Right now, here’s the rules:

  1. Posts must include an image or video containing food or drink.
  2. It must be unusual or cursed in some way. a. For example, something like Doritos Milk would be unusual, but normal milk would not.
  3. No AI posts whatsoever, and any images that were altered (Ex: Photoshop, Gimp) need to be tagged.

How to tag: To tag your posts, please prepend or append the tag name inside square brackets. For example,[OC] Foo bar baz or foo bar baz [Meta] would be acceptable. Multiple tags will require separate pairs of brackets, like so: [Edited][OC] foo bar baz

Here are the current tags:

This looks and feels so British I can't even.

Be careful talking like that. The people of Cornwall would beat the tar out of you for calling their food British.

Cornwall? The county in England? Am I missing something?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

The Cornish have their own bizarre nationalist movement

My question is, do you eat the heads or are they just decoration?

Huh, sooo this is a sentence...

The dish traditionally originates from the village of Mousehole in Cornwall and is traditionally eaten during the festival of Tom Bawcock's Eve to celebrate his heroic catch during a very stormy winter.

Tom Bawcock is a legendary character from the village of Mousehole, Cornwall, England. He appears to have been a local fisherman in the 16th century. According to the legend, one winter had been particularly stormy, meaning that none of the fishing boats had been able to leave the harbour. As Christmas approached, the villagers, who relied on fish as their primary source of food, were facing starvation.

Neat

That may be the most British thing I've ever read in my life.

Make it even more British by not pronouncing the h in the name of the village, because why would they say it like it's written. It's pronounced *mauzall, I kid you not.

And they're not even ashamed.

Would you not eat it? I've never had one but I can imagine it tasting great. Am British, obviously :)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

I would try it, but would definitely not have an expectation of liking it.
