This American’s delight at Brits’ sharing crisps in the pub is today’s loveliest thing
Here’s a rather lovely thing to take the edge off everything else going right now.
It’s an American called David Escobedo – ‘From Los Angeles, doing my PhD in Chester’ – sharing his love (and amazement) at the British habit of sharing a packet of crisps in the pub.
It went viral after it was shared by @BeardedGenius on Twitter and it’s a fab watch.
Love how charmed this fella is by the torn open packet of crisps in a pub for everyone to share pic.twitter.com/blauOxxlOH

Wonderful stuff (and you can find David on TikTok here and on Twitter over here.).
I love this, and I also love that the multiple camera angles and cuts make it seem like he's been thinking about this for many hours across many different locations. "which there usually is not very many crisps"!

A flag and a crown mean nothing to me, this is the stuff I feel patriotic about.

Instant honorary dual citizenship must be awarded to this absolute king amongst men. https://t.co/jJOdzF4EsS

Always carry the bags in your mouth like an apex predator if you have two ore more pints as well to save a trip back.

It's a beautiful thing. People who buy crisps in the pub and don't share should be asked to leave. https://t.co/VRpOx9F4q3

I want to adopt this man. Also who knew eating crisps was so anthropologically interesting. I feel like this guy could get a thesis from pub etiquette https://t.co/dnvRgHJs0c
