Better than some of the rejoinders I was dreading, I'll admit.

I think America can be genuinely proud of its barbecue/grilling tradition. Food's relatively less unhealthy and it's inseparable from its association with positive and informal social gatherings.

Fish and chips are actually quite common I'd say, you can find them in restaurants. And this being America, of course it's typically "beer battered." Good stuff.

Hasn't permeated the culture like it has in NZ tho. It's the most popular takeaway food here. You'd be hard pressed to find a town that doesn't have a fish and chips store.

 

The fish is always fresh too. Benefits of always being close to the sea.

161.1* games to go, Tele.

You're almost starting to sound like a Giants fan with all this pessimism. Must be those NorCal roots of yours.

We actually have those. They're only in malls and stuff though. Most fish and chips places here are owner-owned and operated.

You guys have 3 championships in the last 7 years. Your pessimism is amusing and trivial. 🤔😡
