Why do the British insist on serving Chinese food with chips? Are the rice and noodles not enough carbs?

They must always remind the Irish of the famine

Lots of American Chinese joints have fries too.

>>21859455
nobody in america gets fries with their chinese food, we get enough fries everywhere else
>>
because fries are yummy

>Are the rice and noodles not enough carbs?
It depends, there are many factors, when will their next meal be, are they going to be doing a high intensity activity like riding a bike, and so on, if you are asking if it is enough carbohydrate for the rest of their life. Then obviously no.

It's true. I once bought a Greyhound bus ticket from LA to Tijuana and they gave me a side of fries

The answer to any question about British cuisine is simple:
Yummy wummies for me tummy.
Munchy wunchies.
Lovely jubblies.
Ooh err don't mind if I do
Loves me a good bosh of scran, I do
Chimchimcheree
Basically they are chimney sweeping loveable idiots
>>
>>21859441
It's because a lot of fish and chips joints got bought by Chinese and Indian people
They want to sell Chinese and Indian food, but Brits won't buy shit from them unless it comes with fries
>>

>Why do the British insist on serving Chinese food with chips?
Only the places that serve mainly poors do that.
>>
>>21859740
Interesting. That's how it is in the US. Generally only Chinese restaurants in the ghetto have fries. They go along with the Chinese chicken wings. Also the cheapest Chinese buffets often have fries and pizza and nuggies.
>>
why are Americans terrified of carbs
>>
Yeah it's funny, even though many US Chinese takeout places have stuff like hot wings, french fries, etc no one orders it except basketball people. Whereas with you guys it seems to actually sell better than the quote unquote "Chinese" dishes.
>>
>why do people who enjoy chips eat them with foreign cuisine
Gee, it's a real mystery, you fucking retard.

Literally every country in the world does this by the way. In Asia people have rice as a side dish to burgers or fried chicken. In Ethiopia they serve spaghetti in tomato sauce on an injera.

Carbs provide energy. Eating lots of carbs and being sedentary makes you fat.

>>21859441
A lot of British food is working class breakfast for manual labor in shit weather. There's no need to eat like this anymore.
>>
>>21859455
False
>>
>>21859455
Yeah they often have some American options in case not everyone in a group is into Asian food. But they don't serve the fries on top of the Asian dishes like that.

The only time fries are ever seen in the same proximity as Chinese food is in buffets. Which naturally will add whatever extras will get you filled up on carbs.

That is not chicken you colossal retard

Why do they put "curry sauce" on every single meal they eat?
>>
>>21859485
in Asia, the employees literally wouldn't give a fuck if you did this.

What's with us whities and our seething?

We really need to practice 無為
>>
>>21859441
Oy! Carbs? Chips are potatoes, and noodles are from pasta. Rice is from Asia.

Carbs...hahhaha

What's wrong? Can't handle a lil' heat?
British people love spice, unlike the American'ts
>>
>>21859455
I've only seen that on the kids menu.
>>
>>21864177
it goes on chips/anything you order from a Chinese takeaway.

>>21864262

Most 'Merkins love spice, as long as it is Extra Mild.

Nobody eats hamburgers with a side of rice you idiot.
>>
>>21864643
Loco moco
>>
>>21864647
That's a beef patty, not a hamburger. Don't play stupid. No ones eating a Big Mac with a side of rice.
>>
>>21864179
No, they get twice as mad and do half as much about it, opting instead to bitch on twitter like they do about people in airplane seats in front of them. Truly a cowardly people afraid to stand up for themselves in public settings.
>>
>>21859441
it's genius
we do that in puerto rico too
vegetable fried rice or pork fried rice
with lo mein noodles and fried chicken (breasts, drums, etc) + french fries on top
drown it in ketchup or soy/steak sauce really good!
>>
Every Chinese restaurant offers this as an option, but basically none of them (certainly none I've ever seen) do this by default.
It's on the menu so that if you're taking your fussy eater child with you you can get them something you know they'll eat. It has simple seasoning and is vegan and gluten-free and whatever else, so anyone can eat it.

Do you recline? Be honest.
>>
>>21859441
the polish do the same shit. its good tho
>>
>>21866290
All the regular British people foodtubers always get chips when they get a choyknees and they pile them on the plate next to the chicken balls and curry chicken and fried rice. I think you're lying to save face for your country men
>>
>>21866393
Could it be that being someone who eats fast food online for a living relies on outrageous behaviour for clicks? No. Surely not.
>>
>>21866400
No. That's why I said regular British people. I'm talking about tiny channels with a few thousand subs who make mukbang videos for fun.
>>
>>21859441
>Why do the British insist on serving Chinese food with chips? Are the rice and noodles not enough carbs?
There are children who want a kids menu. They have black beans and rice, and sweet plantains on chinese menus in Miami, too.
>>
>>21866511
The entire premise of mukbang is outrageous behaviour for clicks.
>>
>>21866526
Not at all. Especially not for tiny channels that make no money. They're just regular people eating their regular meals on camera. Even some of the biggest mukbangers don't make a spectacle. Reviewbrah doesn't do anything crazy at all and he's huge.

The chips were there first, when the chinese immigrants first came they took over chip shops and applied chinese cuisine to the chip shop format.
You have to understand when you think about how bad british food is, that we were the first to industrialise. That means tinned food and potato. Orwel said "We may find in the long run that tinned food is a deadlier weapon than the machine gun".
As a brit however i maintain we have the best food in the world quality wise, we may be retarded now due to the industrialisation in our relationship with cuisine, but our beef, our lamb, our cheese, eggs, veg, whatever it is, is world class in quality. We prefer simple meals and if thats a good spud fried with some chinese slop on top then thats good enough for me.
(however i try not to eat the chinese slop because im allergic to MSG)
>>
>>21859524
it's absurd to me that you can get arrested in bongland for calling someone a paki but calling chinese chinks is apparently fine
>>
>>21866695
Find a single example of someone getting arrested for calling someone else a paki. You can't because its never happened.
