No foul language - i.e. French 🤮

Obviously satire, dozy wankers

Hate to tell you but I don’t think they have Cheetos or Mountain Dew in the UK.

Seems we have a Yank detected. What's the procedure?

Ignore it. It’ll either go away or stay and become so enmeshed in British culture that it’s accent will change to hide its origins, and it will truly grow to loath itself, and everything else, like the rest of us.

Pretty sure they have Cheetos at Tesco, right? Definitely not common though

We have Cheetos in Heron Foods, not mountain Dew though. Although, I do remember buying some a good few years back...

Oh sorry, how about Prawn Crisps and Irn Bru then?

Prawn crisps? Christ, you’re just flailing about.

Who the fuck eats prawn crisps?!??

People who are too fat to ride the train?

Prawn Cocktail Crisps. Big lad Stephen Nolan's favourite. Lovely.

We have both... But having experienced migraines from american mountain dew, our idea of it is hampered by pesky things like banned additives.

On the upside I now don't drink the UK edition as it tastes watered down in comparison! :)

Can't vouch for cheetos as it's been a while, but they exist here at least :)

I tried Irnbru again the other day. It was either a shitty export version with no flavour, or Barrs has totally fucked up the recipe with ‘improvements’.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

The latter. No girders.
