Always amazes me, without sweeping generalisations, how Americans struggle with a knife and fork

Lamb is very common here, with mint sauce especially. Absolutely delicious.

The internet is amazing: here I am a 67 year old Englishman entertained on a regular basis by a "Typical, average American" young man who seems to delight in any aspect of our tiny island nation: it's so entertaining. Keep up the good work Tyler ;-)

Clotted cream is a special cream which has been heated and cooled and has a butterfat content of 55%. It is sublime. No we don't have this every day. It's s special treat. Scones are not like English muffins, they are more like American biscuits, but sweet.

Shepherd's pie is made with minced lamb and vegetables. Cottage pie is made from minced beef. Fish usually cod or haddock but they will state your options mushy peas is the green glob but delicious. To be honest i put the jam 1st as the cream will sits on it nicely x

Cornish pasties were originally developed as a complete meal in one for miners, who wouldn't have the time to make it to the surface to eat. There are several nasty minerals associated with tin mining, such as arsenic, so the crimped crust was designed to allow the miners to hold the pasty without poisoning themselves. The small piece of crust they held was usually discarded for the same reason.

Mushy peas are made from marrowfat peas, not garden peas. They have a different taste and texture. Delicious !

English muffins are nothing like scones. The cream is a clotted cream, Google it. A cream tea is generally a treat, afternoon tea usually involves sandwiches made with very thin white bread and then cakes accompanied with freshly made tea - served in bone cina cups of course. Pubs also do 'Bar Maels. Shephers pie is basically minced lamb cooked in a thick stew. Lamb is common worlwide - it's delicious, cottage pie is smimilar but wqith beef mince. The fish is Cod or Haddock usually coated in batter, not breacrumbs, the batter is better made with lite beer. Mushy peas (made with special peas) are often used as a substitute for guacamole. Listening to your comments it seems as thoughAmericans are missing out on a huge range of delicious food and meals which are eaten worldwide.

Lamb is very common in the UK & it tastes BEAUTIFUL🤤 😍

Hello Tyler. Nearly every village here in South Wales has a fish & chip shop, also known as a “Chippy”. They rarely have a cafe or restaurant but will have a chippy before everything else. Next will be a Chinese or Indian take away! They may even run a combined establishment. Fish enclosed in batter and deep fried. The batter is designed to totally enclose the fish. The batter allows steam to develop when the fish and batter are fried. The batter allows the fish to be steamed so its not greasy, the batter will be. Good chippys will always sell or give away the batter scraps and make a great addition to the chips. In Scotland you can find chippys selling strange battered foods, battered and deep fried Mars bars, pizza are regular. Cream or jam first is a apparently the difference between a Cornish or Devon cream tea. Really an argument that makes good tourism arguments! Many traditional UK foods were from recipes made when historically we were a poor community. Bits of the carcass of cows, pigs and sheep not usually eaten or sold will be turned into edible delicacies. Real hearty food, ideal cold weather food. What you would call a Convenience Store we would call a Corner Shop. May not always be on the preferred corner (Double frontage) but usually in a terrace, or row, of houses.

The crust on fish and chips is batter. You make the batter by mixing flour, water and a pinch of salt and pepper. Some might also have a bit of beer in the batter (so the batter will be aptly names beer batter). Then you dip the fish in the batter to coat it and then place the fish in the deep fat fryer.

In a restaurant the fish depends on the chef. In a chip shop you can choose between Cod, Plaice and Haddock for the more common meals, but then different chip shops will have various other fish depending what is local to where they are.

The cream teas depends where you’re from. The Devon way is cream then jam and the Cornish way is jam then cream. It’s clotted cream and I’m Cornish way all the time ❤ people don’t usually have them every day. I’ve only had them on holidays. British people often eat comfort food as it’s often wet or cold out.

If you ever visit the UK... you will be delighted by the local fish and chip shop... where a guy stands behind a giant fryer cooking as he serves freshly made foods... displayed in a glass cabinet above the fryer, almost anything cooked in batter and a few local specialities/pies etc. the whole experience is kind of like going into someone's kitchen and having them make you something they are really good at. Top tip, seaside fish & chips are the best... the closer they are to a fishing port the better... and there is something about the salty sea air. Next try the local bakery (everyone raves about Greggs but although they are good it is a big national chain) the local bakery will make all the standard items and a few local specialities too... cakes and pastries, buns and pies. Most now serve hot pies and pasties/sausage rolls etc. for the lunch time shoppers.

