    Doesn’t look authentic to me. Those potato smiles look to have a bit of browning on them - ought to be straight out the big bag in the freezer and into an oven that’s not quite up to temperature, then served pale and slightly soggy. Also needs some brown sauce and a fried egg on that plate, otherwise it’s not nutritionally complete. Good attempt for a foreigner, tho.

    Not delighted.

    I’d eat it to be polite, because one time won’t kill me. Although, I’d probably regret it later.

    Since the pandemic, I’ve made all my own meals.

    that’s the worst tea I’ve ever seen

    I get that brits use “for tea” to mean “as a snack” which has fuck all to do with the beverage, but they still have literal royalty so I understand they’re a bit off

      Not really. Tea is the evening meal around 5-6pm. If your from a family that has “Tea” then “Dinner” is has around 12-1pm, and “Supper” is a late before bed something. With breakfast that made 4 meals a day.

      Trends have changed, I think because work schedules have shifted later. Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner are more common now.

      It’s just regional differences in dialect, tea is the evening meal. So some places have breakfast/lunch/dinner, others have breakfast/dinner/tea.

    By “tea”, they could mean “dinner” ( if they’re from Yorkshire)., so watch out.

    I’d be unsurprised since it’s likely me that put it in the oven.

    I recommend chicken strips over nuggets though.

    I suspect this wasn’t made by a genuine Brit because of the American portion size.

    In my house we call this kind of plate “the autism sampler”. Needs a cheapass miniature pizza from Asda cut into shabby wee hors d’oeuvres.

      A bit on the ultra-processed side might be one reason I can imagine.

          I thought I’d invented the sausage corral 25 years ago, but turns out it’s actually quite common. Cafes appears wimp out with a ramekin though.

        The beans are there to go on top of the smilies. Creating a partly soggy, partly crunchy beany delight.

      Repulsed is a bit of a strong word here but I would be underwhelmed and eat out if politeness. Ultra processed, but also heavy on the carbs and overall sweetish in flavor. I’d rather have a buttered toast and call it a day. But to each their own

    I think that would be an okay hangover meal. Not as good as a Full English of course but if you were unable to leave the house and had to cobble something together from what was available it’s passable.

    why would anyone, except perhaps a child, be delighted by this?
