Black pudding is good with a fry up breakfast. With SQUARE sausages I might add.
And let us pray that come it may (As come it will for a' that)
What is actual British food?
I know the Canadians have the misguided belief that ham is bacon, but what about the Brits?
Do you guys serve grits?
NOTE: I can only speak for Birmingham. It has 1.1mn people.
Birmingham has a handful of authentic Mexican restuarants. AND THEY ARE FUKEN AWESOME!
What's Grits?

I may not live in Mexico, but at least we border it.
Because it says "MEXICAN FOOD."
They also said so in the Good Food Guide of Birmingham. Produced by the BBC.
Oh My
Yes...I am not sure if I trust it...I'd have to try your Mexican food first to know and believe me I'd know. I've had the good shit. From Mexico. Off those little fucking carts.
And surprisingly didn't die from something. I owe it to my growing up on Mexican candy. Oh you delicious lead filled treats...
^Lots of people say they serve Mexican food in the states and let me tell you...half of it ain't Mexican (I have issues with watered down food in general really...Thai for Americans is sickening). Or is watered down pussy Mexican. Which isn't to say that it's necessarily bad tasting, but I like me the authentic stuff.

Grits is rough ground corn. Best flavored with cheese and a dash of salt. Not to be poured down Natalie Portman's Pants.
YOU NEED TO GET TO TENNESSEE NOW.
Grits are awesome. I'm not sure how to explain them.
All I know is that some homemade biscuits with grits and saw mill gravy makes for a fine breakfast.
Speaking of Scotland, one of my life goals is to go there.
Mom's side came over from Scotland around 1923 or so. I'm third generation descended from Scottish immigrants.
Which is why I have an adamantium liver in terms of drinking. And why hearing the last call bell pisses me off.
Oh My
These grits...they sound good...Tennessee...I must visit you. But not live there. FOR I DO NOT HAVE TEMPLE.

Hey now, they're building a Mosque in Murfreesboro, and there's only been like 2 or 3 incidents of Vandalism. Clearly it's a hotbed of multi-culturalism.
Plus it's not like they'll hang you. Unless you go rogue.
A trip to google tells me that "grits" is porridge.
And let us pray that come it may (As come it will for a' that)
That's promising. But I don't pray. Much. So that is of little consolation.
To the people who said they want to come to Scotland - why?

Maybe you could sing country music. Then go to Nashville to find fame, fortune and flooding.
Oh My
For food and to look at things. So same as everywhere else that isn't Arizona, Japan, or Thailand. To elaborate...The first is where my girlfriend lives. The other two I want to live in for at least a year. To get a feel of the culture first hand by being completely engulfed in it. I am Japanophilic and go to a Thai wat and am slowly becoming ...Thaiophilic? ???

Because Scotland's awesome, that's why.
Plus if the Scottish comedian Danny Bhoy is to be believed, the country loves drinking as much as I do.
But in all seriousness, it'd be interesting to see where my family came from.
To find the Loch Ness Monster.
That too; the fucker owes me and Sasquatch $2000.

Me too. Apparently my family immigrated from Scotland back a long, long time ago. We are descended from Scott-Irish back a looong time ago.
Probably pre-Irish Potato Famine.

This must be an American thing. I don't even know what our local is or if we even have one. I know what the shortbread tin version is, but that's a lot of nonsense to get money off touris- oh now I get it.

Oh My
I have Scots in my heritage. I don't feel particularly culturally attached to it though. Likely due to the fact that I had no culturally Scottish family members and such.

Hmm...Well so long as I can live in or very close to a Thai district...
...but wait. Mexican food. How large is the Mexican population? THIS IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW. I LIVE OFF THAT SHIT.
