Engl*sh food is either cultural appropriation or a crime against humanity
Classic British food is great. Inb4 jellied eels or beans on toast.
Beans on toast is a top-5 earth lunch dish and I'll fight anyone who says otherwise.
It does sound nice actually.
British pancakes are just a slightly thicker crepe because it gets flipped. It's just a poorly made crepe, dude. Same ingredients cooked almost identically.
That sounds good though
Yeah, cause crepes are good. I just don't think the br*tish should be allowed to pretend they invented something that they totally didn't.
Nah
I'm dangerously addicted to the tesco ready made pancakes that I can just throw into the microwave then drown in lemon juice. Sometimes I'll just eat an entire pack in one go... Which is like 1257 calories 
Why not add like a little bit of lemon juice to a much more butter and have a much more better pancake
Lmao your description of shitty english pancakes is fucking perfect.
Hae ye tried one, bruv? Seems they're fine...
They taste good but the description is accurate.
I guess so. Uh, what's 2-ingredient about the recipe? Seems like it needs more than 2 actually...
I had a coworker act surprised that you were supposed to add eggs and it turns out he was literally just pouring a mixture of flour and water into the pan.
Fucking helll!!!
(This is not the medieval or pirate era, eggs and sugar are not a rare luxury food item anymore. Evolve or die, - To your Brit count friend)
Are British pancakes similar to American pancakes?
Like, fluffy?
They are very flat.
No, they're basically like a crepe
Wait, it's Shrove Tuesday?
It's not too late. Treat yo'self.
I'm going to stay out of this struggle session since I eat thin pancakes that my friends call crepes but they're pancakes to me dammit
Scottish Pancakes are much better. Fluffier and fuller more like American pancakes but probably less corn syrupy and smaller.
All pancakes suck. Crepes are cool cause you can put food in them. I refuse to eat sugar flour and water as a meal.
No, you will eat the pancakes, and you will like it, you toton de calice de tabarnak!
I'm certain crepes were brought to England in the Norman conquest but the English decided there was too much going on there and made pancakes.
Wait, how is that related?
You said I must enjoy the pancakes and swore at me in French, I took that as a you'll adopt the American and English crappy pancake and like it joke. My response was going off thar assumption and I made up a fake history of English pancakes being based on them perverting crepes after they were introduced to britannia during the Norman conquest. I thought we were riffing.
Oh okay... I guess I was kinda half joking...
Edit: that being said, confusing Canadian French with Parisian French, is like confusing the Omaha landing as being done by the British...
That being said, I'm not Franco-Canadian, I'm just playing a character that curses in Quebecois french...
I don't really get why you're confused tbh.
How would you mix up crepes and pancakes? Those are entirely different pastries-
looks up English pancakes
What the fucking hell is that? Can TERF island make a single variety of food that isn't either complete dogshit or a worse version of something they stole?
