Everyone is always mocking Britain's cuisine, but some of their food is good, like Shepard's Pie.

You know who doesn't get enough hate? The Belgians.

The Dutch (Netherlands) and the Belgians are not the same...

I have only known Belgians to admit to eating sprinkles on untoasted white bread with unmelted butter, I guess the dutch are guilty too.

Belgians gave us good fries and fat waffles though, for that, as a grease-besotted American I can't bring myself to hate them.

Good fries is an understatement.

Belgian fries are amazing !

Yeah, leave our cuisine alone. You haven’t lived until you’ve had tripe or a faggot in your mouth.

Edit: I feel this might need some additional info
