As a Brit, beans and cheese on toast is probably my cheat meal. I don't go overboard though and only have it once or twice a day.

Oh really? Awesome, I thought they'd use something milder. Sounds great, I'll try that, thanks!

Next time you make beans, simmer them in a pan for like 30 mins, with a massive chunk of butter. UNREAL

I have this weird fascination with the typical stew of beans and meat in westerns. They look like they taste good.

Every time I'm eating refried beans with bolillo (bread) and some valentina sauce I think about this scene and feel like a cowboy.

It’s interesting hearing the history of the spice trade. The English considered spices for the peasants, so that’s why their cuisine is ass.

To my personal experience, ass can taste better than british cuisine

You have not eaten beans the right way until you have eaten FABADA.

What makes FABADA so great is that it's also a hex code for a very sexy pink.

Spain is the country where you eat good. You probably have a fav dish from somewhere else. But with the insane variety of dishes they have, and even local specialities up to 5 per city Madrid and Barcelona have specialities per neighborhood even. They surely will nail one you'll like and the serving... They'll fill a fucking plate and you will leave it clean. Tortilla de papas con Jamón iberico de bellota... You ever taste that ham you'll probably die...

saw a giant transparent plastic tub of baked beans for sale at the entrance to a publix last night in Tennessee- meme not fooling anyone

I hate the Brits as much as anyone but baked beans beat refried beans any day of the week.

I mean this is the internet so no one is stopping you from making false statements. But also refried beans are just one type of Mexican bean preparation.

Depends on whether or not you count the whole historical British Empire.

No, colonies of oppressed people who were not afforded the benefits of british citizenry don't count.

Some daals are spicy, and could arguably be considered British?

Bro, refried beans look like diarrhea and taste like ass at least 90% of the time.

I've had some good ones occasionally but they're few and far inbetween. I don't even order combos at Mexican restaurants anymore, just gimme da tacos straight and save the frijoles for your dog.

Stop getting beans from diapers. Those aren't beans.

Stop gaslighting me as if I'd never seen any frijoles in my entire life.

Even professional food photographers struggle at making these look appetizing, and that's AFTER throwing a bunch of garnish on or around them.

Sorry, but you're still just polishing a turd.

I've never had borracho beans but I googled them and I'm intrigued. Beer and bacon are some of my favorite food groups.

You need to taste the lard. The host’s English is limited to “how many?”

The real places won’t even serve you cheese dip.

If it helps, this isn't my own picture. I would probably use softshell tacos as well because I'm not a barbarian.

What's wrong with hard shell tacos?

takes one bite and the rest disintegrates

That's what the fork is for.

Nah you won't, we'll just drink another cerveza and maybe a couple shots of mezcal and then we'll all be friends again.
