I’m originally from the UK but I’m now in Canada and I hover around some groups of people from the UK online and in person and I swear the Brits are the most whiny people to ever move anywhere. These people genuinely move to places and expect it to be exactly like the UK and when it’s not they shit on the country. Idk if it’s some leftover colonial mindset or something that hasn’t been removed from their psyche?

I’ve heard people complain that there’s no British cream (like the standard whipping cream which exists but is called something different) in stores, British bread, British seasonings, very specific type of curry called the brimingham balti which I don’t think I’ve seen outside of northern England. Amongst many other things and it’s absolutely mind blowing

Genuinely makes me embarassed to be in anyway related to these people. Anyone else get absolutely sick of your old countries people?

    I actively avoid other Americans when I am outside the States. Especially American tourists.

    But I have to ask. What is “British Seasoning”? I’ve eaten plenty of food around the UK, and I am convinced the British do not use seasoning. I actually waited in a Tesco seasoning aisle to see if anyone ever bought any, and now I am convinced that aisle is there either for decoration or because of a government mandate of some sort.