When visiting the US I had fish and chips at Revere Beach near Boston. In New England they sometimes call the fish scrod which apparently is a general term for white fish. Fish and chips is usually eaten with salt and vinegar.

Not sure if they did this or not as it wasn't shown in the video, but mostly fish and chips will have salt and malt vinegar lavishly spread all over it. Usually it's fish and chips with some kind of side dish, mainly mushy peas, garden peas, baked beans, curry sauce (I'm northern 😂) The batter on the fish is supposedly to protect the fish during frying and was originally not eaten, but it's bloody lovely, so most of us will destroy it without a second thought.

There is a town in America where pasties are a feature of the local diet and food culture. It's in Minnesota or Wisconsin - somewhere West of Illinois. The tin mining industry was very big there at one time and quite a number of tin miners from Cornwall in England settled there. They brought with them a liking for and a knowledge of how to make Cornish pasties and the local tradition for this unusual food item remains to this day.

Fish and chips is generally Cod or Haddock, but Skate, Rock Salmon also know as Huss, and Plaice is also offered in some areas. The ‘bread’ covering you mention is batter, a flour, egg and water mixture used to coat the fish before frying. Beer batter is also available, with beer being substituted for some of the water resulting in a more aerated batter. The ‘goo in the cup’ is Mushy Peas, peas cooked and allowed to become soft I.e. mushy. Originally more common in the North of England, but now available country wide.

I lived on the West Coast in the 70s, and a food chain named Long John Silver was quite popular then, serving ... fish and chips. They even had "newsprint" printed to wrap the food in. Traditionally take away fish and chips in Britain were wrapped in old newspapers so this was an attempt to inject some authenticity. Love your humour and presentations Tyler. 👍

Shepherds pie - made with baby sheep - lambs. Cottage pie - made from minced beef. Both topped with mash potato and usually a cheese top. Both can be greatly enhanced with Worcestershire sauce.

Some of the bigger supermarkets have cafes inside them, you can full English breakfast, cooked meals, cakes, Tea, Coffee, etc.....

I'm Welsh so I my fave roast is roast lamb its sooooo delicious especially with mint sauce try it ! And the fish in fish & chips is usually cod or haddock and usually in batter not bread

Its batter on the fish, its made from flour and milk and a pinch of salt and whisked into a pouring consistency Dip the fish in let the excess run off then fry in hot oil.delicious with mushy peas chips with salt and vinegar. Pasties are made from pastry not bread. If you want bread then you could have bread pudding its kind of like a fruit cake but from bread or bread and butter pudding or one of the many types of bread we have. Try toad in the hole, sausages cooked in a yorkshire pudding. Ham and pease pudding in a stottie, type of bread. So many lovely foods and each area has its own particular speciality. Lob scouse, stotties, yorkshire pud, dorset apple cake, too many to list, but all great.

Hilarious knife and fork action 😂 It’s like they’ve never used them before.

0:54 I've already died a little inside with the pronunciation of Pasty. Also, it's not bread. It's a pastry that's crimped and has various fillings on the inside. It's a baked good from Cornwall

Shepherds Pie contains minced( ground) lamb and Cottage Pie is the same but with minced beef instead. Lamb is very popular in Europe and has a distinctive taste, delicious ! If you see Shepherd’s Pie in the US it will normally contain Beef instead of Lamb though. US “English” pubs serve Fish and Chips but won’t be as authentic. Cod and Haddock are the most common used in British shops and they’re dunked in Batter and then fried along with the chips. You can serve this meal with fresh peas or with the large, mashed up peas, mushy peas.

Watched you for possibly 12 months and I bloody love your clips. So funny. I’m British and just find it so funny how much every nationality have their own habits which sound odd to others. You’re enthusiastic about British culture and it’s good to hear. -A convenience store with tea. - has me cracked-up. 😂😂😂😂😂 you often sound shocked. Like -the back room with tea is fine.

The thing about most iconic British dishes is that they are generally peasant foods refined over centuries. Or more recent dishes, from food rationing during WWII. And it is about making the most out of the limited ingredients you have. Or something different out of the same ingredients, that you've had day in and day out. Because that all you've got. And you don't want to eat slop for the nth day in a row. Compared to America, that's a relative young country, with most of it history having an abundance. And the cuisine reflects that.

For the Tea and Milk question, that depends on how you are making the tea, if it's in a tea pot with leaves you'd put the milk in the cup first, if you're making it in the cup or mug with a teabag you'd put the teabag in first and let it infuse before adding the milk. It's usually either Cod or Haddock you get with fish & Chips, the Cod is more Mid to Southern England, the Haddock is more Scotland, you can also get other types of fish depending on the chippy from the likes of Plaice, Halibut to name a couple.

