beans on toast is actually very good and im american

i'm thinkin bout thos beans

>>13249972
How is it eaten? Are utensils used or do you just take bites?

>>13250003
take bites, but it's better on light toast, not soft bread unless you don't mind soggy bread and potentially making a mess.

having this for tea

>>13249972
Tried chips and butty, sucked

>>13250003
Knife and fork. I absolutely wouldn't try to eat this without utensils.

>>13249972
Depends if the bread gets soggy or not.

tastes good man

>>13250042
>chips and butty

>>13250141
>canned spaghetti
wtf spaghetti takes like 5m to make

>>13250141
I have never ate caned food outside of veggies and chilies. Might as well eat dog food you savage

>>13249972
I suspect that this is not traditional to Britain. It was probably an artifact of wartime 1940s rationing, more than having been a popular style of food before then.

>>13250186
You will never successfully make anything that tastes like canned spaghetti at home. Canned spaghetti is its own thing.

Aussie here . Can confirm that Aussies and Kiwis like baked beans on toast as well. tastes fucking good with a bit of hot sauce and cheese on it as well.

>>13249972
Most cultures that utilize beans have some form of starch they eat together with them so it isn't really odd.

>>13250551
How do you know if an anon is Australian? Don't worry, they'll tell you.

>>13250208
>you will never successfully make something disgusting
t-thanks anon

>>13250141

is this that old guy who makes fried bologna too? i recognize those shaky hands it's not the same kitchen though. anyone know his name?

>>13249975
This. With mustard. Busch beans though, not that tomato sauce Heinz bs. American as well.

>>13249972
Beans on toast is delicious though

>>13250812
Old fella is Featureman, that spaghetti video is Greg's Kitchen.

>>13250829

thanks a lot man

>>13250243
I really miss those pizzas. I make some homemade ones sometimes.

>>13250200
You’d be wrong.

>>13250200
Baked beans were never rationed.
The government knew people wouldn’t stand for it.

>>13249972
>ck """""threads"""""

>>13250920
That just supports his theory. A food that is not rationed during periods of food rationing ends up being a food that people frequently resort to.

>>13250796
Not even him, but he's right. You will be hard pressed to get the overly cooked, slightly slimy consistency of canned spaghetti right at home.

The british know how to make a stew and I can never fault them on that. When it comes to soups, the Scots have everyone beat on that. You can't honestly dismiss all of British cuisine. There are certain things that they are very, very good at.

>>13250828
I once had beans on toast for breakfast for an entire week. It was one of the best weeks of my life.

t. Americanus

>>13252034
My man

>>13250003
I would imagine you would fold it up a bit like a taco.

based depression meal.

American here. Just tried this for the first time. Only beans I had were pinto beans and blackeyed peas. Here's what I did.

Drained a can of pinto beans, microwaved half of it, put the rest of the can in the fridge. Toasted two slices of bread. Microwaved the pinto beans. Spread the toast with butter, put the pinto beans on the buttered toast, sprinkled it lightly with garlic powder, then added some dashes of Tabasco sauce.

My thoughts. It was good, surprisingly so. Very filling, it's a meal. I'm going to incorporate this into my diet because of how good and cheap it is. I'm going to try this with baked beans and refried beans and see how I like it best.

British cuisine

Corn in a shepherd's pie? That's an American bastardization of a British recipe. Look at the website it's from, an American one.

>>13252463
You're a bastardization of a British recipe

AND THIS

IS TO GO

EVEN FURTHER BEYOND

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

What Scot soups are you thinking of? I've lived in England and Scotland aside from a brief stint in Germany and I've never heard anyone talk about Scottish soups.

>>13252471
Are you 12?

I just had breakfast; nothing fancy. Toast with beef dripping and black pepper and a scone with butter and plum jam, washed down with a pot of loose leaf assam.

>>13252485
Cockaleekie and Scotch Broth for instance. Never heard of them?

>>13252493
Oh those things; they're just broad regional examples of the same sort of common soups and such you found all over Britain. Personally I prefer the Welsh cawl varieties of it. Sorry, I thought you were referring to something else. They're not bad, but it mostly comes down to who's making it rather than any one form being superior.

>>13252493
Don't forget Cullen Skink, aka the daddy of them all.

>>13249972
dont let the beans sit there too long, it will get soggy and thats disgusting. Better way would be to put the beans and toast seperate, then bite the toast and spoon the beans. Please dont do OP Pic. Thanks guys

Just had raw milk Brie on rock-salt butter for breakfast, 2French4U?

>>13252474
I've seen "evidence" of this but I still refuse to believe it's a real thing

>>13249972
>British people think pig's blood is food

>>13252777
Yes, it is. Even Americans before the 20th century used to make black pudding.

>>13252678
It's not really a real thing. It was invented in the 19th century as a 'health' food for people with wasting illnesses and was taken as a fad for a while by upper class women.

I mean really it's just a trick to try and make you think you're eating something substantial as by toasting the bread, you basically give it a different texture. I have never seen this for sale, offered before or such. I did however see at boarding school people making 'toast' sandwiches that were just three bits of toast lashed together with hot sugar but that's because there was free bread in the house kitchen.

>chips AND butty
Kek. If you're doing that you want to make a chip barm instead, still buttered mind (hence 'butty') and brown sauce on it.
