a few. And iced tea. They don’t have iced tea in England?

All this food is what they are not eating in Britain. What are they eating in England that makes these common American foods so intriguing to them? I know they eat Pasties in England, a British pie thing that looks like an empanada.

Some years back, a neighbor exported peanut butter to France. I believe it was France. He would buy hundreds if not thousands of jars and send them by container to France, where apparently they don’t have peanut butter.

Things that make you go hmmm.