Shepherds pie is minced lamb casserole covered with mash potatoes, the version made with minced beef is called cottage pie. Often foreign copies of fish & chips fail because they use a "warm water" caught fish. Traditional fish used in the UK is North Atlantic cod. Which has a hard white flesh.

In the UK we have a tradition of eating lamb that dates back to when we were massive wool exporters. Now days lamb is very expensive and mutton very hard to find, so much so that most people have never tried it. But minced lamb is the cheapest option. Here in Wales roast lamb is often eaten for Easter Sunday as something of a treat.

The usual fish in fish and chips can vary by location, especially if you're near a major fishing port. My father's shop sold Cod, Haddock, Plaice (a flatfish), and sometimes a local fish called 'Huss', which was actually a smaller Nurse Shark, similar to the dogfish. It was later removed from the menu, as it became rare due to overfishing, back in the 1970s. He could also sell 'crackling' which was a bag of the broken-off bits of batter fried along with the fish or battered sausages. It was agreed that this was for people's dogs, as it gave them a lovely shiny coat. Mostly it was the cheapest thing you could buy.

A cream tea is a scone with clotted cream and jam and a pot of tea (or coffee if you are me). We also have Afternoon Tea which is more elaborate and would include sandwiches and other savouries, scones and other sweet cakes, maybe little trifles or fruit fools. You can have it with a hot drink or if you go to somewhere upmarket you might have Prosecco or champagne with it instead. It will be served to you on a tiered serving platter.

Shepherds look after lambs and sheep. So a shepherds pie wouldn't be made with beef would it?

In the north west we have a meal called potato hash, you can make it yourself? Its made of 4 ingredients 1,potatoes chopped up,2, carrots sliced, 3, onions cut up & last but not least 4, (meat) either steak & kidney, minced beef or the best and perfect meat for this dish "corned beef" mix with water and bring to the boil and cook for 30 minutes👍

Clotted cream is made by gently heating cream until it thickens until its the texture of slightly softened butter. It bloody delicious.

You can definitely get fish and chips in America. I visited San Fransisco and had it in a restaurant on one of the piers (was really good - but no option for curry sauce or mushy peas). I'm not American but potentially places which are near the coast are inclined to offer this as an option. Clam chowder was also very popular in that area... not something I've ever seen in the UK but I don't doubt it gets sold in some restaurants here.

Shepherd's Pie does exist in the US, I remember eating it in a restaurant in Salem, MA. Of course it was made with beef, so was officially a Cottage Pie, not a Shepherd's Pie.

Fish and chips. The most widely used fish is cod. Depends where you are. Halibut, hake, plaice (a flatfish) rock eel (a member of the shark family. A number of sea fish can be used. The fish is usually covered in a batter made various ways. You can also get the fish breadcrumbed too.

I like your comment about ‘comfort food’. There is a reason for that. Most traditional British food was originally designed for agricultural workers. Now imagine you’ve spent all day doing hard physical work outside in a cold, damp environment - you need something hot, filling, and full of calories when you get home in the evening…

The first time I had Black Pudding I was 5 years old, and after I had eaten it my dad told me what it was made from. My mum thought it might have put me off but it never did. 45 years later and I’m still eating it.

US people regularly refer to things as being "breaded" when there's no breadcrumbs anywhere near the dish. McD's fish fillet is breaded. Fish in fish and chips is battered. Pasties are covered in pastry, not bread. Btw, with scones and clotted cream, in Devon it's cream first and then jam, whereas in Cornwall it's jam first. I find the latter easier to eat. They taste the same.

As someone who works in a chippy (fish and chip shop) I can confirm the stereotype that brits love fish and chips. And most chippies use cod and/or haddock for their fishes. The trick for batter is, you dip the whole thing in batter and then lay it in the fryer for about 3 minutes then it’s ready

We have pies, casseroles, and meat and veg dishes, and all originate from different parts of the UK but can be found almost anywhere in traditional English eating places like Pubs, we also have Gastropubs which are more geared towards food first and drink second and tend to be fancier and cost more. but to the main point their is two "Potato Pies" which is where the potatoes are mashed and put on top of a meat and veg filler and baked 1 - Shepards Pie = Where the meant is from Sheep, 2 - Cottage Pie = Where the meat is from beaf, they both look similar but the flavours can be richer or stronger on the cottage pie, and milder on the Shepards pie, with way perfect wholesome food, as you say comfort food, filling, and differently a go to for the colder months.

