Scottish cuisine is a mark of total embarrassment to me. And no, I'm not talking about haggis. That's genuinely good stuff. Haggis, and cold water salmon, and stornaway black pudding. These things are terrific. But these are not things that Scots actually eat.

No what I'm talking about is what the average Scottish person considers food. Cheese and chips. Chips and gravy. Fish and chips. Chips and chips. Greggs pies. Sausage rolls. Irn Bru. Frozen peas with all of the above.

The overall attitude towards food in this country is that if it takes effort to make and isn't 90% batter and pastry, then it's some kind of posh wank food. People are genuinely proud of how lowbrow their food choices are. The amount of scots I know who wouldn't even know how to make breakfast that wasn't fried eggs and bacon astonishes me. The people in my office either eat vegetable broth day-in-day-out, or a sausage roll. 50 year old women eating mcdonalds for lunch 2-3x a week.

Same goes for Northern English folk. You guys are possibly worse.
