  Isn’t the UK also notorious for assuming it is the center of the world?

    We were. Because we were. But those days are very much over.

      I wouldn’t be so sure it’s just a “were” thing. You and I may have a more humble view of our homelands but I think we’ve both got to accept that there are some awfully myopic idiots residing in both of our states.

        Don’t really appreciate the pommy remark there skippy

        But yea, that happens. I meant the Empires over, not that some people refuse to believe it.

  Burgerland? C’mon man! If anything we’re bacon double cheeseburgers land!

  Just a burger would be like an Englishman eating chips without the vinegar!

    True. I also love me a bacon double cheeseburger. Shame we don’t have Wendy’s here.

  I’m not opposed to being called burgerland, but I’m wondering why burgers and not hot dogs or apple pie. I think we should start referring to all countries by their national food.

  • uienia@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Only Americans thinks that apple pie is a specifically American food.

    source

    • Today@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Apple pie, hot dogs, and baseball… There is no American food. Maybe fry bread?

  • Aggravationstation@feddit.uk ⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    True, as burgers didn’t actually originate in the USA anyway. Are there any foods that are 100% USA creations?

    source

    • Today@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      I’m not sure anyone has original food. Isn’t it all just the same stuff in regional flavors with available ingredients? We should just go by what’s popular, or perceived to be popular, which i guess does make us burgerland.

      Fried butter? (The fact that this is a real thing is worrisome)

  Make burgerland, it’s been how many decades and you still think they “should recall that once in a while”?

  Earn it.