Shephard's pie is a very traditional English dish made from lamb mince with peas, onions and carrots. Cottage pie is very similar but instead of lamb it is made with beef. Either of these two I would generally have with beans although some prefer peas or a pea & carrot mix. The traditional fish and chips is generally either cod or haddock that has been deep fried in batter. They are usually served with chips (what you would call steak fries) and there are a choice of accompaniments you can chose from. These come in the form of mushy peas (peas that have been mashed up and seasoned, they include vinegar in the mix), beans, gravy and (my personal favourite) curry sauce. Many people chose to simply have their fish and chips with salt and malt vinegar while others also like to have ketchup, mustard or brown sauce for dipping the chips into. Another traditional sauce you might see served with fish is tartar sauce - a condiment made of mayonnaise, chopped pickles and relish, caper, and herbs such as tarragon and dill.

Watching Tyler genuinely enjoying things like this day in and day out makes it hard to believe Ryan is his brother. Tyler should get some recipes and try and make some of this food. AND GET A P.O. BOX!

Sheppards pie. They look after sheep so it's lamb. Cottage pie is beef. The fish is poached in the batter and is really delicate and a nice light batter is fantastic.

The cream is clotted cream and is the best cream you can ever eat. I have only ever seen clotted cream sold in the UK. The fish is dipped in batter (made from flour and beer or soda water) and then fried. Also, we always put salt and vinegar on our chips. We have sheep everywhere in the countryside double the amount of sheep to cows. We eat a lot of lamb here.

I just had a meltdown watching him cut his fish

Love your videos bro. Nice to hear some positivity around our food and culture 👌

With fish & chips you normally ad salt and vinegar, cod , haddock, Huss, and plaice are common in many fish and chip shops although I do see skate more often now, as for shepherds pie you can do a version with beef but then it becomes a cottage pie.

We have Tea, or Cream Tea, or Afternoon Tea, or High Tea. Tea = exactly that. Just the drink Tea Cream Tea = Tea + Scones w/Clotted Cream and Jam Clotted Cream = Heavy cream that has been churned to the consistency of butter Jam = Jelly in the USA Afternoon Tea = Tea + Cream Tea + sandwiches + selection of sweet pastries High Tea = Afternoon Tea + selection of savoury pastries

Shepherd pie is made with lamb cottage pie with beef

Shepherds pie! clues in the name, Lamb, carrot and onion covered with mash potato, hot pot is made with beef covered with thin sliced potato, both cooked in the oven till golden brown.

I live in Scotland and the “full Scottish “ breakfast is square sausage, bacon, egg, beans, tomatoes, hash browns, haggis, fried bread and a cuppa. It’s a whole meal and should last you until a pie and a pint about 1sh, then fish and chips for your evening meal

When we go out for a meal my husband rates the venue by their soup (must be homemade) I rate it by the steak and kidney pie, which also must be homemade.

It's like a WARZONE!!! With the Jam first, then cream or cream first then jam 🤤👍😂😂🤣🤣

You're learning Tyler 😊 Yes, it's 'comfort food' here too, in fact comfort food is our specialty ❤

That's why it's called 'Shepherd's Pie'. It's made with minced lamb. with usually carrots and peas. toped by mashed potato then baked to golden brown. Sometimes cheddar cheese is grated on top. Not to be confused with 'Cottage Pie'. where beef mince is used instead of lamb.

The cream is clotted cream, made with what you Yanks call heavy cream which is heated until it thickens then chilled...delicious

I don’t know why I keep watching this guys videos because the level of frustration he causes is off the scale. He watches videos showing the same things but seems to have no memory of it whatsoever and continuously gets the wrong end of the stick.

I think that as the weather in the UK is cold during the winter and the evenings dark by 5pm, and earlier, we made lovely meat dishes (meat pies, cottage pies - this can have grated cheese on top - etc). Served with extra gravy (dark brown) if needed, potatoes if needed and green vegetables (eg. spring greens, broccoli, green beans, kale etc). Lovely and warming, comfort food. And the smell is heavenly after a full days work. Nowadays the food can be eaten any time of the year.

I have relatives in Ireland whose Chip shop is merged with a Surf?fishing tackle shop! and in the nearby village there are 2 family pubs which double up a convenience stores ,1 is a Petrol station too.They both date back before the 1940's .Mainland Britain started doing the same thing during the 1970's albeit quietly

The quality of a shepherds pie depends on the quality of the shepherd. Fresh is best, but canned or frozen will do. :D

Another classic British dish is fish pie, a mixture of fish and seafood (e.g. prawns) in a creamy sauce under a mashed potato crust. So it's a bit like a fishy equivalent of shepherd's pie.

