Now to be honest I’m not too enamored with American food as it is but with names like the above for some dishes it’s a wonder anyone is.
So what are re-fried beans, beans that have been fried but fried more burnt, or maybe fried but not in anger then re-fried with honesty?
Elvis died on the loo, he was fond of grits, no bloody wonder he’s dead eating all that grit must have turned his bowels to concrete.
And brownies well, I know these are meant to be little cakes, but what I associate with brownies isn’t dainty little cakes it’s what Elvis was depositing behind when he died from excess grit intake.
I don't eat re-fried beans. Why re-fried?. Did they mess it up the first time around?.
Grits sound too close to Brits. I want to eat half of them but since this nation is not as segregated, you never know what you are gonna eat. Specially in today's world.
Brownies seem too racist. Plus I don't wanna be eating my own kind. That's like cannibolism (sp), no?
Well you just summed up everything I needed to hear on Re-fried beans, grits and brownies.
Innit in this sense mean't what else is there to say I completely agree.
Innit outit shake it all aboutit, innit.
What about waffles, there's the sweetened pancake variety and then the potatoey fried ones, then the savoury pancakey ones, I've got less against these but never know what I'm getting. What say you on these?
This is great it's like having my personal food description calculator/translator or sommat innit, and while you're at it what's a flapjack I've always known it to be a sweet oat confectionary eaten by school kids when they can't afford proper sweets?!
pure comic relief I just had a brownie for breakfast can you believe, actually I had a bite and then I felt like throwing up so its still sitting here.
