English food is unusual to many people who are not from England, but the English love their food. Britons may mock Americans for their super-sized portions, but that's tough talk coming from a country with food names like chip butty, where the five pence increase in the price of a frog-themed chocolate bar had the nation rioting and jello is somehow acceptable to pair with ice cream. Long story short, British food can be confusing to the rest of the world.

Summary:


8. Black Pudding: This definitely-not-a-dessert sausage made of beef suet, pork blood, and oatmeal, and was named a superfood last year for its high concentrations of potassium, calcium, and magnesium. Even though it’s one of the best elements of English cooking, it’s often called “disgusting” or “strange” by North Americans too weak to Google what actually goes into a hotdog (it's good, you cowards!)

7. Variety Is The Spice Of Life ... Or Not: Britain's reputation for bland dishes is tied to a whole bunch of different factors, but perhaps the funniest one is taste elitism. When Europeans started colonizing India and the Americas, spice got a whole lot cheaper for the average European. The aristocracy was not thrilled that the plebs were now eating the same food as them, and decided that unseasoned food was the way to go. Gotta love England’s logic!

6. Chips and Curry: Despite two hundred years of competition, the invention of chips and curry is somehow still among the least understood spins that Britain has taken on Indian culture.

5. Haggis: Making fun of Haggis is too easy to bother with, almost as easy as hunting the mythical wild haggis itself. The creature is native to the Scottish Highlands, and it has mismatched leg lengths, making it easy to hunt on flat ground and ... Just kidding, haggis is actually made from sheep's innards mixed with onion and oatmeal inside the sheep's stomach. But the funniest thing about haggis is how many Scots have fooled unsuspecting tourists with the aforementioned story. And by the way? The dish itself is delicious.

4. Mushy Peas: Britons claim up and down that this dish is delicious, which makes me wonder whether 1) they’ve somehow evolved culinary Stockholm Syndrome or 2) as I always suspected, Britain is an elaborate piece of performance art aimed at making non-Britons cry.

3. Fish Finger Sandwiches: British cuisine prostrates itself at the altar of carbohydrates, so perhaps it’s unsurprising that the humble battered fish finger has found itself a home within two slices of bread. This regional delicacy has sparked debate about whether it's cheating to use fish fancier than budget fish fingers. Oh well, I suppose it's still better than fish fingers and custard.

2. Toad-in-the-hole: Strange name, right? Well, it's a set of sausages nestled in Yorkshire Pudding (which isn't really a pudding. Yeah, it's complicated). Apparently, the name comes from the fact that the sausages look like they're little toads poking their noses out of holes in the ground, which is understandable if you've never seen a toad.

Now, here is a British sandwich that tops off our list of unique British foods!

1. Chip Cob: Also known as a chip sandwich, a chip a batch, a chip roll, a chip muffin, piece and chips, a chip piece, or a chip sarnie, the famous British dish is a sandwich featuring french fries on a buttered white bun. In North America, it’s known as “the sandwich kids make at family potlucks when their parents aren’t paying enough attention to stop them.”