The cream is fresh thickened cream usually called clotted cream made in Cornwall and Devon.

it’s called clotted cream and it is wonderful with many things.

Right, let's get this cream tea business sorted. In the UK, "tea" means not simply the drink, but a meal in the late afternoon when you need a cup of tea and something to eat. A cream tea means that the something to eat comes with cream. That cream could be whipped cream like you might have on any cake or dessert, or clotted cream, which is very thick rich cream that is produced by a particular process from whole milk. You then need some scones, which are rather similar to a US muffin, and some jam, traditionally strawberry, remembering that jam is British English for what Americans call jelly. Slice your scone horizontally and spread the cut surface with jam and cream. Which order you do this depends on whether you follow the Cornish or Devon practice. Neither is wrong but jam first is definitely less messy.

Saw this video before without a reaction. But is anyone gonna mention how this guy is holding his cutlery like a toddler? Ive heard yanks cant use knife and fork correctly like most people. But this always shocks me. Hes like a neanderthal that's brought into the future. 🤔

Just started to watch your videos for a few weeks now, and they are great. I'm watching all the way from the UK and keep with the awesome content.

It is said that for cream tea, in Devon you put the cream on first, in Cornwall the jam first. These are the two counties from which most clotted cream originates and where all the tea shops offer this. I lived in both counties for a short time and I put cream on first even though Cornwall is my favourite county in England. Clotted cream is a thick, unsweetened cream. I have only had it from the West Country (Devon/Cornwall) and in Turkey where they spread kaymak (cream, actually clotted cream) on bread or on a sort of doughnut-type-dough pastry for breakfast with honey or perhaps jam. In a tourist area there might be a tea room in another shop, but it is not common.

Good grief. Never had lamb, never heard of haddock, what is cream? WTF.

For once in your life Tyler try actually listening to what's being said. Several times we were told its clotted cream

Yea is consumed every day,. A “cream Tea” is an afternoon snack of tea with scones, clotted cream and jam, sometimes sandwiches and other cakes too

Shepards pie is made with lamb mince (ground meat) and cottage pie is made with beef mince. But other than the type of meat they are pretty much the same thing.

You have to try lamb. It's the best meat ever and very popular across the whole of the British isles.

Yes you also need to try a fishcake with chips and ketchup or on a butty 😂

The picture on the british pubs signs dates back to the time when most of british could not read, the sign shows them what the name of the pub is

Most people don't have a cream tea every day . In a tea room it would be quite expensive . Clotted cream is cream (top of milk) . I think they heat it to give it a dense consistency .

Stop asking questions. Stop inviting comments. You have no intention of checking for answers in the comments. I don't know why I'm even bothering to post this, but I can't be the only one getting heartily sick of this ridiculous, repetitive charade. It's like bloody "Groundhog Day".

How can someone live to that age and not have lamb.

It’s Clotted cream. It a very thick cream and it’s called clotted because as it’s cooked it forms the clots; a type of yellow crust that forms on the top. It’s unique to Britain.

Shepherd, as in who looks after the sheep. Shepherds pie is made with meat from sheep. The fish is cod or haddock.

That is an awful Full English..

We normally use cod or haddock for fish n chips

Lamb is shepherds pie and beef is cottage pie both with mash potato topping. Lamb is very common in the UK.

Their is a range of fish that can be battered in the fish and ships dish, from Cod, Rock, Skate, Pollock, Plaice, Haddock, to name but a few, and some different by region of the country or access to produce. but by far the most common version of fish and chips is Cod & Chips. Also mushy peas as you would with mash potato, you mash up the peas, on their own its kind of flavourless and would not recommend for most, but if you add the appropriate amount of salt and vinegar to the chips, and when you combine the fish, with ships, and add the mushy peas on the same fork the combination is much more delightful.

Savoury and meat pies in thick pastry (like a pasty) are working men's meals, as they can be made, cooked through, then carried to work and eaten at dinner time, still warm, (if you're lucky).

Lamb dishes are very common in the UK, Shepherds Pie, Roast Lamb and Lamb Chops often on the menu. In medieval times Britain became rich by producing wool, hence lots of sheep to shear and, eventually, to eat. The fish in Fish and Chips are always sea fish. That's white fish, like cod, not an oily fish like herring. If you live in an inland state you it's likely never get fresh sea fish.

