United Kingdom chat thread V4: lamb rogan josh, £3 meal deals, and brexit - General

Sainsburys does have chocolate chip digestives though...

Sainsburys stock Apple Tango tho [editline]9th January 2018[/editline] Besides that yeah they're shit; I just use their once-a-year £15 off £60 online deal.

I find Morrisons to be a nice middle-ground

I go asda most of the time because I can nearly see it from my house, when we do a proper shop we go to aldi. I normally go tesco for my lunch, but I rarely get a meal deal cos I'm a pig and normally get two sandwiches and a pork pie

So lads, how do we avoid becoming Americans?

[QUOTE=Xanadu;53040015]From the sounds of it, avoid ASDA. And perhaps KFC.[/QUOTE] UK is the only country where KFC is actually good though.

KFC always gives me the runs

[QUOTE=PyroCF;53040175]UK is the only country where KFC is actually good though.[/QUOTE] I don't know if this speaks for the quality KFC in the UK in particular, or surrounding food joints being somehow worse than KFC. But I will assume the former.

[QUOTE=DatHarry;53038983]sainsburys is the only big shop near me and it fucking sucks, everything is overpriced and all their own brand food tastes like shit vs tesco[/QUOTE] Majority of own brand food comes from the exact same factory and only the wrapper is different. There have been many times where I've been putting out a box of biscuits, and it's got the majority Sainsburys, then a pack of Waitrose and a pack of ASDA in there.

[QUOTE=PyroCF;53040313]Our Mcdonalds is pretty bad even compared to mainland Europe, then again Mcdonalds is just bad all round.[/QUOTE] Maccas varies widly it's insane. In Australia and Dubai Mcdonald's was super, super good, but in the US it made me spew in the carkpark. UK Mcdonalds isn't too bad, but could be better.

Most of the stuff doesn't even have much flavour and you always feel hungry about an hour after.

All fast food in the middle east is pretty fuckin banging. If there's one thing Arabs love, it's their food. Walk into a McDees and you can spend £3 on a supersize meal where a Big Mac is actually fucking massive, and not the piddly little versions we have in the UK. will never forget how disgusted I was when I bought a Big Mac here and saw how tiny it was.

We would never join the United States. People don't even want to be in Europe and Europe is much better.

[QUOTE=Northerner;53040786]Already been under the influence of the US for decades, The US now is pretty much like when we were an evil empire.[/QUOTE] Maybe politically but the two countries are diametrically opposite in terms of culture.

[QUOTE=PyroCF;53040313]Our Mcdonalds is pretty bad even compared to mainland Europe, then again Mcdonalds is just bad all round.[/QUOTE] European Mcdonalds is miles better Get me some of that apple compote :dance:

done it bois just finished a video essay that was due in at 4pm today. been super ill as fuck and had some financial issues this month so I couldnt start it at all with a fresh mind. This morning at 6am, got up, started researching, wrote up a script; then edited the piece together (8 minutes worth) and submitted it about an hour ago. time to be a lazy ass and play games for 2 days before I head back to southampton

Finally decided to book an appointment with Santander to talk about credit cards and to my surprise, they're not as scary as I thought they would be. I was put off for so long cos my friends were saying how much in debt they were and they didn't know how they operate. Kinda wished my secondary school would have talked to us about banking and credit cards. Damn it, could have been raking in that sweet sweet credit score for years.

I'm surprised BBC 6pm news is covering the Logan Paul thing.

Got my driving test tomorrow. My plan is: 1. Handbrake turns 2. Racing lines 3. Doughnuts in a car park
