To all of you saying “this literally looks like poop”, “why are they eating boiled vomit”, etc, post the last thing you made and I’m sure I could come up with some shitty things to say about it.
It’s fucking very obviously a normal ass plate of potatoes and meat stew with carrots. Do the potatoes look a little bland? Maybe, but there’s stew to dip it in. Regardless, a well seasoned potato has a good flavor all by itself. The stew looks like every other homemade stew I’ve ever seen. It’s hard to make that shit look “pretty”, but I know y’all scarf shit like that down. Get off your high fucking horses. There’s plenty of other valid things to complain about with British culture, but making fun of their food is asinine.
As a german, it’s really the bread that makes me sad ;) I think the UK gets too much shit for their food though and people should shift the mockery a bit more towards Norway, haha.

Exactly, we don’t post photos of what we cook saying it is the best dinner on the planet. Though even that was probably a joke from the OP, and people are joking back. Calm down a little lol.
If it’s seasoned right that stew is probably absolutely banging. It looks great; good colour, good consistency, and you can tell from the softened edges on the carrots that it’s been cooked low and slow long enough really develop the flavours.
The easiest upgrade to this meal would have been to simply mash the potatoes after boiling them; a little butter and milk, some salt and pepper, and your bland boiled potatoes have magically transformed into something absolutely delicious.
How did you make and apply the brine? I tried it once and the results where despicable.
No their food is fucking trash. And as for that stew, yeah it probably came in a can, but I’ve eaten better stew out of a can than that. This is the kind of food that my dad would make sometimes when I was growing up. 35 fucking years ago. Because it’s what he had growing up, and he has like six older siblings. It’s poor people food. And that’s fine, but that doesn’t make it good. I will say at least it is not jelly eels or some other traditional nonsense British food.
