A Comm for Historymemes

Okay, it ain't for everyone.

But, you never have peas and mashed potatoes, then have them get mixed up with some gravy? It's delicious, even if the peas are canned.

Chips/fries just add extra texture to the basic idea, with a little of that brown goodness frying causes.

Shit, I could pan roast some peas, make some nice brown gravy, and do up some camp fries, throw it down and nobody would complain once they ate some. It's the execution in the pic that makes it look yucky. Not saying the texture of what's in the pic is ideal, but it's not going to be worse than smashed potatoes and gravy. The peas being mushy is a thing that not everyone likes, but it isn't going to be a problem with the fries giving some tooth to it.

I'd at least try the version in the pic because the basic flavor combo is a sure bet.

Ngl it looks pungent in that pic but that food is hella tasty. I lived a couple years in the UK and learnt to love it.

(Yes my french mother would guillotine me for saying this).

Fyi Paul Revere didn't even do the his whole ride, he got cold and went home.

Instead a iirc 16yr old girl completed her whole ride and gets basically zero credit, like she got a statue but no actual note in any regular school history book.

So…. UK nachos?

I feel like the fries make this worse.

Come on, you're far worse than the Brits when it comes to grammar. The American Revolution did not save you from a missing comma.

If this shit ever becomes mandatory I will take up arms.

I've never mixed chips with peas, but it does sound good. Mashed potatoes with peas are great, so there's no reason chips with peas would be a lesser dish.

Think of it as Poutine with peas I guess. So thanks French cooking! I guess.

does look a bit shit

You're going to throw that at the opposing team, right? ... Right?

Those are the mushiest and brightest green peas I have ever seen. 🤢 Shit looks like lumpy, artificial guacamole dip.

I was in the UK for six days and if I learnt one thing there it was that the British like their food soggy and mushy.

Those look more like french fries than real chips.

But honestly, don't knock it til you've tried it. That's some pretty tasty food, and better than a number of dishes we have in America.

This is what I look forward to, is it?

(Actually, I'd eat it...)
