Mushy Peas...a curiously British food
 

but yet not actually all that bad. I just wonder what the reaction of the average American would be if it showed up on their plate next to their fries.

ah, have to love international cusine

I grew up eating something to that effect occasionally.. so for me, it's good tucker.

BTW what 'average american' do you mean? The fast food addict?

mushy peas = baby food

lol..almost but not exactly

well, I am not one to talk but when I was home this time the ability to put fast food on your credit card was a new thing

mine must have a hint of "snap" or NO GO

minted mushy peas with battered fish = delish.....

funny thing is up north, they wouldnt dream of eating fish and chips without out them :xomunch

mushy peas is further proof that english people have the worst taste buds ever...

what i never get is they clonised al these places all around the world and still talk about it till today yut tey still eat fish and chips when they could eat something better.. for e.g. humans like down here in NZ..

yep everyone in England eats nothing but fish and chips :xomunch

Idiot

I kind of dig them. They're mushy.

i don't know if i would call and english food 'cuisine'.

Yep, while watching football and drinking beer. Of course forgetting to brush their teeth before going out to watch the game.

Everyone also dresses like Austin Powers and says "shag", "arse" and "wanker" 100 times an hour.

We just ordered a heap of UK food stuffs from http://www.thebritishshoppe.com including a few tins of Mushy peas :)

Speaking of which.. Whatever happened to those Tyrozets? ;)

well, had you shown up to actually get them.....

see now, the minted variety I don't actually like that much which is odd since I do like minted peas

um...the number one dish in the UK is Chicken Tikka Masalla.

That said, there is nothing wrong with fish and chips.

I have some in my medicine cabinet.

Hahaha can you email them to me ;)

You shoulda given them to Jasun or Don to pass on LOL

shut the fuck up...

Ive been trying to get a couple of packets for ages, nowhere in the US sells them and its the only thing that works for me when i get a sore throat.

Just sucks we couldnt attend Phoenix because we got some last minute business, ah well i guess shit happens :(

You may want to look up the meaning of both yourself :error

oh ya and dont forget the cup of teas...........

i wouldn't have used them if i did'nt know what they ment..

oh please, I have a strong personal NZ connection myself but even he lives in London and drinks tea. Don't make us pull out sheep or hobbit cliches.

Hmm.. We talking about NZ or Wales now? LMAO

Lee

Works for either.

...see original reply. :error

I hate Mushy Peas- but Toad In the Hole is ten times worse
Not too mention "spotted dick".

Fucking gross-

If i can eat the flied termites and grasshoppers I had in Africa, I can handle peas ;)

DUDE!

Whats NOT to like about toad in the hole or spotted dick? Jeez, some of you people need to get taste buds ;)

You know thinking about it the one food i seriously do miss are Cornish Pasties.

Lee

hey dont disss sheeps...
they r a national icon..

i have spent many a lonely nites on the fields........................

fuck weres the 'wank sock' when u need it...

ah guess what i saw frodo in town yesterday...

3 important tips when trying to get near sheep for personal pleasure..

1) dont wear shoes.. makes too much noise

2) unzip ur pants before u approach sheep..

3) velcro gloves make the task easier (use ur imagination on this one)

somehow I think you'd take your dick anyway you can get it spotted or not..



:-))

I like my spotted dick with a creamy custardy sauce..mmmmmmm

I like peas but not mushed up ...bla

crimped at the side or on the top?


My friend over here is originally from Cornwall and said something to me once about there being a place in Michigan that makes a big deal out of doing pasties.

Crimped at the side of course :)

Regards,

Lee

Can't stand them :(

No... no... no... cream together butter and golden syrup and let it melt on the pudding. A little custard too is okay, but the syrup/butter mix is a must.

As to mushy peas, well of course the canned variety is only a distant relation of what the fish and chip "oyles" in Lancashire sold when I was a kid. Still my family over here get very upset if I serve fish and chips without them.

of course ;)

I found this place but think it is just for the UK - http://www.pastyman.com/

well, the last chippie I was in that sold them were using the same canned brand I buy so I figured I was okay. Chips with curry sauce isn't that bad either.