Popular over are going out for a carvery, which is a choice of various meats and a huge selection of vegetables and sauces.

I always put cream first. (Cornish clotted cream). Then jam, but place the jam on thick and don't spread it about. It looks much better.

Cod is the traditional fish in fish and chips, but nowadays there is a bigger conservation of fish stocks so its more expensive, so there are often other fish like haddock offered as an alternative or cheaper.

Lamb mince is used in Shepherd's Pie, but we also use Beef mince in Cottage Pie, Which is very similar, But for the best British meal you have to try Roast Beef and Yorkshire Pudding with all the trimmings on a Sunday, Greatest meal of the Week.

Normally if you want a cream tea or afternoon tea, you have to go to a cafe or a specific tea room. Both are rarely paired with a little local shop but you might find afternoon tea on the menu at a cafe in a big supermarket like Tesco or Asda. The Endless Adventure is a really good channel for UK travel videos, especially from a US perspective. So are The Magic Geekdom and Midwest Americans. I do recommend all 3 and I’m looking forward to videos when Natasha and Debbie from The Natasha & Debbie show visit.

Fish and Chips fish is typically either cod, haddock, pollock or sometimes coley. You can even have some fancier fish that costs a little more, but are more flavourful such as plaice, which is my favourite.

12:05 He is cutting that fish like a toddler! 😂

go to Florida, in The Orlando area in particular you'll find it in many outlets catering for the tourists. It's not bread but batter. Usually Cod, Haddock and Plaice.

A "cream tea" is a sub-set of "afternoon tea". They differ in that the latter also has dainty sandwiches, usually with the crusts cut off (often with delicate fillings to match, such as smoked salmon, cucumber, egg and mustard cress etc.) and slices of cake or small, rather fancy individual cakes. The items for afternoon tea are often presented on a cake stand which consists of two or three medium-sized plates, often of bone china, one above the other, and suspended above each other by a metal stem topped with a handle. Each plate often has a lace-like circular paper liner, commonly called a "doily" on which the food is displayed. The bottom plate might have the sandwiches, the middle plate the scones with the clotted cream and strawberry or raspberry jam and the top plate the cake slices or cakes. A cream tea might come on a cake stand but not usually. The tea itself is "normal" black Indian tea e.g. Assam, Darjeeling, Earl Grey or "English breakfast tea". The tea is always made in a teapot and bone china cups and saucers are not uncommon. In the highest class establishments, the tea will be made with loose-leaf tea and not teabags and a tea strainer,(a small filter akin to a sieve) may be provided to avoid any loose tea leaves being poured into the cup. A small pot of boiling water may also be provided to top up the teapot empties and as the tea becomes stronger during the meal. Afternoon tea at "swanky" hotels can be very expensive. Tea rooms, cafes and even pubswill sometimes have it on their menus.

They had afternoon tea, but the tea drink can be drunk throughout the day on its own or with anything even fish and chips They were staying in a village which is smaller than a town and lamb is why it's called shepherd pie and I just put salt and vinegar on my fish and chips

Shepherds Pie is made with Minced Lamb (shepherds look after sheep and they have lambs). Cottage Pie is very similar and is made with Minced Beef. Fish and Chips is popular here and the most popular options are Cod and Haddock (personally I'm not a fan of haddock). I try and eat this on a Friday with Mushy Peas and Tartare Sauce. The man in the video had Cod. A Cornish Pasty has protected status since 2011 and can only be made in Cornwall and it consists of a pastry normally filled with beef skirt, onion, diced potato and swede (rutabaga). Can be eaten on the go or in cafeterias. It was originally made as a meal for Cornish Miners and there is a hand held part to it which is thick pastry. It's very tasty actually. Afternoon Tea was something introduced in Victorian times and is a treat to most. It consists of some finger sandwiches, some sweet treats the scones, and a pot of fresh tea. In essence this would keep you full till dinner. A cream tea is an afternoon tea consisting of tea, scones, clotted cream (or whipped cream), and strawberry jam. Cream teas are sold in tea rooms throughout England, especially Devon and Cornwall. There are regional variations as to how a cream tea should preferably be eaten. The Devonian, or Devonshire, method is to split the scone in two, cover each half with clotted cream, and then add strawberry jam on top. The Devon method is also commonly used in neighbouring counties. With the Cornish method, the warm 'split' or a 'scone' is first split in two, then spread with strawberry jam, and finally topped with a spoonful of clotted cream. This method is also used elsewhere, notably in London
