What even is that? I see fries, gravy, canned peas and a hot dog? Is that right? Because £4 is overpaying. Currently that's $5.31 in Freedom Funnbux. Definitely overpaid for that.

Na this shit is nasty. There are food carts that give out better-looking food and more quantity for around 5-7 dollars. This just makes me want to throw up.
Looks like the Brits were trying to follow a recipe for poutine, but transcribed it as "peas" instead of "cheese".
I thought he bought a box of vomit for 4 bucks. What you said seems to make a lot more sense.
Fuck yeah poutine.

Does all British food look like literal diarrhea or only the British food that gets photographed?
The cameras lie to you. It looks way less disgusting when you are about to eat it!
~~but yes, it does~~
It turns like that right before being photographed
I can't lie that looks genuinely amazing. Yes I am British, how can you tell?
I like that we all knew exactly the country
Luv me mushy peas, simple as

Is this what yall think poutine looks like?!?
Canadadians, shield your eyes!!!
British food gets a bad rap but I don't really get it. Fried fish, potatoes, roasted meat, cured meat, meat pies, lots of puddings and sweets, not to mention the Indian food. What's not to like? I'm going to the UK in October and I'm pumped for the food.
I've heard it's because they invaded every country on the planet for their spices and decided to use none of them
No, you're thinking of our grammar.
I was going to defend us by pointing to how some of the most popular places to eat here are focused on spicy foods (curry houses) but when I thought about it more... you're right :(
The most popular dishes there are usually the less spicy ones (but they taste really nice and would probably taste even better if they were more spicy)

If you're bringing cash, bring it in 20s and below. 50s aren't used much at all as they arouse suspicion - many smaller places will flat out not accept them.
Hope you enjoy the trip :)

Those peas look like they came from can in a silent film and were colorized for this photo.
Pretty sure £4 is below minimum wage, especially since you’re exposed to such hazardous materials?
They should be getting way more for taking care of this monstrosity.
When you get a takeaway in the UK and it comes in these little containers, it often looks like gross slop. I recently got a taco+cheese chip, and it looked like pure vomit.
Doesn't put us off eating it though. Normally tastes good. Our local chippies and curry houses are supreme.
Ya got yummy sausage. Ya got gravy. Ya got yummy deep fried starchy goodness to soak up said gravy.
Why the the fuck would someone throw peas into that heavenly mix?!
Imma be real, peas in gravy are delicious in the same way corn is in mashed potatoes. Adds a sort of poppable texture that just goes well with the flavor

Holy shit ... 4 pounds for the worst diarrhea and wet bean farts of your lifetime. What a steal.
I want to make a joke about "shitpost", but my beloved chili is right there with it. I suspect this might be mouthwatering to the intended audience.
That looks like the supper we had when the dole ran out.
Who knows what evil lies beneath?
What is that?
Microplastics and peas. Very traditional.
Saussage, chips, peas and gravy.
Why do the British eat like the Nazis are still flying overhead?
Because we have less money now than when they were flying overhead. We do eat a little more now though, we have really bland Indian food!
All that bloody history building an empire to collect spices and foods from around the world … how does this even count as food.
bland Indian food? Especially that. That’s a crime against one of the worlds great culinary traditions
