    And what is mash?
    Sounds like thick heavy soup. Or grits.

    Mash is mashed potato!

    Seriously?! Brits talking about having their mash and sound all posh but all it is is mashed taters?
    Americans need a way to make mac and cheese sound posh...

    What is this?

    United Kingdom 101?

    People didn't know mash was mashed potato?

    If we're talking about weird foods, what is up with biscuits in the U.S.? Putting gravy on them?

    It is VERY strange that someone from the US would not know what a scone is.

    Have you never been to Starbucks? What about any of the hundreds of other coffee and tea houses that you can find in a city of any size? They all have scones...sometimes a bit sweeter than an English scone, but essentially the same thing.

    Best with sausage gravy. Mmmm.

    Gravy is just a savory cream sauce. Biscuits are buttery bread. You've never dipped a breadstick in a creamy sauce before?

    I find Britain particularly beautiful in May. :smile: I would avoid July and August, far too many tourists around.
