UK vs USA | Desserts

[dwtardisallonsy]

The most embarrassing day of my career as a US lecturing at a UK university was the day I tripped and fell and my jello salad oozed out of my handbag (no pockets because American women aren’t allowed to wear functional clothing) and onto my dress and all of my students pointed and laughed and called me a freaky American who reeked of lime jello and horseradish

I'm pretty sure I gave up worrying about my pocketful of jello salad during the pandemic. Times change...

[evandebuck]

I thought this was a joke. But then I put my hand into my pockets and the jello was there man. I am freaking out

[cthulucalamari]

As an American who's never heard of Jello salad, I can confirm we all love it.

[Knight_Dragon]

Learning these are a satire on how us Americans act has amped my enjoyment of these tenfold

Next up, depression pie versus beef wellington

Fair review, no bias, just what I like to see.

This man is a true hero of the British people. Just before she slipped away, I fully believe HM the Queen shed a single tear of joy knowing he would one day reveal the truth 🇬🇧

My grandmother used to make green jello “salad” at every holiday. It was horrific and traumatic, and I had to eat it because it was the only “vegetable” on the table. And yes, I am american

[LargeHearteater]

as an American, I can conform we always have a pocket full of jello salad also dont listen to the fake Americans telling you they dont eat this masterpiece with every meal

[babypuppy]

I love this guy😭 I used to not understand the joke but now I do😭

[Daniel-skwr]

As an american i have to say, we do NOT care handfuls of this in our pockets. We carry special bags to keep it in! Our pockets are for guns not food

[Oxygen_Breather.]

In elementary school, I always kept jello salad in my socks because my pockets were always full of countless amounts of rocks.

[Frog-Zray]

To every American in these comments section whining about this.

HE'S LITERALLY JUST DOING WHAT AMERICANS DO ALL THE TIME.

Pick out the most disgusting meals in British culture and compare them to the best America has to offer.

[Demon-qcye]

Watching Americans not understand that he’s just doing the exact same thing they do, and completely losing their shit over it, is hilarious.

[borin]

The comments from Americans make the joke better, good job!

[erichitchens]

As an American, this had me cackling, one of your funniest ones yet lmao

[flossyphp]

The USA bias against British food is based on opinions formed during WW2 when there was rationing. Tbh ouside of grits, I don't know any dishes that are American.

[cloakedcarp]

Some people don’t keep their pocketful of jello anymore, I still put it in my shirt pocket and I have a bottle of soy sauce to enhance the flavor but that isn’t common anymore

[albannach]

Hey...this was my childhood and can be found on tables today in Idaho and Utah. Well played..that reaction is real.
