21 British Food Dishes That Are Just Too Messed Up To Even Consider Trying If You're Not From The UK

by Daphnie

British people are known for a lot of different things from their amazing-sounding accents, elegant vibes, and great food. It's no secret that British people and American people are quite different for many different reasons.

I mean there are differences in how we dress, what we like to eat, how we speak, and overall what we do for hobbies. Usually, Americans are the ones being made fun of for the crazy or weird, fattening, and just over-the-top things that they eat, but this time the roles are reversed.

We're going to go through some of the oddest, gross, and just overall weird food combinations that British people love. Some of these sound absolutely disgusting and some of them really worry me because clearly, people like to eat these things.

It's not like there aren't unusual, bizarre, or barely edible dishes in the USA either! But these seem so atrocious.

If you love looking at what other people like to eat or maybe you just would like some inspiration for new meals, then you're probably going to love this post. You can incorporate a little bit of Britain into your home by trying one of these recipes or dressing some of these foods how they do in Britain.

Let's dive in and check out these weird British foods.

1. Chip Butties

Yep, this is exactly what it looks like. Basically a chip, or french fry, sandwich.

15. Clotted cream

Clotted cream sounds disgusting but it's actually very good. It's a cream product that's sort of a mixture of whipped cream and butter if we had to describe it.

16. Fried bread is essential

This is exactly what it sounds like.

18. Crisp sandwich

A chip sandwich isn't far off from what some Americans do. A lot of them add chips to their sandwich, but not sure about eating just a chip sandwich.

You always dunk as much as you can until it's soggy.

After seeing some of these odd foods, I actually could see myself trying some of them. I mean, some are just plain weird and I'm not sure why anyone would eat it, but some British people might be onto something with their other ideas.
