In Partial Defense of British Cuisine

'Cathedral you r-slur, I'm not reading all that'

Some choice quotes:

Yes, I, a Frenchman, believe that British cuisine is unfairly maligned

thanks to post-war Beveridgian socialism, Britain had food rationing for longer than any other Western European country. The reason those awful tinned beans feature so prominently in British pub food is because for decades they had little else.

See? We were subject to decades of pinko commie scum leadership, it's not our fault if it wasn't for Tony Blair you'd be sucking us off over some mid bread like you do with italians

anyway this perfidious frog goes on to just fellate his own culture for two paragraphs and then he says

The first point is that British cuisine is really good. Britain produces great produce, and it has great peasant traditions that have produced excellent dishes such as pies, roasts, and so on. The lack of a tradition of high refinement and clichés dating from Britain's era of post-war malaise should not obscure that fact.

And finally: the French and British are cousins. Friendly ribbing is all well and good, but in an era where the very survival of Western civilization is uncertain, recognizing our respective merits is more important. So, as a Frenchman I say, two and a half cheers for kidney pie and warm beer.

Thanks frenchie, here's my response
