Oh shit, RIP in pieces me.

Is vegetarian chicken good yet? Plant-based pork and stuff feels mostly the way there but I've not had any fake chicken since I was a kid. It was like eating a cardboard cut-out of Linda McCartney.
I think the veggie burgers have gotten very decent recently (the GRO ones from the co-op especially), but i'm only having them with cheese, fried onions, gherkins and loads of mayo so I'd probably be satisfied with any old shit, but they're very...I dunno, meaty? Texture a lot closer to a beef burger than the old bean burgers.
I was also amazed that the vegetarian shawarma i got from asda the other week was actually pretty alright.
Medium-rare is the way to go on a burger, but gammons gonna gammon. If the tartare isn't going to kill you, neither is the pink burger.
I don’t dislike undercooked burgers on safety grounds, they're just unpleasant. Raw mince is disgusting.
Medium rare burgers just aren’t nice though in North America they always seem to have this thing where grease and stuff running up your arms is a good thing.

The fake Doner kebab is really good. Not sure if you had this stuff but it's tasty (not really lamb doner in flavour but that's not a bad thing) https://vivera.com/products/vivera-plant-greek-kebab/
If I could choose to watch any event in the world live, both historic and in the future, I think I would choose to watch Giggles being presented with a vegan Doner Kebab.
For me that would be the actual one they could get right as it’s heavily flavoured and the texture already lends itself well to something fake. I just wouldn’t want to pay the 35 quid or so that it would likely be.
Yeah, the vivera supermarket kebab stuff is quality, and the actual kebab shop vegan kebab things [they have these in Brighton, of course] are even better.
Still not a Green Lanes special, but good nonetheless.
Just for that you're getting extra lettuce.
The only burgers that you could even make pink in the middle are the thicker ones, and those are annoying, so that must make it bad.
There's an indie place near me that does burgers so thick you need shark teeth to get through them. Always nearly raw in the middle, too. They end up being a knife and fork job and even then it has to be a steak knife. Who is the market for that eating experience? Ponces, I suppose.
Yeah I think some people have this idea that those massively stacked burgers with a big fat patty in the middle look like what a 'gourmet' burger should look like but there's a limit.
The best burgers are layered up smash burgers with loads of fake American cheese, a bit of sauce and some pickles in a toasted bun.
I don't mind a medium - rare burger but I'm not really sure it adds much.
you really shouldn't be eating mince rare
After American 'cuisine,' you lot definitely make it sound like British food is the second worst.
Your country views wraps as a food group, lad.
'Wraps'
No country that gave the world pork pies and pasties could be regarded as bad for food.
British food is the second worse tbf but we've made all the foreign muck better (see Chinese, Indian).
2nd worse? There's people in deserts boiling goat heads ffs.
We do a decent job with the shite native ingredients available (zero spices, for example). The yanks have no excuse.
Isn't what most of the world outside of Italy thinks of as 'Italian food' actually American cuisine? Same for 'Mexican' etc.
What's your point
That it's not better than Fish and Chips. It's not even better than Scottish muck.
Goat's head doesn't kill you, even if you are retarded enough to think it tastes worse than oil.
In fairness, you’re expecting Taz to make sense. That’s the first mistake.
"Second worst" not "second worse".
Standards, people, come on.
Less worser.
BratWurst.
Most worstest.
Worcester.
Most Worcester.
Worcestershire.
Hard to beat a chip sambo (butteh for the English among you).
Food of the gods. A lad at Uni used to halve 2 battered sausages and put them in too. Mad Genius.
2nd worst food indeed.
Chicken Big Mac eh? Sounds interesting.
Dunno how I feel about that but I'll likely give it a bash.

I'd try that.
Please personally tag me in future posts of this type.
Junk food? Lorne sausage? 'New spring roll just dropped'? All of the above?
Lorne sausage, but I am open to more or less anything calorific.
That looks pretty good if you take out the sausage, bacon and black pudding.
So you want a spring roll filled with potato scone?
I'd probably eat that.
That looks great but he gets docked a couple of points for putting a big dollop of ketchup on the side. The uncouth bastard.
It'd be better with sausage roll type pastry.
Filo pastry sausage rolls are pretty good too, to be fair.
