My beloved Scottish grandfather sailed over in a boat as a boy around 1910 or so. Rest of my family is German or Hillbilly.

Anyway he used to eat brown beans on toast. Except I can not find the proper brown beans here. No idea where he got them, I think they were Heinz.

Only English meal I would like. Sorry, no disrespect intended.

There's an old joke where in Heaven the cooks are Italian, the policemen are English, the mechanics are German, the lovers are French and the bankers are Swiss - whereas in Hell the cooks are English, the policemen are German, the mechanics are French, the lovers are Swiss and the bankers are Italian.

I have been looking for the old joke for ten years about heaven and hell! I laugh every time I think of it! I must say that I like Scottish eggs, banger and mash and shepherds pie though..

Scottish eggs look terrible? Never had them. What do they taste like?

Bangers and mash and shepherds pie are both potatoes with such a poverty level of meat they prolly count as vegan. There edible with enough hot sauce, which makes them distinctly no longer British. :ROFLMAO:

New to me.
I suppose it means Maine, Vermont and New Hampshire.

Are CT, MA and RI Lower New England? Prolly are.

CT is really just a suburb of NY. My wife is from Danbury and reminds me of that periodically. Maybe she just means Fairfield county?

I will try to describe the taste of Scottish eggs, but it would be like deciding to change oil based on the color of the oil on a dipstick…

Scottish eggs taste like hard boiled eggs where one wonders if someone forgot to peel the shell off and coated it with butter infused ground beef that has some crunchy bits of cheese mixed in. Texture is odd, but the flavor is great.

Well, if I get the chance to try one I will. I will admit I am still skeptical, but will try about anything once.

Thanks for the description!

There was a place in Bellingham. "NY Deli sammiches....." JUST LIKE NY, THE BEST, LOADED WITH MEAT, ETC..........Well the owner was not even from NY (Korea), went there once...........yeah.............no.

I've had a couple good sammies along the west coast where I was born and have lived for 66 years, but not many.
