Default Noooooo! I think British bacon might be better than Canadian.

So today, I had my first bite of British bacon.

I've tried European bacon, which just isn't as good as peameal and North American bacon, so I was wary to try British bacon.

It is the most delicious, succulent, fantastic bacon I have tasted ever. The Brits might not do the best sausages or foods, but British bacon wins.

I must confess this.

C'mon, face it. British and Canadian bacon is ham. they can't stand how we burn it to a crisp. But in the end it's all PIG.... And really it all tastes good. Well said, LostSheep.

Lets face it, you can't beat our chocolate either The American chocolate is greasy and leaves a nasty aftertaste, like vegetable oil.

And you cannot get REAL fish and chips in America. The ones that are available are disgusting - or at least the ones I found.

Having said that, one thing America does beat us in is food portions. I think I was visibly shocked when I visited a fast food restaurant and realised their small portions were equivalent to our large portions.
