Oh God, I just googled 'jellied eels'; no offense to Anglos, but like just why? That looks horrifying.

No faulting for the Pie and mash though (cause I love savory pies), but this is a complete joke.

Also, I'm currently working abroad in the Middle East, and guess what: ooooh noooooo, people have replaced Salam Aleikum with good morning and hey how's it going, and rice and hummus with big macs and fried chicken. I mean I haven't noticed the local population being put out by it but I've really been meaning to convince them that actually they're supposed to be really upset about it because some guy on the internet is throwing a wobbly about it.

Look sometimes you eat cultural delicacies because they're delicious. And sometimes you eat cultural delicacies because you live on a marginal island at the end of the world and if you didn't you'd starve.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
