OK, food shows. Like Diners, Drive ins and dives and Outrageous Food etc.

i havent watched television since the saints went to superbowl lol i have no idea about those shows... but i know american food cooking shows are terrible.

people like rachel ray are not even professional chefs, they are celebrities but people like her cant even bake. How can you be on tv do cooking shows and you cant bake? lol

cant stand the new breed of celeb chefs,... i spend a lot of time in the kitchen but i dont watch those shows. as you said they cant even prounounce ingredients correctly and makes americans look dumb.

Everyone calls it wuus-ter sauce, so no your point doesn't really matter.

By the way, I prefer knickers.

:1orglaugh I watch plenty of English TV still so maybe that helps. One thing I like in Canada is most people know the accent. I have only been asked if I'm Australian once :1orglaugh Someone thought I was Scottish aswell for some reason :Oh crap

I havent had the stuff since I was a kid anyway, heh. Speaking of culinary.. it's supposed to follow the "cu" rule of english. Making the primary pronounciation like "kyoo-linary". You almost never hear that though. Topics for dinner table arguments.

If that was true, this thread wouldn't exist, let alone be nearing page 2. :2 cents:

Noted. :upsidedow

Can't wait to tell my wife that one of the major ingredients in worcestershire sauce is anchovies.

Must also remember to mention that the onions and garlic sit there for 2 years before they start.

Don't even get me started on the other words Americans pronounce incorrectly.

"Derby" , "basil" , "herb" , "en route" , "niche"....

whoresters share

Sounds like an obscure sauce. I have not heard much about it. Perhaps it depends on the taste of the individual.

I missed "English" out of my sentence. I meant to say: Everyone English calls it worcester sauce:

Anyway there is a great one here in Canada (probably US aswell)

Instead of Corriander, you have Cilantro (same thing) But rather than having Cilantro Seed, you have Corriander Seed (same thing) what the hell is all that about?

Haven't we done this one already?

Worcestershire = a place, pronounced wuh-ster-shire

Worcestershire Sauce = anchovy based sauce pronounced wuh-ster sauce

I love it when Americans try and argue that an English pronunciation of an English word is wrong. Most amusing.

you sure you haven't had it in years? Most burger recipes I know call for it.. and of course there is the venerable Bloody Ceaser.

gordon ramsey shows are gigantic in the US and are US based so that would be an american show and most of them are quite good. Actually makes things people would eat and order.

'cajun cooking' is american, or do you still see Louisiana as owned by the french?

The Queen would NOT be amused:mad:

She prefers Sauerkraut.

thats cause she married a german... (i think)

Pretty sure anyway, I havent eaten out including any fast food in this millenium. When I do a burger it's usually just garlic and onion in the beef, but it's rare I make them.

When I was a kid though the family always used it and made fun of each others pronunciation of it as most do.

Greek:winkwink:

So what do you call Worcester, Ma? That leaves out the entire last syllable.

Dude.. now I really really want some French Fries, and they don't sell those down here ! :Oh crap

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :helpme

We call it Worcester... :warning :upsidedow
