Carbs nestling within carbs shouldn’t be OK, but for some reason it is.
2. Double decker chip butties.

2. Double decker chip butties.
Twitter: @BronteCoates
You can’t stop us.
3. And of course the toast sandwich…
en.wikipedia.org
We are a nation of people with no fear of carbs whatsoever.
4. Behold the Holy Trinity: lasagne, chips, and garlic bread.
Twitter: @katherinelanex
This is every single British person’s perfect meal. Every single one.
5. Putting beans on everything.
Twitter: @RosiePosieBTN, Twitter: @fattybiscuit, Twitter: @Tom_Kenyonn, Twitter: @kittykatelc
They’re so orange and delicious.
6. Literally everything.
Twitter: @stevegibsonuk
Nothing is sacred.
7. Or having beans with little sausages floating in it.
Twitter: @naivetactician, Twitter: @getbusyliving13
They’re so dirty.
8. Eating very thin pancakes which are crispy round the edges and flabby in the middle, with just sugar and lemon.
Twitter: @Cassielou1989
OK, this is not fucked up, but we are aware that American people think it is. What we say is: Don’t diss it til you’ve tried it.
9. Eating a meal out of a Yorkshire pudding.
Twitter: @DavidJEWood
They are better than plates.
10. Eating potatoes that have faces.
Twitter: @maattmurphy
Potato smiles are quite sinister when you think about it.
11. Covering fish and chips in curry sauce.
Twitter: @andrewdtanner
It’s a bit gelatinous but very tasty.
12. Eating a traditional curry and rice with chips on the side.
Twitter: @theseaside100
It goes really well together, sorry.
13. Iced buns, which are basically hot dog buns covered in white icing.
Twitter: @Montarnna
The savoury bun and the sweet icing are a match made in heaven.
14. Scones with jam and a fuckload of clotted cream.
Twitter: @thefensmag, Twitter: @adwoodsuk
There is a serious dispute among British people about whether the jam or cream goes on first.
15. While we’re on the subject, “clotted cream” has to be one of the grossest-sounding foods of all time.
Twitter: @Roddas_Cream
It is in fact delicious, especially the weird yellow crusty bit on top.
16. Fried bread being an essential component of a fry-up.
Twitter: @Craig_Abernethy
It’s greasy AF but so good.
17. Dipping “soldiers” in egg yolk.
Twitter: @porridgelady
Soldiers are hot, buttered, thin slices of toast, and they are one of the nation’s greatest foods.
18. And let’s not forget the glory which is the crisp sandwich.
Twitter: @blogaboutcrisps
Salt and vinegar crisps are best for this.
19. Dunking a Rich Tea until it is soggy but doesn’t collapse.
Twitter: @riversideprint
If it collapses your tea has a gross beige sludge at the bottom.
20. Spaghetti, in hoop form, served on toast.
We’re quite weird really.
