Life eating out food and drink
A Brit trolled Americans for eating fish and chips with their hands and ended up battered – 17 saltiest takedowns
Time now to return to the cultural chasm which divides Britain from America which is almost as wide – in fact, precisely as wide, as the Atlantic. Which is to say, very wide indeed.
This time the topic is food, specifically fish and chips, and even more specifically, how you are supposed to eat them.
Because American Allison Kuch created a minor diplomatic incident by coming to London and eating fish and chips … with her hands.

Except it’s fair to say not everyone agreed – well, it is Twitter – and when we say not everyone, we mean hardly anyone. Let the transatlantic food fight begin!

I had a Dutch boss who ate bananas with a knife and fork and that was definitely sociopath territory
