And then everyone clapped, right?

Oh fuck off.

I’m making a point about the international nature of food, and the way in which it relates to identity, and you seem determined to take it in bad faith to truss up your own weak argument.

Ok, here, have a win. You’re right. You are so totally right. Well done. Enjoy the glory.

Careful, that’s like saying that the guy who made it, who was born in the UK isn’t really British either.

Pretty much all food is imported.

As someone else mentioned. The Tikka Masala was invented in Britain.

Italian pizza, the most Italian of dishes, didn’t exist until America was ‘discovered’ and tomatoes brought back from the new world.

Same with the Irish and potatoes.

I think you misunderstand.

What I mean is the man who cooked the curry and served it to me and my two companions. He’s of Asian heritage but was born and raised in the UK.

Does that mean that he’s not really British?

What if he sees himself as British. Is he then culturally appropriating Asian food?

Because that’s the argument being used about the food too. That dish was cooked in a kitchen in Birmingham. It has Asian heritage too. But is it not the British food?

Dunno, have you ever had a curry in Birmingham on the mile?

I went with two American colleagues and one of them couldn’t finish his ‘medium’ heat dish because they said it was too spicy.

Starts off in English but really kicks in when it turns Welsh.

Is what the article I just posted says. Good summary.

My point is that manufacturers can throw all sorts of cheap stuff in that tastes like other stuff.

It’s not just leg bones though, is it?

The size of that hand in his shoulder.

Castration is an interesting theory, but it looks closer to a growth hormone cause. That said, there are around 3000 people alive today that are as tall without any such cause.

Good grief this is some boomer level meme. That joke’s as old as the Parthenon.
