Can't do you a blood pudding. Just can't. And the "Full English" might well
involve German sausages because that's all vots awailable hier.

Told the Scots to eat like the English...because their food is healthier! Yes,
indeed, I read the Beeb piece. Implied there might be something wrong with
deep frying pizza.

Can't stand oatmeal/porridge for breakfast. This is why emigration happened.
Ships got out into the Atlantic storms and the Scots went, "Thank goodness, no
more oatmeal, no more offal." So they came here and found that people put
oatmeal in crumble, and call it "crisp." To say nothing about hot dogs,
because nothing more need be said on that subject.
